Nailed it.

We are so used to shitty 'everythings' that we have an entire generation that have no idea that a refrigerator or a washer/dryer was expected to be reliable for over 20 years.

Had a Maytag dryer from the mid- 1970's? That shit was f'ing bulletproof.

1980's Ford Bronco? We called them 'battlewagons'.

My kids have never known me to buy something and not replaced it inside of 3 years (except for our Chevy). #[0]

in the comments it would be useful to know if quality products.

i have

-a 11 year old subaru impreza that is near perfect in terms of reliability and durability

-a 8 year old mac mini that is a reliable home server

-7 year old zojirushi water heater and rice cooker

-dewalt tools are still wonderful

-klein tools are quality

-whirlpool gas drying machines

there are still good things out there and those companies will lead us through fiat decline

Our Zoji died after 3 or 4 years. I loved that thing and was sad to see it die.

I have a massive All American pressure cooker. No gasket required. That thing will absolutely last longer that me. No moving parts. Just a huge chunk of aluminum.
