My oven requires WiFi. Fuck this gay earth.
Poast new message in this thread
Date: May 7th, 2022 6:32 PM Author: Grizzly address The initial oven from the 90s or early 00s in my kitchen is a little smaller than most ovens built today, so there were only 2 available models which would fit the dimensions cut into our counter. Both ovens were basically identical, so we just picked one. When we were evaluating them, I thought it was retarded that the ovens were WiFi enabled, and I didn’t want it, but I figured my wife could connect if she really wanted it and we didn’t have any other choice.
Well it turns out that half the features on the oven don’t even work unless you’re connected to WiFi. And in order to get connected, you have to download an app, create an account, give them your email, name, address, phone number, and share the precise location of your cell phone (I’m not kidding). It takes literally 30 minutes to get this dumb oven connected to WiFi, and it adds exactly zero value other than allowing the buttons on the touchpad to work.
I’m halfway tempted to just buy some 1950s antique and have it installed instead. This thing fucking sucks. I would honestly pay more for an oven that doesn’t come with any “smart”/WiFi capabilities. |

Date: May 7th, 2022 9:51 PM Author: charcoal lascivious gunner High end appliances are one of the most not-flame home purchases. You can get a Sub-Zero that will last 4 years, no Wi-Fi bullshit, provides superior energy efficiency, and perfect temperature. Or you buy a piece of shit box for 1/3 the cost at Home Depot. They cost $50 to make, last 7 years, and HD justifies selling it for $3,000 because it has an iPad in the door. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5103638&forum_id=2#44472118) |
|
Date: May 7th, 2022 10:00 PM Author: Grizzly address 4 years seems a little short. I’m going to assume you meant 40, since that’s the lifespan I’d like an appliance to have.
Strongly agree, though, that it is worth it to pay for quality in appliances. |
