Bad ones are also expensive. For what I’ve seen, the cheap ones are the non-smart basic function devices. They usually last longer and if they break they can be easily fixed with a screwdriver and a YouTube tutorial. You don’t need a Rolls Royce, a Toyota Landcruiser works just fine.
The Miele oven I had broke 2 months after 2 year warrenty. The mechanic who looked at it said it was dead, I needed to buy a new one. I found the issue myself, the spit roast function (which I never used) was broken. I unplugged it and the over worked again. The Miele mechanic costed €185. The news I needed to buy a new one costed me that much, even though it was a simple fix.
Miele used to produce great devices which would last for 40 years. But also they found out you sell less when it never breaks. Now they rely on their good name while the quality becomes less.
I used to insure every new phone I got. First one I didn’t, because I never broke my phone before, fell out of my hand and broke the screen after just 2 weeks. Sad face.

No Miele appliance I have owned has ever broken. But agreed, adding screens and TVs is just dumb and increases the price with no benefit.

Strange. Made the mistake of getting the 10 year warranty on all of the appliances and never used it.
