Copy/Paste of link because great human:

If you're planning a high-end kitchen renovation, chances are you're working with a designer, and if you're working with a designer, she's probably mentioned Sub-Zero as a possible refrigerator to consider. Among pricey, built-in models, Sub-Zero is perhaps the most recognized brand. But is it worth the $7,500 or more you'll have to pay?

Speaking strictly in terms of performance, the answer is no. Just within the built-in category, Thermador and Jenn-Air are two competitors that cost slightly less than Sub-Zero and earned higher overall scores in Consumer Reports' latest refrigerator Ratings, largely on the strength of their quieter operation. The Sub-Zero B1-36U, $7,700, is particularly noisy, which could be an issue if you're sound-sensitive.

Looking across all types of refrigerators, the highest overall scores belong to several French-door bottom-freezers that cost between $1,500 and $2,700. That top performance has helped make French-door fridges the fastest-growing configuration. But then, part of the reason people spend $7,500 on anything, including a refrigerator, is so that they can own something that everyone else doesn't have.

That gets to the less quantifiable value of a Sub-Zero, or any built-in refrigerator for that matter. Take style, for example: there's simply no mistaking the imposing 80-inch-high frame of a built-in—a foot or more taller than other configurations. Then there's the fact that integrated panels, often desired in high-end kitchens because they make the appliances disappear into the cabinets, are easier to do with built-in models because they often don't have through-the-door ice and water dispensers.

Last but not least, there's brand recognition. Like we said at the top, Sub-Zero is one of, if not the biggest name in high-end refrigerators. So anyone who visits your kitchen is going to know you spent top dollar on the appliance. That includes would-be buyers down the line. Indeed, real estate professionals have told us time and again that most luxury-home buyers expect to see professional appliances in the kitchen.

So are Sub-Zero refrigerators worth the price? There's no easy answer. But if you're going to spend that much on a refrigerator, make sure you're doing it for the right reasons.

This is the way. Much sturdier due to holding glass. Most stores are small enough where they pitch them without a story policy/recycling bin.

You are conclusion shopping when you should be asking for specific help for your situation. You are also discounting SubZero based on feelings which is not logical. And replacing a known brand with an unknown brand is not more logical.

Zline has a 1 year warranty and made in China. SubZero has a 2 year warranty and made in 'Merica.

https://www.consumerreports.org/cro/news/2012/08/are-sub-zero-refrigerators-worth-the-price/index.htm has some brand inspiration based on reliability.

The end game is you have a harder row to hoe than a normal user as you have the same perils plus more:

1. People only go online to complain, so most online reviews you see are negative or silly first world problems.
2. Higher end appliances have a smaller pool for reviews than say appliances you can get at Home Depot.

I'd put more stock into price/warranty/features than online reviews for this category with a lean towards Consumer Reports reviews as they are the biggest aggregated source of reliability.

So Chelsea boots. There are hundreds of makers of Cheleas boots at hundreds of price points. Google goodyear welted Chelsea boots and pick the ones that meet your price point/look desires as we can't do this for you. Goodyear welted is the BIFL construction type.

Your question lacks depth and you need to research this topic much more.

You don't buy on brand per se. The term gas range means many things to many people. There are gas cooktops. There are gas stoves. There are gas double oven stoves. There are gas double convection ovens. There are La Cornue Château Series gas stoves which cost more than $100,000.

As a form factor, a gas cooktop and oven are kid simple BIFL items intrinsically. A $50 yard sale item will function just as long as a $13,000 Wolf stove, the kicker is we don't know any of your use case items which are many: budget, oven amount/size/form factor, size, griddle need, grill need, downdraft vent need, color, and many other things.

So for anyone to give you a brand name will be a disservice without you asking a more specific question.

This post will seem to shit on your question, but please read it with kindness.

Your budget does not support a BIFL wool rug. Those START at 4 digits and are generally not associated with brands as they are made by humans.

So this is where you hit up google and find something that is not BIFL and fits your budget and your size and your aesthetic requirements.

No boot causes blisters. Blisters are cause by people spending 4 seconds trying on footwear and/or wearing the wrong socks. Dr. Martens would be a good choice, but from this lineup: https://www.drmartens.com/us/en/filtered/unisex/made-in-england/c/04310000?size_w_usa=w_size_11

https://us.nps-solovair.com/collections/womens would be another option. These are easier to resole later than Dr. Martens.

Thursday would a fine option as well.

All of these would likely be considered to be lower tier, but your budget doesn't leave much room for better options.

I'd have an open mind if people would type out their full ideas vice "Indian style cotton mattress, thank". I put "cotton mattress" into the search bar and we've talked of this topic zero times in the sub.

You need to google and not this subreddit. We cannot agree on mainstream mattresses, with the only consensus being that latex is the BIFL type, which many cannot stand mainly due to heat reasons. So if we can't agree on mainstream, you will get zero help with an esoteric mattress.

You are starting with the assumption that linen is strong. Is your assumption based on data and facts or random musings from teh interwebs? https://textilelearner.net/linen-fiber-shows-poor-performance-abrasion/

These are all YOU questions, not ones for the internet.

