1972 short years a "Poppy Flower," known in Japan, a singer, actor, critic, novelist, Education Ph.D., University Professor, Japan Association of the United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund, Ambassador, Catholics living in one of Tokyo, Japan, Hong Kong nationals celebrities Miss Chen Meiling (religious name: AgnesChan), 30, wrote at his blog, said her difficult to understand appliance design life of only about 10 years "were the rules", and strongly questioned. Agnes Chan said the recent home of frequent failures of electrical goods, not Water heater No water, electric oven is not on fire, tossing his quiet life's a mess. Agnes Chan said that when she asked Service Why home appliances staff frequent reasons for failure, was told: " Home Appliances To 10 years will be broken naturally. "The main reasons for the phenomenon of home appliance mass strike, because the electrical Chen mostly moved a few years ago when the same batch of new home purchase, therefore, are also in need of" collective out. " Understand Agnes Chan expressed her paper, said: "the time of purchase, clearly told to the safe use of more than 10 years, did not expect less than 10 years to happen." Experts said that if the manufacturers of home appliances design life commitment period "ahead of" a serious failure, even if more than Warranty Should also be concerned about is not the manufacturers exaggerate the "lifetime" of the problem; in particular, the existence of design and quality defects, according to the law makers should take the recall measures. In addition, you should consider more than the safe use of the period as a result of "extended use" components caused by aging, performance degradation, increased power consumption, using the problem of rising costs. Manufacturers exaggerate the products lifetime and consumer appliances in the "extended service" phenomena are not desirable. The expert further said that as technology advances and changes in people's consumption habits, consumer appliances in the process of design life, the safe use of the period, the market life of the contradiction between the more and more prominent. Exclude firms exaggerate the design life, the safe use of the factors that period, consumers Refrigerator , Washing machines, mobile phones and other consumer durable goods, consumer habits, with 10 years ago in the event of major changes, but also need to further upgrade their spending outlook. On the one hand, faster replacement for mobile phones and other "quasi-fast moving consumer goods," consumers need to establish conservation awareness, for the fullest possible play to the value of goods; the other hand, the refrigerator, Air conditioning , Washing machines and other "long-term durable consumer goods", you need to pay attention to design life greater than life, life is far greater than the safe limit, the safe use of period life expectancy is greater than the market problems. For, household appliances and market the product design life of a serious mismatch between life problems. Such as mobile phones, Digital Cameras, digital television, as related technical updates faster design life under normal circumstances are longer than their market life, and thus large numbers of "redundant life" phenomenon; refrigerators, air conditioners, washing machines and other large appliances are often nominal design life expectancy less than their actual life, suspected of posing the question of fraud. The expert said: "Obviously appliance manufacturers need to further strengthen the product life cycle research surveys, consumers should be strict compliance with the safe use of explicit instructions and according to relevant laws and regulations limit to defend their legitimate rights and interests." Formally introduced in China in July this year, the "household and similar electrical appliances life span and recycling General", "the safe use of household appliances life Regulations" two years of safe use of the appliance standards provisions. Detailed specification of the service life of appliances and recycling of the specific rules and a clear division of the consumers, manufacturers lines of responsibility between the consumer safety. The expert further stated: "However, in view of household electrical appliances on the safe use of the nominal number of years based on the" way the manufacturer self-declaration "to the consumer expressly, not third-party quality control inspection agency approved Therefore, consumers still need to improve on the manufacturer, "exaggerating" the safe use of household electrical appliances life of vigilance to safeguard their own legitimate consumer rights.
