I do not feel bad for anyone that buys needlesly smart appliances like this and then has to deal with updates, ads, or the appliance becoming marked obsolete and suddenly being unusable.
Like, did you fr take a look a the rest of the "smart" technology ecosystem and somehow think that just wouldnt be a problem for you?? Absolute clown behavior.
20-40 bucks. Target. Goodwill. If you need a fancy appliance to feel special at least get something like an esspresso machine. I can make toast on the stovetop ffs
