French press coffee maker, silicone dish sponge, manual food processor machine, sliding glass shower doors, and an old radio/tape player.

These are all things I've purchased recently to replace the standard way of doing things that are outperforming the alternatives.

For example, I wanted some coffee one day. I had coffee and a coffee machine (a kcup machine) but no pods. I couldn't make coffee. I realized that while the kcup machine has it's use cases, as a home coffee machine it was way over engineered for the problem.
