Brick50 on Tefal Ingenio Ultimate Induction Set 12pc $329 ($299 With Sign Up) Delivered @ Victoria's Basement

Exactly the kind of recommendation I’ve been looking for, thx.

But overall, is ASUS a good call for my new (not huge, single level, no bricks or concrete) home? Thinking security and backdoor issues. My…

xdirex on Asus TUF Gaming AX4200 Wi-Fi 6 Router $229 + Delivery ($0 C&C) @ Bing Lee

Got it, Thanks all. 👍

Genuine question, why has this been negged and is the OP route better? I’m after recommendations.

Hmm, my comment was blocked, not sure why as I'm not an affiliate, just trying to help. If you search Amazon for this, you'll see what I…

No probs, always happy to help OzB'ers. 👍

Note I updated the Amazon link with something more appropriate, the key part being USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 compatibility.

Harold Halfprice on Samsonite Lite-Box Aluminium 76cm Spinner Suitcase $575.64 Deliverd @ The Iconic

Fair point, I like the cases but I’m also really pedantic and like things staying ‘new’. 😅

This style of suitcase always looks super banged up IRL. Nice straight of be shelf perhaps.
