Miele for me

Husband: Do you want the washing machine to talk to you?

Me: No!

Husband: Do you want it connected to Alexa?

Me: You mean you can play music on the washing machine? (You can't.)

Husband: You can tell it to start when you're not there.

Under what conditions would I want to start a washing machine when I'm not there? When I'm driving down the motorway and suddenly remember I put a load in - but didn't press Start?

I just want a machine to wash my clothes. It's doing that now so I'm happy.

A bit concerned that there's talk of explosions in the manual, but did like this warning.

I'm with you, Liz! I just want things to do their damn job. Who needs all those stupid add-ons?

My tumble dryer talks to me, but I don't take any notice of it.
The warning about checking for pets in the drum is important. Years ago, one of our cats died in the tumble dryer because no-one realised he had got in it. I never leave the doors to laundry machines open.

I commented. Your machine ate it.

I like being able to control our furnace via the app, but I can't see the use of it for laundry.
