More and more I find that "things" don't last as long as they should. Things were built better in times not long passed. Examples are interior door handles and kitchen taps. Our original doors were changed after about 20 years usage. In that time only a couple of door handles needed replacing. The replacement doors are in place around 10 years yet most of the door handles needed to be replaced. The lever falls off when you open the door.... The same with kitchen taps, the inserts fail after little more than a year service. And they don't fit exactly either and always need some filing or sandpaper use to get them to work properly. But my main point is that they appear to be designed to work for a certain length of time (which is getting shorter every year). Anyone care to comment......
