[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is object-specific and you have to do your research on consumer websites to really educate yourself. It takes time, but it is worth it. I was dreaming of Miele appliances, for instance, but could only afford a Samsung French door fridge and Samsung washer and dryer - research showed me that some of their models were very appreciated, and after a year I find the quality-price ratio is excellent. I did splurge on wallpaper (Nina Campbell, shipped from England), fireplace tiles (hand-made Dutch scenes from the Netherlands) and my beloved walnut kitchen countertop ($$$). Less toxic Aura paint from Benjamin Moore, the pricier paint. [b]Bath fixtures from the more reasonably-priced and perfectly working Kohler instead of others[/b]. Organic bedding from Pottery barn is great quality and design for the price. Can't say the same for the rest of PB... Now for clothes, I prefer to buy the best quality (Patagonia, Petit Bateau, Jacadi, Tilley hats etc) but used! eBay and consignment stores are wonderful resources. [/quote] Kohler actually makes some really nice fixture. I also agree with LL Bean. Add to this: Frye boots Honda Lands End sheets Keen shoes (for kids) [/quote]
