"A good robovac is a life changer. Even a $350 basic S8. It is a great place to start. ... I promise you that you will not be disappointed by a basic S8. It will change your life even if it can't fit under every piece of furniture you own. ... My two S8s just finished vacuuming our entire house in about 46 minutes. ... While my floors were being cleaned, I sat comfortably on our patio in the cool shade with a slight breeze and composed my far too long response to you while sipping a diet soda and relaxing. ... I will have to spend about four minutes maintaining my two S8s. This will be my entire contribution to my home floor cleaning effort for today. Four minutes!"
"Like 500$ these robots are currently the steal of the century ... You can get a mova p10 pro ultra (cannot remove its mops), equivalent to the l40/x40 for 500$ after a discount code"
"I got the Q5 Pro for $139. ... costs $450 less than what I paid for the S6 ... it is the best value option out there imo."

"The roborock I have kicked and smashed with my foot so many times out of anger when it doesn't collaborate, and still he rocks 4-5 yrs later and no broken parts"
"they are extremely durable. ... I’ve got well over 1000 miles out of a pair and they still have grip and the uppers are in great shape"
"I've used them for 1500 miles of multi-day hiking with no issues!"

"they hold SO MUCH WATER. ... They are not waterproof, but they don’t drain very well. ... I wish they drained better."

"I hate that nylon sags and it's actually pretty weird it sucks up water. The last thing you want a tent to do is get heavier, stay wet and lose tension."

"In the front right corner of the left shoe (and vice versa with the right one) they have a strange sharp strengthening that cuts against my toe. ... It doesn't really hurt the first few kilometers, but if I run over 8 km, especially in the descents they destroy my toe to a point it really hurts a lot and I can't wear the shoes for another 2 days."
"The shoe feels extremely stiff ... the foam feels very firm ... blocky feeling. ... for me the worst running shoe I ever ran in."
"Way too stiff underfoot."

"And then during a race in September the mid sole of one pulled right off with less than 200 km on them."
"during a race in September the mid sole of one pulled right off with less than 200 km on them."
"the exposed midsole on the heel area is a problem because any sharp rock can split the midsole in two very easily. ... After 150 km both shoes started to split from this area. I had to fix it by applying contact glue, and I ended up "filling" this space with glue to level it to the rest of the outsole."

"they blistered my feet even if I just used them for walking"
"they blistered my feet even if I just used them for walking. ... Hoka Challenger 7 are the first shoes I ever gave up on."
"pointy little toebox ... I got them in a wide and still got massive blisters on the insides of my big toes ... if you need a wide toebox, you may have similar issues"

"High stack does mean they're not the most stable shoes. Not for unstable terrain."
"if your footwork gets sloppy(tired/lost focus) on cambered or rocky trail descent, it can deal ankle roll damage. ... i rolled twice already."
"I find the higher the stack leads to more rolling ankles. ... Shoes that have not worked for me: Brooks Cascadia, New Balance Hierro ... they have been directly correlated to rolled ankles for me"
Raced 25K on similar terrain recently. Having worn various trail shoes I have found that Adidas Terrex Speed Ultra (old version) work exceptionally well on this type of dirt/rock.
r/ultrarunning • Signed up for 100k in the desert, need shoe advice ->Hoka challengers or adidas terrex for dry days, Salomon quest 4 gore tex for wet/muddy/snowy days
r/discgolf • Disc golf shoes? ->Have tried a few and here are my thoughts Saucony endorphin edges Very similar to endorphin pro 3s in ride. They are a fast shoe but let down badly by the grip (atrocious on wet rocks) and i struggled with the upper. Go half a size up to normal for these Brilliant for open firetrail Speedland SFD Is it carbon plated? Well they are in there but they offer the least assistance of any i have tried. Broad base and good grip with the absolute highlight being the lock down from the boas. Down side is they drain like shit without cutting the plug out and if you do that they let water in from any wet ground. Price is absurd for what you get Adidas terrex speed ultra This shoe is fast! Probably the quickest trail shoe i have used BUT They are incredibly unstable on anything even remotely uneven, hit a rock wrong and goodbye ankle. The instep rubbed my arch badly so only got 30k in them before passing them on l Hoka tecton x2 These have been an absolute workhorse for me. 400ks in my first pair and they have tons of life left in them. Maybe not the quickest ride but they are on par with the speedlands for stability but much lighter (cheaper too) Highlight for me is the way they drain Downside would be the tongue could be longer and thicker. Had issues with lace bite early on but got the fit dialed now. Great shoe for up to 50ks for me so far. Hoka tecton X3 Very bouncy ride, for me the most on par with road going super shoes. Took me a little to like and trust these shoes but now my go to race shoe. The grip is easily the best of all I have used including the X2s (can't beat vibram megagrip imo) They are wearing well and the ride settled down a touch to not throw me on bad landings( note it still will a bit) Down side, the lacing system not allowing a heel lock. Have to use thicker socks than normal (i prefer steigens) to mitigate the heel not locking 100% The upper is thicker than the X2s and doesn't drain quite as well but on par with most others
r/trailrunning • Anybody got any recommendations for trail running “super shoes?” ->Adidas Terrex for dry days, North Face waterproof trail shoes rain/snow days
r/discgolf • Disc golf shoes? ->Adidas Terrex Speed Ultra, I just feel really quick and nimble on a rooty or rocky trail
r/trailrunning • What’s the best trail running shoe you’ve ever owned and why? ->I use adidas terrex. Had them for 3 years and they’re holding up great
r/discgolf • Disc golf shoes? ->My Adidas Terrex served me pretty well given that I got them on a deep discount. Thinking about [Hoka Tor](https://www.hoka.com/en/us/all-gender-footwear/tor-summit/197634113876.html) for my next pair.
r/onebag • What is your one shoe to rule them all? ->Adidas Terrex after years in Keens. They're lighter and I can usually find them for $60
r/discgolf • Disc golf shoes? ->Adidas Terrex Ultra
r/trailrunning • Best shoe for a non-technical 10k trail / road race? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
