What are some ways in which expensive products can be worse than cheaper ones?

Examples that come to my mind:

* Expensive clothes can be much less convenient to clean
* In expensive hotel rooms it's often harder to figure out how to turn off all the lights
* Expensive restaurants often have less choice in menus

when exerting extra effort translates into cultural capital. Example: when collecting old Porsches or old Ferraris, you can be sure it's more difficult to maintain an old/slower/more unreliable Ferrari than a faster/newer model. But this investment translates into intangible Porsche/Ferrari community cultural cache.
