Question 1

Since you have to stand there to put popcorn or whatever in the microwave, why does it need to be voice controlled?

Accepted Answer

To actually answer the question, you can minimize the number of trips you take.  Lets say you're with a group and have enough popcorn now but know you'll want more halfway through your movie.... When you take the last bag out, put another in and go enjoy the movie... when you're ready for it tell Alexa and save yourself that extra trip to push the button. Simply go grab it when its ready.    Another more likely situation would be a frozen food that needs 90 sec defrost then 40-50 seconds normal cooking.  You can start and finish this whole process without returning to your microwave several times.  Or when warming something with cheese. Where running it the full duration will end up in boiling cheese but cold food. You can run partial times without returning

Question 2

Will it work with amazon 4K fire stick?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the fire stick has Alexa built in.  Just press the microphone button and use any of the microwave voice commands.  Works great just as if you were using Echo Dot, Show, Flex etc.

Question 4

Does it stop my 6 year old from randomly running it w Alexa ?

Accepted Answer

Love this Question i'd be more worried about alexa running it randomly on her own just don't set it up that should stop Alexa from being able to randomly start microwave or you can attempt to set it up for your voice only and or use a different network not sure that would work you do need to set it up so don't it's not like you pay extra for the voice control just don't use set up alexa personally I think alexa is evil she love's to make me yell at her lol.
