CES this year was nothing like before! It was as if the products of really witty brains (and hard work) had been brought under one roof. Gadgets ranging from 3D printers, and health-oriented items to drones and AR/VR headsets, we found the most remarkable of gadgets in our whole lives. (We mean it)
Here’s a list of the 10 coolest devices we saw at the event.
1. EHang 184 by Ehang Company

Tired after an aerobics workout or managing your pool and looking for diet food? This stove is what you need, because it requires no monitoring! This stove is a very creative and an unconventional one! With a cylinder that heats up by sunlight, this stove has a solar powered grill. The cylinder takes 10 to 20 minutes for warming up to 550 degrees. The food placed inside the solar tube cooks by absorbing the heat from the cylinder. In this manner, cooking is done quickly with no chances of it being undercooked. (Definitely, something you should go for)

A grillbot perfect to clean your grill via computerbuild.de
It is time to clean the grill and you’re feeling sluggish? Well, don’t be embarrassed because we all have been there. Like spiderman to the rescue, the grillbot is here to make your life a lot more comfortable. A grill cleaning robot, shortened as grillbot, costs $129 and lasts a lifetime. (Well, almost) With three metal bristles, this robot moves around on the grill cleaning it. It has a timer, a rechargeable battery, three electric motors and an LCD alarm which allows you to leave it unsupervised. But this robot functions merely on surfaces that are lower than 200 degrees. (If this isn’t cool, I don’t know what is!)
