Appliance parts - a total scam. Sure, we have part numbers, but we want you to buy a whole new oven, so we don't actually make the parts you'll need, that would hurt new oven sales....

@Ecnerwal I echo this sentiment, having had problems with fridge shelves not having extant replacement parts 🙃

@bertieb The near future hopefully will provide freely downloadable models of appliance parts that could be printed on 3D printers at ones home or local makerspace / public library (or ordered from companies who print arbitrary objects and deliver via mail-order).

So far this year I've had to replace an entire range and washing machine because a part is no longer manufactured or available (even used on ebay).
