I haven't actually used my alarm clock as an alarm in years, I just think it's nice to be able to see the time if I wake up in the middle of the night.

I can tell you that the Toros are really good too. You easily take it apart, clean it and be good to go for a long time.

Honda won’t die til you do. And it might decide to keep living after that, too.
That said, the Toro prolly has a Briggs motor on it which are also quite reliable.

Honda, just make sure there’s no excessive gimmicks that could break on it.

It is not, but planned obsolescence is a thing. I had an $8 toaster last me about 20 years, because I got it in the 90s. Begrudgingly got rid of it after wedding registry and have not had one last more than 5 years since, even at 5x the price of that beautiful bitch.

Just a note - the pants should have buttons, the suspenders have buttonholes

I don’t have good experience with any windows laptops. MacBook, though expensive, it’s much more peace of mind and I’m using mine for almost 5 years now. No issues !

I get it and I'll admit they're not the lightest coats but I personally like the weight, it adds character and a feeling of quality

I bought a $15 amazon clock that looked really nice, blue numbers, and could make 2 alarms, loved it... but after 3 months it stopped waking me up, starting on an important day where I could've had a good job.

The m1 MacBooks are very fast, especially compared to similarly priced windows machines.

If you have to wake up when it’s still dark outside this is a complete game changer.
There really is no right or wrong way to add light to your morning routine. Either look for smart light bulbs (which are surprisingly affordable and you don’t need to have a multi color one) that you can customize with a schedule of when to get brighter or look into a sunrise alarm clock.

And weight/ergonomics. Modern drills are so much more comfortable to work with over long periods.
