I saw the Bosch at best buy and it seemed super cheap.

Oh ok, yeah mine never leaked, just wouldn’t keep anything cold. It’s a shame as I really liked the look of the KK, the classic was nice and simple, but no good if it stops working, it pissed me off as it was just out of warranty by the time I got around to dealing with it, and they made it a hassle so I didn’t bother. So now I just make sure to mention it when the topic comes up and people can make their decisions with that info.

Look up bed rock sandals. These are bombproof and they do full repairs and resoles

Not sure of name, but there’s “880” printed next to “Fresh Foam” on the tongue and rear heel design.

Yep, and 1 year warranty on KK, 5 years on yeti. My KK had no major damage, just lost vacuum, I’ve heard others have had a similar experience when this has come up on reddit in the past.
Edit: I think there was even a BIFLfail post on them.

Got a Denby in 2017. Love them. Still look great and no chips or cracks or anything.

Whatever you do don’t get a kleankanteen classic. Mine lost vacuum after just less than a year, I’ve got a yeti now and it’s doing well.

I have daffodils that I dug up from an old home site where my grandmother planted them 75 years ago. The house is long gone and the land turned back into woods, but the daffodils still bloom every spring.

Lots of good options below. If an aluminum-free deodorant doesn't seem strong enough, try dusting on a bit of Gold Bond menthol foot powder after the deodorant dries. Actually does a very good job of controlling sweat and odor. (be careful not to breathe it when you put it on)

Yeti are very well made bottles. The 18 Oz is kinda the standard. I have a 18 Oz and a 64 Oz. I use a Yeti sip straw attachment with the bigger bottle.

I've got my stepmom's 22-year-old KitchenAid stand mixer and it works like a charm. I didn't have to change the grease out, but other than that it works perfectly

I’ve got the Owala and bring it everywhere every single day. Big fan. My girlfriend bought one because she loved mine so much

I always said I wouldn’t be a yeti fanboy, but I got a yeti water bottle for Chrissy one year and I’m a massive fan. I live in country Australia and it sits in my car at god knows what temperature. Bottle is almost to hot to pick up water is still ice cold.

It functions very well. This is so petty, but it’s the way that the racks load that drives me crazy. We vacation at our friends house every year and they have an Asko and it is my favorite dishwasher to load ever. Our other friends that travel there mention the same thing. I know they’ve had it for at least 20 years at this point and it is still functioning perfectly.
ETA— we thought they had a Miele which is why we bought ours. (We needed a dishwasher stat and ordered online during the pandemic shortage.)

Native plants! We got into planting native plants in our yard because they are good for biodiversity. They are also almost zero maintenance, so now we’ve converted nearly our whole yard to native plants. You’ll need to look up what that means for your area, but I have wildflowers in my front yard that come back every year more prolific than the last.

5 years ago we bought a new build in a master planned community where everyone got Bosch appliances (range/oven, microwave, and dishwasher). Everyone HATES (haaaaates) their appliances and many have been replaced. The ovens vary wildly in cooking temps (some run super cold, some run hot) and the warming drawers broke. Everyone I know has already replaced the microwaves. The dishwashers are hanging on but do a crap job. I will never buy a Bosch. I know it’s not an isolated case for our home bc there’s a neighborhood message board with hundreds of homeowners and people are always asking for help w their Bosch appliances. Oh and the builders have stopped installing Bosch in the new phases.
