I changed out the burner tubes in the propane grill. The first set of burners I got did not have adjustable air inlets. Ordered some different ones and the difference is surprising.

Could be worse; at least fasteners are relatively easy to source upgraded corrosion-resistant replacements for.
It reminds me of my old Samsung front-load washing machine: when that failed, I took it apart. Every single metal internal part was pristine stainless steel, except for one: the “spider arm,” which attaches the drum to the drive shaft. It was made out of some kind of ridiculous reactive pot metal that had corroded completely through and broke apart just after the warranty ended. It was the most shameless example of blatant planned obsolescence I’ve ever heard of, let alone experienced firsthand.
Failed Samsung spider arm (not my pic, but mine was just as bad)
I really don’t understand designs like that. Are people really experiencing what you did and then getting up and buying ANOTHER Samsung machine?
I would immediately ban them from any further purchase. Actually I’d never buy a Samsung appliance because they are pure garbage, but the point remains.
I don’t get these shitty manufacturers and planned obsolescence.
This is a bit of a conspiracy theory, but consider… Even if you buy a different brand, maybe they’re doing the same? Maybe people bought a different brand, experienced the same thing, and decided to go Samsung next?
Maybe, but usually doing research you’ll find pretty quickly that Samsung is shit.
I have found this to be the case with all Samsung products. I’m not sure why or when they became so popular.
That looks like it is made from compressed lint
