🛠️ Tired of tech that's designed to die?
The fight against #PlannedObsolescence is heating up. From physical wear to software locks, our devices are often built with an expiration date. 📉
We break it down:
✅ Natural vs. Programmed obsolescence.
✅ How the EU’s #RightToRepair is changing the rules.
✅ Why "retrofit parts" are the secret weapon for a circular economy.

Three years ago I bought @juliette an electric kettle for her birthday (because romance is not dead).

Looking for a stainless tank, hidden heating element, and temperature settings, I found the Krups KE07. Bit expensive, but it'll last decades. Right? Button 1 broke after a year. Button 2 today..

Thread in three parts

1. How it broke

2. Why I think you should not buy a Krups / Tefal appliance

3. How to fix it with a 3D printed part
