I purchased this little spin dryer for my motorhome.  I knew that the clothes would not actually "dry" while spinning, however, I didn't realize that the clothes would be so nearly dry.  It won't hold my husband's huge jeans, but it will spin with anything else I put into it--underwear, blouses, shirts, slacks, swimsuits, etc.  I haven't dried more than one or two articles at a time so it only takes one to one and a half minutes for each "load."  I also like the hook on the back of the unit to hold the electrical cord and the way the drain hose tucks underneath when I'm ready to put it away.
I also own the little Wonder Washer and together these two units keep my clothes clean while we are on the road. Both items are gentle on the clothes. I don't have to lug a huge basket of clothes to the laundromat all the time, so I am saving time and money.  I wash and spin dry our clothes in the evening and put them on hangers; the next morning I put the dry clothes into the closet and I'm ready to enjoy another day of traveling or sight-seeing.


I was looking for the replacement filter for the refrigerator I bought 6 months ago and could not find the "00020A" I contacted Samsung customer service via chat and they told me I needed to order from their parts distributor and that I would need to call during regular weekly hours. I persisted by asking what model is compatible and was eventually told this was the compatible filter for my Samsung RF263TEABC French Door Refrigerator. Their website did not list this as the replacement for my model and I was told the website must not have been updated. No big deal. So they confirmed this is the replacement and I got it here, much cheaper and faster.

+ Tastes Great
+ Easy Direct Replacement
+ Month Stickers to Place on New Filter as a Reminder (I put it on the knob)

- Reduced water pressure quite a bit. The original pushed water out with much more force.

_Bottom Line_ Yes, I would recommend this and I would also recommend contacting Samsung support if there are any questions regarding compatibility. This filter works great, the water tastes good, but the pressure is reduced (at least in my experience). 4 Stars for the drop in pressure.


For the money I think it is OK.
I removed a Kobe, we had some problems turning the Kobe on and had no response to help, e-mails. So I bought a Proline. this Proline is half the cost. The Kobe is thicker gauge. The Kobe has nicer lines and better edges. And a lot quieter. But I am compairing it to a item at twice the cost. this may not be fair
Cons
I had to make a hole saw hole on the right side because that is where my plug is.  they could have made a knockout on both sides!
The finish is ok but not a good as Kobe
Very very loud, com paired to Kobe
very thin
rivets stickup so it does not sit tight at the top.

Pros
Was 1" higher and 1" less deep. I liked this
Love the buttons in the front where you can see them.

we were cooking some Salmon tonight and I turned up the fan, The wife turned it down because it was to loud
So if you only had $400. to spend. this is great. My Kobe started to give trouble after 10 years. I think it just needed a new control board, but Kobe would not answer me.


Dew point display was the feature that made me buy this product. It has worked well, has a long battery life, and is accurate. The dew point shows how much humidity I can safely add in the winter without condensation forming on the windows. It also indicates the efficiency of the air conditioner in the summer. "Delta T" (the change in temperature, the temperature of the intake air minus the temperature of the chilled air) shows how much heat the air conditioner is removing. Since the a/c also removes moisture, the dew point tends to be the same as the evaporator plates, which is the temperature of the chilled air. (Unless you live in a dry climate.) So, just noting the difference between the ambient air and dew point indicates the efficiency. It is amazing how much more efficient the a/c is in the morning, when the outside temperature is in the 70s versus how little chilling happens in the afternoon in the 90s. I quit running the a/c in the mid afternoon, and save a few buck on the electricity. It is a fine product. Spread the word about the dew point!


Second time replacing. Very poor design. After reading a post about fixing the issue, I looked for what might have been the real issue. I too noticed on the back the auger screw/rod was protruding too far back causing a deep indention on the back plastic. After looking at other video about replacing the dust cap I noticed it should not protrude too far back. Maybe that needs to be replaced too. Although I didn't order that part and followed the recommendation on another reviewer. I didn't quite understand their instruction but did what I thought was mentioned. I drilled a small 1/16 hole to the dust cap and found the smallest screw I had and screwed it in so that the auger rod could not screw further back than needed. Only time will tell if th is was the real reason for cup to constantly be cracking.
*if you had difficulty removing the top part where the tabs had to be pushed in, look at the screw auger rod.
* used for a ge cafe side by side.


