For me, itβll be computers and electronics. And travel. But Iβm also frugal so I like to search for deals.
I am also interested in BIFL electronics like fridges, microwave ovens, washing machines etc, but I realise that I might not find such appliances in the coming future any more.
What about you?
In my case this mainly applies to tools - replacing cheaper worn out ones with something more durable, with the intent of BIFL.
Iβm a bit frugal myself but usually postpone getting new and replacement products for a while, sometimes indefinitely π .
Iβve found small fridges seem to last forever, despite not being too energy efficient and ice builds up very easily due to them lacking the usual βbells and whistlesβ
Indeed. I donβt want any extras with my appliances; when it comes to fridges, my only wish is to have the freezer at the bottom. I donβt want an ice-maker, but I want to fridge to last long.
Unfortunately it seems like refrigerators are the appliance that is just known to die the fastest now. I searched high and low for a good warranty but even the higher end fridges donβt get them these days. And the Samsung 10 year warranty is a bandaid for the lawsuits theyβre facing.
Youβve clearly done your research cause the first thing to die in a fridge is always the ice maker π
