Own It for Life – A curated list of durable products
- chaffneue 12y agoThis might be something to build an awesome community around. Giving users way to add more than just comments: stuff like a way for the public to do more than suggest products - add them to a pool of incumbents that others can talk about immediately, a way to discuss personal experiences, ratings, photographic examples of products after x years of use - examples of failures after x time stuff like that. I'd love to see a 100 year old Lodge pan or a pair of those keen sandals after 3 years :) Obviously clothes and cast iron posts have significantly different lives.
- dwich 12y agoThe BuyItForLife subreddit has some of the things you mention: http://www.reddit.com/r/BuyItForLife/ http://www.reddit.com/r/BuyItForLife/
- Zaheer 12y agoA lot of these Amazon referral link sites have popped up. Most do a good job of curating products but it does bring up the question of conflict of interest.
- tomhschmidt 12y agoI'd love to see small write-ups or justifications as to why these particular products were selected. Also, I'm having some issue with the infinite scrolling.
- stochastica 12y agoWork gloves, work boots, work pants...? Regardless of quality, those will hardly last a few years, assuming you do any actual work with them...