I have owned and used this washer and matching dryer for 10 years without a problem. I found the mold problem to be very manageable by just wiping down the gasket after each use and of course leaving the door open. I have read that newer versions of this have one or more tubes connected to the main door gasket, I guess to help minimize the mold problem but haven't really verified this. My washer just recently started to shake and smoke and after investigating on the internet determined that the probable cause was a broken spider bracket that is used to stabilize the drum when it is rotating. There is a great U-tube video that clearly shows how to replace it. Sooooo I decided to buy the new spider and replace it myself rather than buy a new washer. After disassembling the unit I was shocked to see how destroyed the spider bracket was. It appears to be made of cast aluminum without any protective coating and corroded beyond belief. Of course then it was broken in several places. The replacement spider bracket that I received is of the same faulty design and so I spray painted it as others had suggested. I still do not have the washer repaired as I had to order some new mounting bolts and am waiting for their delivery. I THINK THAT LG NEEDS TO CORRECT THIS DESIGN PROBLEM AND PROVIDE SOME COMPENSATION FOR ALL CURRENT OWNERS!


Even if I had read the bad reviews, I might have bought this since the bad reviews weren't so bad -- but our experience is BAD.  Our whole water system is now broken. I've had this fridge for 7 years, used multiple GE brand filters and never had a problem.  With so many good reviews, I bought this one, but also a GE one as a backup.  HUGE MISTAKE.  When I put it in, it made that horrible, grinding, rattling noise another reviewer described -- and I haven't gotten water out of it since. I immediately put in the new GE filter, and even tried the old GI filter. Nothing.  I contacted the company and their claim is that the problem is with my water line.  It worked fine before this filter.  I'll be getting my money back but now my water/ice system is completely broken and I'm buying water at the store and making ice.  ABSOLUTE CRAP. CRIMINAL MISREPRESENTATION.

Update: posting a picture. Two hours today working on this, and found the problem. The grinding noise I heard was the filter grinding down the plastic piece that has to be engaged for the water to flow. Replacing this part will cost me $197 at GE, and that's if I do the labor. Save yourself some money and don't buy this filter!!!


Fairly quiet, reasonable to install, and looks great with lots of compliments.  I would buy this again.

I put this in my kitchen that had a vent and wiring, but had never actually had a range hood installed.  I liked that I was able to bridge the gap between black appliances and stainless steel appliances with this model. (still converting some of the appliances)  My kitchen is not huge so I wanted a range hood that would not dominate the area and block the view.  I have 10 foot ceilings and I was able to hang this 34 inches above the range top which to me was perfect so that you can be on the other side and not have to duck to look at people at the dinner table when entertaining.....  or bump my noggin while flippin' hot cakes and burning bacon.  I did substitute the 4 frame to ceiling lag screws with bolt head hardware, else I used all the stuff that came with the unit.  The LED lights are very bluish and not very bright so I will try to find something that will fix that like some 5050smd pods or whatever.  the clock is only 24hr time format but I could totally have done with not having a clock on it at all.  I must have 4 clocks in the kitchen when you add it all up ?


We moved to a house and had to adjust to 30" and I thought this was the answer. It isn't ! Don't buy this piece of junk!

If you have a skillet or stockpot on the center burner (which is the only one that works decent) the rest are useless. Sorry but 30" is still 30".

If that were all I wouldn't write this review over a year after purchase.

The grates are too high from the burners. The heat destroys any plastic handles and you need to use an oven mitt with steel. It is an inefficient use of the heat and downright dangerous. I can't explain how bad it is in words.

To add insult to injuries, the genius that designed the heavy duty stainless steel knobs wants you to buy lots of them at $30 each. They are attached with extremely cheap plastic mounts that break with the slightest pressure. The pics attached are from the 2 I currently have broken. They literally snapped off when I turn off the burner.

I'm not "review guy" but is like to slap whoever green-lighted this stovetop at GE.


I went with this filter because the price was attractive, but soon learned I got what I paid for. Soon after installing and purging air as normal, I noticed water collecting on the freezer drawer below. I considered it a freak accident, wiped up the water, and went about my business. The next day, I noticed another puddle. I made sure the filter was seated correctly and was not cracked or had damage to it. All seemed fine. I wiped up the mess. Later that day, the water was back. I pulled the filter out, turned it upside down, and noticed how easily the water drained from it. This was in comparison to all the other filters I've put in it in the past which didn't leak at all without force. Needless to say I threw the filter away and went and bought a new one made by GE that has been working fine ever since. If I was sent a damaged filter, there was no way to tell. So I'm going to have to say this filter is crap and recommend you don't get suckered in by the price.


My dryer's required part was WE25m40 which only difference from this kit is a flat hole ion square bracket. The hole is to fix thin spring like tentioner but this kit (WE25X205) successfully replaced the WE25m40. Shape and size of each parts fits exactly with my dryer although I had to find an extra volt to fix tentioner after I stripped the volt by applying too much force.

Local appliance repair person normally charges $40 for parts and $100~150 for labor to replace this part because this drum bearing is in the very back area of the dryer and entire drum need to be removed in order to replace this bearing kit.
It took 40minutes for me to do entire job. Actually 10 minutes to view a repair guide on youtube ([...] and 30 minutes of actual work time. What I spent were $20 (including $7 for overnight shipping with amazon prime), 40minutes, and a bit of sweat by doing some weight lifting (kidding).

