Product Construction Quality Rating
We provide a construction quality rating for products to help give you an indication of how well a particular piece is constructed. This rating is unique to our site and is determined by us through our years of experience dealing with the products that we sell.
We realize that you make many decisions every time you make a purchase. We try and provide you with useful insights so that you can better understand what you are purchasing. Products receive a construction quality rating based on several factors. To receive a high rating a product must have the following characteristics:
- Easy to Use (doesn't take too much time to use, not to complicated)
- Power (Blender, for example, can handle loads under stress, peak hp vs constant hp)
- Quality Materials (good wirings throughout, metals or plastics)
- Quality Components (good motor, well constructed mechanical mechanisms, heavy duty)
To get a better feeling for what to expect from our different ratings please see the specific guidance we provide below:
Products that receive this rating are the best quality we sell. You can expect that they are well made with great quality material and an eye to detail. They should be easy to assemble and sturdy. These products use a premium selection of materials.
Products that receive this rating are very good quality. They will be easy to assemble and sturdy. These products are very close to our best products, and are often a great value. The materials and parts they use will be very good quality, however they may not be quite as good as the highest quality.
Products that receive this rating are good quality. They should assemble well and be sturdy once assembled. The materials and parts they use will be a mix of top quality and mid-low quality. A product with this rating may use premium materials in the exterior (visible) components, but the interior pieces may be inexpensive materials (i.e. plastics or particle board). These products are often a great value because they hit a sweet-spot that has a quality look and feel to the exterior without the cost of using premium materials throughout.
Products that receive this rating are considered value products. The construction on these products is OK. Do not expect these products to have a long life-time. If you have a short-term need, or are budget limited these can be a very good solution. These products are built primarily with cost in mind, as a result they can use inexpensive materials (plastics and particle board).
Products that receive this rating are our lowest quality, however they are also typically the least expensive. If you have a short-term need these can often be a good solution. Do not expect that they will last forever. There will be limitations that you should expect - these products can take some time to assemble (an hour on average) and these products usually don't survive a move from one home to another. Even with these products you can rest assured that they will work as advertised. We will not sell products that do not meet this minimum construction rating.
If you want us to rate an item or give our opinion on an item, email the name of the item and model number.
Due to the manufacturers's policies we cannot publish a review that is not in their favor for everyone to see. We will be happy to rate a product and email you on a personal basis. The manufacturers only want us to say good things about their items if we are going to review them to the public and we will NOT do that if we don't like the product.
