MODERATORS
Hitachi should have just fully embraced it and advertise it everywhere across their product lines to distinguish themselves from the competition.
Buying a backhoe or front end loader? Now introducing the Hitachi Backhoe with Magic Wand ~~massager~~ pleasure device! Turn your backhoe into a front hoe!
I kind of love that this company makes everything from nuclear reactors to tractors to the industry standard vibrator.
We had some Hitachi trains here in Australia. "Riding a Hitachi with my friends," was a common weekend activity for me.
Oh and we sometimes catch the train too.
They don't make it anymore, they sold it off a couple years ago because of "optics".
This makes me sad.
Did quality drop off?
Presumably not significantly, I hear the NYT just recommended it as the best vibrator for most people.
It's the running theme with Japanese zaibatsus and Korean chaebols, they expanded into manufacturing everything when those markets were still new. Samsung also produced stuff from tanks, fighter jets and trains to phones and monitors (although iirc they spun off the military manufacturing into a separate company).
They made amazing boomboxes back in 80s. We have one still operational.
They used to make carburetors too.
Don't judge, everybody has a bad day sometimes.
