The WePlenish Java has officially received integration with [Amazon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-amazon-dash-cart) and is now proudly being touted as the world's first smart container. A smart container is simply a device that senses when items are running low on inventory and automatically orders more for you. In the case of the WePlenish Java, the ordering is done through Amazon and is controlled via a smartphone app.

The container itself looks like a basic plastic bin that is designed to sit neatly on a kitchen countertop. In its current state, the WePlenish Java is only compatible with about 90 pre-approved items on Amazon, with the majority of items being disposable coffee pods or other coffee-related items like packets of creamers and sweeteners. The WePlenish Java's ordering feature is currently restricted to Amazon [Prime](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transformers-x-scoobydoo) subscribers, but Amazon is offering a special price of $20 for those who back the gadget on [Kickstarter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/water-dispensers1).
