A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

I also got one of these recently. The build quality wasn't as good as I had hoped, but it's a fun little device and seems like it'll last a long time. The software is a tad low quality, and I'm worried that it'll never be updated again since the device is apparently discontinued. On the flip side, it's not bad for a cheap low power device, and it's easy to navigate.
I love the physical buttons. That was a huge selling point for me.
This device does support Bluetooth, and I was able to pair it with the Beats Flex. It's weird though because the player and headphones use different volume adjustments, which is one of my low-quality software complaints.
Personally, I would've rather had an iPod nano 3rd gen.
