Pure anecdata but I've backed ~180 projects on KS and I've only had <6 that have completely failed to deliver or have had huge issues with the delivered products. There's a lot of long delayed ones on that list but only a few that have truly felt like I didn't eventually get what I paid for or reasonably close to it.

If you're a bit choosier about the things you back you can get pretty good results from the site.

That's an insane number (to me). What do you consider to be your "best buy"?

A few I use every day; the Wyrmwood Modular Gaming table (dining room table with removable top leaves and a game vault), the Keyboardio Model 100 (wood ortholinear split keyboard that's been my daily driver for WFH since I got it), Sandsara, Radiant Urban Sling (been my daily bag for a few years now). Then there's some not every day uses I still enjoy a lot; a couple board games and TTRPG settings, Lancer, FANG, Root, Mind MGMT are the big ones I've had a lot of fun with friends playing.
