You will find higher priced items tend to rate lower in satisfaction for 2 reasons.
1.) A person pays more they expect far more from the product.
2.) It has been proven psychologically people in higher income brackets tend to expect to be heard more, there for file more complaints hence the lower ratings.
Just think about it a low income person gets a second hand car that has a door handle falling off and an AM radio sitiing on the floor yet they are happy it gets them to work and home everyday. This is just Human nature.
When Sony TV's dominated the tech world they were rated #1 in quality but at the same time they where also rated #1 in customer complaints!
Figure that one out...
