Do you know people who buy stuff that breaks in less than a year? While it would be great to have more local businesses with inexpensive quality products, just paying 2-3 times as much for a product isn't going to make it any more durable.

OK. I bought a heating pad in the early 90s. It died in 2015. I then bought a new one and it died in a month. Yes, they are making garbage so it doesn't last. I use to cook, for a living so I know some stuff about pots and pans. I bought top of the line saute pans again in the 90s, they died in 2016. I kept buying these pans in BJs, target, etc garbage. After three years of this, I said enough. I just got online last night and ordered my pans from restaurant shop and it is expensive to restock. However, these are top of the line and I thought they would be more expensive by now. Worries me a bit, but I'm hoping to get another 20+ years out of them. The other pots I bought in 90s still going strong. If anyone is looking for good knives, Zyllis, made in Switzerland. Excellent knives for cheap. Hand wash them though.
