What attracts people to place orders is often "expensive and useless"!
5 kinds of household appliances are widely promoted, but when you actually buy them home, you find that you don't want to use them, can't use them, or can't afford them. So stop listening to the braggadocio of merchants, stay away from these products, and use your money on the cutting edge is the right thing to do.
.01 After throwing it away, I also bought it - small kitchen appliances
Every time I give up, I throw away several small kitchen appliances. In the second year, I couldn't resist the temptation, and I bought them one after another. Wait until the end of the year to give up, and then throw them away – and so on for years.
This type of small kitchen appliance has two characteristics:
• The price is low, so it doesn't hurt to buy.
• Poor ability, eat ash after using it once.
Here's an example: "breakfast machines" – I just searched the Internet and found more than a dozen breakfast machines. Each product detail page features a variety of delicacies that will make your mouth water.
But when I bought it home, I found that the online recipes couldn't be made at all, or they were hard to eat. In the end, I had two buns or a pancake for breakfast, and nothing improved.
.02 The cost is too high - change consumables
Some household appliances only make people "heartache" once, and that is when they pay the bill. Some household appliances make people "heartache" every six months, that is, household appliances with consumables - every six months, the consumables must be replaced.
Consumables also have two characteristics:
• The cost of consumables is extremely high, and a new machine is built every two years.
• Do not change the consumables can not be used, and even have side effects.
Two typical products: water purifier and air purifier. Changing the filter element is at least a few hundred yuan, if you don't really have this need, it is recommended to start cautiously.
However, these products are not frivolous, and their capabilities are beyond doubt. So again: if you really have a demand, you can buy it with confidence. But if you just follow the trend, I advise you to be cautious!
.03 Power consumption is too high - new feature
In addition to changing consumables, there is also a kind of household appliance that is "affordable and unaffordable". This kind of household appliances belong to "too high power consumption", which costs water, electricity, and natural gas, and they are reluctant to open it when they buy it home.
The characteristics of this type of product are:
• Not a new product, but a new feature of an old product.
• It can be used as a direct replacement for the old model, but there is also a new way of installation.
What I remember more vividly is the zero cold water gas water heater: there is a return pipe that can be installed, and it can be installed without it (directly replace the old one). However, after the installation of the non-return pipe, it was found that the circulation effect was not good and could not be used normally.
The most important thing is power consumption - after turning on the "zero cold water" function, the gas meter turns faster than the electric fan. I just bought it home, and I continued to open this function for half a month, and the gas bill cost two or three hundred yuan.
.04 expensive and useless - high-end model
People often talk about "you get what you pay for", and I say: At first glance, you haven't been cheated! If you have bought those expensive and useless high-end household appliances, you will not say so.
The characteristics of "pit daddy" high-end household appliances are:
• Extensive use of high-end materials, excellent texture and touch.
• Lots of use of high-end features, although I don't know what to do.
The first time I was cheated was when I bought a refrigerator with a camera function: the refrigerator has a camera inside, and I can see the situation in the refrigerator through the display on the door. It's weird - can't I just open the door and see?
The most recent time I was pitted was to buy a range hood with a large number of non-stick pan coatings, imagining that it would be better to clean up, but later found that the service life of the coating was very short. Before the hood was dirty, the coating cracked.
.05 Old model renaming - selling at a high price
Nine times out of ten, those who can be pitted by this method are young people, because older people have seen its predecessor. Unfortunately, I'm a young man, and I don't always have a long memory.
The characteristics of this type of "new product" are:
• Older products have been withdrawn from the market or have low sales.
• The gimmick of the new product is very attractive.
For example, I once followed the trend and bought a washing machine for underwear, and later found out that it was a small semi-automatic washing machine. There is no technical content at all, the shell and motor have even regressed, but the price is several hundred.
Instead of chasing a new model that I haven't seen before, like me, I should buy a new type that I have never seen. For example, if it is also an underwear washing machine, you can honestly buy a small drum type or wave wheel type, and the chance of being pitted will be much smaller!
