Most comments have covered the biggest ones, but I'm going with a toaster. I have bought some really fancy toasters that can't consistently toast a slice or bread or bagel and burn the edges and I've have some non-name junk tier that do great. It really seems like this should be a solved problem at this point, but nope.
My GF did extensive research before buying our new toaster because almost every single one seems to suck. She finally got an expensive one from SMEG. Nice name. How hard is it to make a toaster that doesn't suck? They're SO simple.
The youtuber Technology Connections did an episode about toasters and how much better they were in the past. Retro toasters are apparently the way to go.
