Is this just because you actually start using them? Every time I put something in my fridge/freezer I have a moment of appreciation for what a brilliant and indispensable device it is.
Yeah, vacuum cleaners still suck to this day. They're heavy, obnoxiously loud and smell funny. It's an assault on all senses! Also, the cables are beyond annoying, but cordless ones have battery lives so terrible they're pretty much unusable except for the tiniest of tiny houses.
I have no joy in using vacuum cleaners, sweeping with a broom is less stressful experience.
I should also add that I dislike all of the green and red lights incorporated into modern appliances...My kitchen and living room look like a Jawa garage sale late at night
