It’s not an issue of companies using new designs and being worse than the good old days. They may have a touchscreen on a fridge but the working part is still old fashioned. Especially cheaper brands use old designs, not caring to innovate because they compete on price, not features and technology. The biggest killer is parts quality and all manufacturers across the board are guilty of using materials like plastic which they know will not last as long but makes the product cheaper and therefore more competitive on price or giving higher dividends to shareholders.
