This kids toy is engineered better than my dishwasher

Duration: 08:23

It's a sad state of affairs when cheap kids toys are engineered better than expensive appliances.

One could argue a dishwasher is more complex... but really, the kids toy has a harsher life. I'm confident I can keep the kids toy working longer than my Dishwasher, with it's capacitive touch sensors and fancy WiFi-connected features.

Also, DeOxit is magical stuff; here's the bottle I use: https://amzn.to/45kurrp (that's an affiliate link. Just search "Hosa D5S-6" if you don't want to use my link, it won't bother me ;)

DeOxit also comes in other flavors and bottles, like a brush-on applicator for delicate devices.
