I have a hard time buying things online because of this. Like I'd like to have a monitor mount to have more desk space, but they all look similar but they're probably all pretty shit, so I have no idea how to get a good one.
Or I need oven gloves (my current mitts have a hole in them that burned my finger, causing me to drop the tray and accidentally grab it with my other hand that didn't have a mitt), do I buy official Ove' Gloves™ at $18 per glove or some brandless gloves that are $10 total? Is there actually a quality difference?
I bought my monitor and TV mounts from monoprice after a coworker recommended them. They just rebadge OEM products, but at least they have a minimum quality standard and list accurate measurements and weight capacities.
Mounts for monitors/TVs are either cheap with varying quality when bought online, or wildly expensive (also with varying quality) when bought from a big box store.
just bought a dremel brand dremel that broke on the second time i pressed the button. not the first; it worked the first time. but it gave up the second time

buy the cheap product once. if it lasts a while, congrats, it was worth it. if it craps out, buy the expensive product. aka the harbor freight rule
This is what I’ve tried but even the “nice” products feel like shit nowadays
haha :yea:
