"I'm trying to understand why anyone would want or need this, or what problem it's solving. It looks contraption-y, and there are a million and one quickly assembled and/or deployed stools. Even in high end furniture, simple turned wooden legs with threading attach easily and have been around "forever", so it's not like humanity has been itching for easy ways to connect legs to stools. Perhaps this design provides added "convenience", but at the cost of looking like young Forest Gump's legs.How about a glass stool seat with three wine bottle openings on the bottom that receive corresponding legs with wine cork tops? How about a plywood seat with legs with c-clamps tops that grab the wood? (we've seen that one enough by now, right?)How about seat with three fleshlights that receive dildo legs?Is this supposed to be art or design? As design: it's simply not a great looking stool. As art: it isn't very thought provoking or interesting.FYI - I 100% believe that it's our job as designers to push boundaries and explore, and I have nothing but respect for people who build and experiment, but my comment is really just frustration over the glorification and circlejerkification of designers making unnecessary art objects and pretending like it's more than that."

"Man, I checked in on Core for the first time in a while to see if you guys started posting any decent content again... guess not.Poorly researched post, as was the "Why are WiFi Routers So Darned Ugly?" post you reference, which didn't include this or any other decent looking routers/mesh systems. It's like doing a post called "Why are chairs ugly?" and posting a few images of ugly chairs only.Linksys has used this aesthetic since 2017. They gave you this "breath of fresh air" about 4 years ago - this is just a new Wifi 6E variant. The press release probably doesn't mention the understated design because it's not even remotely new, actually a bit dated.This message was brought to you by a "darned nice looking" Google Nest Wifi System."

"Please Core... for the love of God... Stop. Posting. Such. Garbage. I have been a Core follower for about a decade and am appalled by the decline in quality content being posted over the past couple of years. I used to enjoy your content, now I just find myself getting frustrated avery time I visit your site.I can only imagine that this Kickstarter campaign was even written about because of the involvement of Spencer Nugent - a total has-been in the design community. It's one of the least creative Kickstarter campaigns that I've ever seen. It seems like the creators learned about the possibility of private-labeling off the shelf goods and thought that it would be a good way to pull a fast one on the Kickstarter community. I'm happy to see that the campaign has stalled out at less than half of its goal. The Kickstarter community is learning to sniff out the BS and stay clear.I'll probably get a response from Jonny Jenson reiterating the fact that they actually busted their balls to "develop" these products... so to that I say: if you weren't designing the bezel, jaws, bar, scale, or any other metal component of your calipers, what on God's earth took you 12 months to develop? If you were doing this as a side project, then sure... 12 months of 4 hours a week sounds reasonable. But considering you sourced all of your hard goods and designed a soft goods case (or maybe sourced that too) for it, you can't go around claiming that you "sincerely worked hard to create something that we thought was great." Unless maybe the word "create" was supposed to say "repackage". "

"Regarding Jason's comment - is this thing supposed to be stored in a pocket? Is the whole "balls and a shaft" aesthetic intentional? "
