Some "high-end" household appliances have suddenly disappeared from our lives.
In today's ever-changing technology, we are always surprised to find that some home appliances that were hot yesterday seem to be replaced by new technology products overnight.
These once glorious household appliances can now only be found in memories.
In this issue, let's take a look at those "suddenly disappeared" household appliances, and after understanding the reasons, we can only say one sentence: deserve it!
01. Chinese range hood:
———— a representative of bulkiness and ugliness
Once upon a time, Chinese range hoods had a place in the market with their unique design concept.
However, with the continuous progress of range hood technology, the air volume gradually increases, and this design of concentrating the oil smoke first and then expelling it seems more and more clumsy and ugly.
Soon, side-draft and top-draft range hoods replaced the Chinese range hood with its more elegant design and more efficient smoke extraction capacity.
Now, the emergence of the top side double smoker has improved the smoke exhaust efficiency to a new height, and its small shape is also loved by consumers.
02. Water Dispenser:
———— the decline of bottled water and the rise of water purifiers
In the past, the combination of water dispenser and bottled water was the standard in many homes, symbolizing an improvement in the quality of life.
However, with the advent of water purifiers, home users can produce pure water directly in the kitchen, and the sales of bottled water and water dispensers have declined rapidly.
Now, the water purifier with its own heating function has become a new favorite in the market, meeting the dual needs of users for convenience and health.
03. Microwave oven:
———— it becomes flavorful when heated, and there are great potential safety hazards
Microwave ovens were once widely popular for their rapid heating, but the taste of heated food often deteriorates, and materials such as metal and plastic may also pose safety hazards during the heating process.
These problems have gradually shaken the position of microwave ovens in the market.
The halogen oven that followed quickly took over the market with its safer and more delicious way of heating.
And now, the rise of the micro-steaming and baking machine has allowed home users to enjoy more cooking functions in a limited space.
04. Direct cooling refrigerator:
———— the disadvantages of frost and inaccurate temperature control
Direct cooling refrigerators have gradually been phased out due to problems such as easy frosting in the freezer compartment and inaccurate temperature control.
The advent of air-cooled refrigerators solves these problems, not only to achieve precise temperature control, but also to avoid the trouble of frosting.
At the same time, the design of its internal air circulation also effectively prevents the problem of mold and odor of food. In the future, as the demand for embedded installation increases, the radiator design of refrigerators will also usher in new upgrades.
05. Fixed Frequency Air Conditioner:
———— comfort is poor, and frequency conversion technology has become the mainstream
In the past, fixed-frequency air conditioners were the mainstream choice of home air conditioners, but the temperature difference between starting and stopping changed greatly and the comfort was poor.
With the advent of inverter technology, air conditioners can continue to operate in a low-power state, keeping the indoor temperature constant, which greatly improves the comfort of use.
Nowadays, the emergence of fresh air conditioning has solved the problem of poor indoor air circulation when traditional air conditioning is used.
06. Semi-automatic washing machine:
———— cumbersome operation and damage to clothing
Although the washing effect of semi-automatic washing machines is better, the operation process is cumbersome and the damage to clothes is great. The advent of fully automatic washing machines has revolutionized this situation, automating the operation of washing and dewatering.
Nowadays, the rise of the washer-dryer, although it still faces some technical challenges, but with the continuous maturity of technology, it is believed that it will become a new choice for home laundry in the future.
07. Storage type electric water heater:
———— heating efficiency is low and the heat preservation effect is poor
As an early hot water solution, storage electric water heaters have problems such as low heating efficiency and poor thermal insulation effect.
With the advent of quick-heating electric water heaters, users can enjoy 24-hour uninterrupted hot water supply.
The emergence of double-bile electric water heaters has made significant progress in saving space, improving heating efficiency and hot water output rate.
Write at the end:
The disappearance of these "suddenly disappeared" household appliances is not accidental, but the inevitable result of scientific and technological development and changes in social needs.
