    I’m never buying a “smart” appliance for my home if I can help it.

    None of these need this shit. Give me basic ass buttons. I just need my fridge to be cold, make ice, and spit out water. That’s as smart as I want.

    None of these things need a wifi connection.

    This is the old man hill I will die on.

      I’m all in favor of smart appliances… as long as they don’t connect to the Internet. Give me a local HomeAssistant integration. That way, I can check what’s in my refrigerator from my bed without worrying about it showing me ads.

        If I really wanted something like that, I’d just buy a dumb fridge and rig up a camera inside of it.

          I’d be worried about either compromising the insulation or having to charge my fridge camera. Remember, this is me going to great lengths to be lazy.

        I do, but the fridge has colder filtered water.

        I didn’t buy this fridge, mind you.

        But I used to just have a filtered jug in the fridge, the tap is fine but it’s nice to have very cold water when you want it.

      Yeah, the same applies to wives. She just needs to be hot, make dinners and swallow rather than spitting out. That’s as smart as I want.
