>have to buy a replacement part for a kitchen appliance>it's incredibly overpriced for what it is>still decide to buy original to not have any problem or because compatible aftermarket spares are not available>what you receive is cleary lower quality compared to the component orginally used at the factoryhow the fuck is this even legal
>>22124239Get a job and buy a new appliance. I hate poor people.
>>22124245child hands typed this, get ready for back to school kid
>>22124239How old is the appliance? It’s possible they may have lowered quality since it was bought.Also it’s crazy how expensive original manufacturer replacement refrigerator shelves are
>>22124245i like fixing thingsbut this is usually the better option
>>22124245you hatred is better spent elsewheree.g. beating up your spouse (because your spouse is forever fictive)
>>22124239When I fix stuff I buy Chinese shit for a fraction of the OEM cost and it works exactly the same because it comes from the same factory made by the same people.
>>22125054i did this with a weber gas grill and the ignition gasholes were a good 2+ mm off causing delays and flareups while lighting
>>22125103Those damn Chinese gasholes really put a chink in things.
>>22124239This is why I am so excited about consumer 3D printing. Imagine every little knob and valve can be created by you.
>>22125315My mom created my little knob.
>>22124245Are you a woman? You sound like a woman
>>22125153Can probably be salvaged and fixed by just cutting the screw hole and shifting it to the side, but I doubt thw average normie is going to notice that or put in the effort before just blowing up
>>22126336The average normie would just throw the whole thing away and buy a new one.
>>22125103Deserved for buying a gas grill desu
>>22126439Taste the meat not the heat
>>22126439I've since fixed it, I like it and use it very often, much more than my old charcoal grill
>>22124239Didn't you get the memo? If something breaks, you buy a new one.
