But then again, how many years could it be operational when depending on an app.

- michaelt 8y agoI once had a really good 40-year-old washing machine at a place I rented. Later, when I needed a washing machine of my own I looked up that top-quality brand and discovered in the intervening time they'd been brought by one of the bottom-quality brands, replaced their entire product lineup, moved their manufacturing abroad, and most likely replaced every employee too.

There's a whole subreddit devoted to it, /r/buyitforlife.[1] I guess that's not much of a claim, since there's a subreddit for everything, but this one is kinda neat. :) That said, I think what a lot of people take issue with on Dyson devices is the extreme price premium which isn't really required most the time to achieve the advertised level of quality. 1: https://www.reddit.com/r/BuyItForLife/ https://www.reddit.com/r/BuyItForLife/
