Why does anyone need a “smart” refrigerator? For that matter why does anyone want one? Why does anyone want or need a car that has an electronics operator manual at least twice as thick as the OM for the rest of the vehicle? All these trinkets are just asking for trouble.

Well, I really meant ones that have electronics that control temps & switch to other minor functions, such as dispensing water instead of ice, ice cubes or crushed ice, and changing temps in both freezer & frig compartments.

Actual smart frigs are not something anyone really needs, but some people are addicted to gadgets. 😋

After I posted, I regretted using the term "smart". I knew it would draw some comment at some point, and it wasn't really what I was talking about anyway. My mistake for using the term. 🙂
