    The Home Depot made a smart air conditioner.

    The new Vissani-branded air conditioners come in portable and window varieties. Like the retailer’s other connected Hubspace products, you can control them hub-free with the companion app or with voice using Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.

    Each has three modes (including a dehumidify setting) and will be available in varying sizes to cover a variety of room types.
