I have a smart thermostat, lights and sensors everywhere and absolutely love it. They’re all automated (along with things like heaters, fans) to adjust themselves on variables like indoor/outdoor temperature, which door(s) is open, is the sun up or down, etc. It’s actually pretty fantastic (in my opinion).
But I agree that devices like laundry machines maybe don’t need any of these features.
