Reply to My Grandmother’s oven, circa 1966. Many holiday meals were cooked with love here, right up until the day she passed. Aside from one shattered glass door that was replaced, everything still works! by _Mr_Roboto_
Tough to get the turkey out of the oven with a big pot of mashed potatoes on the stove, but the retro look is awesome!

When you do this though, you have to buy a heater with physical controls. If digital, it won't automatically turn o just because the outlet has power.

Several years ago I had maxpedition wallet/phone belt pouch kinda thing. I can definitely say it was built like a tank.

Reply to Can anyone suggest a durable non stick cook set? Preferably one which doesn't break the bank by revnhoj
Nonstick coatings scratch and peel over time, so they're inherently not bifl. Cast iron or carbon steel can be seasoned to create a natural polymer coating that resists sticking and can be reapplied as needed. They are susceptible to rust though, and you can't cook high-acidity foods because it will dissolve the seasoning. So your best bifl bet is a good set of stainless like allclad, and just get used to cooking with them. If anything does stick, you can deglaze the pans, and in dire situations, they're basically indestructible, so go to town with whatever scrapers and scouring pads you need while you're learning. After getting the hang of them, they cook much better than nonstick anyway because you can't develop a fond on nonstick.

Reply to Printer for home use with great affordability and long-term support. HP DeskJet? by [deleted]
Toner is expensive up front, but especially if you print infrequently, it will significantly reduce your cost per page compared to ink. I like HPs quite a bit, I've owned them personally, and have administrated them in office environments
