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.

I live in an area with strong winds and I'm happy with Knirps, they can be found in both NA and EU.
More expensive than "regular" umbrellas, but they are built to last and are compact to boot.
Thank you, I'll probably go for the t200.
Anyone has used blunt umbrellas? I like the design and reviews seem to say they are sturdy too.
I had a blunt umbrella several years ago (not the compact model however) and it was great quality and would buy it again. I sadly lost mine a while back
I've been tempted by a Blunt umbrella but I'm sure I'd lose it immediately! I've been wondering if I could attach some sort of tracking device to it haha
