planned obsolescence

Apparently the Instant Pot was built without a lot of bullshit and this Atlantic article suggests that was why the company filed for bankruptcy.

I disagree with that being the reason. Products without lots of bullshit do fine but Instant Pot purchased other companies and tried to expand into basically every kitchen role in like 5 years.

Look at Vitamix for instance and even with making composters? they seem to manage without bullshit.
