I have a Samsung fridge that has an integrated water pitcher setup (keeps it full inside the door). It's actually pretty cool. Nice pitcher too.
However, I made the mistake of putting it in the dishwasher on a Sanitize cycle (normal cycle is meant to/should be okay).
The heat deformed the pitcher (just plastic).
I did some various heating myself to make the top sit right again, but it just never did, and it being very slightly off-kilter was enough to not trip the fill mechanism.
So I went to buy a new one.
Holy hell.
One hundred and twenty dollars.

And this is not someone on Amazon gouging. Indeed Samsung themselves want $140.

for a plastic water pitcher.

Not Samsung, but I had a double oven whose circuit board died. The manufacturer wanted more than the cost of the oven for a new circuit board (was an older oven). That one thankfully ended up being a fairly common and simple fix (some capacitors and some other things - there was someone on eBay selling repair service - "$59, send me your board, and I'll send it back in three days repaired").
