The AirPods Pro "could have been easily made repairable with minimal effort."

Sounds like you’re using stuff made 10 years ago. Too bad stuff TODAY isn’t made like it was 10 years ago.

Well, who could say that their appliances lasted 10 years except someone who has owned them 10+ years? Also that's the EXACT same thing I heard when I bought them to replace my 20+ year old set lol

Appliances are expensive but there's lots of info out there to help making your decision on what to buy. I spent a bit extra for my fridge because the model below it had bad reviews

UPDATE: I went to get the models because I'm talking them up and I actually purchased them in 2014 so I'm a bit fat liar when I said 10 years, sorry. They're all GE slate kitchen appliances and an LG washer/dryer. I have issues with the fridge but they're not mechanical - turns out I just hate freezer drawers and internal water filters.
