I love when things just work

Good products just seamlessly work, with no problems. I love when that happens.

My Macbook, even though it's old, still works just fine. My Android Nexus 5 phone has lasted almost three years (a lifetime for smartphones) without being buggy. My thermos keeps my tea hot for hours, just like the label said it would.

Comcast cable and internet works half the time (thank God I have Fios now). The Bluetooth connection in my car sucks. The Hootsuite Android app, while valuable to someone who manages multiple social media accounts, sometimes doesn't listen to me. My dishwasher is the quietest dishwasher I've ever used but the dishes don't always come out clean.

If you can depend on a product just doing its job as advertised, that's a good product. The other bells and whistles are just gravy.

Some of the best products are the ones we don't have to think about. It's pretty simple - build something that works, do what you say you can do, and everyone wins.
