nope. had a T580 which reproducably crashed when you picked it up by the right side. Likely from mainboard flex. And checking online, it's not a unique case.

And two months after the waranty, the ssd control chip or something broke which basically shredded any data on the ssd. Repair would have been almost as expensive as getting a new one.

Now I've switched to framework for work and personal use and don't regret it

Hmm that's unfortunate. Wherever I worked so far, ThinkPads didn't break, even after the warranty expired.

Well, I wish you better luck with your Framework laptop(s) then.
