Most irritating home appliance

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

This is a companion thread to Pam's thread on your least favorite chore.

We recently got a new dryer and it buzzes when the laundry is dry. If you don't immediately take the laundry out, it'll buzz again after, I think, 10 minutes or so. I absolutely abhor that buzzer!!! Especially when I'm doing something much more important like PT.

So, what are some of your home appliances that have irritating aspects to them?

My WASHER! Sometimes I catch it trying to go out the back door. It shakes the whole trailor boy I can't wait til my house gets built and its half way there. My washer is so loud if its on I can't watch tv or be on the phone....its so annoying I could throw it out on to the road and let a big truck hit it...

Hmmm.... I really don't know!!
Probably the icemaker, because when the ice drops the dogs think it's someone!

Aaah yes! Gone are the days (before microwaves) when you could say "Gee, I was in a rush this morning and forgot to thaw something out for dinner. We'll just have to eat out!"

I vote for the dryer - because it only knows how to dry clothes - it doesn't know how to fold them and put them away.

all my appliances hate me...they break when i try to use them them work when people try to fix them for me

I'll have to say the dryer...it's ancient, second hand (but knock on wood it's been working here for 15 years) but the thing has an annoying squeak while the drum is turning. It has seen umpteenbazziliion loads of laundry enough to wear the enamel off in spots inside. Soooo if I leave a load of white laundry in it and it gets rust stains!

We got an ASKO and it does that. I love the little light that comes on inside when I open the door, but that infernal buzz drives me nuts!

I don't like the oven because I hate cleaning it.

The only thing I've noticed that I suppose is good about that durn buzzer is that it does make me get up and finish the laundry. Sometimes it would sit in a heap in the dryer for days before I'd take it out. Now I take it out a lot earlier just to be rid of that annoying buzzer!

Well everything in my home beeps, the washing machine, the fridge,the microwave and the dishwasher, when they have all finished their cycle, good for the fridge though, if someone leaves the door open it beeps, can be a bit fustrating with everything beeping at once lol oh yes and then the mobile phones beep as well, and there are four of them here.
