The state municipal administration of industry and Commerce released the results of spot checks on a variety of household appliances, and the unqualified rate of air purifiers was as high as 27.5%, which surprised many people. Now technology is quite popular, how can there be so many unqualified products?
Although home appliances are already mature products, from a technical point of view, the difference between brands is not great. In fact, it is not. Dealers should be vigilant in the process of business or consumers in the process of purchase. Otherwise, it is really possible to buy unqualified products. This is by no means alarmist.
The weekly quality report of CCTV news channel on February 20, 2022 broadcast the “quality survey of range hood”, some of which were shocking and deeply disturbed the industry. Now is not a mature market, and home appliances are developing towards high-end and quality. Are there so many unqualified products in the market?

CCTV news channel “weekly quality report” mentioned in the “quality investigation of range hood”. On Friday (February 18), the State Administration of Market Supervision announced the results of national supervision and random inspection of range hood, focusing on 19 items, of which 11 items were unqualified, and the unqualified rate showed an upward trend.
So what are the unqualified products and enterprises? This spot check inspected 65 batches of range hoods produced by 64 enterprises in five provinces and cities, focusing on 19 items. The spot check found that 12 batches of products were unqualified, and the unqualified discovery rate was 18.5%, an increase of 0.3% compared with 2020. The detection rate of unqualified samples increased, and the detection items with problems also increased significantly.
The unqualified items in this random inspection are scattered, involving performance, safety, energy efficiency and other aspects. A total of 11 inspection items are unqualified. A total of 19 items were tested in the national pumping of range hood this time, of which 11 items with unqualified problems accounted for 58%, which is not only related to the use performance of products, but also related to the safety and energy efficiency of products. More items are mainly structure, mechanical strength and protection against touching live parts.
Today, when the government and enterprises attach great importance to high-quality development, there is still a 58% unqualified rate in sampling products, which is difficult to understand and imagine. After all, now that the industry and product technology are so mature and such a high proportion of unqualified products appear, it is by no means a problem of technical ability. The main problem is the subjective will of the manufacturer.

The State Administration of market supervision and random inspection of the state announced that the range hood, a household appliance closely related to residents’ lives, is a range hood. From the results, it is really not satisfactory. There are problems in the two most important indexes of range hood: air volume and air pressure. In addition, there are unqualified products in noise.
According to the national standard, the tolerance between the measured value and the indicated value of the range hood air volume shall not exceed - 10% of the indicated value, which requires that the measured value of the product air volume shall not be less than 90% of the indicated value. However, during the testing process, the indicated value of the range hood air volume produced by Guangdong Kangxing Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. is 19m3 / min, but the measured value is only 15min, which is 82.26% of the indicated value, It is far from meeting the requirements of national standards.
Among the 65 batches of samples sampled by the state, three batches of samples failed to pass the noise items. Zhongshan Jinzheng Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. and Zhongshan Jinzheng Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. More serious violations of consumers’ rights and interests include unqualified parts that directly affect personal safety. Enterprises involved include Zhongshan Xuedi Electric Appliance Co., Ltd., Zhongshan yingbang Electric Appliance Co., Ltd., Zhongshan Jiatian life Electric Appliance Co., Ltd., Guangdong kanghuo Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. and Guangdong Chuntian Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd.
It can be seen that the quality problem of range hood products has been very serious. Moreover, this is only a spot check. If it is a comprehensive census, the results will be even more embarrassing. According to the survey, the discovery rate of unqualified products in the national supervision and random inspection of product quality generally shows an increasing trend, accounting for 8.3% in 2017, 17.5% in 2018, 22.5% in 2019, 18.2% in 2020 and 18.5% in 2021 respectively. It is worrying that the quality problems remain high.

From the situation announced by the State Administration of market supervision and sampling inspection, although it is not shocking, it is also very serious, and even threatens the safety of users. For the segment industry of range hood, the random inspection results are both a reminder and warning. The pursuit of a better life cannot be destroyed by such a phenomenon, which is very worthy of the attention and thinking of manufacturers, dealers and consumers.
For the range hood industry, all manufacturers should establish a correct quality awareness and attach great importance to ensuring product quality. Do not fool the market and users with inferior quality and inferior quality in order to obtain the competitive advantage of the market because of the fierce market competition. For example, the manufacturers with problems in the spot check can be said to have been marked as unqualified products in the market, and any further market efforts are in vain. After all, this market is an industry with overcapacity. Once there is a word-of-mouth problem, it will soon be abandoned by the market.
For home appliance dealers, the announcement of the supervision and sampling results is a wake-up call for operators. The market is not as good as expected, and manufacturers are still mixed. Dealers should keep an eye on the choice of brands, not to say that they will operate whichever is cheaper. Instead, we should investigate the whole manufacturer, including brand, scale, quality and other aspects, try to choose the products that operate the top brands in the industry, and avoid the passive operation of non-entry brand products due to quality.
For consumers, they should keep their eyes open and do not be fooled when buying products. They should choose well-known brands, such as Fangtai, boss, vantage, SHUAIKANG and other brands specializing in the production of range hoods. Comprehensive household appliance brands can choose Haier, Midea, Skyworth, Siemens and other brands. Try not to touch those miscellaneous brands. Although they seem very affordable in price, they are not only expensive to use, but also have a high failure rate. In fact, comprehensive accounting is not cost-effective, and even personal safety problems will be caused by poor quality.

The range hood is not a high-tech product, and its structure is relatively simple, resulting in unqualified products
