Like microwaves which have about 30 cooking modes now and used to have a power level and a timer.
I wonder if internet of things and google analytics will show what features of appliances people actually use.

- ChrisClark 13y agoMy microwave actually crashes and reboots once in a while.
- netcan 13y agoReally!? I still don't understand why anyone would want a microwave with any controls other than a power and timer wheel. I only see downside like an accidental extra digit causing my leftover pasta to catch fire. Who designs these things?
- omilu 13y agoI love microwaves where the time is set with a dial, mine broke recently and I couldn't find another one that had a dial (why are they so hard to find?), so I settled for a conventional keypad one. To me it seems counter intuitive but the keypad is much more difficult to use, I get a little irked every time i interact with that thing.
- wmil 13y agoThe dials break easily, but they aren't a commoditized part so they're difficult to replace. Number pads are more reliable.
