Seems like nothing you can buy these days is made to last. It's all designed to break/fail/wearout in short order.
Nobody makes a hose end sprayer worth a %# anymore. You can pay $2.00 or 20.00 and you still get junk.
Last night the one I bought this spring broke. By the time I got a new one on the hose, of course in getting it off the hose the connection broke so I had to repair the hose first, the sun had set and all the water I was spraying to clean the chicken waterer's was freezing on top of the pallets I was standing on and I slipped and fell. Every spring we buy 3 or 4 of those blasted things and they all break.
Can openers are another. Doesn't make any difference if its manual or electric, they either don't work worth a crap or they don't last. Now for me lasting is like for 15 or 20yrs. not 15 or 20 months. The best canopener is still a P-38 I carry on my key chain. Will open any size or shape can every time.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-38_can_opener
Hope everyone has a good Friday the 13th and stays safe.
