Maybe not only just work for 15+ years. But allow parts to be purchased and easy manuals to read for at home repairs.
It's now required by law in Europe that spare parts needs to be available for at least 10 years.
That's been a law in the US for cars for ages.
This specifically makes me so much more likely to buy a product.
seriously, being able to fix the washer/dryer ourselves has saved us so much money
I'd go even further and say, release documentation that shows how to DIY new parts from scrap you got laying around or can find in construction debris and junkyards.
