minus-squareSaneless@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4arrow-down1·1 year agoWell, VCRs or TVs then. Microwaves. Vacuum cleaners. Lawn mowers. Plenty of expensive shit that broke every 5 years
minus-squareEssentialCoffee@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·1 year agoSounds more like someone bought cheap shit The microwave we had as a kid, my brother still uses. It’s gotta be 40 years old or more. We had tvs growing up that were 10-20 years old and I’m sure some of the newer 80s/90s tvs are still working, just aren’t used. My brother still uses the electric lawn mower my parents bought in the 90s. VCRs, well, I haven’t used one in years, so I couldn’t tell you the shape those are in. My vacuum is over ten years old.
minus-squareEhList@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·1 year agoMy first VCR was a gift in 1985. It broke three years ago. The ones we got in the mid 1990s as we bought more than one TV died faster. 1991 is still when most things were built to last and also video games consoles as a whole could be accurately seen as a “fad” by adults at the time.
