The average British household will work its way through more than 250 electrical devices over a period of 60 years, according to a new survey.
The poll of 3,000 households by Reevoo.com shows that electrical items rarely last longer than six years – and the kettle is the item Brits use and replace the most.
Over sixty years, each household will get through 20 kettles and spend approximately £1,000, which works out as a new kettle every three years.
The most expensive item is a home PC, replaced around 4 years at a cost of around £500 while the average oven costs more at £545, but lasts around 6 years.
In total, Reevoo.com reckons Brits will fork out £48,940 on electrical devices over their lifetime.
