Thanks.
Also, looks like legit stuff that "seems" like it could be BIFL. Well, maybe not all the wood stuff, but still quality shite.

I know for me, the battery life is super dependent on keeping the filter clean, makes a huge difference. It is washable with water and should be done once a month.
Also, running on non-max mode works pretty well, and is super important to use the bare floor attachment for bare floors and the other one for carpet. I could see if the whole house was carpet the battery would have less runtime. And of course, keeping that filter clean is so, so important!

Dyson cordless is one of the best purchases I have ever made!! I vacuum way more than I ever did, and it really SUCKS! No joke. Dyson set the bar pretty high.

That is good to know, I was thinking of getting the scissors attachment for the edge pro but if I don't have to do both sides, then maybe one of the edge pro stones would be plenty fine too.

Truth. Imma get one of these pairs of scissors (not the OP though, but some in the comments) and use by BIFL Edge Pro Sharpener on them for true BIFL scissors!

OOOoh, those look nice! No plastic handles either, they definitely look like BIFL scissors! Thanks for the link, a pair of these is on my list now!

Somehow I am having a hardtime believing that plastic handle scissors will last for life. Metal handle scissors will last longer, yah? But maybe not as comfortable?

Reply to comment by racketmaster in Which of the international clothing brands have durable quality? by _SlowRain_
Yes, I think it is the 50/50. I didn't know that t-shirts could be made that well. Like WTF?

American Apparel brand makes t-shirts that last for years. I keep waiting for them to wear out so I can get new shirts but they just keep on going. Some are at least 10 years old and still don't have holes and still have all their stitches, after tons of washes.

Kuhl makes some solid outdoor clothing. My wife bought a pair of outdoor pants, they were well over $100 but are just amazing.

Reply to BiFL Towels? Need new towels soon, looking for suggestions! by adrianmakedonski
I bought some 100% Egyptian cotton bath towels 15 years ago and they didn't absorb well at all. I paid a premium price for them too. So I held on to them and just thought they would break themselves in over time. Nope. They never did. So, just because something is made with certain cotton doesn't mean it is good. A trusted review matters, so thanks for asking this here. I'm gonna research some of the recommendations here!
