for oven / airfryer, you have to use it often.  if you don't need to use it, turn it on at least once a month on high heat.

this applied to expensive brands too.

I think you are right, must turn on once a month on high heat to keep the oven working...............

The same applies to car correct? Remember COVID a lot WFH then later open liao some car owners cannot start their car?

The car batteries needs to be charge periodically else the starter motor cannot work.  For long periods of unused of the car, it is best to remove the positive(+) cable of the battery, to lengthen the life of the battery...................

For standing fan I buy so many brands over the years and those cheap one can last 2-3 years only. Finally pay more get kdk or mitsubishi and really can last long. I count the years it work no spoil will cover back if I go for cheaper brand.

My experience, kdk last longer than mitsubishi.

i ever bought one small cheap fan from donno where...i think should be Carrefour or some DIY shop. it's for my dog 

Nice

My mistral fan one of the blades broke in less than 6 months.  $52 cheap but no good.  Sold at Courts.  Knnbccb

6 months still can claim warranty

[drgn]

It is not possible for a fan blade to just break unless there is some external  physical force on it. If it is just rotating, it lasts almost forever...because the forces exerted is so small. 

Anyway 2yrs warranty any problem they will fix.

if more than 2 years, just go mr DIY to buy replacement, less than $3

6 months still can claim warranty

It will be good if you were to buy KDK, who specialize in electric fans....................

It will be good if you were to but KDK, who specialize in electric fans....................

I think kdk fans are good.

But a fan is not a technological wonder.....
It's a simple appliance that many companies can  can make.

Main issues are no longer motor problems are these are mass produced to a level of near perfection. Usually it is just discrete components like capacitor or fuse.

You can get a cheap fan. Turn it on everyday while on warranty to weed out the weak components. If there is it usually happen during this period.

After that the fan will last for very very long. 

There are 2 types of fans:

1. Sleeve motor 
2. Ball bearing motor.

The sleeve motor wears off faster you can use around 5yrs then the parts wear off and you have noise.

The ball bearing fan lasts upwards of 10yrs as ball bearings reduce the wear and tear. Some of the companies offer 6yrs warranty for ball bearing fans. If you want a fan that lasts 10yrs buy this type of fan. Cost is $100+

A cheap fan $20 is good enough and does last....giving value for money.

Those who insist on buying branded ones like KDK and Panasonic...by all means you can pay more for assurance. I just think it is unnecessary.

Mayer air fryer quality cannot make it.
Better buy Phillips air fryer.

You are eating those food in the air fryer.
The wire mesh on the blower fan inside the air fryer may rust easily and quite dirty if you never clean up.

There are 2 types of fans:

2. Ball bearing motor.

The sheath motor wears off faster you can use around 5yrs then the parts wear off and you have noise.

You are lucky, never encounter white smoke out coming from the fan while you are sleeping. Branded fan, why expensive is mainly due to quality material used.
The durability is guaranteed.

They should use marine grade stainless steel for the wire mesh.......so that it won't rust.............
