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?

Agreed. In my experience you need to spend at least $400 to get a decent acoustic guitar, but even then it can be hit or miss. On the other hand, I have a $400 Guild that plays and sounds every bit as good as my stepdad's $2k Martin, much to his chagrin, so you never know.

The best acoustic guitar I ever had though was a 1958 Gibson J50 which you can't really find for under $5k, so price definitely can matter.
