No I Did NOT Buy A Smart Oven

Bought a new oven last week. I did not buy a 'smart oven'. I bought a mid-range, dumb oven like I've always used. Why ?

1) security
2) obsolescence
3) why would I want a smart oven ? Are you mad ?
4) the features of smart ovens are LAUGHABLE

A whitegoods' company specialisation is profit maximisation by producing low cost, high volume mass market items. Where is the motivation for high quality technology with security, longevity ?

My new oven has a digital timer on the front. That is the pinnacle of 20 years of technology progress in whitegoods.
