#2Sounds like a great fire hazard what if someone forget something next to the oven like a newspaper.

#3Connecting an oven to the internet seems like an unimaginably bad idea. Even used as advertised this is horrible. Saying "Pre-heat your oven before you get home!" as if a running oven in an empty house isn't just asking to burn the place down.

#6Who'd-a thunk that attaching an internet connection to a heating element could be a bad idea?
In all seriousness, my (full-size) oven takes 7 minutes to pre-heat. From the much smaller size of this thing, I can only assume it takes less time. What sort of life do you have to lead where being able to tap a button This is a toy, plain and simple. Solution looking for a problem.

Exactly. I like to get Papa Murphy's pizza (bake at home) for pizza night, and my routine is:
1. Get home 2. Preheat oven 3. Unwrap pizza 4. Set table (or use restroom) 5. Put pizza in oven
I'm rarely waiting for my oven to heat up, and of the times I am, a smart oven wouldn't help.

#8The only feature I'd like on my oven, is if an electric hob doesn't have a pan on it for 5-10 minutes.. turn itself off.. On my oven there is no indicator on the hob, I've left it on once and almost injured myself, and my other half has left it on for about 5 hours while we watched films in the other room, I only noticed it because of the heat radiating from it
