30 Once High-Quality Products That Are Now Utter Rubbish

I hope I’m not starting to bore you because I feel as if I’m beginning to sound like a broken record—or maybe a broken washing machine—though that’s a much more painful sound. It’s painful in general, with clothes coming out with all sorts of stains, not to mention flooded laundry floors.

I suppose it’s okay if you have to go through that terrible saga once every twenty years, but once every five years is just a little too much. Next time mine breaks, I’m just going to start hand washing my clothes in the local river with a leaf instead of a sponge and some sort of plant oils instead of soap.
