Salewa dura stretch men's jacket

 

This has turned out to be one of my favorite back country touring jackets. Very light and breathable. The wool fabric backing gives it just enough warmth to be comfortable on the uphill but not hot, yet still warm enough for the downhill. Not a great resort jacket - at high ski speed you can really feel the wind through the fabric.


Recommended as an outer water/snow resistant layer for the uphill or as the layer you add for the downhill. Snug athletic fit. True to size.

Anycubic kobra pro review and use test. Save your money and time.

 My 12 year old son and I have spent the better part of a month trying to get this piece of Frankenstein junk to print... Anything.


One of the most frustrating experiences I've had with a piece of technology in a long time.


The $ you s


aved will be eaten up by the lost months of time that this piece of junk will consume from your life.


It functions better as some kind of animated art that anything approaching a 3d printer.


Save your money and time and buy a more expensive but better built printer.

Zero stars.

Hearthstone heritage IV review

 Got it in soapstone last fall. Looks pretty. Draws for crap. Doesn't get hot and after a full season doesn't appear to be any more effecient than my old one. Produces just as much creosote and requires the same frequency of chimney cleaning. The catalytic converter doesn't throw off any extra heat that I can detect. Not recommended.