Worth is a Venn Diagram featuring your Desire and your Budget. Neither of these values we know. Buy them or don't.

Which model is another you question. Speed Queens suck in sizing, but can make up for it in speedy cycle times. But if you think you are throwing a king size anything into one....yeah no.

Your question has no answer. Now before you think I'm an internet asshat, hear me out.

1. I could mention one of 500 products. We'll say Neatsfoot oil. You go buy some on my recommendation and you find that it turns your lovely light brown sofa into a dark brown mass that you hate. Now you hate me. Replace Neatsfoot oil with any of 500 products.
2. Easy. I have no idea what that means nor does anyone else. 500 products have 500 form factors and 500 application techniques, we have no idea what you consider to be easy.
3. Aesthetics. 500 products also have both shine and consistency variations. If I mention Product X and you use it, it will have a high shine which you hate and now you hate me. If I mention Product Y and you use it, it will have a slightly tacky surface finish which you will hate and now you hate me.

We made this amazing thing called the internet. It will list the 500 products. Pick one that suits your budget from a vendor with a great return policy. Test in an inconspicuous area. Mentally determine if the discoloration/shine/tack/ease of use meets your ideals, then sally forth or return and buy Product #2.

Clark's Bushacre II will last 200 years.

Adidas Samba will last 100 years.

Everything else will exceed $150 save one or two that maybe someone's brain knows.

https://www.hammacher.com/ is an often forgotten BIFL retailer. REI is an in store solution. https://www.filson.com/ is another maker/retailer. Now keep in mind, we are talking about warranty here, not literal BIFL as there's a difference.

/r/restoration/ or /r/furniturerestoration/ is where you want to be, not here.

You are not asking a BIFL question as BIFL mattresses are 100% latex. And not everyone's cup of tea. You are asking a use case question.

All of what you said helps you zero and you are wasting your and everyone's time. You and your wife need to take your ass down to a mattress store that has these brands and try them out in person and make a decision based on your budget, comfort and heat/cool of the mattress type. 0 people on the internet can tell you if any of these are too firm or soft or hot or cold which are the use cases of purchase....hell....odds are between you are your wife, you will likely disagree.

Now if you thinking, "Hey, asshat...I can't try out a Casper in a store, gargle bees!" Well, you have two choices:

1. Try out all the ones you can live and pick from those.
2. Play Russian Roulette with an internet mattress, but make damn sure you read their return policy 4 times.

Yes, but 0 people have time to list the 10,000 BIFL items on there as we have zero idea of what you need. If you want new skillets or jeans, then state so....otherwise, me describing in detail how Dynalon spray bottles are there and amazing when you don't give a shit about a $40 spray bottle is wasting everyone's time.

I didn't know this was a thing as I've had like 20 backpacks in my life and all sans a backer. If this is a thing for you, then DIY it....Make a cardboard template of any backpack. Trace this onto sheet Polycarbonate from Home Depot. Install with industrial Velcro.

You taking lightweight as somewhat flimsy is ignorant. That bag has a 10 year warranty...you will not get that off etsy or the used market.

You, nor 99.9% of humans know different types of leather as there is no ISO standard for leather, so we consumers can't use that as a differentiating factor. That bag is pigskin, ergo lighter. Want more warranty and heavier? Get a cow leather bag.

There are no mixed opinion on Saddleback, only mixed up people. All their leathergoods are 100% rock solid.

And you keep mentioning back support. That's not a thing. Want back support? Buy a brace. Want a backpack? Get one.

Goodyear Welted is in the webpage, this is BIFL. That pricepoint liekly means they are bottom tier. You should research a topic rather than conclusion shop as you will learn more and not have to ask questions.

Silicone is the material. PIAA was the starter/most popular, SilBlade is a cheaper option. My PIAAs lasted me 10 years on first set. Got inserts and they are like 7ish years old now. Plus the silicone coats your windshield and give you a light RainXish coating. Procedure is alcohol clean the windshield, put the wipers on, turn on wipers dry for 4-10 minutes to bed in/coat the windshield, then you are good.

Please don't. It is a version of a blind welt.

They are more challenging, but with the interwebs, all things are possible.

Dr. Martens are still made in England. Their quality is good.

Having said that, they...like many brands...have overseas fashion models under their brand which people ignorantly buy and get SuperMAD when they realize they aren't tanks. For example, their English 1460s are $260 and the overseas ones are $170 and to the normal consumer that makes a decision in .002 seconds they won't see this to stop and consider.

Now, zero people would consider Dr. Martens to be still in their killer, last 200 years heyday. But the internet, being a fickle beast, is mostly wrong about Dr. Martens as its a tale of two cities: Made in England versions and made overseas versions with a hat tip to the English versions. Will they last you 20 years? Probably not. Will they last you 300% longer than Mr. Dartens from Target? Yep.

You can resole Dr. Martens and they are actually sewn together, Solovair are just attached more traditionally.
