they best purchase I ever made from Q

This doesn't have to be the most expensive. Mine is the Jackie Kennedy, tank watch, with the deployment buckle

 

I like the way it looks on my wrist. I have a small one, and big watches aren't a good look for me. I have lots of things I paid way more for, but this is a value for money item,in my book

Joan Rivers jewelry. I have baroque pearls with gold love knots that are over 20 years old, and still look like new. And her pins are exquisite...I have lots of those, too.

Re: they best purchase I ever made from Q



Thinking about it I have many things from the Q I still like and use
so it's hard to pick a favorite but they're all from years ago,
I think the QUALITY part of the Q has gone down a lot.

VARIETY has gone down as well.

I guess they're still CONVENIENT though.😊


They need a new name like the way Evine did.

Four pairs of the ORIGINAL Denim & Co How Smooth Boot Cut Jeans... before they improved them and ruined them!  I've always been hard to fit in jeans, with larger waist and smaller hips and tush... I always had to alter them in some way.  I put these on and they FIT PERFECTLY right out of the bag.  I would have bought ten more pairs in different colors if they had brought them back the way they first came.  Sadly, they ruined what I and hundreds of others said were a real WINNER! Smiley Sad

The best is either the Nu Wave oven, the Kuhn Rikon shears,  the Kuhn Rikon jar opener or the Rangemate cookware.  I can't decide because I'd be lost without any of them

sweetj Joan R was always strict about her quality of her products,
I hope the people with her line will keep honoring that quality
standard.

I have many of her pieces I still like.Smiley Happy

My Platinum Keurig. It changed my life!!! No more wasted, burned pots of coffee.

 

Plus when it gave up the ghost after about 18 months - Keurig sent a replacement at no charge, even shipping was free.

I can't name a single product, but here's a Hall of Fame (followed by a Foyer of Shame of weird products):

 

top 5 in the Hall of Fame, off the top of my head:

 

Bare Escentuals

L'Occitane

Polish Stoneware

Purity by Philosophy

the hammered 14K San Marco bracelet acquired during the last Gold Rush

 

Top 5 in the Foyer of Ignominity:

 

The nut cracker that didn't know how to crack nuts.  It was handcrafted somewhere and basically was two pieces of wood that didn't grip together strongly enough to work on a grape.

 

The skin care gadget Linda Evans hawked about 15 years ago, a mask with electrodes and gel to help conduct small jolts of electricity. This appealed to me as a science fiction fan.  The gel caused an instant rash, so I never got to the "Frankenstein" part.

 

In the same vein, the weird thing you put in your mouth and worked sideways to give facial muscles a workout.

 

The D&C jeans received with a used Kleenex in the pocket.

 

The rice cooker that incinerated rice.

From the last few years, maybe my Bliss lights. I had a Koos reversible vest that always got me compliments, but I finally had to pass it on because I'd lost weight...sort of a good thing/bad thing Smiley Happy
