Kitchen technology has come a long way, but one staunch advocate for innovative appliances is none other than Gwyneth Paltrow. As an ambassador for Monogram Appliances, Paltrow, who experiments with all things lifestyle with her wellness brand, Goop, is extending her adventurous spirit to the culinary realm.
Recently, she showed off her smart oven and we were enthralled not only by its sleek look but also by its unique features, which in our opinion are a must-have for any smart home.
“As the weather gets warmer, I gravitate towards simple, refreshing dishes like this Striped Bass with Gremolata,” she wrote in the caption. “My Monogram Appliances Hearth Oven elevates the entire cooking experience and makes every use a pleasure.”

The hearth oven connects to Wi-Fi, allowing users to control settings from a smart device, and also features LCD controls with simple presets. In the video, Paltrow can be seen taking advantage of these features, selecting the whitefish option for striped bass from the touch screen, adding a natural element to an otherwise sleek appliance.
“Smart appliances are the perfect choice for anyone wanting to create a modern, yet highly functional space.” Home & Garden Editor Jennifer Ebert: “Gwyneth Paltrow's oven is as good as it gets for its functionality – it's sleek and sophisticated looking.”
Calling the smart home movement a “design trend” may seem like an unfair label, given the desire (and sometimes need) for these appliances is never going away, but there's no denying that investing in smart home capabilities is one of the most fashionable things we can do for our homes — and, naturally, the kitchen is the perfect place to take the first step.
Paltrow partnered with Monogram in 2022 and currently serves as an ambassador for the luxury brand, showcasing her favorite home appliances on her social media pages.
“The heart of our home has always been the kitchen,” Paltrow said in a statement in 2023. “The kitchen is where we cook weekend brunch for our extended family and where we socialize with our kids after a long day. Thanks to Monogram, we were able to find a kitchen that is both practical and beautiful, that fits seamlessly into the aesthetic of our home.”
Additional features of the Monogram Hearth oven include compatibility with Amazon Alexa and Google Home, an integrated ventilation system, and an electric heating zone for a wood or coal oven burning effect.
For those looking for an appliance that offers traditional functionality in a futuristic model, Paltrow's oven could be a great option.
