There actually is no bedding made with more than a 300 thread count. That's a limit of weaving equipment. When you see a 600 thread count, that is doubled up thin fiber, 300 count but each thread bring made from twi strands. Similarly, a 1200 thread count is still 300 thread count--made with 4 thinner weaker fibers per thread. Thread count isn't enough to tell how soft a sheet will be. The source of the cotton (or other fiber) is just as important.

I've always been skeptical of the numbers. I always just test by hand to see which one feels good. But I have found , however , that the higher thread counts do feel smoother on my scan

I've installed at least 15 of those toilets in the last few years in either flips, rentals or customer replacements and they hold up quite well. I have one in my house for about 4 years as well. I like the single unit because install is faster and easier and one less seal to wear out. The dual flush option is nice, but it takes a while to get used to the location of the "buttons".

Can't recommend HP anymore given all the issues they have but also because of that whole "printing as a service" situation. Paying a monthly fee to be allowed to use my own printer is unacceptable. I buy Brother printers now.

Good job Jeff, THANK YOU

Since my Costco is 2 hours away, the best deal for me is the Kirkland brand toilet paper and Kirkland paper towels, which are shipped free to my house. I don't know how they make money on it after their costs to ship.

I bought that WaterRidge 1 piece toilet at Costco about 7 years ago when my bathroom was remodeled and have not had a problem. It's cheap because everything is cheaper at Costco. I bought a few boxes of the Seeds Of Change Quinoa and Brown Rice a few weeks ago at my Costco when they were on sale. 👍

The problem with the Kirkland paper towels now is that they don't individually wrap the rolls. They seem to have done away with the individual wrapping in the past year. They're saving a few pennies, but I like to make sure that my paper towels are stored clean and dust free. I'm not happy about this change.

not everyone has storage for large packages, [ I need to store in basement & certainly don't want the packages open until ready to use] so for myself I want each roll wrapped for protection until it is in use...Costco lost me as a customer for this item .. I bet I'm not the only one..Sams' are still individually wrapped, same price, comparable quality though rolls are slightly smaller...

That shower caddy is amazing for limited space bathrooms.

One of the main drawbacks to that sink you showed innthe beginning is that it is made by Trinity, and thry are a low quality company. Their metal is too thin and it not only dents easily, but their legs aren't all that sturdy. Look at how their products hold up, or actually don't hold up all that great on the showroom. I bought one of their SS tool chests and it was delivered dented. Then the second one was delivered, but fell apart within a month of use in my shed, so I just returned it.

I bought the Bevin at $169. Since I had the receipt, they told me to buy one and then return that with the receipt (which I did, though I had the original one in my car, unopened). The one I bought and returned was the last one on the shelf, and I wonder how many times that got returned on Wednesday...

I was renting a house one time, and asked the owner if I could install a garbage disposal, and I offered to pay for it. I bought the cheapest Insinkerator. The chewed everything up, no problem on anything. one of the best purchases for $75. Insinkerator is the standard.

I've installed 2 of the Costco terlits in the last 8 years, one piece and two piece. Great flush and rinse. That said, works best if you hold the button down to use all the tank water on #2's. Press large button and release for #1. This will keep the bowl clean.

Went through 3 of those puny AS disposals in 6 months. The impellers are tiny and prone to breakage. So I bought Waste King Universal 1.25hp top of the line in 2005. Almost 20 years of service running! I also have an ISE top of the line auto reverse 1.5 hp unit that I bought in 1989. It's now in it's 35th year and gets used multiple times a day in my home. I take it with when I move. They don't make them like they used to.

Thanks for this video. Also watched your video of a bridge that failed, I believe next to a college in FL . I assume the research was exhaustive. The detailed explanation from the structural point, the "legal" point of view and the failure on the different parties was superb. Is this a different channel? I watch this one frequently but I bumped into that channel kind of accidentally. I guess I got lucky with the garbage disposal. I got it on sale for $60. I'm not the handiest guy and but luckily, it didn't leaked so far. The top part you said it leaks, out of laziness I used the old one. Maybe that saved me. I guess I used the old one already installed. I assume it a standard part because the garbage disposals were from different manufacturers or brands. Now I second guessing myself. I installed the same bathroom exhaust fans. I didn't know what was an adequate size but, the bigger size I found had some luxuries or features I wasn't interested on paying for.. For example, the bigger ones had n integrated Bluetooth speakers. Hopefully the bathrooms are small enough. I prefer Brother printers. The Brother printers print until the last drop of ink, even with cheap refill cartridges. The Brother prints no matter if one of the color ran out. May print ugly but will print. The HP will be "finicky" with the ink forcing you to pay their supper expensive ink. If you run out one color, it may not print.

Pennzoil Ultra Platinum is better oil than Mobil One and a better price at A.

I've never understood why Costco sells the most expensive laptops rather than wholesale bulk purchasing some lower end models that are last year's or even 2022 models, and can be sold for under $400 retail.

Regarding bath fans....the builders don't put in the correct size nor do they put in a good fan. Most of them are the cheapest and smallest code will allow for and even at that, code isn't really suggesting any exhaust fan spec that are worthy. I agree, regardless of the "small" bathroom...put in at least 110 cfm and a squirrel cage blower wheel vs. a fans blade that is noisy and useless. Larger baths need at least 200 to 300 cfm.
