Should I Buy It? Is It Worth the Recommendation?

A few days ago, I saw someone mention in this sub that the Jackery 1000 V2 has a great Black Friday discount. I’ve been thinking about updating my camping gear, and I noticed the price has dropped even further recently. It’s now $349, which is around 56% off the original price. Has anyone here used this product? I think this is the lowest price ever? Would love to hear your thoughts before I pull the trigger!

I want a bowl, food-safe or food-unsafe, that looks cool in some way.

I need something to hold loose clips in my kitchen, like ten of them. That's my only requirement. Please recommend me a bowl that would make guests say, "hmm, that's an interesting bowl."

Got an IPL device or waxing set in black Friday season for my hairy body?

So, I have considered buying an at home hair removal device for a while. Recently I just use razor but it seems to be useless for me. Now I’m thinking about trying waxing or an IPL device. Waxing’s cheaper but temporary, IPL’s pricier but might last longer. Help me decide!

Looking for small dining set recommendation that seats 4

Hello,

New to this subreddit, I’m hoping to find some suggestions for a small dining table to invest in that would seat up to 4 people. I live with my wife and 2yo daughter in a 1000 sqft apartment and we’re looking for something that would be economical and relatively compact in size. I recently discovered folding dining sets which has intrigued me with their ability to expand or collapse in size to help things feel less cramped. These seem to be a bit of a niche design and I’ve been having a hard time finding any trustworthy or at least recognizable brands. We do not have a truck which adds another complication so it has to be something where some assemble is required to fit it in my sedan, or ability to ship straight to home. We are trying to stay within a $500 budget so I realize I may be asking for the impossible lol.

Two potential candidates I’ve come across are the following:

IKEA Norden set: https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/norden-kyrre-table-and-4-stools-birch-birch-s79568891/

The biggest drawback is we would need to head out of town to travel to the nearest warehouse which would be nearly 300 miles (R.I.P 😭🪦) which I’m really not wild about about doing. I’d also consider investing in the table only with a different chair option as the barstools seem a bit uncomfortable which would bump the price up considerably.

Red Barrel Studio set on Wayfair:

https://www.wayfair.com/furniture/pdp/red-barrel-studio-portrain-45-w-drop-leaf-folding-dining-set-5-pieces-space-saving-1-table-4-assembled-chairs-w111038689.html?piid=875222073 Portrain 45' W Drop Leaf Folding Dining Set 5 Pieces, Space Saving 1 Table 4 Assembled Chairs

I Love the idea of chair storage for the Wayfair set, but worried about lack of reviews and the low star reviews point out red flags that give the impression its pretty cheap build quality.

All suggestions welcome!

Which one of these sweaters would last longer and be warmer?

I don't know if this is the right spot to post this. If there is a better place to ask this question let me know. My job involves standing outside in northern Illinois for 7+ hours a day. I'm looking for a good sweater to use as a mid layer that will be as warm as possible and last a long time. My budget is $150. Ive decided on getting one of these two sweaters from peregrine, but I don't know which one is warmer.

https://www.peregrineclothing.co.uk/collections/mens-jumpers/products/ford-crew?colour=Navy

https://www.peregrineclothing.co.uk/products/waffle-crew-neck-jumper?variant=43001175703791

The waffle knit is a heavier weight, but it's made out of regular wool, while the ribbed sweater is merino, and still heavy according to the site. Would the merino one be warmer despite being a bit lighter? This is very low stakes, but I can be a bit of a perfectionist with stuff like this. Thanks in advance.

Want to buy a home backup generator

I’m very interested in the Jackery Explorer 2000 v2, but its price has been fluctuating recently during the Black Friday sales season. Initially, it was 40% off, then it went up to 50% off a few days ago. Now, with an additional promo code, the discount can reach 53% off. The Amazon Black Friday Sale has already started—this should be the lowest price, right?

