Pics will take some time but if you really want me to send you some down the road If we purchase anything from there I can.

It looks like my city has multiple stores that “carry” this line so I will follow up with them. The ranges under 10k could possibly work for us but I worry about how easy it would be to get it repaired if there is problems. Any idea if the parts are easy to access? Would a general repair person know how to navigate it?

The cabinets are absolutely gorgeous and would 100% work for the kitchen.

Makita, primarily because their batteries can be replaced easily and work in the older tools. Also for the larger tools and yard equipment they simply add extra battery slots instead of designing a new battery

Floyd Home. Made in Detroit. I have had my sofa w/chaise for over two years. It breaks down easily to move, is high enough to get a vacuum under it, and the fabric is durable and easy to clean. I live with 3 cats and you wouldn't know it. It is also super comfortable to sit and sleep on.

I second u/Muncie4 's assessment of Rowenta. Distinctly better quality than others that I have tried (i.e. Sunbeam, Black and Decker and other typical U.S. based brands, though they are all made in China now.) Better is defined by quick and even heat across the full surface, which leads to faster and easier ironing. Never had a problem with dependability.

Yes! I have my red jester from 2004 still. I travel with it everywhere still.

You should get one of the newer ones because a light lights up when you put on too much pressure.

I second that

I 100% agree. This was the worst $7k I’ve ever spent.

I used sail tape on mine a few years ago and it's still going strong now. Pretty inconspicuous too

Outdoors-themed stores (LL Bean, Eddie Bauer, Orvis, REI, Cabela’s, army surplus, etc.) are usually a good place to find high-quality shirts. Winter boots too, though shopping around for the best price is worth doing.

My family has had one since 2010 or 2011, it's absolutely fantastic. I bought one for myself in 2018 when I got my own place.

Many colors available. I trim the corners round. It lasts for years.

I have a bunch of the Simply Store ones too, and these basic lids have been my favorite of all the styles I’ve tried. Simple to use, good reliable seal. I haven’t experienced any leaking.

How? I'm in Ireland

No it's how the zip was sown on it catches on the coat fabric and gets caught

I have a few and they are absolutely worth it. I would pay retail if I had too.

This person is definitely playing wow

The square pyrex containers I have (Simply Store series) are stackable since the sides are slightly angled. Mine are decades old and still going strong. No chipping at all. I have replaced a few of the plastic lids, which are easy to find online.

Keep your old kitchen aids, the newer ones past a certain point are cheap generic shit. Older ones hold up much longer than the new models.

I'm speaking from personal experience!

Check out crandall office too. They buy used chairs (10+ years old), clean and refurbish them to mend the foam and replace all the upholstery. Each chair is then warrantied for another 12 years through them.
You can probably get Steelcase chairs cheaper on craigslist/fb marketplace/furniture liquidators, but remember that they will need to be cleaned.
If you go marketplace route, don't discount the steelcase drive. It's now discontinued, but I've done my entire PhD in that chair. It has been in use since 2002 and aside from fabric rips, there's no problem with it. The rest of the floor is outfitted with them and are no worse for wear after 20+ years. You can maybe find this for $10-$120 used, but know that there is limited options for parts replacement. If I could have found one, I would have used it for my home office.
For modern chairs from Steelcase, my recommendation is the Amia chair (not air) which has good structural integrity, modest height but not intensity lumbar support, and adjustable recline tension. The leap is a very common recommendation, but tends to have a stiffer seat, more adjustable lumbar support, and a bit more available angle of recline. I'd avoid the Gesture, series 1, series 2, or other models from Steelcase, but YMMV.
At crandall or BTOD, you're likely to pay 4-600ish for a refurbished Amia. If you buy online, only buy from these two. Madison Office Furniture looks cheap, but their "Open Box" deal is referring to the fact that the chair/parts making the chair have been out of a box before. Typically for 10+ years... The misleading representation should tell you all you need to know on them.

Have a look at their metal containers too: https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/ikea-365-food-container-rectangular-stainless-steel-10497801/

I've got both the glass and the metal containers, and the metal containers just stack way better.

Rowenta and T-FAL are the BIFL iron brands. Use and type of clothing don't matter when buying. Some models come with a sacrificial anode so you can freely use tap water, otherwise best practice is distilled water use.

Boards are harder as there is no consensus and this varies more on YOU than us as some like small ones, some large as this is an ergonomics question vice lifespan as there is no lifespan winner. A piece of wood wrapped in an old wool blanket will do in practice.

Well at least you know about and will enjoy your new La Cornue stove, post pics soon!

I got one of this style from Starbucks as a gift for accrued points from buying drinks. It’s aluminum shelled, three piece and seems like it will last for quite a while.
