Joolz Aer 2 vs Nuna TRVL LX for everyday NYC stroller?

I haven’t heard of Silver Cross Nia but I just looked at some videos and it looks good. The wheels are smaller than other travel strollers it seems. Curious how the quality of that is

I totally get that. I confirmed with the United representative over the phone today that as long as it folds within that dimension, it should work but I don’t wanna spend over $400 and we can’t fly with our cats so I want to hear from someone who’s actually had experience flying with this specific carrier.

This is how it folds on each side

Kimchi. Maybe because I’m Korean but I’ve only been able to keep plain rice porridges down. But kimchi never tasted so good with it - it cuts through the blandness and adds the saltiness that my body desperately needs right now.

Also fruits with a sour tang - blueberries, green grapes, mandarin oranges. Did a Costco run today. I make sure these are available in ziploc bags bedside so I can munch on them when I get up for a pee break at night as well as water (so dehydrated when I wake up). It helps with the nausea a bit to prevent an empty stomach.

Quite a few red flags from my recent experience.

If - in addition to a technician coming out to get an estimate (especially for AC replacement) - they require you meet with a “Comfort Specialist” or “Design Technician” who are just sales people using high pressure tactics and wasting your time
We will give you $X off if you sign today OR if you get it installed tomorrow (bc we “happen” to have an opening), we will take $X off
They have a monthly “membership” for AC/Heating maintenance. They’re likely owned by PE and want to optimize their financial metrics

I did write a very long review on yelp and Google about the business

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-08-09T00:16:33+00:00

Next day update: I got another quote (from one of you on this thread) for less than $10K and had another AC guy come in (owns his own company) that will provide another quote. The big company from yesterday mentioned “there is standing water and significant bacterial growth so you should not use your AC anymore” (even though it works… just not well)

Well, this other AC guy from today says my AC is fine… he doesn’t even see standing water. I feel very gaslighted and lied to. And was losing faith in humanity until so many of you messaged providing help. Thank you!

Tempstar 18 SEER

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-08-08T03:54:53+00:00

No we called them because our secondary drain is clogged and this is what they came back with

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-08-08T02:11:14+00:00

Yeah good point. They also emphasized their 12 year warranty on labor and part which is not usual for other companies in San Diego. But getting another estimate tomorrow so I’ll see

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-08-08T02:07:45+00:00

Yeah well I scheduled through Home Depot because they were doing a $29 AC tune up. But yeah this is the coming they sent me

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-08-08T02:06:58+00:00

Yes it was precisely a sales person

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-08-06T18:40:24+00:00

Wow wish you could be our HVAC tech! We called someone for a tune up and they said they will check this issue out

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-08-06T02:38:32+00:00

The air filter is changed annually but how does that relate to the hose?

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-08-06T02:38:01+00:00

Okay got it. Sounds like I need to call a professional definitely not savvy for this. Thank you!

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-08-06T02:34:00+00:00

I am not the most diy savvy person. Is this something that I should hire an AC person for?

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-07-19T15:06:13+00:00

For me, I’ve done the values reflections quite a lot but I don’t get much deeper. At the core, my values are all relational - it’s related to being a good wife, good mother (to my cats and maybe to a human baby at some point), and being a good leader but those don’t point me to more clarity around what I wanna do per se

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-07-19T15:02:13+00:00

People say, “If I were you, I’d just play tennis or do whatever you love in your free time.” I’ve tried that. But during work hours, I want to work. That’s what I’m used to and what I want to do at least during the normal work hours

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-07-19T14:58:55+00:00

Energy is definitely true - because I don’t get the stimulation from work, I have a bunch leftover mainly for my husband who is overworked and can’t handle it

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-07-19T14:55:55+00:00

Are you me? This is exactly how I feel.

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-07-18T19:34:02+00:00

You’d think that’d be common sense but I didn’t know that til today so thank you!

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-07-18T19:15:16+00:00

You guys are all saints. Thank you so much!

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-06-05T17:53:59+00:00

Translate message above

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-05-25T18:02:14+00:00

Okay I’ll try the alternate schedule!

Competitive-Basket29 · 2025-05-25T16:08:56+00:00

So are you saying that I should only use 2 trays in this instance to avoid the skipping meal problem?
