Wait... This revealed an old memory... Wasn't this actually a sketch on the original animaniacs?

Was surprised to see this here. But yes absolutely, they are expensive don't get me wrong. But they are worth it. Their shit just works, i have their washer and heat pump dryer, dishwasher, and CX1 canister vacuum. Each are the best version of that thing I've ever used. Dishwasher will clean anything no rinse/soak needed even for baked on pasta or cheese, vacuum is powerful but also shockingly quiet, dryer sips power (700w avg load) but dries everything just fine.

Had em for the years now, i am NOT gentle with the vacuum i drag it outside to clean the car and other various things it's not really for, toss it around use it as a footstool sometimes and it shows no signs of the wear. You get what you pay for with them

Numatic has a whole family. Hetty, Charles, George.

They buy a computer monitor "made in Britain" which immediately catches on fire. They grab the fire extinguisher but it doesn't spray anything. He looks and it also has a "made in Britain" sticker. Once he looks at... The fire extinguisher catches on fire.

The whole scene is solid gold, but the bit with the "made in Britain" is around 0:35.

EDIT: And in case you're wondering what's the number he was typing when trying to call emergency services, check this scene out.

That isn't my experience. Bought two, one six years ago, one three years ago, both still work perfectly. Sold one of them recently for half what I paid for it.

First I’ve heard of Miele. I'll look into it, but the reason why I got Dysons in the first place was constantly hearing others rave about them.

Been through this.

After an allergy test revealed that I had a dust allergy I bought a Dyson to replace our cheap generic vacuum cleaner and thought it was the bee's knees. Then the power switch went. And it would clog the power head constantly. Then, at about 10 years old it packed it in completely when the motor died.

Replaced that with a Miele which hasn't missed a beat. So much so we bought a second when we moved into our current house (one for upstairs, one for downstairs, I'm lazy). In terms of suction they are the same or better, but ergonomically they shit all over the Dyson. Not as purple though.

I ended up getting a used LG dishwasher and it work really well, but during kitchen renovations I think dust got into the motor, it got noisy, ran being noisy for a couple year and it got rid of it, but it still worked. My parent LG fridge broke multiple times under warranty, never ran right and was related to the lg linear compressor lawsuit. I have a GE dishwasher now that seems okay, but the cycle is over 3hr!

Call there asses back and tell them to fix your shit properly.

You don't!? How else do you get cool jazz?

I refrigerate my cabbage, does jazz cabbage need to be refrigerated?

A 40 years old fridge can easily average 200W more than a new one. Depends on the details of how well it's conserved and how good it was to begin with. That would be some $15 a month more.

You always have to evaluate those things.

I am sorry to hear that. My local landfill has no fucks to give. You pay to drop off, and if you head over to the appliances section, you can grab what you need. Last time I was there I saw that a builder had dumped a tankless gass water heater with all the lines still attached. I grabbed all the copper and flex water lines and used them to plumb my new electric tankless water heater. Total cost? $2 for the recycling dump I had just made.
