For an adult, purchasing a new oven might be a thrilling occurrence in their life. Still, the thrill of that experience for this person seemed to be somewhat fleeting. After buying a brand-new glass stove and setting it in their house, they were eager to run first-time. After briefly leaving the kitchen, they heard a huge crash and went back to see this terrible and demoralising scene. On the day they placed the cabinet above the glass stove collapsed and damaged the whole stove. Was it simply an unlucky event, fate, or karma? This terrible event is the ideal storm of bad timing and unlucky conditions. The cost impact alone is noteworthy; having to replace a brand-new item before ever having the opportunity to utilise it. Beyond the financial loss, though, there's an emotional toll when you see your kitchen improvement ambitions physically dashed before your eyes. The event begs problems regarding the installation of the stove and the cabinet: either there were undetectable underlying problems with the cabinet mounting, or the installation method somehow undermined the stability of the cabinet. The sobering reminder that house renovations can result in unanticipated events emphasises the need of making sure all fixtures—especially those installed above costly appliances—are securely fastened.
