Comment (by boonebgorges):

 > It's possible the exclude_from_search parameter is set to true on the
 product post type.

 A good thought - but (a) WooCommerce doesn't set `exclude_from_search` to
 `true`, and (b) even when `exclude_from_search=true`, `WP_Query` by itself
 doesn't change post types based on `exclude_from_search`. (Primary
 `exclude_from_search` filtering happens in `WP::parse_request()`.)

 @subrataemfluence I've installed WooCommerce, created some items, and
 tested the precise code that you've provided, but I was not able to
 reproduce. The `request` SQL string, in both cases, contains
 `wp_posts.post_type = 'product'`.

 I don't have any clear ideas about what might be happening.
 @subrataemfluence Are you able to dig deeper into `WP_Query` to see where
 `post_type` is getting reset?
