Robot vacuum. I got the Eufy Robovac on a black Friday sale and have never fucking looked back. Those things are magic, especially if you have a kid or a pet.

Bambu lab 3d printer (~1600 usd). I have managed with other much less expensive printers but they give so many headaches. This one is almost idiot proof and i dont even wink about leaving it on over night anymore. Clearly one of my best purchases as it has engaged me into what i actually want to do which is 3d design, not constant maintenance.
Ski goggles. I got them one year when the windchill was strongly in the negatives. Now my glasses don't fog up, my eyes don't hurt from the cold, and I don't get glare-blinded by the sun. Best $40 I ever spent. Probably more like $50+ in today's money.

Audible. I used to pirate audiobooks and get them transferred to my phone and then use a glitchy audiobook app to listen to them which semi frequently lost my place.
Audible just made my life easy. The 1 credit a month is a bit shit but I listen to long ass books anyway (30+ hours) so I haven't really noticed.

My Italian five-ply stainless steel frying pan was a game changer for me. Mountains may crumble, but that pan will be with me forever and making cooking in a pan an absolute joy.
