3) Why is service quality more difficult to define than product quality?
Answer: While services and production share many attributes, services have more diverse
quality attributes than products. For example, a product like a personal computer is typically
evaluated on its merits, and it makes little difference to the user whether the person that
assembled the computer was in a bad mood. Service settings are more complex; thus quality is
more difficult to define. A customer of a restaurant, for example, evaluates the quality of the
restaurant not only on the merits of the food, but also on the demeanor of the employees, the
speed of the service, the location of the restaurant, the pleasantness of the surroundings, and so
forth.
