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.

MODERATORS
Bare in mind that whatever you buy, stainless or plastic, the first thing to actually break if you take well care of it that is, is most likely the heat element itself. I don't know of any brand that sells kettles with replaceable heating element but would be nice. Second also remember ergonomics. Steel is heavy and can corrode while a simple sturdy plastic kettle is much lighter and won't corrode.
