I do too. It’s just a fresh light scent. I’ve been hearing good things about the PB Million. Will have to check that out. Hm have not heard of the Terre Di Hermes. I’ll add to my list.

I'm somewhere in the 30+ bottles. My favorite this time of year, Fall & Winter, MONTALE. I have 5 different bottles. Delicious and compliment getters.

The bottom cushion and support were awful, so I sunk in way past the point where my arms could comfortably rest on the armrests. They tried swapping out the bottom cushion insert with the one that was in the chair at the store, and that helped a little bit, but it was clearly the underlying support that was at fault. They offered to take the chair back, but wanted a 15% restocking fee. We paid $900 for the chair, so that 15% would have meant we were out $135 with nothing to show for it. We kept the chair and I put a folded up old blanket under the cushion. It still wasn't ideal, but I got used to it. That was maybe 18 years ago and we've never considered La-Z-Boy again.
We've got a couple of La-Z-Boy rocker/recliners in our bedroom, both are different from each other and both are very nice. Yesterday spent all day looking at chairs at several different places and this was the nicest chair I found. Also looked at reviews online and most were very happy with this particular chair. It wasn’t cheap when comparing to some of the other chairs I looked at, and, this chair fits me like a glove. Electric recliner with adjustable lumbar support. I did my research and I think I'll be okay.

PS - this chair is going in the family room replacing a 20+ year old chair that was pretty comfy in its day but has gotten worn out over the years.
UPDATE

My chair was delivered today. Very comfortable. Just like the one I sat in at the store (pic here). All is good. Hoping for better days for my poor ol' back.

Did you cross-shop Ekornes Stressless? I just traded in my 1 year old recliner after I sat in their power “Mike” (which wasn’t as ugly as some of theirs), and my back is thanking me if I fall asleep in it.

Stressless furniture is more like a Volvo seat, not super soft and padded, but really supportive in the right places.

Where did you find the deal? I’ve been looking into getting a set possibly.

Thanks for the heads-up! Different nozzles weren't on my radar. I wouldn't have thought wouldake a difference unleaa the orifice size were different but good to know.

Currently using it outside so the noise doesn't bother me too much. Eventually, I'll want to add a quick disconnect hose bib in the garage and a shelf + reel for the pressure washer/hose aetup but I'm a ways away from that. I could alsoaie a baffle for it if the noise was too much.

Casein? Just asking since I've been buying 10lb mylar bags from NOW. Ever since prices for ON's Gold Standard Natira Wheyl exploded to the absurd, I've been looking for another fillerless/junkless alternative. Whey is my primay but I sometimes mix in some casein.

Great question and spot on with the enormous price increase on quality Whey.
I am happy to say and show you that the first and second ingredients are, Isolate and Whey. Which as you know, are the best form of protein powder.
The Price was too good to pass up!
