We just moved into a brand new house. It's shocking what appliances cost nowadays.
You're talking PC handgun prices for the basic models.
So, one week in, my wife complains, "the washing machine doesn't work"
OK, she calls the factory authorized "Maytag" repairman.
Yes, there really is one, he services Kitchen Aid, Whirlpool, etc. They're all the same with a different badge.
Since my new place is not on any GPS maps, the guy calls and asks for directions. We tell him the Stonexxxxx development. He retorts, "OK, I know where it is".
The nice gent enters our house and says "I've been here many times, I've been in almost every house, these new appliances are very finicky"
. There's some 25 houses up out of a planned 200+.
Not trying to make excuses for you receiving a bum handgun, but quality is lacking in many product areas.
BTW, there was nothing wrong with our washing machine, it was user error.
