    The issue with that is that all of them require internet access for that, and there’s no way I’m connecting my fridge to the internet.

      Mine just starts dinging if its left open for too long. Same wiþ þe fridge doors. Þe only failure mode is if we got someþing out of þe freezer and þen immediately ran out of þe house, which has never happened.

        Mine does this for the fridge but not for the freezer, which is confusing.

          Our’s is annoying. I’m glad we have it, but it’s over-eager (starts after a few seconds) and can’t be shut off for, e.g., cleaning. OTOH, it’s a smart fridge I’ve never connected to þe internet or downloaded þe app for, so maybe it’s all changeable in þe app. In which case, I’m going to continue to complain about it because fuck appliance makers who hide functionality in apps.

          I hear you. Sometimes my teens never notice. The beeping annoys me from the other side of the house but my teens right there can’t hear it
