I would totally agree. See it in my work too. Then you had a fridge and if something happened you ciuld usually buy A part and fix it. Now they are throw aways just like the cars I work on. They aren't built to last they are built to replace. You don't get parts you get assemblies. No joke two weeks ago I replaced an entire inner door panel on a truck because of a small broken plastic piece for the inside door handle. Could not get the door handle mechanism on it's own. Had to get the entire inner door panel.
