Not limited to TVs. Appliance repair in general has been replaced with disposable appliances.
Human rights violations in countries like China is to blame for reducing the value of skilled labor.
- mikepurvis 6y agoIt's true, and a huge shame, particularly as it's driven appliances to be made with parts not designed to last beyond a 10 year lifespan. That said, it's been interesting to witness the recent rise in YouTube repair guides coupled with online parts stores. Obviously not for everyone, but I've had good results repairing two different washing machines, a stove, a coffee grinder, my hot tub, a laptop, a video game controller, etc. For a lot of those I would have felt completely overwhelmed and not known where to start without a video tutorial.
