I had a client who bought a house with a Whirlpool double oven that connected to the internet, and it locked itself out because it thought the oven had been stolen.
I had to replace the control panel. It cost $1,100.
Is there some sort of epidemic of people stealing double ovens from homes? Why does a double oven need a touchscreen and a Wi-Fi connection? It even has a sensor for the ambient temperature in the kitchen.
An oven is supposed to do one thing: heat your food. That’s it. It shouldn’t be able to prepare your teenager for the SATs.
The refrigerators are truly terrible.
