A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

MODERATORS
I had a drinkmate, it was pretty good it can tolerate flavours before carbonating unlike sodastream, and its not zionist as far as i know. but when you factor in the cost of the bottles (which expire) its not much of a saver vs cans but it is a lot less waste. Another expense is having a connector that is sodastream compatible, those are much more expensive than the ones you can get with standard connectors. I have heard you can 3d print or buy an adapter (just make sure to use food safe materials).
I eventually paid a lot for a grohe under the sink carbinator, I like it its great, much higher carbonation and also refrigerates the water, but it is extremely overpriced ( it has expensive proprietary filters, but they last a really long time) but if i were to do it again I would diy it, since you are considering it i highly recommend it.
