Low resale value. When you can go on eBay and buy another one 2nd hand for less than the price of a repair.
Not helped by the fact that in many cases, the cheapest amps can be more complex and time consuming to repair.

There are a couple of venues that I have issues with and the power in them is completely inadequate for the load they get with bands
It's nothing to do with a lack of confidence in a product but to ensure that I am 100% able to finish that gig. Imagine the problems from not being able to finish a wedding reception because of something like an amp malfunction.
I always carry a spare guitar, spare power sockets and guitar leads. It's the correct thing to do.
When I see guys arguing back up is essential and it's unprofessional to gig without it I always have a twinge of guilt, but not enough to make me do anything about it, and I've gotten away with it so far.
Nowadays I do happen to have a Flyrig 5, not bought as back up but could probably be used as amp back-up in an emergency.
