Not quite what you're asking, but "buy it for life items" - speed queen commercial washers and driers, german garden tools, japanese cameras, American leather boots with goodyear welts, made in the USA hand tools
isnt every camera japanese? what, except polaroid?
Speed Queens are the best home purchase I have made. When purchased, dealer said "these are items that will be passed down to your grandchildren and still work good as new." Have had for 6 years and no problems at all.
I have had 2 other new sets, Maytag & Kenmore and both sets were torn apart to weld legs on and make firepits because they broke down. https://pic8.co/sh/e0XC38.jpg
