I want a thermostat in my shower, so I don't have to fiddle and guess every time I get in.

Saw them in Japan, haven't seen them in the US.

Would you want one to act as a breadbox and have it load up the bread slices for you with a push of a button, while you're still in bed?

There must not be enough demand for shower comfort here. Cool idea though.

A dishwasher with a completely stainless steel interior, including the racks. The racks not being stainless and rusting after a few years pisses me the fuck off.

A refrigerator with an icemaker that is completely sealed off from the other compartments of the freezer to stop the ice from absorbing bad odors.

A toaster with programmable memory settings for different bread items.

A sealed digital thermometer for cooking that is dishwasher safe.

I'm just fine with what I have in the kitchen. It's the bathroom where I would like more substantial technology.

Edit: That is, if I could swap out my electric range for gas. I prefer cooking with gas, but that's not anything that hasn't been available for centuries.

Our deep fryer just broke. Again. We've gone through half a dozen in 10 years. Why can't they be made to last? And why do none of them have a removable heating element that isn't attached to the temperature control thingee for easy cleaning?

waring is connected to Hobart who makes restaurant equipment.  And the heater element is removable from the oil.    I only plan to use it for fried okra and onions or other veg dipped in a cornmeal and beer batter.  I call it southern tempura.  So I might opt for the mini at $60.

If you get a deep fryer, cover shit around it with tinfoil when you use it in case of splattering. Over time the fryer will cause a build up of nasty goo, and that sucks.

Thoughts on heavy consumption of deep fried foods aside, the only thing the high number of broken fryers means is that Joe needs a higher quality deep-fryer.
A department store model is not going to hold up as well as the higher end home products or smaller commercial units would.

From other posts, I gather that Joe's figured this out, and isn't looking for the next model in the Sunday sales pages of the local newspaper.

aside from the occasional deep-fried hand cut o-rings, fries & chicken the wife cooks up (usually 2-3 times during the frozen months....in the garage...keeps the smell out the house), she will pan-fry , let's say, boneless chicken, cut up into strips, w/ a cracker-crumb (frosted flakes, believe it or not, are pretty fuckin' good as a crunchy chicken coating), dipped in egg...salt, pepper,sugar, oregano......key health word>>>>fried in OLIVE OIL.....

When you cook in olive oil you are technically sauteing because the smoke point of olive oil is too low for frying.

I don't own a deep fryer. The method you describe for making the chicken strips is how I do it. I use a combination of butter & olive oil, because I am a butter junkie. I'm just not going to lecture people who enjoy deep frying food, especially since I enjoy the occasional deep-fried delicacy on occasion.

When you cook in olive oil you are technically sauteing because the smoke point of olive oil is too low for frying.   

If you mix olive oil, or butter with canola or other higher temp oil, you can pan fry and get the flavor without having to worry about scorching.

Why isn't every single kitchen implement rustproof?

Every spoon, knife, pot, and otherwise metal item should have a no rust policy.

Granted, I tend to buy low grade hardware, but there is an expectation that in a kitchen setting you're not going to bother drying the can opener you rinsed off. It shouldn't rust.

So much this. I remember back around 2000, much ado being made about the "smart house." I thought at the time, "Oh, yeah--this has fail written all over it." You don't hear much about this trend anymore. Those smart houses get real dumb real fast.

At the heating plant where I used to work they installed one of those "smart" thermostats in the control room. No one could figure the thing out--including the plant's controls tech. Finally, I yanked the damn thing out and put in an old Honeywell model I had on hand.

It's totally awesome to mix the stuff into hamburgers and throw them into the smoker.

My wife throws a wad of it into the blender with a stick of butter and fruit every morning for breakfast.

Tons of uses. You'll go through five gallons quicker than you think. Get it now.

What?!  Lard, butter, and fruit?  I'm so confused.   :shock:

It also works great as a chamber lube for black powder revolvers.

I like to smear it all over my naked flesh and roll around in the sand at the beach, then come charging out of the surf draped in seaweed and beat the shit out of lifeguards.

Self-cleaning toaster (basically an ultra high heat mode that turns all the crumbs into vapor like a cremation oven).

Cleaning a toaster isn't even that much effort.   :lol:

Interesting idea though, I think people would buy that.

Besides wiping down the outside, I don't think our toaster has ever been cleaned since I got it 2 years ago.

I should check to see what's living in there.

Haha, I think you just take out the crumb tray and give the toaster a slight shake every so often and you're good.

I would like my dishwasher to put the clean dishes away for me.
And for the juicer to be self-cleaning. I don't mind dumping crumbs out of the toaster, but scrubbing fruits and veggies from the juicer is a pain in the neck. (Technically, more of a pain in the knuckles, since that's what I scrape up every time.)

Most come with a pan, usually not hard to clean, but still icky, especially if you're dealing with bagels (I don't know why their crumbs are worse than standard white bread, but wth...).

Only appliance that really needs improved in my kitchen is my wife. Started cooking healthy shit, puts dishes in the wrong cabinet. hell, she hasn't even made hot, monkey love to me on the kitchen table in over 30 years. Maybe I didn't read the instruction manual right when I got her.

Don't think you could improve on her, though.

Go to the factory that made her, and get a refurbished model.

I've had this little whirlygig chopper for like fifteen years, about the size of a gallon of paint with a big crank on top.  Best thing ever.  For peppers and onions, stuff like that. 

Those little electric ones, the size of a can of peanuts?  Suck

The whirlygig was some walmart nameless product, cost maybe nine bucks.  But its got large indestructible parts, and rinses right out no problem.

I just saw the stupidest design decision yet in an appliance.

(http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/3220/invv.jpg)

This in an inlet valve for a refrigerator. It has 2 solenoids that open valves to send water to the dispenser in the door and the icemaker.

This one has an electronic board attached to it.

There is no possible rational justification for this board.

Maybe it runs Linux.

But seriously, I've seen so much that could be done through simple relays, or mechanical switches, done with "electronics" that just don't need to be there.

Look at the miracle of the pre-microprocessor clothes washing control knob. Those things were like analog computers with more wiring going into/out of them than the Pentagon.

It turns out there is a reason for it. Apparently you can select a volume of water, say a quart, at the dispenser and it will dispense approximately a quart of water.

Id like to see improvements on the spoon. They should make the edges really sharp so you could cut with it as well as shovel food into your mouth, that way they could do away with the knife altogether. Seems like a waste to have a knife AND a spoon when you can get the job done with just one utensil.

Now if I could just figure a way around making your face look like this after you use it..........................
