I live in Canada and likewise had finally had it with shitty boots that only lasted two seasons. I bought Bogs, the Arcata knit style and they are fantastic. Super warm and comfy, lots of traction, waterproof and solid.

I was looking at Bogs but I was confused by the handle design at the top… doesn’t snow get in your boot?

Nope, same as the commenter below it’s never been a problem for me. But I missed the part of your post about wearing them inside - they are veryyyyyyyy warm so I wouldn’t recommend them for indoors.

I found my bogs fit really close to my leg so there wasn't actually any space in between for the snow to get into. They are super warm, but I would definitely recommend changing out of them if you are going inside (they don't breathe well so my feet were extremely sweaty all day). I have found my best winter boots have been a leather pair - I've been able to get a shoe repair person to repair them which has extended their life multiple times.
