A year and a half a go, my house flooded. I live in a two-story, and the laundry machine for whatever reason was installed on the second floor. In any case, the installation of the machine was fine. However, a simple 10 cent piece, the bracket to kee...

When it comes to tech and consumer goods, I've generally only focused on two channels: in-person buying where I can try things hands-on, or using Amazon. Generally, the first option addresses my concern of knowing what I'm buying, having a tangible p...
