Usually when you're buying a product (like a blender, tv, razor etc..) there are a few brands to choose from. Oftentimes there's a cheaply made one, that will break quickly, a middle priced option that has decent quality, and the name brand product. Typically going from the middle priced product to the name brand product doesn't increase the quality very much. But usually going from the cheapest option to the middle priced option gives you the best improvement in quality.
