Only works well with ge products. Resolution of screen is pretty poor quality. Unable to cast to device, so you use it you have to type everything on a touch screen
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We appreciate your feedback. It is extremely important to us. We're going to pass along your comments about the resolution and cast support over to our product team. This way we can continue improving on our models going forward.
The kitchen family hub seems to be a great commodity looking at it, but the actual results are very deceiving if you go to download an app you get a message that there is another app blocking it? My Mic doesn’t work at all? I can hear a click but No sounds are recognized and when you go into accessibility and try to turn on speak or talk back or switch access you get that same message so you can’t use your zoom or answer in coming call’s because no one can hear you!! A total waste of an enormous amount of money as an consumer I am appalled that these type of issues exist in products and items of such a high cost GE most do better in accommodating consumers who trust them enough to invest in their products

Hello- We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and your feedback. We are happy to help! Please review the following link to make sure you have the updates needed.
With the Kitchen Hub, you can download apps from the Google Play store. If the app you are using does not look like you expect it to, it is most likely because the developer did not design it to scale to a large screen size, like the Kitchen Hub. If some apps appear sideways (landscape), make sure you have updated to the latest Kitchen Hub Operating System.
We hope this helps! If you have any questions in the future you can reach out to our GE Answer Center at 1-800-626-2000. If you feel service is needed, Please reach out to GE Consumer Service at 1-800-432-2737. Thank you! Joyce@GEA
Sometimes certain apps cannot be read due to a change in scale. I cannot 'manually' control smart lights on this hub, but can on my cell phone, due to some lack of a scale update. Linking to other smart appliances isn't as easy as it should be. Too many Smart options and don't discover which is best for this set up until i suddenly can't use it efficiently, then try another app just to have the same thing happen again. pretty frustrating.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is a new innovative product that integrates with today's digital life, offering options to use while in the kitchen. (and everyone likes to hang there). Install was easy and the screen is large enough to observe from almost any place in my kitchen. I like to stream music and enjoy bluetoothing music to larger speakers. The ability to put together a recipe on screen, trumps pulling out cookbooks. Was a pleasurable purchase.
The Kitchen Hub is a very fun and helpful device added to our Kitchen. My wife loves all of the crazy capabilities that this tablet has and the exhaust hood is fantastic! We really enjoy using this product and the recipes are unlimited.
