If there is glass in the pump the pump probably wasn’t broken as the pump impeller is driven by a magnetic field through the plastic so there’s isn’t much to break, I’ve pulled broken glass out from our dishwasher twice and it’s still working fine, if you’re even remotely handy it’s not hard to fix most dishwasher problems yourself.

If I persuade anyone to get a pair, you should know that the sizing runs 1 size small, so size up. Also, they will make your feet smell terrible even if you don’t have smelly feet. I suggest buying ballet socks!

Edit- You definitely need an entire size up

I use a Keysmart because I used to lose my keys too easily (I've even lost them off of carabineers clipped to my belt loops) and I really like that I can have a carabineer that doesn't open so easily, the keys don't jangle and flop anymore, I can have a multi tool and a pocket knife and a flashlight integrated, so it's an all-around EDC for me.

I ask myself that same question about every 6 months as I get lazy and finally decide to unload all the shit from my pockets. The big work ring? Leave it at work. All the backups? Secure at home.

Current rotation is:

1 car key, in my pocket. 1 house key, in my work bag 1 work key, on a belt clip with my work ID card, on my belt. 1 backup work key, in my work bag.

Maximum 2 keys on my person at any one time, and minimal chance of losing more than one of them.

They all live on individual hooks by my front door, so if I get to my car without a car key, I can tell right away that I also don’t have my belt work key, then I shamefully go back inside for both.
