Re: Changing the throw away culture BBC News today.
One could argue that a cheap toaster should be regarded as a disposable item, but a dishwasher or washing machine should be fixable. To an extent I have found this to be the case, with universal washing machine sump pumps and generic oven elements.
I have repaired several microwave ovens by canibilasing HV diodes, magnetrons, micro-switches etc from other makes of scrap machines.
I don't know if the Smeg and Bosh fraternity's subscribe to this generic universality, if they don't that's a good reason to avoid them.
