[QUOTE="Bama, post: 374623, member: 1184"] I work as a maintenance guy at a refrigerator plant. (equipment maintenance, I work on the machines that builds em) Yes, they don't last as long as they used to. But remember how much you paid for them years ago and how much you pay for them today. The cost has not went up anywhere near inflation rate. The reason is consumers will not pay for a higher end product. The conponents have come down in quality but have went up in price. The reason we are able to keep the end cost as low as it is is because we have learned to build the less costly. We now use robot and other more efficent methods. This plant employs 1500 people and last year put out 1.4 million refrigerators. Think about the cost of one 20 years ago and the cost now. Think about the cost of a car 20 years ago and now. [/QUOTE]
