    To me, a “smart” laundry machine should just be “derrr, I can click a button on this app which turns it on!”

    Once it grabs my clothes from the basket, sorts then by colors/whites/delicates/etc, runs them through a way cycle, puts them in to dry and runs a cycle on that, then presses and folds them for me… THEN maybe I’ll consider putting it on the network.

      Maybe if it does all those things you should buy it a nice apron and see how it does in the kitchen.

        It will have an addon that binds it to your household. It comes in a form of a gold ring and costs half your money.

      It can make sense if the dryer can talk to the power meter, and only turn on if the electricity is cheap.
