29. I did too.

I was a bit of a Samsung loyalist. But I cant do it any more.

I just replaced my third dead Samsung monitor that didn't last as long as it should.

The dishwasher died days after the warranty period

The fridge started freezing over due to a poorly designed drain. I had to go to the internet to jury rig a fix.

The flagship phone (a few generations back) had amazing features.. except the speakerphone didn't work, even after sending it in for repairs.

the "Smart" oven refused to stay connected to wifi, and the control panel(most importantly the off button) stopped working when it got hot. I went through 3 warranty repairs that never fixed this major safety issue, then went out of warranty period and was on my own.

The dryer stopped drying. again shortly after warranty period was over.

Etc.

The TV is still running. Other than that, literally everything has been great, amazing features and abilities.. right up until they stopped working fairly close out of the warranty period.
