What makes a product high quality? Obviously, a products' ability to perform its underlying function properly is the number one factor, and depending on what the product is, other aspects like aesthetics, ease-of-use, and brand determine how we perceive quality. But when you really consider products that people perceive as "high-quality", the perceptions stem not just from how well the product works in the short term, but more from how well the product performs in the long run, its lifespan. That's why, much like a car or a laptop, a solar panels' ability to perform better for longer largely determines its quality, as the longer it performs its function, the better return on investment it provides. So a major question when considering what panels to install is then, what brand of panel is the most durable, and lasts the longest?
