A friend has a washing machine where you can put all your stuff in, schedule it to finish at [time you're back from work] so you can immediately hang it up to dry. That ones wifi connected.
Maybe that also works without Internet but I've only seen that feature on those connected to the Internet.
My 10 year old machine can do that. No need for internet. Just set an end time. I would think basically every washing machine could do that unless you get the cheapest model around?
I feel like every washing machine I've used in my conscious lifetime has had an end timer.
On the Uber budget end it's not an option.
And while I haven't been shopping for one, the few times a glanced inside the home center over the last year, they all were WiFi connected.
Even my living room TV, if I don't hook it up to WiFi, has an annoying blinking light asking you to hook it up.
It's an industry problem, not a consumption problem.
