American company Amazon introduced AmazonBasics Microwave - a microwave oven, which can be controlled with the help of a voice assistant Alexa. The microwave is synchronized with the smart Amazon Echo column and, in addition to enabling it as per the user's request, also can order grains for popcorn when they end, and she herself sets the desired mode of operation.

As TechCrunch informs, using the column you can ask the voice assistant to turn on the microwave for a certain time or indicate which product needs to be warmed up, in which case the oven will set up the settings on its own.

The gadget is also equipped with the Ask button Alexa, with which you can control the microwave remotely without calling the helper's name. Also, the microwave is equipped with a special button for making popcorn, and using the application on a mobile phone, you can sign a "subscription" for its delivery: in the event that Alexa realizes that popcorn ends, she will order more.

The cost of a microwave oven is $ 60.

Now the device is available for pre-order on the company's website, and the official sale will be on November 14.

Also, during the presentation, Amazon introduced Echo Input (Alexa in the box for connecting to third-party speakers), updated Echo Plus and Echo Dot, smart plugs, wall clock with Bluetooth and a number of other devices.

Recall, in late August, the stock price Amazon set a record for the first time in history, exceeding $ 2,000 per share.
