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.

Dyson? Not sure how they are today but my old Dyson vacuum still runs really well so they're doing something right. I know they make fans but I don't know how long they last
I have 3 Dyson fans running right now (24/7), two are towers. One of those was a refurb, testing if they are worth their astronomical price. Had that one since 2016, no problems. Same with the other (newer) two.
I know they're much pricier than a really cheap fan, but I wonder if they're reliable enough to be cheaper long-term than buying replacements as the cheap ones break down.
Still, I'm glad to see a luxury brand is actually high quality for once and not just a fancy coat of pain on the same old disposable crap everyone seems to sell these days
