>Yeah, that's anecdotal but I haven't really found the part where buying something more expensive really helped with expanding its lifespan, rather the contrary where "high tech" broke earlier or more often.

buy professional stuff that's expensive, not consumer gadgetry expensive.

a samsung fridge is expensive because of the gimmicks and high tech integrations.

a sub zero fridge is expensive because of the build quality and manufacturer network , part re-use and larger consumer part availability and market.
