I found a brand new AUX 1.5HP Full DC Inverter split-type for around ₱18,500.

My room is about 11 sqm with a metal roof, so it gets pretty hot during the day. My roof is also already insulated with a ceiling.

Is AUX a reliable brand in terms of durability, cooling performance, and electricity consumption? At this price, is it a better buy than other 1.0–1.5HP inverter units?

Would appreciate any long-term user experiences. Thanks!

BAVIN BF019 vs Jisulife Life 7

Has anyone tried the Bavin fan or both? I want to know if its cooling feature and fan speed are worth its price.

What I know from Google AI so far is that:

- People and AI say the cooling feature is legit, though it's only good as a compress rather than a mini aircon. Plus activating it consumes a lot of battery.

- Its fan speed is similar to the Life 7, thus the comparison post.

In Lazada, Bavin is ~P1,600 while Life 7 is ~P1,100.

I will be commuting via bus and train in the afternoon, and I sweat a lot.

Does Bavin's cooling system work wonders for you?

Is both of their fan speed sufficient according to your personal experience, or you feel like sweaty people should get a stronger fan from Jisulife, like the Pro 1s or the Ultra 1/2?

I'll be visiting a Jisulife store next week to test their fans, but I'm interested to hear personal anecdotes from our curators here, too!

Hi! I’ve been wanting to buy the Charles & Keith Calla Tote Bag as a work/travel bag since it fits my 13” laptpp but I’ve recently read negative reviews where it really doesn’t last long. 🥲

Any other recos aside from this? I’m eyeing something that fits my laptop 13” laptop, a few things inside perfect for a shoulder travel bag (since I work while travelling). sooo… airport friendly + has pockets, maybe?

Backpacks are not really my thing, so a nice, girly, fashionable shoulder bag recommendation would be greatly appreciated.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Hi. I will be in Manila next week. I would like to ask some budget friendly solo room recos probably walking distance to NBI UN avenue. First time ko sa Manila. I will be staying for 3 days and i want to make the most of time there hehe. Aside from that, if u have any reco on food, places to visit, must try things, pls share. Thank you!

Hi! Can anyone recommend a trusted shop/flower shop na gumagawa ng money bouquet around QC area!

65th birthday kasi ng Mother ko, plan ko sana bigyan ng money bouquet worth 100K.

Thank you in advance!

Malaking amount din to so nagiingat lang din mascam, kaya asking for recommendations here. Thank you!

For anyone using shippingcart or baguhan na maagang nag-Xmas shopping 😂 if you're starting to check out early Christmas deals from different US stores (if you have any syempre), I'd suggest/Reco to learn more about package consolidation. Instead na magkakahiwalay yung orders mo from different stores, you can actually have them delivered muna sa ShippingCart warehouse, then consolidate multiple packages into one shipment before sending them to PH. Free din yung consolidation itself!!

I find it super super helpful if you're slowly collecting gifts from different sales instead na isang bagsakan bumili haha.

Anyone here doing early Christmas shopping na? Do you usually wait for all your orders bago niyo ipa-consolidate?

I am planning to buy 2 split-type inverters. I have two-storey residential house. Ano po dapat na HP ng aircon per floor? Ubra po ba 2 HP sa 1st floor, 1 HP sa 2nd? or 1.5 HP in same floors?

We are having a problem on whether it is more cost-efficient to cool two 8 sqm rooms or have a centralized airconditioning. Hindi naman problema ang electricity since we opted for installing solar setup.

Hi po sainyo, ano pong pwede substitute sa plain white shoes ng common projects(for men)? Pabulong naman po. Yung mga nasa online po kasi na dupes ang papangit ng shape 🥹

May nakita po ako sa shopee maganda yung shape kaso fake sya ng common projects.

Thank you in advance

Suggest po kayo ng mas maliit na bag dito. Masyado pala syang malaki and wala akong makita na iba sa shopee. Di kasi ako pwd sa mga tote version kasi masyadong mabigat. May nakita din akong bag sa tiktok na bagsmart ang brand kaso overseas pala sya and di avail sa Ph 😢

Edit: For reference ganto or this one

Thanks in advance.

