$750 e-bikes are not suitable as daily commuter bike - they use cheapest and generally unreliable components if you put miles on bicycle. They are ok for occasional weekend ride with kids but not much beyond that. (essentially quality wise they are equivalent to $100 Walmart bike)

Low end bike suitable for commute is more like $1000-$1200. $2000 is mid range that stops requiring monthly tuning and use some brand name components.
