I don’t switch my cooker off at the wall, I like to have the correct time on the clock.

I always turn the microwave off when not in use, the clock is never right. I also turn the oven off as I use it about once a fortnight, so the clock is never right. Everything else gets switched off at wall at bedtime.

I turn everything off , well obviously not the freezer or fridge , but I dither about the tv
If I turn it off at the wall it’s on the same circuit as the Sky box and the internet , so I leave it , unless I’m going away for holiday

All of our appliances are switched off at the wall when not in use.

My microwave is in my laundry, it gets used once a week maximum. It is turned off at the wall so the clock is never going to be correct.

It’s been there for 13 years with no problems so far.

I have five electric clocks on different kitchen appliances. Does anyone else switch off thingss at the wall? Love my microwave but nor that clock, so I switch it off when not using it, do wonder if it's detrimental to the thing though. Leaving things running when you only use them perhaps once a day seems so wasteful or am I being mean.?
