    Modern appliances just aren’t as good. Check with Goodwill, or yard/estate sales. You can pick up a vintage kitchen cube that works just as well for pennies on the dollar, and it will outlast you.

      I still have my great grandma’s cast iron kitchen cube that she brought over from the old country.

      I can’t even describe what that thing can do with pork chops.

        I prefer carbon steel cubes myself but cast iron is nice too.

      Because you are not accounting for inflation. A modern kitchen cube made in the same quality as a vintage cube would cost one cubic meter of pennies.
