you still get to choose which appliance you have in your home, but the government is there to help ensure that appliance is reliable and efficient.
I suspect that many people have the opposite experience and blame the government for inefficient and unreliable products. I most often experience and hear others complain about water efficient washing machines.

The "high efficiency" ones also tend to be far more complex and unreliable as a result. There's plenty of complaints on HN about them too.
