There's definitely a big impact on the environment, because rather than throwing away a product that can easily be repaired, we can consider the alternative of repairing it. We are able to reuse the materials and allow a second life and extend the lifespan of the product.
Imagine how much we are shopping online right now. All of those products are being thrown away because of a minor defect or because of a malfunction that is caused by something that cannot be controlled by the consumer. They can't access it and make the repair themselves or even bring it to a third party repair shop to do that.
