This is not a conversation about guns. This is a conversation about items that have withstood abuse that are near unbreakable.

Some items I have heard referenced as AK47 of:

Gerber MP600: It's a multi tool

Old Thinkpad Laptops

Mag lights

Toyota Hilux

The AK-47 is a specific product from the class of assault rifles, whereas “rice cooker” product class, not a specific product of a class.

Ah right, the post confused me a bit.

I recently bought a zojirushi rice cooker because of their reputation for making perfect rice and lasting decades. So it's the AK of rice cookers. Or more like the AR because it was $200.

My man... 200 for a rice cooker, does it at least give you a reach around?

[-] Idontevenknowanymore@mander.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

It even plays a happy little tune while it does it.

Okay, I'm sold.
