why does this unit cost so much more money that the others?

The v3860 includes lots of accessories and extra items to get you started including a 2.5 Qt Quick Marinator, a 1.5 Quart rectangular canister with cheese grater, a Sandwich & Snack Container, a Lunch & Leftover Container, and some bagging material.

I have no idea why it's priced so high. I bought mine at Walmart at a much lower price. This is actually now an older version, too.

Did you answer your own question above? My answer: Yes. I love it. Get it. It works fine. The competitors would rather have you spend big bucks with them instead of saving.

I asked the same question and was told there the same units, the difference was the manuals. The one approved has more warnings in the manual. To be sure download each manual and compare the difference.

Yes? Ridiculous isn't it? I paid $49.00 for the last one I bought. I have now surpassed the cost of the machine. I won't be buying anymore.

Seriously. I've also noticed that a while back too and so my money is mainly being spent elsewhere. These guys are RIPPOFFS. IT'S SUPPOSE TO BE CHEAPER HERE NOT MORE EXPENSIVE!!!

To Wastedyrs: I suggest the older model is more-expensive simply because it IS older....each new generation of chips, digital TVs, etc, are significantly cheaper than prior ones. No exceptions I know of, unless you account for higher functionality or features.

I am guessing that you are looking at two different suppliers. There are different prices for the same thing depending on who you buy it from.

I agree with Robby. I can't understand why people buy this unit rather than the Ubiquiti Networks PICO2HP 2.4GHz 802.11bg High Power which is exactly the same hardware at a fraction of the cost.

To be honest i really dont know.Im a retired audio installer.All i know is in 40 years in the business i have never seen i better value.I purchased mine almost a year ago and i performs like new. Very well made and comes with many attachments that make the unit quite versatile. It has a fabulous heat control you could adjust for many types of jobs.You will never find a better value.

Why hasn't anyone answered this question?? I'm curious to know too why it's so much cheaper too?

It was not twice the cost of all others when I bought it or I would not have. Lets be real here. I cant see any advantage that would justify the cost. If I was shopping today I would buy the Black and white 5614 set. It has flashing lights and 2 figures.

Way too much money, paid $49 for mine! No idea why this one is priced so ridiculously high.

The solutions come with the unit but are ridiculously expensive thereafter.

Is there any reasonable explanation why the ones in color cost more than the black one?

By your question I can't tell what the 'cheaper one listed by you at this link' actually is...there is no link to it...just a link to Amazon. If you could let me know what that other one was I might be able to explain what differences there are. With that in mind...I bought this one because of the durability of this particular unit. I did some research and this one had a much lower failure rate and is supposed to last much longer than most of the others.
