Glad I bought a non-smart washer and dryer. I've yet to encounter any situation in life where I thought, "too bad my appliance doesn't have Internet". Not once ever.
I think my oven/stove can be connected. I have never tried because I don’t see the need to preheat my oven when I am not home.
Considering how security is often forgotten on smart devices, having an oven connected to the internet is pretty scary...
