    And put real tech specs on the labels. Like the pulse width modulation for induction stoves and the water and energy used for different laundry/dishwasher cycles and the mean failure time for the fridge compressor.

    None of this “innovative leak-resistant glass shelves” crap.

      And a diagram with the actual object dimensions, with measurements all around. I’m shopping for a bed and there’s so much bullshit using the height of the headboard instead of where the mattress actually sits

        Holy shit yes.

        I had a house with very narrow basement stairs and needed a dryer. So I very diligently checked that the dryer I ordered would fit.

        Turns out there was a 3” bulge on the back they neglected to measure. Since it took them six fucking hours to find my damn house I disassembled it, carried it downstairs in parts, and reassembled it in the basement.

        Whoever tries to get that thing out will think I’m a magician.

        Oh, and a full wiring diagram.
