Whats something that is only worth getting the expensive version of?
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?

Dude. I found a working baratza preciso at savers for $11 a couple days after I realized the same thing and decided I'd start hunting for an espresso grinder.
It was the perfect confluence of timing, interest in making different style coffees, and unwillingness to spend a fortune.
Undoubtedly my best thrift store find.
Now I can get pretty much like 75% of the way to real espresso (won't get crema, but whatever) with my free secondhand aeropress and my $11 grinder. It's amazing. Another $15 for a milk frother and I'm making yummy cappuccino style drinks easy peasy
When your milk frother costs more than your espresso machine and grinder combined...
