While Jade is one of the less bad and less overpriced overhyped HWs I would always recommend people learn how to build their own cold storage...to maximise your monetary sovereignty.
Its not difficult and completely frees you from dependence upon these third party devices.

IMO diy cold storage is far superior as you are more in control and you learn in the process rather than being reliant upon a gadget.
You can build a 100% offline wallet using a usb install linux OS

If you want to go even further build your own Bitcoin node.
And remember no HW can remember your seed phrase for you so one low cost option is to use this method to safely store your seed phrase long term.

Agree.
Seedsigner as well.

Also, you can do the same thing with Sparrow that this doc explains how to do, in Electrum - https://electrum.readthedocs.io/en/latest/coldstorage.html
