It's supposed to be a meme, but it's solid advice for any appliance. They used to have lifetime guarantees. Now they upload AI garbage and lock features behind paywalls. Then, they'll randomly break down one week after the one year warranty.

I wish people would stop buying the "smart" appliances. You can still get normal ones that last, but they're getting harder to find, and more expensive

I got a new Whirlpool fridge, not a smart one, when I moved into my house less than a year ago. The water filter has already demanded it be changed.

Thankfully these filters aren't RFID tagged like some, so I could just reset the timer.
