Agreed it definitely depends on what you buy. I inherited a stereo amp from my uncle who always buys really nice gear. I have had it repaired or been able to repair it anytime a component failed and it is now 30 years old. But it was built to last that long not to be disposed of in five.
Right to repair is not just for nerds and tinkerers. We all deserve repairable products.
