Yeah a little crude oil (a cupful) will just make you throw up (assuming you can get it down in the first place) and probably explode from other orifices as well, although in larger quantities it can be more serious. But used motor oil is carcinogen city, even leaving out the more immediately unpleasant contaminants.

Have you tried diluted Dawn dish soap? Works a charm when my plumage gets greasy. Then you just eat a bunch of sardines to oil them back up. Works great on dogs too.

No joke, dawn dish soap is a miracle.

I've never particularly loved stainless, but then I've also never really liked the alternatives either - White or black. We recently got new appliances and went with GE's 'slate' finish, and I really like it.

Concrete is sort of too vague a concept for me to make an all encompassing comment on - You can do quite a lot with it between stains/dyes/acids, and I *do* like some of the integrated sinks I've seen, though most are really shallow and impractical.

Let's be honest, if I was speccing out a kitchen it would all be rolled-edge stainless or 3" butcher block, and a commercial grade stainless hood.

I am not the normal consumer.

Flat-tops are really pretty inexpensive. In the 'few hundred bucks' range for 2'x2'. I'll be honest, my dream kitchen is essentially the small bakery I used to work for. Four burner commercial gas range with a still oven beneath it, double stack Blodgett gas convection ovens, and a rack proofer. Standup freezer, standup commercial fridge, chest freezer. 2 8' x 4' butcher block topped tables, one 8 x 4 stainless table, and a couple rolling racks.

Looks like a bare mattress to me. It might be something else, but it sure looks like a mattress, which is what really matters for these publicity shots.

It'd help if the light weren't such that it was washing out the horizontal stripe, making that mini check print look like mattress ticking.

Also, look at the back-left of the mattress. I don't see any foldover of the covers if indeed they are covers. It might be some weirdass fitted sheet or mattress pad, but it's not a blanket.

It's a fitted bedspread you goons, you remove it or fold it down to the foot of the bed before you sleep in it. I know it's probably a far cry from the bare mattress on the floor with threadbare blanket you all are used to, but christ.

Bed covers aren't blankets. They're something you put over the blankets/sheets to keep them from getting messed up until you want to get into bed. Furniture display makes a lot of sense because then they don't need to actually put anything under the bed cover because there's no expectation of folding the top back like you might get with actual bedclothes.
