Industry Prospects

Although in their infancy, smart appliances are beginning to appear in Sweden. For example, the late 2014 launch of iKettle by Smarter Apps, which can be controlled via a smartphone. The launch offers consumers numerous advantages in terms of convenience and time-savings. However, iKettle retails at SEK1,300, compared with a unit price of SEK281.00 for kettles in 2014. This high pricing point is likely to be prohibitive for the majority of consumers in the early forecast period, but once price levels begin to stabilise and decrease, smart appliances such as iKettle will enjoy mass-market appeal.
