Just a shower thought. Obviously depends on the industry, but in terms of electronics I fee enthusiast grade (think gaming motherboards, for example) are better built than professional grade. Thoughts?

enthusiast: Yesn't.
Depends on product range, price, price vs. conpetition and price/performance ratio

Business: Usually yes but they come with a "business tax" attached. Meaning they are made to make more money. So the manufacturer could in turn ask for more $$$.
Suddenly a 1000€ VR headset might cost 3000€ and could require a mo thly fee for the software.
Also have features you wouldn't need at home like kensington locks.
