Nowadays, when we enter the home appliance market, we are often dazzled by the dazzling array of products.
All kinds of large appliances and small household appliances emerge in an endless stream, each of which seems to have exciting selling points. But the reality is that not every appliance can meet our daily needs, and some even become idle items soon after buying them.
Today we will summarize 5 kinds of home appliances that sold very high in the year, but now they are almost unsellable.
After reading the reason, you will feel that "it can't be sold" is also reasonable.
1. Washing and drying machine: poor drying effect and secondary pollution
The washer-dryer received a lot of attention when it was launched, and it seemed like the perfect solution especially for families living in humid areas. However, there are many problems in practical use.
Poor drying effect: Because most washer-dryers use condensation drying technology, the drying temperature is high and the drying time is long, which can easily lead to damage to clothes. At the same time, dried clothes often have wrinkles or uneven drying.
Risk of secondary pollution: Since the washer-dryer usually does not have a fluff collector, it is easy to accumulate fluff and dust inside the washing machine after long-term use, resulting in secondary pollution.
2. Intelligent voice drying rack: flashy function
The smart voice drying rack attracted a lot of attention with its high-tech features and convenience when it was launched, but many problems were exposed in actual use.
Drying function: The drying function of the smart voice drying rack usually blows from the top down, causing the top half of the laundry to dry and the bottom half to remain wet. This uneven drying effect makes consumers lose confidence in this function.
Smart features are not practical: Although smart voice drying racks are equipped with high-tech features such as ultraviolet sterilization and smart voice, these functions often seem flashy in actual use. Consumers are more inclined to choose simple and practical ordinary drying racks.
3. Juicer: the process is complex to reduce the frequency of use
The juicer was once seen as an essential tool for a healthy diet, but over time, it has also fallen into the cold.
Complex use process: Compared with direct consumption of fruit, the use of a juicer requires a series of complex processes such as washing fruit, peeling, cutting, juicing and cleaning the juicer. This is obviously not an ideal choice for modern people who pursue a convenient life.
Changing health concepts: With the renewal of health concepts, people gradually realize that direct consumption of fruits can retain more fiber and nutrients, so the use of juicers naturally declines.
4. Folding washing machine: semi-automatic operation and capacity limit
Folding washing machines once attracted attention for their portability and space-saving characteristics, but the use experience was not satisfactory.
Cumbersome semi-automatic operation: Folding washing machines often require manual water addition, drainage, and rinsing, which is obviously not convenient for modern homes that are looking for fully automated washing.
Limited capacity: Folding washing machines usually have a small capacity and are only suitable for washing small items such as underwear or baby clothes. This limits the range of its use, making it unsuitable for large families or diverse washing needs.
5. Soymilk machine: the dilemma of cumbersome operation and single function
Soy milk machines once became the representative of the health trend, especially when homemade soy milk was considered healthier than commercially available. However, despite technological advancements that have enabled modern soymilk machines to achieve functions such as automatic heating, no soaking beans, and no filtration, its use in homes has gradually declined.
The operation is still cumbersome: although the soymilk machine can automate the process of making soy milk, the preparation and cleaning work before and after use is still relatively cumbersome. For busy office workers, morning time is precious, and they are more inclined to buy a cup of soy milk on the side of the road rather than spend time and energy making it at home.
Relatively single function: The soymilk machine is mainly used to make soymilk, and the function is relatively simple. For consumers looking for a variety of beverages, this is clearly not enough.
Conclusion: Practicality is king
When buying home appliances, we are often attracted by a variety of novel functions and appearances, but the products that can really be used for a long time are those that are practical and easy to operate. When choosing home appliances, we should analyze our needs more rationally and pay attention to the practicality and cost performance of products. Only in this way can we avoid buying those flashy appliances that end up being idle.
