I guess it really depends on the actual location. The one I went to in Iwate was awesome, not multi-storey but a one-floor, jungle-like layout. Very good food section, bought a rug, travel neckpillow, and some crockery, I'm still using them now after months.

"after months"

I think you and the GP may have different definitions of semi disposable. I personally wouldn't class a few months as a counterpoint.

They didn’t say they broke after months, just that they’re still working fine now, which happens to have been months.

And if they’ve lasted months already, they’ll probably last just as long as anything from any other store.
