BUT... they're also not producing anything but junk these days so you really have no choice other than to buy an old avacado green one and stuff it in your modern kitchen...
My fridge is 15 now... and it's on its 5th ice maker unit. They just corrode and self destruct. Guess who gets to play junior appliance repair man? For the record, it never broke into a brownt chicka brownt brow while laying upside down in the bottom drawer freezer...
I had a ~18 year old dish washer, a Bosch, it got repaired so many times by me that most of the internal bits were newish (mostly bits from eBay).
Then the electronics went, I swear it was a chip that intentionally fried, most of the board logic read fine, except that one chip that had it’s number sanded off and I couldn’t find a replacement according to the circuit diagram I had. I believe it was a counter chip, designed to fry after so many cycles. I tried but couldn’t bypass it.
A replacement board was outrageously expensive, so we got a new dishwasher. That was about 4 years ago, we are on new dishwasher number 2. It’s disgusting behaviour by these companies.
Dog got a drink, face all wet ...shook off ... splattered the touchpad on the range (its in the front just above the door) - it LOCKED THE DOOR like it was going into a high temp cleaning cycle and wouldn't unlock until I threw the breaker and simultaneously pushed two buttons on the pad for 90 seconds...Took about 6 times... and if anything drips on it by mistake... same deal. What kind of a retarded are engineering these things?
Yes people ARE retarded for sure...

I know it...
Don't get me started on the range...

They definitely didn’t lear the same as us.