Overall, I am satisfied with this kit.


I bought a Waste King model 8000 to replace the 15 year old InSinkErator in this house. Unfortunately the only discharge tube supplied with the Waste King was a 90 degree bend. To use it as-is I would have had to create a much longer series of pipes that included 360 degrees of turns to mate up with the original drain system. So I bought this InSinkErator flexible discharge tube. I was very skeptical that it would work because right through the packaging I could see that the metal bracket would not fit over the plastic flange. Furthermore the packaging clearly states that this product is for certain InSinkErator models. Then I read about softening the plastic in hot water and forcing the metal bracket over the softened plastic. That worked just fine. You don't need to heat the plastic up much. 30 seconds in very hot water should do it. Put the metal part on first.

Now which way does the black neoprene gasket fit? Clearly there is an internal groove that fits over the white plastic flange, but there are two ways to install it. Notice that one side of the black plastic has a thin lip but the other side lacks that. Install the black plastic such that the thin lip faces the corrugated part of the tube. It will serve to center the metal part properly with respect to the black neoprene.


Paired with the Wonder Washer, it does the job. I no longer use the laundry room in the apartment building. I couldn't be happier about saving over $350.00 (in quarters) a year.
I wash all my clothes, (except heavy towels and sheets) in the Wonder Washer, spin dry and then hang them on racks and hangers to dry.  I am 61, live alone and have arthritis in my hand, neck and shoulders. The spin dryer is fabulous, eliminating the excess water in the clothes. I still work full time as a florist, so my clothes do get dirty. I love being able to wash a few things at a time.  I will not go back to using dark, dirty, expensive laundry rooms. Granted, it may take a little longer, than using washers and dryers, but it is so worth it, not to use dirty public washers and dryers, that are "out of order" half the time.
If anything were to happen to my little spin dryer, from Laundry Alternatives, I would not hesitate a moment to buy another one. I am so pleased about not having to carry and drag laundry outside, and down dangerous brick steps.
Nor do I have to get up super early on my day off, to try and beat the other tenants to the laundry room. It is a cleaner, less expensive, and less stressful option for doing laundry.


I really liked this combination probe.  I have several thermometers and one other humidity probe, but having both together in a sturdy package is very nice.  I've been using this probe in my basement to make sure the humidity stays in a good level to reduce the chance of mold.  Most people said the humidity reading was instantaneous, but I found I had to wait a couple of minutes for it to stabilize.  I probably was in a couple of percentage points quickly, but I like to be exact.  The temperature measurement was very quick though, stabilized in a couple of seconds.

I really like that the temperature probe is able to be put down into ductwork so I can measure the AC temperature in the duct and not wait until it mixes with the room air.

The unit appears very sturdy and well made, there is a carrying case included to keep it from getting banged up.  I would recommend adding this to your test arsenal if you have a need for measuring humidity and temperature.


I love this darling little machine and the darling little dryer I bought with it. The hose without the extra attachments that came with it connected to my tub, which is fitted with a hand-held shower head. So try that first, before adding the extra parts that come with it.  I went to the hardware store to get a hose-splitter so I can keep both connected at all times. I just turn the knob to direct water to the washing machine or the shower head, whichever Im using. Make sure to keep the outlet hose raised as you see how Ive hooked it up in the picture. The hook came with it. If you leave it on the floor of the tub, it could create a vaccuum effect and drain water while the washing machine is filling, which tricks it into continuosly adding water. Easy solution, just raise the hose up, so you don't accidentally create suction. It works beautifully. I really love the 3 different water levels to chose from. You can literally wash only your delicates and under garments separate from other clothes without feeling guilty for wasting water. The spin cycle doesnt make much noise at all. I positioned the machine so that its not touching anything else, and is sitting squarely on a bath mat. This keeps it stable and sturdy so that I don't hear the spin cycle. If I shut my bathroom door, I hardly hear the machine at all, but can still hear the beep when its done.


Wife is happy. I am happy. I used the motor only to fix trouble codes and slow draining. Motor twist locks off of strainer assembly. i recommend using plumbers grease on o-ring to perform this. It will allow the motor to be replaced without turning the washer over to remove the mounting screws associated with the mount.

Unit was significantly cheaper than the Sears parts website. make sure motor part number on old unit matches this one exactly. installing this myself saves over $100 in labor and took all of 30 minutes.

