I've been using the original k550s for 11 years now. I wasn't especially careful with them but had no big issues. Of course the pads had to be replaced couple of times and there's a crack on the plastic part of the headband that doesn't really affect anything, otherwise still going strong

Well for me it was just one drop and they are gone. Maybe there was a drop in quality, they are manufactured in china now, maybe your pair was better
