A horizontal dot plot showing repair success rates across 14 categories of items brought to repair cafés. Each category is listed on the y-axis, and the x-axis shows the percentage of successful repairs from 50% to 100%. Each category has a dot connected by a thin line. The size of each dot represents the number of repair attempts, with larger dots indicating more attempts. A vertical dashed line marks the average success rate (around 75%). Categories like Textile, Tools (non-electric), and Bicycles have high success rates (above 85%), while categories such as Display and sound equipment and Computer equipment and phones have lower success rates (around 55–60%) despite having large numbers of repair attempts. The chart highlights that while most items can be repaired successfully, some high-volume categories have comparatively lower repair success rates.
This week's #TidyTuesday looks at repair cafés.
Some are fixed almost every time (like textiles 🧵), while others are brought in a lot but succeed less often (such as electronics).
