Amazon loves to cook up new ways to make it easier for their customers to spend money. Their latest creation proves they’re not afraid to get a little weird.<\/p>\n

It’s called the Amazon Dash Smart Shelf<\/a>, and you can see three of them in the picture above. They’re not so much shelves are they are platforms that sit on<\/em> a shelf — or a table, desk, or other flat surface.<\/p>\n

The Dash Smart Shelf comes in the three sizes shown here. The smallest measures 7″ x 7″, the midsize 12″ x 10″ and the largest 18″ x 13″. Inside the Smart Shelf beats the heart of a Wi-Fi connected scale.<\/p>\n

Are your supplies stored in a location that doesn’t have easy access to a wall outlet? Not a problem. Amazon equipped the Shelf with a battery so that it can keep tabs on inventory no matter where it’s stashed.<\/p>\n

“Training” a Smart Shelf is a relatively simple process which you perform using the Amazon app on a smartphone or tablet. Pick the product you plan to store on the Shelf, set the starting quantity, and tell Amazon what your minimum quantity on hand is.<\/p>\n

Changes in the total weight tell the Smart Scale when it’s time to re-order. It takes care of that part of the process automatically — replenishments just show up in the familiar smiley box without anyone from purchasing ever lifting a finger.<\/p>\n

The Smart Shelf can be configured to send notifications, too, in case you don’t want an inanimate object spending the company’s money.<\/p>\n

Amazon has experimented with things that order other things before. Their first attempt, the Dash Button, had a decent run but was killed off earlier this year.<\/p>\n

The buttons were priced at just $4.99 each. The Dash Smart Shelf will likely cost a bit more, but Amazon hopes businesses will see them as a way to save money — by freeing up time for employees who currently look after office supplies to perform other tasks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
