Electronic House, CE Pro’s sister publication targeting smart home consumers, announces the winners of 2018 Products of the Year Awards recognizing the best technologies, products, and services for the smart home.
“Our annual Products of the Year contest exemplifies the amazing diversity of smart home technology, and this year’s submissions and winners are some of the most innovative products and systems available to consumers looking for ways to smarten up their homes,” says Electronic House editor Lisa Montgomery.
“Selecting the best entry for several smart home categories wasn’t easy based on the high-quality level of all the products entered, but in the end, the judging panel was able to come to a decision and is pleased with the chosen winners.”
All entries were judged on creativity, innovation, functionality, aesthetics, and lifestyle benefits to the homeowner, by an unbiased panel made up of several industry leaders, along with the editors of CE Pro and ElectronicHouse.com.
