No problem!

I have a Cuisinart stainless steel stock pot with built in strainer in the glass lid that I love. I'm sure they have other pieces with the same kind of lid. I also highly recommend All Clad - I have their hard-anodized cookware, but i think they may have an all stainless line as well. The quality and lifetime warranty is amazing; and their customer service is top notch.

You cannot ask about comfort online. Ever. Its like asking for your next album purchase, movie to see or person to date....these are personal matters and you make go buy my recommendation and the boots will hurt like hell and/or you are a knucklehead and buy a size 12W when you are a Brannock 13AA.

Durability comes from goodyear welt construction. Ask/look for those words as many "great boots" makers have both goodyear welt boots and disposable boots, so if you don't see the words, keep looking. Examples of who sell both are Red Wing and Timberland.

I’ve had a pair for a number of years and haven’t had the inner portion peel. The only part wearing out is the sole. Not sure why yours is peeling, did they get wet at some point?

It survived being thrown at/through a wall/door/spouse I bet.

Normal wear and tear. Get it fixed before you need to do it for the entire cork bed which gets expensive. I found an experienced cobbler to do that on a pair that was 20 years old and now they are good as new, since most of it technically is.

Retro51 makes nice rollerballs and ballpoints. For fountain pens, the $5 disposable Pilot V-Pen (also known as the Varsity) is surprisingly good.

I don’t know, I think the dust makes it.

I’ve been making pizza dough and other breads pretty stead for four years with mine, no issues.

repeating what the other person said. not a manufacturer defect. normal wear and tear.

also look into the preventative maintenance like the sealants (talk to the shoe guys)

I love my Tactile Turn pens. I use Parker refills in them and have never been more satisfied.

I’ve got the same one! Been using it for 25 years!

(Mine’s a bit cleaner tho, lol)

You get what you pay for. They are at the lower end of the Goodyear Welted price scale for a reason. They are also mass produced so it’s best in this case to purchase them in person so you can visually inspect them first. I personally would not waste my money on something in this price range because better can be purchased. Then again there are those not even willing to pay what it cost to purchase something in this price range. You just have to figure out what your expectations are and what your willing to pay for. Personally my expectations are higher and I have no problem spending more to get better.

General Electric model 7-4634.

Sure, will use it. Thanks a lot!

They had style back then

Twisbi pens are great quality and very serviceable as well!

Exactly! http://rwrd.io/ec57f7y use my code to get 25% off. It just gives me point is all.

What name/model number is this bad boy?

I have exactly the same!

we use Apilco porcelain from Williams Sonoma. we wanted large white plates for our wedding and got the Grande model. well 19 years later and these are still our everyday dishes. I put them directly on the gas stove to heat them, under the broiler to finish off a dish,and we have not lost one. not even a chip in any! they are clean, big, and a nice white that will compliment any food you put on them.

Probably need to resole them. Normal shoe maintenance! You want to do so before it wears into the cork, or the repair will be more expensive.

I really like the wear on the Stanley. Very neat

Indubitably

I wouldn't bat an eye if you told me this spent 2 days in a volcano. Checks out.
