Re:New US Tariffs are Anti-Maker and Will Encourage Offshoring by oldcynic on Tuesday June 19, 2018 @11:54AM (#17347810)
Shit hardware too as you find out when they need repair. Components are combined for cheaper manufacture, so don't expect to easily replace a defrost heater element without a whole bunch of other components in the block and a regas at the same time.

Unfortunately most makers are at this game now. No surprise that it promotes a lot more replacements when you can't change the £20 broken part but have to get some £250 thing that includes lots else.
