You ever notice how store brand tools feel like they're made of melted down garden furniture? That $150 Husky or Kobalt wrench probably had bad QC from the factory... the click mechanism might not even be calibrated right. Same thing happened to me with a Pittsburgh torque wrench from Harbor Freight. Snapped a head bolt on my old Silverado and the manager told me 'you get what you pay for.' Found a beat up Proto at a flea market for forty bucks and it's still dead on after three years. Sometimes the cheap stuff just doesn't hold up under real heat and stress.

Wait, is this really like some big shift in society or just people being practical for once? I mean yeah, I get what you're saying but isn't renting a bread machine for a week just smart? Who wants to drop a hundred bucks on something they might hate using after the first loaf turns into a brick. I've got a buddy who bought one of those fancy pasta makers and it's been sitting in his garage for two years. So maybe renting first is just common sense before you commit to owning another dust collector.

Those tiny foot muscles are real. Feels weird but works.

Did you try changing ALL your passwords after that happened?

Did you see that news story last month about the guy who tried to install his own and nearly flooded his whole basement? Made me think twice about doing it myself. Your price sounds pretty fair for a new gas unit with install. I used a guy named Mike for mine, but he's booked out for weeks now. What kind of warranty did yours come with?
