“Frozen Pizza”: 31 Products That Have Gotten Better Over The Years

According to the OP, Reddit is a great place to ask all sorts of questions, as the responses tend to be quite interesting; hence, their inquiry about the good quality products. But out of all of the answers their question got, “shoelaces” was the one that surprised them the most. “It’s something I would never have thought of,” they told Bored Panda.

And indeed, despite using them arguably every day, shoelaces are something we typically don’t pay that much attention to. But something that’s been around for seemingly forever reportedly had companies competing over who would create the best shoelace, and that ought to make the product’s quality rise.

The redditor shared that the product they believe developed the most is vehicles. “As someone has said before, 100K was once thought to be amazing, but now if you can get 200-300K that is money well spent.” 

According to NBC News, thanks to all sorts of improvements, hitting 100,000 miles with your car—which was once considered an alarming number—is now viewed way differently than it was. However, at around 100,000 or 120,000 miles, maintenance might have to be done.

The OP shared their opinion on the products on the other side of the scale, too. “The type of products that are going downhill nowadays in terms of their quality would be most of the streaming services,” they told Bored Panda.

“To increase rates and still have ads is absurd; but they know someone will continue to pay without a blink of an eye, and here we are. But with raising prices on any product, the margin of customers will get smaller and smaller, eventually reaching the point where instead of having 10M people paying, they’ll have only 1M.”
