sometimes that's a good thing, like Midea making so many of the dehumidifiers and portable AC units that their own brand is now well-recognized and liked! Or microwaves like you said.

I'm still not sure with air fryers. Sometimes it's very different, but a lot of basic brands look nigh identical and sound it often too - Cosori, the Insignia one I used to have, my Bella one I have now (whee recall). I feel like there is a common manufacturer for those, but I haven't figured it out yet. Or maybe there's two common manufacturers, one for housings and one for controller boards, and then various assembly houses that sometimes do shittier job than others, like the case of the Insignia one having a recall.
