Amazon has announced a bunch of new gadgets to boost up its smart automation lineup. Adding to that, the company also announced AmazonBasics Microwave and Echo Wall Clock today.

The AmazonBasics Microwave will come with dozens of quick-cook voice presets, so you can cook just by asking Alexa. Moreover, AmazonBasics Microwave will be the first gadget to use Amazon’s Alexa Connect Kit to make it a smart device. Amazon has also added a built-in Ask Alexa button to directly instruct Alexa to cook for you. Not only that, but Amazon has also added Dash Replenishment service to automatically reorder popcorn when you’re running low. The AmazonBasics Microwave is to pre-order starting today for $59.99 and will start shipping later this year.

Moving to Amazon Echo Wall Clock, it will act as an Echo companion device and comes with the Bluetooth to pair to Echo device. Amazon says the clock will help customers keep a tab on reminders, alarms and even the time easily.

Customers love timers, alarms, and reminders and Echo Wall Clock makes these features even better. Just like the AmazonBasics Microwave, the Echo Wall Clock uses Bluetooth to connect to a customer’s Echo device.

And you never have to worry about Daylight Savings with the Echo Wall Clock.
