Yes, the one people recommend most, the top loading TC5, has an old fashioned agitator and will accelerate wear and tear but that's the trade off for getting clothes really clean in about 35 minutes per load.

Flexsteel furniture today is much lower quality than 30 years ago. Search the name in the popular furniture forums for more details.

If you use an antiseptic mouthwash (i.e, like Listerine and it's generic equivalents) you can soak your toothbrush head in the mouthwash for 15 minutes each week to totally disinfect it and get rid of any bad taste on it.

Reply to Suggestions for a mattock and other useful tools for digging in rocky soil? by HermesThriceGreat69
A lot of house-brands of hand tools have lifetime warranties now. In fact, I think you can bring in and exchange your mattock at HF for a new one under their lifetime warranty.
I haven't tried this brand in that type of tool, but Home Depot has their Husky brand of hand tools, with a lifetime warranty and they seem to get very good reviews, such as this one.
True Temper, also sold at HD, also makes good yard tools. I think that's the prand of pick axe I have, which works well for digging, but I don't have that many rocks in my yard ... but do have lots of tree roots.
