My washing machine broke down after 2 years and 12 days, just after the warranty period.
So I opened it and a capacitor burst. Googled a bit. Lifespan ~3 years. The good capacitors with ~20 years service life would have cost 4 cents more. But couldn't repair it because they covered the plate with synthetic resin - only where the cheap capacitors were installed.

My grandma's washing machine from the 80s is still running.

Welcome to capitalism.
