Nothing says togetherness like situps and kitchen appliances, Bob.
Hmmm .. I've heard of the washing machine being used as a marital aid ... but never the thought of kitchen appliances does open up a whole new experience :>)
Our kitchen appliances are far from a marital aide. They always breakdown and bring us no joy. Samsung crap. That said, I don't know if they even make a decent refrigerator anymore. At least one that costs under 5 grand.
Yep ... Appliance prices have gone through the roof ... A very close friend was my "go to" for appliance advice repairs, sadly he was killed in a scooter accident two years ago ... He was a great man :<(
