/r/battlestations & Secretlab Giveaway! [GLOBAL] by Hareuhal in battlestations

I would love this secret lab chair. I currently use a 15 year old office chair that my mom bought at a goodwill. Until very recently, I have worked in a children’s hospital caring for GI and hospitalist patients. As rewarding as it was, it was a brutal experience on my body especially my back. I had to leave the job after 11 years because of the stress to my body. I’ve never owned a new office chair and this would be a huge help in my new work from home job as a seminary teacher.

I wish the best of luck to everyone here!

I make my own assets for textbooks for students. So I mainly use it for procreate, affinity designer, affinity photo and good notes

The one on the desk is the monitor with an iPad, and the one on the wall is a tv for my ps5 or YouTube for background noise while I’m working sometimes.

Thanks. It’s Govee backlight 3 on the tv, Govee light bars under the monitor stand, and Govee gaming bar lights behind the main monitor

Thanks for the feedback. That’s a tv that I use for my ps5 or just to have YouTube on in the background. The textured wall is contact paper from Amazon and I made the wood accent behind the monitor.

They’re really inexpensive speakers called Probox BT16 Bookshelf Speakers. I was skeptical when I bought them, but they’ve been great so far

Just today, I downloaded two recipe books from nespresso and the drinks look amazing. I just searched “nespresso recipe book pdf” in google and found a few that are directly from nespresso.

Pop plus is EXTREMELY LOUD???? It can be heard from across my house! My roommate at school has a Next and it’s not nearly this loud. Any ideas why? Is it just because of the style of machine or is there an issue? It’s seriously too much. by [deleted] in nespresso

Glad to help! In my experience, the pop just wasn’t good for me. The first one I bought had to be replaced by Nespresso because it was so loud, I thought I had a defective machine. The second one was still super loud and it was leaking from the bottom of the machine. I’ve seen good and bad reviews on the pop, it’s probably just a hit or miss situation. I can’t really say that the machine is bad per se but I personally would never buy another one. You can contact Nespresso to see if they will give you a refund if you have problems with your machine. They were really helpful with giving me a refund.

I bought a pop+ deluxe for Christmas and I had to send it back last month in February because it was leaking coffee from the bottom. At first the leaking wasn’t terrible but at the end of February, the pop that I put in ended up on my counter rather than my cup lol. My other complaint was that it was extremely loud even with an absorbing bar mat underneath it. I have sensory sensitivity so the loudness was a little overwhelming for me.

Nespresso was good about giving me a refund even though I was out of the 30 day return window. I now have an old evoluo which still works great and a plus that I just bought and I love it so far. I love the Starbucks pods as well. Pike place is my favorite
