I'll add yet another Honda Accord (2000) to the ones already mentioned on this thread. And I love my Honda mower.

Every Bosch tool I own is outstanding.

I recently became the owner of a 1980 vintage Amana Radarange, and it works as well now as it did then. It also has a feature I have not seen on any newer microwave: While cooking, you can turn the dial to decrease the amount of remaining time. Every other microwave I've ever seen only allows you to increase it.

Finally, Goodyear Wranger Silent Armor tires.

NEST thermostat sounds interesting although I like my recently purchased Robertshaw unit.

Came here to post the same thing! My XL BGE is one of the best investments I've made.

REI all weather, basic black jacket. I realized when I had it on at once at Volcanoes National Park I had packed the same jacket to wear to see plays in London. I can wad it into a ball and it still looks good. Great for traveling no matter where we go. The lining is first decaying now after 20 years of wear.

Mr. Beam motion lights - They turn themselves on and off as we walk around the house.

Yeah, it's a calendar put out by the reloading company Dillon, which in my reloading days was "the press".

That's dumb as the OP was asking about consumer products as I re-read the 1st post.

I thought about that. I could not think of anything off-hand as I am not an avid consumer and do not own too many brands of the same thing to know which is better. Canon vs. Pentax vs. Olympus or whatever? HP vs. Dell vs. Lenovo? I dunno. And I also need to compare within the same price range. Better stuff usually costs more, and a maker offers his gear in multiple price ranges.

Kuhn Rikon pressure cooker - so quiet! No little part to keep track of (all built in).

After watching the demonstration videos on their website, I'd like to try some of their other cookware such as

Hotpan - Energy Efficient Cookware - Products - KUHN RIKON SWITZERLAND

or

Durotherm - Energy Efficient Cookware - Products - KUHN RIKON SWITZERLAND

My friend has one of these. I have a good older French pressure cooker which is no longer manufactured, I think from the 80s. When/if I need parts that I can no longer get for it, I am getting one of these Kuhn Rikon models. Very high quality, though clearly not cheap.
