I like the idea for the site and I like the actual site too, but I find it somewhat frustrating how often their recommendations are no longer available for purchase, or their articles say "hang on, this will be updated soon!" and you never know when "soon" is.
- ropeladder 10y agoDefinitely agree with this. Here's hoping that with the Time's extra resources they will be able to keep more up to date.
- tbihl 10y agoJust had this problem last week with the sweet home. I ended up being from a sporting goods store instead of Amazon, but I pretty much knew there was going to be some rust from the long storage time of the discontinued product. It turned out to be only a minor issue. It's a little frustrating how really I can look at a website or product line and reliably make a judgment like "they made a good product in gen 1/2, but now they're in the gen 3/4 cash out phase where they cut costs and make huge margins on the product before their reputation catches up with the new cost-cutting." It shows how often I see it. My wife and I are missing some significant things in our apartment, but I intend to keep dragging my feet so I can acquire high-quality things as I get the time to research and the money to buy them. Disposable crap isn't worth my time. Then again, maybe all the mid-30-something's here are laughing at me right now because I'm just doing what everyone does once they mature and become experienced.
