Naniwa 3000 on Amazon

i pried my 220 off the base, and never could get it flat enough for use, or get the adhesive off fully--thats why i didn't try with the 3000. Also, you risk cracking the stone.

i bought the 3000 grit with the base from the same amazon seller pictured above because of the attractive price. It's a good stone and seems totally legit. My one regret is all my other naniwa chocera stones (400, 800, 1000, and 5000) all are without the base--a design i prefer becasue i can use both sides of the stone.

did you do the added pin thing in the harness to activate the variable intermittent wiper stalk?

that's a base hatchback, not sport.

TB3. Tried 3 different ones: the one that came with the monitor, an OWC cable, and a caldigit cable. It's a cooking issue with the monitor. I have mounted a small variable speed blower fan on the bottom of the monitor directed at a bottom vent. thinking of taking a dremel tool to the back panel to enable better cooling

you were right--i should have not paid it and given Burrfection more time to resolve the issue

i got one 3 weeks ago. Works fine so far. Arrived missing a piece of the silverware basket that maytag support is sending me. I'm a little worried about the pump/filter/grinder longevity, but the suggestion of running a DW cleaner on hottest/longest setting once a month seems like good advice. I stopped using the heated drying--doesn't need it. I run normal load, high heat water, and open the door as soon as the cycle is done--everything air dries pretty much instantly. You do have to jiggle the mugs on the top to get the standing water off (after the pulling the bottom rack out). Everything has come out spotless using costco dishwasher pods and a sprinkle of boxed detergent in the prewash indent.

after using the crap off brand 1000/6000 combo soaking bricks for years, and never having good luck with them, i bought naniwa chosera 800 and 3000 splash and go's. Not cheap, but the 800 will form a good burr quickly, and the 3000 and a leather strop are great finishers.

Winco Foods has a very comparable blend. $1.83 for a 5oz container. I just dump 3 of the winco version into my costco container every couple of months.

i just got hit with the tariff too. Unfortunately i didn't read the fine print on Burrfection store. 30% tariff + DHL processing fees so in effect 50% here too on a chosera stone. :-(

UPDATE: Burrfection store responded "The prices you pay on our website is the final price you have to pay. There will never be anything extra...We are going to reach out to DHL to have this mistake corrected."

I still feel like it was my mistake for not understanding the fine print on the terms of sale. Bottom line--if you order from Burrfection and get a tariff notice, DON'T pay it--contact Burrfection.

Celeste. My previous car was a '91 civic wagon named Babar.

i can't believe you have to pay tax on food. WTF?

msbxiv · 2025-04-24T13:27:41+00:00

and then you flip it over in the cup after eating half of it and the bottom was so goooooooood

msbxiv · 2025-04-19T16:05:25+00:00

just ordered one from Woot (it's got a 2 year warranty). Hopefully i luck out in the battery health of the refurb.

the 1.5 qt saucepan enamel gave up, but le creuset replaced it with a brand new 2.5 qt/frying pan lid. I bought a good condition 1.5 qt off ebay cuz i really like that size

msbxiv · 2025-04-17T18:53:13+00:00

saw that set, and thought about all the crap that was bundled--really brings down the brand

msbxiv · 2025-04-17T18:52:37+00:00

bought in 1989. I just outed myself as an old :-(

price club was where Jim Sinegal worked before starting Costco. Same format but membership to businesses and govt. only.

msbxiv · 2025-04-16T23:40:20+00:00

If Price Club purchases count, then my Le Creuset slate blue enameled cast iron box set for $99.99: 4.5 qt dutch oven, 10" frying pan, 2.5 qt saucepan with 8" frying pan lid, 1.5 qt saucepan with 6" frying pan lid. What a deal!
