I have always believed that an organisation is only as strong as its weakest link and as long as there are companies out there who are only interested in making money, they will do just that. No thought for repeat business from satisfied customers etc. Sell/make/buy it cheap, throw it away when it breaks, sell/buy another. Trying to find good quality items these days is like looking for a needle in a haystack. It just annoys me when lives are at stake when the items become dangerous without warning. I looked on
Argos recall page recently and saw stacks of recalled items with safety issues. I then looked at
B&Q recalls and found similar! How many of us have dangerous items due to shoddy workmanship or materials. Spare parts for cars are a prime example. Buy cheap, buy twice (assuming that you live to tell the tale).
