Method & privacy

Simple math for deliberate buyers: one purchase versus the recurring spend it replaces.

How we calculate

Investment = purchase + accessories + financing interest. Monthly savings = how often you replace a habit × (outside price − home cost). Months to break even = investment ÷ monthly savings. If savings are zero or negative, we show Never.

Defaults are scenarios you can override. Your real bills always beat our presets.
