instead of buying home consumer appliances, i would elect to purchase appliances that are used in commercial kitchens or working restaurants.

They often only buy long lasting equipment, and the market shows it. It's hella expensive, but that's what you pay for.

I do this for my home, many of the standard, non mechanical items are the same price as one at a big box store but the quality is immensely better. We had a sandwich prep fridge at the house for a number of years and I loved it. But it was much louder and added about $30/month to the electric bill.
