I admit I’m a sucker for gadgets however I cannot see the point of a phone app to control a Karcher pressure washer.

It's useful for "her indoors" to turn off the karcher halfway through your bike/car cleaning when she needs you inside.

You're so old school, to be on trend you need an app to cover everything you do, from brushing your teeth to wiping your bum

So what's the point of a bluetooth kettle...?

So you can switch it on from the comfort of your sitting room

That’s got to be a whole new mountain of laziness.

They call them labour saving devices, but I think you are nearer the mark, it all started with the invention of a remote control for the TV

Personally I prefer a brush, toothpaste, and Cushelle quilted.
Not at the same time though.

That was my job when I was a kid. Changing channel between Beeb 1 and 2.
I was devastated when we finally got ITV.

The kettle, definitely the most sinful.

You should not sit for more than an hour according to experts. Potential for clots.

Does bluetooth fill it as well then?

You can get TVs with remotes now?

Time for an upgrade methinks.

The one I don’t understand is Bluetooth ovens.

by definition you would need to leave food festering in the oven.

Bluetooth fridges are quite clever though. Some automatically add items to your shopping list.

You could turn it on before you come home. Either have it ready to go or the dinner cooked.

Few times I forgot to set the timer to come on and came home expecting to get a smell of casserole......

I get that but (obviously!) the food would have to be in the oven before you left.

Doesn’t sound ideal to me in terms of hygiene.

I can see the merit of turning the oven on remotely when the oven is empty. If I screw my eyes up and count backwards While thinking about it.

Remotes for tv and the likes of sound systems these days are almost essential. As well as destroying the aesthetics of the tv, they’d have to be half as big again to cater for all the buttons. Most other things are plain lazy.
