Being able to save on our purchases is something that pleases everyone, and it is always useful to to avoid waste or incurring unnecessary expenses. Sometimes, however, to avoid having to reach for your wallet again and again, you need to invest in objects of superior quality. Quality items will last longer and sometimes are much better for our health and welfare.

Here are 5 products we recommend spending a little bit more on:

There is no doubt that quality suitcases are expensive, but settling for the cheap ones is a false economy. We all know luggage is treated roughly, especially by airlines. Cheap luggage will suffer and can even bust open. Cheap suitcases are fine for trips in a car, but for long journeys where the suitcases are crammed into a hold, it is likely that you will get a nasty surprise once you arrive at your destination.

It is very rare nowdays to have running water in homes that is still safely drinkable: this is certainly true for most major cities. There is always a problem with old plumbing, or limescale in the water. As a result, it is best to ensure our water is as clean and healthy as possible by using quality water purifiers and filters.

Pet food

Just some quick research about the world of pet food will show some uncomfortable truths. Healthy brands are rare and expensive, but they help us avoid expensive veterinary bills. And the best alternative, as a compromise, is to prepare our pets' food ourselves, following the instructions of a trusted veterinarian.

Pots and pans

A quality pot or pan, in addition to lasting over time, does not release harmful substances into the foods that are cooked inside them, nor do they alter the flavor of the food. Here, it is also good to do a little research to find products that are not of the lowest quality.

Sports shoes, clothing and equipment

A pair of shoes suitable for exercising can make a big difference, and not only in terms of comfort and performance: it is also a question of health and safety (avoiding slipping, for example) and health (reducing impact on the bones, especially the spine, is very important). And the same goes for any clothing or equipment you play sports in or with.
