It would be cool if laws were made so that products must last X number of years, or the customer gets their money back. LOL That should eliminate planned obsolescence pretty damn quick!
But knowing industry, they’d pour millions into engineering products that last X number years + 1 day to skirt a law like that 🫠
My parents had a washing machine thst lasted decades and was fixed several times, until it finally was not fixable anymore. The next machine they had didn’t last much longer than warranty because it just wasn’t repairable. I’m hopeful that this sort of regulation makes machines not just last longer, but be repairable for longer.
