A comparison would be to a kitchenaid stand mixer. Once you’ve perfected a gadget best to stop there and not try and add useless value.

KitchenAid used their advantage into cutting costs, changing pieces into plastic though.

What pieces?

If you mean the gearbox, contrary to amateur opinion, nylon is probably a superior material to the cheap metal ones they replaced.

Because their mixers are still made in the US, labor saving cuts are much more worthwhile to them than materials.

(Their non-mixer offshored lineup is overpriced crap though).