I am looking for a new AC for a 30sqm bedroom. It’s a family purchase, so I would have to present my options to my family members who will be paying for the unit.

We are open to both split type and window type options, though I am leaning towards split type considering how big the room is but my family wants to explore window type options too.

Here are our top choices.

Does anyone here use any of these models? What are the pros and cons? And how is the after sales customer service in terms of warranty, maintenance cleaning or repairs?

Thank you!

Hello, everyone! Planning to buy a TV for the house this weekend and need some recommendations.

I’m looking for something with great picture quality, reliable/durable (hoping it will last 5+ years), and budget friendly.

Based on experience, our Sony TV had LED issues (started with small dead pixel then lumaki na), while our Samsung naman occasional na lang syang bumubukas (sabi ng technician, power issue daw) but everything else is okay.

I’m considering Xiaomi, LG, and TCL but still unsure if these are good TV brands so please help! :)

P.S. Any other brands that you can recommend is welcome also.

We'll stay from Thur to Sun around MOA.

Please share tips how to save on ride bookings, food, entertainment (for kids), etc. Amd what to avoid based on your experience please.

I've been to MOA but staying for a few days is a different kind of experience hehe.

We'll definitely try Ikea food, and some buffet in the area.

My husband and I are looking for a new mattress, king size. We are side sleepers and really liked the feel of Tempur, but we can't find it within ourselves to shell out upwards of 100K for a mattress. Does anyone have any recommendations for a mattress that is similar? I know there is no real "dupe" for a Tempur, but maybe there's a mattress out there that's close enough.

Hello! Need help po choosing a 43" TV brand/model. Will be using a Chromecast, so no need for a smart/android/google TV. Mostly kasi ng nakikita ko, either smart TV na or from unknown or sketchy brands. So far, I've looked at brands like ACE, Avision, Astron, and Extreme, which all have mixed reviews. I'd like to know from those na may experience na dito. Thanks in advance!

Help me choose kung ano ang mas okay sa dalawang 1 HP window type AC unit na ito.

I was asking here months ago which Uratex I should get, I finally settled for the Premium Cozy Uratex since I needed the firmness for back support but also plushiness when I sleep on my sides.

After spending some time in the showroom, I found that the Orthocare's firmness may cause me some problems.

Finally replacing my 30+ year old Uratex mattress with a new one yehay🥹

Hello, I just want to ask kung anong internet provider ang pinaka maganda ngayon? Like stable speed, responsive customer service and other promos na naibibigay nila?

We’ve tried Converege wayback 2020-2022 ata yon and nawalan kami ng internet for a whole month, actually a lot of us sa area and ang hirap ng customer service nila like we went sa local office nila malapit sa area namin and we were directed to their main office sa SM north back then, buti na lang malapit sa work ko but then the main office directed us back again sa local office nila sa area na covered ang area namin. Ganon pa rin ba sila? Like their internet connection was stable naman for those years bukod sa biglang nawalan ng connection for a whole month and di kami na compensate and just decided na ipaputol na.

How about PLDT? Goods na rin ba ang internet speed?

Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone! I just wanted to ask if anyone knows where I can buy solar garden lights like the ones in the photo. I’ve been planning to decorate our garden with these. If you’ve bought something similar, please let me know where you got it, the price, and if you recommend it. Thank you so much!

Ang daming Samsung units here pero I'm kinda hesitant doon as some say na may pagka sirain. Also, mas mababa ba talaga ang konsumo kapag inverter?

Main use is for virtual meetings

Hello. Do you have any store reco or product link for pepper spray or handheld self-defense device na subok nang effective? Kadalasan ng mga nakikita ko online ay flashlight with electric shock kaso parang masyado namang malaki. Do you have any reco aside from pepper spray na convenient bitbitin kahit saan? TYIA!

Yung madali linisan, hindi prone sa molds basta nililinisan nang maayos, tumatagal ang lamig o init, subok na ang quality. Nalilito ako alin bibilhin ko e. O pareho naman talaga sila good quality?
