FWIW, we have an LG stove, refrigerator, and washer, and none is sensitive to RF nor radiates any.  The tower is about 25 feet from the house, and it is shunt fed on 80 and 160. I have amplifiers. 

73,

BUT, we bought it last August when we started the complete Reno-gut-job on this house and it sat in the box for months. Lowe’s will not return it and I don’t even want to try and explain why and how it is ‘broken’ to them.

All have some sort of touch interface but the oven is the only affected appliance. I would welcome the dishwasher starting and doing the dishes on their own!  HI HI
