That's a shame. I've had my Litter Robot 2 for over a decade and loved it. Considering a replacement soon when it finally reaches end of life. Sounds like I need to look into other options. Anyone know a good alternative?

We've had one from Ana Bath for about 12 years. No issues other than a rubber gasket needed replacing around year 10, which they sent to me at no charge. It was less than $100 on Amazon IIRC.

Nice! Thanks for the info. Looks like Costco has a bundle on sale right now too so I may give it a shot even if I end up with a more expensive shaver as well.

I like the approach Braun took with the series 5. Mine has a battery (that's held up shockingly well over a decade and a half), but you could always plug it in and continue shaving if the battery died. I'll be very disappointed if that's not still the case on newer models.

They weren't cheap, but they were quality. At the cadence I shave I could usually get two years out of one before I noticed it getting dull. For comparison, the last off-brand one I tried was maybe 60% of the price, but lasted around 3 months before breaking mid-shave and coming close to tearing up my skin. So well worth it to me to buy the real deal. I'll gladly buy off-brand whenever possible, but something sharp running over my neck is where I draw the line lol.

I recommend getting prescription lenses for the quest. There's some overpriced commercial ones you can buy or if you have a 3D printer or access to one you can print your own frame inserts and buy cheap lenses to go in them. I recommend the latter option because it's cheaper and if your prescription changes you can just buy new lenses.

I've used a cheap 3D pen to weld smaller prints together. Works pretty well. You have to be quick because once the filament starts to cool it doesn't bind well. It also doesn't look that pretty, but I only use it in areas that aren't visible in the finished product. If you're planning on sanding it after I think you'd be fine.

I'm probably not your target audience, but personally I actively avoid any new subscriptions. I've got more than I want or need already. I'd much rather buy something once and just own it. For a fitness game especially I'd suggest a robust free trial to help users justify the purchase.

I had a similar experience with Dishonored. I got ghost on a few missions since low chaos is more akin to my natural play style, but found it to be more enjoyable to set my own "rules" for my playthrough. It's also a game that's worth a second playthrough just to experience the opposite side of the spectrum. Super fun game any direction you choose, but you'll miss a lot of cool aspects by limiting yourself to one extreme or the other.

Have you considered a Prusa Mini? Unless you need a larger print bed, it's a great starter printer at that price point.

I'm not sure. That's the first I've heard of a fire. It's pretty easy to find in my area, but I can't speak for the rest of the country. I have noticed the price go up some in recent years, but I assumed it was from popularity and just general inflation.

I switched to Printed Solid Jessie filaments after my previous bread and butter supplier, 3D Solutech, went out of business. Jessie is been good so far for a relatively low price. I hope they continue to expand their color lineup because they're still missing a lot of shades I used previously. I'm still searching for a secondary brand to fill those gaps.
