I have the same one! Though lately the motor sounds a bit sad when I try to make my bread in it.

Reply to comment by Yourname942 in Long Slot toaster with heating element on both sides of slot? by Yourname942
That is definitely not a typical toaster. Where are you buying your toasters from? I'm also in the US and have never seen one like this in my life. You can find a decent toaster anywhere, even at Walmart or something.
ETA: I skimmed through the first two videos you shared and these are standard toasters with heating elements on each side of each slot. I have the 4-slot version of the Walmart toaster in the second video and yes it has some unevenness in toasting but it always toasts both sides.
Sorry, I think people want to help, but I think you're a little confused about how toasters work.

That same friend's Roomba also does not smell, but it has an auto empty dock which sucks the Roomba's contents into a vacuum bag and that does smell for the ~10 seconds it runs but the smell dissipates since it runs for such a short time.

From my experience, old thermos work better than the newer ones, just gotta watch out for rust

I have the same thing! I love it, but I think the vacuum is failing after taking one too many tumbles down a flight of stairs after falling out of my bag... It's the best way to burn yourself on the way home with the tea you brewed in the morning.

For true Americans who reject colonial British units, that's 0.06 football fields and 30,952 Big Macs. For the rest of us, that's 5.5 meters and 6.5 metric tons.

Reply to comment by splitsleeve in Boots that will last by GrilledCatEggs
Being barefoot doesn’t mean your feet are under load. So people are usually barefoot when at home or just hanging around. So minimal steps at minimal intensity. Our feet evolved to work with minimal covering so cushion does not need to be there. On the flip side cushion tends to allow for bad habits when walking and running as the cushion protects but long term those habits can be bad.
There are many ways to strengthen your feet. But the more time you can spend doing things with intensity in minimal shoes or barefoot can increase foot strength. So getting minimal running shoes and working out in them or running short distances in them and slowly increasing it. But i really think foot health is neglected. I largely wear nothing with cushion and spend much of my days on my feet at 47. Also am a runner and do that in minimal shoes with little to no foot pain. I wouldn’t do a marathon in them but I routinely do 10-15kms at a time in them without issue or foot pain.

That is correct. And closed when tested.

Thank you! I feel dumb because I was misreading the type face and searching for the wrong company.

Reply to Bifl minimalistic flatware? by mdoto
We bought an IKEA Dragon flatware set back when we started grad school ~11 years ago and it's held up great, zero issues. A couple pieces have been for a spin in the garbage disposal and haven't even rusted where they got dinged up. It's super minimalist, and, I think, pretty affordable. We recently ordered another set to replenish ours because I don't know why, I don't know how, but flatware just disappears with kids in the house.

Of course. I can’t seem to find any info on it. However, based on some of these replies, I was incorrect on the actual brand name. I miss read it.

Nuevo Americana. It's a brand from Paraguay. They have a website but I don't know if they ship internationally.

Can buy an Aeron for ~$200, too if a bit lucky.
Or a Leap 2.

Zoji keeps things so hot. Incredibly hot that my brother hated it and returned the one I lent him cuz his coffee kept burning his tongue.
