    Canada please take note.

    Just been flying through refrigerators because we can no longer find a second hand older model. 5-6 years on a ~$2500/cad fridge that you can’t even get parts for. That’s fucked.

      Damn that’s really a short lifespan for a refrigerator

        No kidding. We also bought a new washer in August. Had a repair man in last week. The entire wiring harness was fried. He says it’s very common and we live in a very rural area. That appliance is basically brand new. Maytag brand.

        LG as well in North America.

        Our new washer (Aug 2024) has already been repaired once. Fried wiring harness. It’s Maytag.
