I've felt this way for a long time, and I enjoy using lower quality things sometimes just to confirm it's worth the investment into something more advanced. Like violin, I still play my $50 special I bought in 2005, because it sounds fine and I'm terrible so it's Good Enough. On the other hand, I am building my second computer keyboard that's going to cost me $300+ because, well, I make a living with these things and I use it 60+ hours a week. I have wrist problems, so a better keyboard literally translates into more hours billed.
