Personally I have very low tolerance for bugs.
I'm 100% with don on this, my personal tolerance for bugs is very low. The same is true for stupid UI designs btw. For me it's mostly Agilent and Tek at work and now LeCroy at home. I also bought a Siglent SDS1102CNL for a project that required a 'throw away' scope. The hardware was surprisingly well built (the encoders could have wiggled a little less, and the rotary knobs could have been a bit less cheap, though), but the software side was really poor. Aside from that the UI was obviously designed by someone who knows nothing about proper UX design, there were quite a few instances where the scope didn't do what it was expected to do. Trying again often lead to the desired result but for a measurement tool this is unacceptable. I'm using a scope because I want to check some UUT for faults or because the UUT has a known fault. And really, the last thing I want is having to guess if it's the device or the scope that causes the problem.
I had quite a few DSO for personal use (Philips PM3320A, HP 54510A, HP 54542A, some 54600 Series, some Teks), and while the very old ones were certainly limited in capability they still have been highly reliable and always did what I expected them to do. The same is true for my current LeCroy scopes. For example, my WaveRunner LT264M is now 11 years old (it's one of the last WR2 Series scopes), but I yet have to come across a software bug or an instance where it doesn't do what I expect it to do. I can also say the same for my Windows based WaveRunner 64Xi. Obviously there have been bugs in their software, too, but most of them were minor problems in certain use cases, and LeCroy was (and for the 64Xi still is) pretty good in fixing them quickly.
These low cost China scopes probably are fine if you can live with the bugs, and they also put some pressure on the big names in terms of pricing. But the Chinese have to learn that they have to get the software right *before* putting a product on the market. This may not be that important for cell phones or media players, but it definitely is for test and measurement stuff.
Which is one of the reasons why I think that used big name scopes are still a good alternative to a new China low-end scope.
