^ this.
Really how many sit there looking at the oven waiting for the first sign of fire?
Why not leave a ceiling light on for them instead. Most lamps could be very easily knocked over by a cat.
Only time things get unplugged at my house is when there's a thunder storm. I had the unfortunate experience of replacing the majority of sensative electronics a few years agodamn lightning.
I remember when we were little, if there was a storm mum would unplug the TV areal and make us all sit on the stairs. They ran up the middle of the house.
Now I lean out the window, love em
It's just me feeing bad about them sitting in a dark house.
The overhead lights are 4 on at the same time (only one switch) whereas the lamp is an energy saving lightbulb. I'm basically stingy about electric, and try and use as little as possible.
I once left the landing light on by mistake. Surprise I got finding a plane in the morning.

so poor but funny.
Even more likely to develop a fault because most people have cheap Chinese slow cookers where every penny is saved. Ovens in general are made to a far high quality.
That's not in my agreement
If that were true they could argue that unless it was switched off at the wall then it is powered on. They'd invalidate so many claims.
Arrgh slow cooking
Its in mine and I worked with a woman whose dishwasher caught fire and the insurance company attempted to trick her into saying she was not in the house and the appliance was therefore unattended.
I am not sure what they think the average person could do with a flaming dishwasher other than run outside and call the fire brigade. They go up so quick that its unlikely you could put it out before it did major damage anyway.
