What #Belkin really need to do is honour the lifetime #warranty they give with their premium products. Is that so difficult?

op art zebra crossing. I was so taken by this I just had to stop and take its picture. I’m not sure whether the pedestrians floating across it are any safer but it does liven up the street there is no doubt. #opart #london #bayswater #streetart

From @KitchenAid_UK this morning…We would like to inform you that currently these products are non repairable This is also why we offer a really outstanding 5 years warranty on such high quality products We are working on the topic of repairability and spare parts…
This #KitchenAid #toaster cost nearly £200 a few years’ ago. It needs new elements I asked @KitchenAid_UK where to get these Their answer is that they do not supply parts or offer a #repair service!!! Off to the #landfill I guess Whatever happened to the #righttorepair #broken

Wow ok @KitchenAid_UK I bought this because I thought it was the same principles as the mixer and if I buy quality now, I’ll buy once this isn’t ok.
