Ok,

So is it worth while investing extra in a Connected Oven?

Yes. Otherwise it's just a very pretty but expensive cupboard.

I have the Siemens connected oven. Comes in useful about once a month, I think it’s great. Would not buy one without now.

Someone explain what and why? I have programmable commercial ovens at work but that's a whole different thing.

So you don't have to get off your arse to pre-heat the oven.

The issue I have with any white / brown goods being "connected" is the obsolescence of the app that controls it.

That, and I wouldn't expect white good manufacturers to be any good at security. Look at what has happened with Yale lately.

They come in at 2-300 quid more (bosch do anyway).

I'm thinking for the price of the whole kitchen it will be worthwhile.

Crazy thing is it's probably no more 20-30 quid of programmable circuit board like the home thermostats....

Deserves more recognition than it got.
