40 Designs That Are So Bad, They Deserve To Be Shamed In This Online Thread
Ever had a moment where you looked at a product and thought, "What were they thinking?" You're not alone. We believe that we've all come across things that seem so poorly designed that you can't help but wonder if the people behind them ever gave their creations a test run.
While many of us have encountered products that leave us scratching our heads, wondering if anyone on the design team actually tried using them, it's a sentiment shared by countless. This issue caught the attention of Reddit user u/Stay-Thirsty, who posed an intriguing question on r/AskReddit: “What product was so poorly designed that you suspect the team that made it never used the product?” People from all over the internet began sharing their stories of design mistakes, and the frustration flowed in like a flood.
Keep reading to discover the wild responses that rolled in. We’ve also reached out to Chris Wilson, a product design expert, to get his take on some of the biggest design errors. Scroll down to read the whole interview!

Pockets on women’s clothing.
Blyss Blyssylb 1 year ago
Pockets on Women's clothing...What Pockets? Oh This? No, This is designed to only Look like I have pockets. These don't actually open so they can't be used as pockets...
Chris Wilson shared that he studied Product/Industrial Design as an undergraduate in London. “The university had excellent links with industry and the degree course centered heavily around real-life clients, from well-known companies and brands, setting genuine briefs. There was always a real chance that what we were presenting to our clients may actually make it to production.”
Today, Chris mainly teaches Product/Industrial Design. He makes easy-to-understand YouTube videos that explain advanced design techniques, helping thousands of people around the world. We suggest you visit his channel to pick up some useful design tips and tricks!

Faucets that are so short that you can't fit both hands under them without touching the back of the sink. It's so infuriating how common this is. I have to contort my hands to use them.
Bonus: faucets (most common in public parks and such) that are push activated and last only one or two seconds. Clearly not designed for proper hand washing.

Design plays a crucial role in our everyday lives, from the products we use to the spaces we call home and work. However, it's not always perfect, and even the most experienced designers can stumble upon design flaws. We were curious to hear about some of the most common design flaws Chris has come across in his career. “The flaw I see most regularly, and maybe it’s something I just can’t unsee anymore, is any feature that suggests it’s the work of a self-indulgent designer,” Chris told us. “When a product stands out from the crowd because of features that are of little benefit to the user, I’m left asking myself why they’re there at all. Some designers like to throw everything into their designs – but why? Usually, the answer is more about themselves than the client or end user.”

All of the «tear here» markings on coffee packs, juice cartons, etc., mark the strongest/most tear resistant part of the package.
In the world of design, creating a product that works well and looks great is a true art form. But what are the most important factors that make a product well-designed? According to Chris, it’s simplicity. “Successful designs are those which are simple to manufacture, to understand and use, and to maintain. They have a minimal impact on the environment, in manufacture, in use, and beyond. A well-designed product makes someone’s life a little easier, without being at the expense of someone else. It may be a little cliché, but I always consider the key to be subtraction, rather than addition. Find ways to make your design more simple.”

My dishwasher beeps several times loudly when the cycle is done. Loudly enough that you can hear it outside the house. If you don't open the door, it will beep again 45 minutes later, and every 45 minutes forever until you do so. There is no way to silence this feature or reduce the volume.
Apparently there's no such thing as starting the dishwasher at night and then going to bed in these designer's minds...

Someone thought that one through. Sort of. My dad always opens it to let the humid air out so the heat can dry the dishes off. But it would suck if you've got a pet who could wander all over your nice clean dishes (looking at cats here), or lick something still too hot to be safe (dogs mostly), or if you just happen to walk by. Or a small child touches stuff while it's still red hot. Am I overthinking this - does it cool down first?

If you read the manual (or look it up online) there is actually a way to disable that function. Because that actually did occur to the designers, unfortunately it didn't occur to them that consumers wouldn't check the manual to learn how to use all the functions and features of the machine they bought.

My parents' dishwasher was loud as hell (it's was a really old model) so we always knew when it's done because the rumbling would stop. I guess I you REALLY needed to know when the dishwasher was done a beep would help. But to have beep until the heat death of the universe with no option to mute seems an insane design choice.

Can you unplug or snip the wires to the speaker? I know it shouldn't be necessary, but could provide relief. I had a neighbor with an UPS that would beep so loudly when it lost main power ever so briefly that you could hear it across the parking lot - it persisted even after the mains were back until he reset it manually. It happened once when he was abroad for an extended period, and management had to call his friend with access to come over and reset it... Took him over a day... Then it happened again, but nobody wanted to wait, so we decided it needed to be silenced or disabled. He agreed (he couldn't not, without big fines and ultimate police entry), so I was able to just unplug the two pins on the speaker. No clue how his UPS performed after that (no hard resets after that till he got home)... But you can't terrorize a community with that nonsense!

Many people put it on overnight (including me) because we have half-price electricity between 0000 and 0600.
When it comes to designing a new product, finding the right balance between looks, practicality, and ease of use can be a real challenge. Chris shared that it is always a careful mix. He emphasizes that design is often about finding a compromise. “I would put the needs of my client or end-user first and work closely with them to ensure that my ideas and their needs were in alignment. The successful designer will find ways to create an equilibrium. Equilibrium doesn’t have to consist of equally sized parts for balance to be achieved.”

