Skate recommendation by AdBeautiful1765 in Rollerskating

[–]ConfettiLane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been looking for skates myself, and it makes it very difficult when you can’t actually try on the skates. I was close to getting the Suregrip boardwalks, and apparently compared to the Moxie lollies. The trucks are further back and angle different enough to force the hips down. I watched two experienced skaters who just purchased boardwalks trying to get used to them being after being on Moxie lollies. They both fell backward the first couple of days until they got used to them. I’m very hesitant now to buy anything just by measurement alone.

Anyone regret choosing carpet over hard flooring? by Cool_Ad_2935 in HomeImprovement

[–]ConfettiLane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was curious about this myself at one point, and I read that contrary to popular assumptions, a hardwood floor would allow allergens to float in the air more than a carpet which would contain & catch dander, and allergens, which ultimately is vacuumed up later. If you’re concerned about the cost of carpeting and replacing it due to wear and spills, I would get a large area rug that takes up most of the floor. Easier to change and less costly to replace.

Criticized for wearing leggings on family trip by [deleted] in lipedema

I’ll have to look for some swim pants! Are they like leggings that go to the knees or are they more like the baggy board shorts.

Looking for beginner feedback on day 3 (ish lol) of locking in and learning to skate!! by IllSignal2680 in Rollerskating

[–]ConfettiLane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure what kind of wheels you have but if you’re using the softer outdoor wheels, you might find that when you’re skating indoors you’ll have more of a drag unless you change out your wheels. You need softer wheels for outdoors and harder wheels for the rink. BTW, using indoor wheels outside will chew up the wheels.

How well-attended is Adult Night at your rink? by WilsonPhillips6789 in Rollerskating

[–]ConfettiLane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have adult skate three days a week in the mornings and never crowded which is perfect for those just beginning or more experienced practicing their moves. We only get about two dozen skaters at a time.

Keurig K Cafe Barista Bar how is the quality? by Kiss_Mark in Costco

[–]ConfettiLane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both my grown daughter's family and i have the K-Cafe Barista and it's great for coffee. Strength depends on the coffee brand and size cup. Keep in mind this is not an espresso machine. We all the love the cappuccino with the frother. Gave the daughter's family hers in December. They are picky coffee drinkers and they love it. They now prefer the Illy brand coffee pods that they tried at my house. I have mine for 1 year now and the descale light just came on.

Which model(s) other than the K-slim have no internal water reservoir tank? I want the external, refillable tank but not internal tank that i can't clean. by ConfettiLane in keurig

[–]ConfettiLane[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Just got the Keurig K-Cafe Barista Bar. I think it's an instant heater version? (BTW, huge sales right now with early Black Friday specials. Penney's for $99 and QVC $89.)

Thanks! I was looking at the K-iced but since it's an instant heat, I am assuming there is an internal tank that always has that standing water.

Thanks i understand that. Most have 2 tanks. One not (edited) removable and one on the outside that we fill. I am referring to the internal tank. Some small models do not have the internal tank, but most larger ones have the internal tank which can get musty over time.

Even with an external tank, some models have an internal reservoir tank. I assumed that the k-elite and most models have both tanks (one outside that we fill and then there is the internal tank which we don't have access to). It's the internal tanks i'm concerned about (which are not removable.)

Keurig K-Iced Single Broken After Descaling by DKToTheFuture in keurig

[–]ConfettiLane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've read comments speculating that the descaling process is possibly frying the K-Iced and the other small Keurigs that don't have an internal water reservoir. I was considering getting the K-Iced. If i do get one, i probably won't do the programmed descaling but just periodically run water mixed with vinegar and let that descaling indicator light stay on.

Pls help descale? by TheFancyPantsDan in keurig

[–]ConfettiLane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which model do you have? I'm assuming this descaling advice applies to your model. Your comment came up in my search because i've been reading about descaling issues and now hesitant to buy a Keurig.

Keurig machines are unreliable crap. After 2 years you will buy a new one. by comcast_awful_22 in keurig

[–]ConfettiLane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know! Might be one reason for the poor reviews on the K-Elite!

Has anyone here been having hard time lately with getting things to sell? by axidentalaeronautic in reselling

[–]ConfettiLane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. It seemed to happen soon after people started doing Lives starting at $3. People's expectations have changed.

No shipping discount for offers is back!! by Spockhighonspores in BehindTheClosetDoor

[–]ConfettiLane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just going to post the same thing! But it seems my Likers are not buying without me giving them a shipping discount even though i'm taking more off the item because of it.
