A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

After narrowing down the "high velocity" tower fan options on Amazon two years ago to two options that seemed to have the best reviews, I ended up going with the "Dreo Pilot Pro", ordering two and for some reason being sent three. Anecdotal experience of course, and their use has been largely limited to the summer, but they seem to work a bit better than the Lasko fans they replaced without being distinctly louder. Specific settings probably depend on the exact model one chooses, but the ones I got have nine speed options.