Good Value Portable Power Station

I just got the Portable Power Station I’ve been eyeing for a while at 50% off! It’s from Jackery, which I’ve seen so many people using. It’s even smaller than my pet dog, but it can power my whole short camping trip without a problem. I feel really confident in the quality. The model I got is 1000 V2, which is still on sale with a promo code for 50% off. https://slickdeals.net/f/17880900-399-33-jackery-explorer-1000-v2-1070wh-lifepo4-portable-power-station-at-amazon?utm_source=rss&utm_content=9&utm_medium=RSS2

Help me find a comfortable chair

Hi, I'm looking for a new chair since I'll be moving in a few days. I've found I'm just a little too heavy and/or too tall for most of the chairs I've found. All I know is that I'm 6'5" (196cm) and approximately 290lbs (132kg). Here is what I'm looking for in a chair

Must-haves:

  1. On wheels or at least easily movable
  2. Padded seat and backrest
  3. Recline/Tilt (Doesn't have to turn into a bed but at least recline/ tilt into a comfortable resting position)

High-priority:

  1. Head/neckrest

Nice-to-have:

  1. Extra-wide seat
  2. Padded armrest

Most importantly, the chair should be comfortable to use.

Do you have any suggestions? I'm looking for chairs under $200. If it's absolutely necessary to spend over $200, then recommend me the cheapest chair that you would actually recommend. Just please don't recommend me anything over $500.

Bluetooth adapter with USB port recommendations

Hey guys! I'm new here. I have a music system pretty old one and it still works fine but the only problem is that it doesn't have a bluetooth connection option nor usb port input where you can connect with your pen-drive. My music system only supports aux cable input and RCA cable inputs. So I'm just looking for a bluetooth adapter which also comes with a usb port option. Now i searched and found this( ive attached the screenshot) the only thing that satisfies both my needs.

Should i go for this or is there something else with a reasonable price out there in the market!? Appreciate the help in advance.

How has the idea of getting "good value" out of the things you guy changed in today's economy?

Just like the title, I'm curious to know: Have you noticed any changes in how you go about getting good value for good quality products?

Title typo: not "guy", "buy"!

Heater for large office space?

The bullpen at my workplace (about the size of the average American high school classroom, *1.5) is freezing cold and no one knows why. My manager has approved of me bringing a heater/radiator.

According to Google, it's hard for a small heater (the one I currently own) to warm a large room. So I'm looking for ones that are maybe larger/more powerful.

My biggest concerns are fire safety and efficiency/environmental friendliness. I'm willing to spend up to about $130. I know someone else asked about a heater in this sub before, but I think this request might result in different suggestions due to room size.

Thanks in advance!

Space Heater that can heat an entire room well?

I don't mind spending a bit more to have one that will be able to heat an entire room instead of just a small space it's pointed at. I need a space heater that can heat an entire room.

I used to live in a place temporarily where the bedroom had a space heater that was a long bar, kind of looked like a soundbar. And it worked AMAZINGLY. The entire bedroom turned into a SAUNA the first night I used it. I had to turn it off halfway through the night because it was too hot even though that was in Winter.

Anybody know of a good brand or what type of space heater I'd be looking for?

Feedback on My New Backpacking Bag

I'm planning a backpacking trip with my girlfriend and wanted to upgrade my gear. Previously, I've used Sierra Designs and Deuter bags, but this time I wanted to try something more professional and durable.

I ended up buying one from Kathmandu and it's a carry-on trolley. The main reason I chose this bag is because it's incredibly light, weighing just 1.6 kg, which is much less than other bags I've used. It also has a moderate 40L capacity, which I think should be enough for our trip. Plus, it's environmentally friendly, made with 93% recycled nylon 6.

I think these features are great, but I'm not sure if I made the right choice. Has anyone used this bag or have any thoughts on it? Did I miss anything or should I be worried about any potential issues?

Looking for a laptop (budget increase)

I posted here a few days ago but seeing the real prices of a lot of gaming laptops I adjusted my request:

I’m looking to buy a laptop in the U.S. with a budget of arround $1500 but I am willing to go up close to 2000 if absolutely necessary. I might consider refurbished or used ones. My main focus is on performance and build quality. While it would be nice for it to be light I do not care if its as heavy as a brick.
I don’t have a preference for screen size. I need it to run programs like Inventor, Fusion 360, NX, and ANSYS for my engineering work, and my current laptop struggles with these, making it super frustrating. I also play games like Hearts of Iron 4, Crusader Kings 3, Stellaris, and Europa Universalis, which, even though they have low system requirements, slow down like crazy on a bad CPU and RAM. On top of that, I also play more demanding games like Red Dead Redemption 2, No Man’s Sky, and FIFA 23.
I’m just looking for a reliable laptop that can last me around four years. And, while I know fans can be loud, I had one laptop that made this awful whistling noise, so I’d like to avoid that if possible. Let me know if you have any recommendations!
