Why Do Household Appliances Not Last As Long As They Used To?

When the refrigerator coils are covered in dust and the oven is caked with burnt food, it not only takes longer to clean, but the performance of the appliance itself is also affected. This means that it may not last as long as it could if it was given regular care. According to Department of Energy appliance standards, manufacturers are developing new, more efficient appliances that save consumers money on their energy bills. To ensure that appliances last longer, there needs to be changes in two main areas; the quality of new appliances and the experience of buying used appliances.

Not only do big sellers of used appliances provide a great experience, they are also on the front lines when choosing which appliances are worth reconditioning and maintaining in the system, and which ones need to go to the junkyard for recycling. A 2- to 10-year homebuyer warranty service agreement covers repair or replacement of appliances and systems, including labor and parts-related costs. Let's take a look at the data behind the reliability of modern household appliances and consider some ways in which you can protect yourself from unexpected repair and replacement costs.