I had an automatic litter box that was fine for pee but the motor was way too weak to scoop poop and regularly got stuck. Also, poop tended to stick to the tines and make a big mess. I called the (small) company. The rep told me that the box design was tested using water and was never tested in a real life situation with real cats as no one there had a cat. She didn't understand why this was a problem.

Toys that only have one volume: EXTREMELY LOUD!!!!
Whoever makes these does not have kids of their own.
Arnaud 1 year ago
My two sons had a few toys like this. One of them was a "sleeping box", the thing you put on the bedside table to make sounds and lights to help the kid fall asleep. One volume setting, yelling. This was deliciously ironic. I just soldered a resistor on one of the speaker wires and the problem was gone. Maybe I should create a "quiet module" with a variable resistor and two screw type terminals so everybody can do this without a soldering iron?
If you’re an aspiring product designer, Chris has some advice for you to avoid common design pitfalls and create more user-friendly products. “Understand the needs of your client and/or end user. Recognize and ensure that the focus is squarely upon them and their needs, not on producing work for your portfolio. Be noticed for your ability to answer the brief and become recognized for the skillful simplicity of your designs.”

The word "latinx" as a gender-neutral way to refer to Latinos.
Whoever came up with that nonsense had never even taken a Spanish 101 course. "Latinx" is simply unpronounceable in Spanish - even a 5yo speaker would know that - and the real gender neutral word would be "latine", but even that is very rarely used
Edit: stupid spelling
Vinny DaPooh 1 year ago
I've yet to meet anyone of Latin American descent that uses latinx. Or even likes it. I've met plenty of virtue signaling Karen's that adore it though. Spanish (like other Romance languages) has a gender for everything including people. Don't like the one you were born with? Let me know and I'll use the other one for you. And yes, I'm of Spanish heritage.

Okay, bear with me here... all these grocery items in plastic that have a ziploc closer as well.
The idea is great! Open, use, reseal.
But in my experience (and I'm not exactly old and weak) these don't work as planned. Frequently they have the perforated section you can rip off, supposedly to allow access to the ziploc portion. Many times there's glue holding pieces together and the perforated section never seems to extend past that.
Even when not glued, the ziploc is apparently held together by the weak nuclear force and will NOT come apart. There's never enough plastic to pull on, and when there is it's approximately as strong as wet tissue paper. So it just rips.
IMHO the worst offenders are deli meats, but it's been tortillas and more that have flummoxed me. Far too often I just take scissors to the package and then 'seal' it later with a clothes pin.

The newly-built ladies toilets in our office building which had no space for the sanitary products bins.

Dyson vacuum cleaners. They may be great if you live in a pristine, lovely house - but when it's an old house and you add 4 cats, a dog and 2 children it's a useless piece of c**p where the cleaning head needs to be de-clogged every 10 minutes. And you almost need to be an engineer to disassemble, clean and reassemble it. I hate that f*****g piece of trash and am very, very sorry that I sold my reliable old Hoover. I am positive that Dyson and whoever else was involved in creating this masterpiece has never actually had to clean a house. Sucking up pieces of styrofoam at the testing clinics is not a real world example.

I just bought a waterproof cargo bag for the roof of my car that was fairly expensive
The Velcro that keeps the zipper protected was just GLUED ON, not stitched
The very first time I opened the bag all the Velcro came off because the attraction to itself was stronger than the adhesive bond to the vinyl bag
It’s like there was absolutely zero product testing, but I’m sure it was 5 cents cheaper to make it glued rather than stitched. How could something like this have ever been allowed to leave the factory?

My new £1000 washing machine. Does a great job washing clothes and is all singing and all dancing. But all this additional stuff adds complexity and is an absolute bastard to clean. The detergent draw has all this fancy stuff my old didn’t and I just get so much mold growing. Have to take it all apart and clean it so often. It’s so annoying.
Edit: everyone telling me to ‘leave the drawer and door open’….yeah I get that. But that’s why I answered the original question. Stupid design that I have to leave the doors open when not in use. It’s dangerous (with kids and cats!) and it gets in the way. Stupid design

My kitchen trash can. It is one sold by Glad specifically for their bigger, extra strong 20 gallon trash bags. It is not particularly cheap.
It looks good, but the design of it is what you might expect if you told aliens what a trash can is and they designed one without ever seeing it. How it holds the bag basically causes you to lose 4 gallons of capacity and have to risk tearing the bag or spilling its contents every time you go to remove it. It also has a trash bag holder that is so narrow, you have to feed it trash bags one at a time, completely defeating the point. And if you try to compact the trash a bit, you're almost guaranteed to tear the "tear resistant" bag.
Such a poor design.
Edit: For everyone who keeps commenting about how I should recycle and compost... I do. That has nothing to do with my trashcan...

I want to nominate the bus stops in my city, in front of the central station. they were newly build about twenty years ago. Nice, tall roofs against rain, but way too few seats.

And now, after just 20 years they are rebuilding the whole thing again, and the plans I saw don´t look good. Before, the stops where designed so that the bus came in and drove out in a straight line.
