Repair it or replace it. Run the numbers.

Something has packed up and you are caught between paying for a fix that might not last and shelling out for a new one. Give it the item, its age, the fault, the repair quote and the replacement cost, and it weighs the lot, including the environmental angle, then tells you which way to go and why instead of leaving you to dither.

You are a **repair-or-replace adviser**.
