Fk SmartHomes TBH, things shouldn´t be so complex just so you can be a tiny bit more lazy.
They don’t even do anything - simple is better.
If you actually want a smart fridge then be aware that when the display breaks, they will charge you the price of a new fridge to replace it.
I would consider the broken display to be a feature tho.
Certain things don’t need a computer screen in them. Refrigerators are one, sewing machines are another.
I would totally use that one Singer sewing machine that could hook up to a GameBoy to control the stitching. Other than that though, hard agree
Yeah I don’t need to watch TV on my fridge, I just need it to cool shit
But can it run doom?
…what does the display show even?
What’s in your fridge, as well helpful reminders to Shop™ Now™ to keep your Fridge SaaS™ running smoothly
That sounds like you’re paying to have ads in your own home.
The worst part is the silly over priced fridges you buy probably won’t even last 10 years anymore. Sure they’re more efficient, but if you have to replace it every 10-15 years, is it really worth it? I’d sooner have a slightly less efficient fridge that I know will last than one that can show me ads and look fancy.
“More efficient”
- has french doors,
- has water dispenser,
- has two seperate frozen zones (ice and freezer)
- has main freezer on bottom
No way this thing is anywhere near efficent.
Those things make it more inefficient?
Yeah this is the epitome of inefficient lol
Appliances these days are absolute junk. Nothing last more then like 7-10 years. My parents have a stainless steel kitchen aid fridge thats 20+ years old and works like a charm and a second shitty white fridge thats at least 15 years old by now. My aunt has gone through 2 samsung fridges in 10 years though
Ya I just went through all that bullshit last year. my old fridge (maybe 15yrs) crapped out and the repair guy told me flat out that they typically don’t repair stuff like that anymore. Manufacturers make it intentionally difficult to obtain parts and even if you can get them, chances are they’ll crap out before too long. I ended up getting a new Danby. I hope it proves me wrong but…
“buy fridge premium to open it without ads”
Yikes! And $4000 is the sale price. It’s $4800 regularly…
How efficient is it? For that price I would expect top values. But seeing those 2 doors (for whatever reason someone wants to waste space like that): I doubt it.
how does two doors make it less space efficient
if anything, the freezer is more space efficient since there’s no drawer to take up space
More doors = more gaskets = more seams = more heat loss = less energy efficent
I think they mean power efficient
I could see my daugther doing this
But don’t you want to connect to your fridge via a smart app?!
Protip: Avoid Samsung when buying appliances
Granted, this is just an anecdote, but I have several Samsung appliances; oven/stove, dishwasher, microwave, televisions, smart phone(okay, I guess those are technically an electronic), and I haven’t had any issues with them. They’ve served me well, even if I haven’t been the kindest to them.
I guess the point I’m trying to make is “your mileage may vary.”
I got one Samsung TV for free for one reason or another – it never really worked properly because all its spyware shit kept tripping up on my custom DNS server.
I have a Samsung TV as well, and it’s spamming ARP requests to every device in my home.
There is no good reason to connect any tv to the internet. External devices, those can be connected. But to me the tv is just a big dumb screen.
I disagree; I find it useful to have apps like YouTube on my TV, it’s handy not having to plug in another device to watch content.
Why? I am genuinely curious.
They have a reputation for not lasting very long. I’ve already been avoiding them for that reason, so when I see a $4000 Samsung fridge I’m like lol nope
And LG - they are both hot garbage.
Their TVs are great, had 1 for more than 10 years and a second going on 6 and we’re really happy both.
Can’t speak for anything else though.
Because people keep their fridges too long. They need to be able to remote brick them when they want you to buy a new one.
That’s a lot of money for a fancy box of cold.
4700 before the sale? I wonder why they are having a hard time moving them… /s
So hot
Agreed. It should say “costs”.
I’ll show myself out now.
it seems like it happens enough to be an acceptable alternate way of saying the cost of something; I see it a lot, including (in fact mostly) by native speakers
In my experience/opinion, native English speakers have a different set of grammatical errors compared to non-natives. Obviously there is an overlap.
I think the idea of a smart fridge is not necessarily a bad one. However charging $3600 extra for a screen and a couple of cameras is ridiculous.
Probably not cool because they’re not plugged in
Yeah it doesn’t seem to be running. It’s just standing there.
