They are a very unfortunate lesson to corporate America: Build something that works great and doesn't break over time, eventually you will no longer have a market to sell products to.

This person has no idea what they are talking about. The company was bought by a private equity hedge fund that took out a loan in the company's name paid themselves millions. Now the company will declare bankruptcy and default on the loan and they get to keep all the money they paid themselves. A business lesson indeed, but not one about making a good product.

Yes, but still a good product worth getting.

There's a lot more to it than "products that last so long they kill their own market". In short, they were acquired by a private equity firm that effectively ran them into the ground.

Media outlets trying to gloss over the real problem here, which is private equity firms swooping in, gutting the "good" aspects of companies to cut costs and increase profitability at all costs: https://www.theverge.com/23758492...inance-doj

They did, but it doesn't mean they are going out of business. I was a little concerned when I heard about it, but from what I can tell, the few maintenance parts are the seals. Plenty of aftermarket companies are selling them on Amazon.

PE owners issued $450M in new debt and then immediately paid out $250M in dividends to themselves resulting in the company carrying 8x leverage compared to the 4x it had prior.

Slowing sales sure, but not enough for bankruptcy.

I think was just a fad. To infer a company would be better off making a product that breaks and needs replacement is bizarre. Wouldn't the breaking devices undermine customer trust in the brand and then they'd sell fewer units… the Salon article's conclusions are weird. I agree, that the new investors in the instant pot brand probably destroyed it, but then again, seems like it was a fad.

Both mentioned long durability is a valid reason why sales drop. It makes sense. Imagine apple develops a new iphone that won't be replaced in 5+ years, it would be a very bad business decision.
Apple DOES make products that endure 5+ years - in fact, they're one of the ONLY phone manufacturers that puts out OS updates for their phones 4-7 years after launch. Most others do 2-3 at most.
