tcr! · Sep 21, 2018 at 12:57 pm

AmazonBasics Microwave

AmazonBasics Microwave | Alexa Enabled - Amazon.com

A compact countertop microwave that connects to your Echo device to make cooking easier.

  • Now it’s easier to defrost peas, make popcorn, cook potatoes, and reheat rice. Quick-cook voice presets and a simplified keypad let you just ask Alexa to start microwaving.
  • Auto Popcorn Replenishment can automatically reorder popcorn when you run low, enabled by Amazon Dash Replenishment technology.
  • Compact size saves counter space, plus 10 power levels, a kitchen timer, a child lock, and a turntable.
  • Alexa is always getting smarter and adding new presets, features, and skills.

Peeps, the future is now.

Considering the number of times I’ve heard Siri and Alexa react to things that weren’t directed at them, this seems problematic.

She tells me fairly often, “I’m sorry I don’t know what went wrong.” This apology also comes unprovoked.

They really should have picked a more unusual combination of sounds for the activation word. “Flizblorp”. “Gzanbo”. “Jikladoon”.

I’m still hoping for Leopold as in “Leopold, turn on the terminator, oh Leopold!”

However, I do think that “Jikladoon, what shall be the weather this day?” has a nice feel to it.
