- asdff 2y agoA lot of them are more noisy, consume more energy, and emit a good deal more heat with the assumption you have a pro kitchen vent setup. The sort of appliances everyone had in the 90s were basically end game already. They still work today after all with pretty routine repair jobs should anything happen (probably won't).
- iamthepieman 2y agoMaybe. Commercial anything often has subtly different use cases that are not advertised or shown since they are implicit in an industry. Commercial kitchen appliances have rock solid frames, bases, enclosures but wearable parts might be no better than anywhere else since it might be assumed they are being replaced every year. Completely different example I encountered recently. A bike tech told me the highest end components need constant adjustment and maintenance since tey are made of such lightweight materials. Totally fine if you've got a dedicated maintenance tech on your racing team. Pain in the ass if you're a weekend warrior.
- sitkack 2y agoYou often want to go for the "Toyota Corolla" or the Timex. Something mass market that has had a low amount of needless churn in the design. The scale at which these products are sold is staggering, they can't have returns, the backscatter would swamp the company.
