I grew up with $20 walmart blenders, and hated anything that required a blender.

Recently bought a ninja and there is no going back. I'll never use a crappy blender again.

Anything else like that?

Windshield wipers (that don't go SQUEEAK SQUEEAK & actually let you see out the window).

I always buy shitty ones. They last just as long as the expensive ones, and when you wipe them off when installing, they work just as well too.

Ymmv if you live somewhere with actual temperature changes though.

In my experience,the cheap ones have worn out\ripped from Sun damage or lack of use about every year. I've had an expensive one for about 2-3 years now and they work amazingly.
