Happy@Home Approved - It Works!

Discover what we found in new friendly technologies for your home --wherever that might be -- that keep you safe, connected and dignified.

Tested by Engineers

Our rigorous in-lab testing means great performance with no worries. In fact, since 1993, UCLA engineering graduate Susan Estrada has lead Aldea’s technology efforts.

We spend a lot of time testing and retesting the technologies we recommend.
  • We want to understand how they function and if they perform as the companies claim.
  • We also want to know if they are too hard to use or not intuitive or require excessive support.
Yes, we have tested technologies that are not up to snuff. Sometimes, we work with the companies to improve them and sometimes we just send them back.

Happy@Home is 21st Century Living


As we age, we don’t have time to waste on stuff that doesn’t work right. Our 89-year-old friend Bob says, “I don’t even buy green bananas anymore.” Many technologies have matured and can act as servants to our needs and desires. Today’s technologies are helpmates sought by seniors to happily and independently live out their lives in the homes they know and love – without it costing them an arm and a leg.
