Some household appliances have a "bad conscience" from the bones!
In this era of consumption, we often encounter some home appliances that seem perfect, but in fact they are shocking.
In this issue, I will take stock of five 5 kinds of "bad conscience" home appliances, which are convenient and practical, but they have actually harmed many Chinese consumers.
Everyone must keep their eyes open and don't let their money go down the drain!
#01.Knife and chopsticks sterilizer
When it comes to products that make people feel worthless, the knife and chopsticks sterilizer is definitely one. A simple plastic shell, with a small blue light and a heater, costs as much as a few hundred yuan.
With so much money, why not consider buying a built-in sterilizer with more comprehensive features?
When using a knife and chopstick sterilizer, you will also encounter many unexpected problems.
For example, how to clean the inside of the sterilizer? Is the intensity and range of UV rays sufficient? How much power does the heater consume and work efficiently? These are all headaches.
What's even more worrying is that the market is currently flooded: a large number of knife and chopstick sterilizers produced by small workshops.
The quality of the UV and warm air in these products is worrying, and at temperatures of up to 70°C, no one can guarantee that the plastic enclosure will not produce harmful substances.
#02. Wall-mounted solar water heater
Wall-mounted solar water heaters are another appliance that I deeply loathe. Although it is called a "solar water heater", the effect is very different compared to traditional rooftop solar water heaters.
The solar panels of wall-mounted solar water heaters are far away from the water tank, resulting in extremely low thermal conductivity. To put it simply, it is "not hot in the sun".
In the summer, it takes two days to bathe alone, and in the winter, don't expect it to provide enough hot water.
While the storage tank of this water heater is placed indoors and is equipped with electric heating.
However, its heating efficiency, hot water output rate and safety device are not as good as those of specialized electric water heaters. Such a product is really unacceptable.
#03. Portable washing machine
Back then, single-cylinder washing machines were all the rage, as a kind of semi-automatic washing machine, it was simple and practical, but there were also many drawbacks.
Today, the deformed product of this washing machine, the portable washing machine, is quietly popular. However, does this washing machine really work any good?
The biggest disadvantage of a single-cylinder washing machine is not the inconvenience of operation, but the quality of its motor.
Today's washing machines on the market generally use DD motors or BLDC motors, which are stable and efficient. The asynchronous motor used in the single-cylinder washing machine not only has poor stability, but also wears a lot of clothes, and the noise and shaking amplitude are even more unbearable.
In order to solve these problems, portable washing machines have chosen to reduce their power.
The power of about 1000W has been reduced to less than 200W, which greatly reduces the washing effect. To be honest, washing clothes in such a washing machine is no different from soaking in clean water.
What's even more infuriating is that such a low-power asynchronous motor with a layer of plastic shell can be sold for hundreds of yuan, which is really worthless!
#04. Instantaneous electric water heaters
Instantaneous electric water heaters seem to be the perfect combination of the compactness and instantaneous features of a gas water heater with the convenience of an electric water heater. However, when you really want to install it, you will find it difficult.
First of all, the power of the instantaneous electric water heater should reach at least 6000W, which requires the home circuit to have a separate 6mm² wire circuit.
At the same time, the branch switch in the distribution box cannot be lower than 32A, and the main switch cannot be lower than 63A. This is a discouragement for many families.
Even if it is successfully installed, it often does not work as well as it should.
Many consumers have reported that even with a power of up to 6000W, it is still difficult for instantaneous instantaneous heating of the water to a temperature suitable for bathing.
If you want to have a better experience, I'm afraid you need to further increase the power.
#05.Fierce fire gas stove
We all want the gas stove to be a little more powerful so that we can cook more delicious dishes. However, the four words "stir-fry on a hot fire" are not possible for all gas stoves.
As a result, the so-called fierce fire stoves appeared on the market.
The stove head of the fierce stove is very different from the ordinary gas stove, and its maximum firepower is really impressive.
However, the noise problems that come with it are unbearable. When using a fierce stove, it will make a loud "whirring" sound, even overshadowing the noise of the range hood.
It may be acceptable to use in a noisy workplace, but it is simply not appropriate to use it at home. I've tried using a blazing gas stove and the noise is overwhelming.
Final Summary:
In the face of these "bad conscience" household appliances, we must remain vigilant and never blindly follow the trend to buy. When choosing home appliances, be sure to keep your eyes open and screen carefully, so as not to let your money go down the drain.
