  A proper older washing machine doesn’t have a motherboard.

      And there’s my point. A couch is still a couch, smart features or not.

        And a washing machine is still a washing machine, smart features or not. Every washing machine is going to have a controller board that can break.

    I guess you’ll need to go back at least 40 years. Even so, if the belt or motor breaks then the washing machine doesn’t work either.

      Well sure, but my original point was that a “smart” couch still functions perfectly fine as a couch with or without its “smart” features.
