When we got married we were frugal with our kitchen equipment and our electronics. We really got the best quality/value in our budget, it wasn’t the cheapest but everything is an A-grade or an A+, and our washer is a frontloader, and we got the guarantee too.
We were cheap with the bedroom furniture, and I still regret it. We got the cheapest bedroom set. The bed has sharp edges and we cut our legs when bumping it (ouch!), the dresser drawers fall out too often, and the wardrobe’s doors are crooked despite our best efforts.
