About me

If I wouldn't use it, I don't sell it.

That's the whole idea behind El Perro Viejo. Not a slogan someone came up with in a meeting, just how I actually run this.

I'm Juan. Before this, I spent 6 years working in construction, where a tool either works or it doesn't, there's no in-between. You learn fast which gadgets are worth your money and which ones fall apart in a month. That's the standard I hold everything I sell to.

El Perro Viejo started in Kitchener, Ontario, with a simple problem: I kept finding practical, well-made gadgets that made everyday life easier, car cleanup, road trips, small fixes around the house, and I couldn't find them anywhere local that I trusted. So I started bringing them in myself, testing every single one, and only keeping the ones that actually held up.

No corporate speak, no products I haven't personally tried. Just useful stuff that works, from someone who uses it too.


Got a question about a product, your order, or just want to say hi? I read and answer these myself.