1. Unplug washer
2. Remove cover at bottom of washer
3. Open strainer and drain and remove debris.
4. Unplug the wiring harness from the old motor. Carefully place it off to side.
5. Untwist old motor and remove. Clean the strainer surface with a foam swab or clean towel.
6. lubricate new motor and install motor with slight pressure and twisting motion.
7. plug in wiring harness into new motor.
8. plug in washer and run test rinse cycle. (check for leaks and error codes)
9. install bottom cover


We selected Electrolux appliances when we built our new home.  Soon after moving in we noticed that the wall oven had circular scratches on the porcelain bottom liner.  We notified our builder and they in turn got in contact with the dealer they purchased the oven from.  After several visits from the dealer's service department, we were notified that they will not be fixing the oven.  I contacted Electrolux directly with the hope that they will address this manufacturing issue.  Unfortunately, I was told that since I did not contact them within 60 days, it was not covered in their warranty.  The customer service rep was rude and short.  I explained that the Electrolux dealer was notified of the problem within 60 days even though we did not contact Electrolux ourselves.

Just yesterday, our Electrolux dishwasher (EW24ID80QS) stopped working. It is constantly making a sucking noise as if it is trying to clear water but there is no water in the dishwasher to empty.  I shut off the power to the dishwasher to reset it but it keeps making the suction noise as soon as the power is turned on.  None of the buttons on the panel seems to work.  I am dreading the call to Electrolux customer support.  Wish me luck.


We were looking for a modern double oven to replace our 20 year old unit and didn't want to pay an arm and a leg. In looking for reviews on this GE oven, I found only a couple, mostly favorable. We also looked at similar ovens from Whirlpool and Maytag, both of which had many more reviews.

What stood out with the other brands were complaints about how noisy they were. One person described the noise like an airplane taxiing in their kitchen! I didn't even know these new ovens had fans, as they are not convection, and our old oven had no moving parts whatsoever. Nervous about this noise issue, I ordered the GE since none of the five reviewers even mentioned noise. Well, I'm here to tell you, this oven is QUIET. Yes, like all these modern ovens, it has a cooling fan that continues to run even when the oven is turned off, but it is a very faint, soft noise, not a bother at all. I was relieved!


This unit is nicely styled to be as unobtrusive as possible so you could use it anywhere in your house and it's rounded edges are nice if you have kids running around.

It was easy to install although a bit heavy to move upstairs where we needed to use it.
This really helped with a room that we just can't seem to keep cool without the rest of the house being freezing cold.

It would be great if you enclosed a porch or patio and needed to cool a space that has no duct work.  It is easy to install and simple to operate.  As long as you have a window and an electrical outlet near where you want to use it, you are all set.

ADDITIONAL INFO (8/31): Last night our air conditioning broke down and upstairs was like a toaster (Florida in August). We slept downstairs but my daughter was happy to have the air conditioner in her room. In the middle of the night, upstairs was so cool I could sleep in our room comfortably too. We were so glad to have this unit!


We have been using this cook top for about 7 months now, and I absolutely love it!  We had a 25 year old electric range before this so it was like going from a junker to a porche!  The unit is incredibly responsive, I can go from a hard boil to a gentle simmer in a matter of seconds, with our old unit I would have to change burners to do this!  It is incredibly fast, just a few short minutes to boil water for pasta.  It is very easy to clean, most often I only use water but maybe once a week I use the cook top cleaner.  I have read some complaints about the noise and I can honestly say it doesn't bother me.  When simmering or cooking on a lower temperature I don't even notice the sound.  When using a larger pot/higher temperature is makes a gentle humming sound.  Most of my cookware works with this (Le Crueset, cast iron), the few pieces that I did need I picked up at Ikea which were very inexpensive and have worked wonderfully.  I highly recommend this product and would definitely purchase again!


Had an issue where our dishwasher was not draining.  After checking many possibilities turns out this check valve had deteriorated/failed, with the round part becoming detached and blocking the drain hose.  Once we removed the broken parts and replaced with this part, dishwasher now functioning perfectly.  So the part as ordered worked exactly as intended -- but I gotta say, what a ridiculously engineered part -- our dishwasher is only 5 years old, and looking at the construction of this part we believe it's only a matter of time before it will fail again.  Guarantee 90% of owners would likely have encountered this problem, assumed a pump failure, and simply gone out and purchased a new dishwasher.  This wimpy part causes what seems like a significant issue when it fails, and it's clear it will only continue to fail.  Also - for a part that probably takes 5 cents to produce, the cost for this small piece of rubber seems incredibly excessive - but such is the parts business.


The plastic handle slips off. It is not usable. Not white either, is is ivory...which wouldn't bother me if it worked. The first one I got was the cheaper one (cost approx 12.75 before shipping. It was the one that arrived broken. Tried to find item at a local appliance parts store but the clerk seemed very uncertain that what they would fit b/c they did not have the exact number. So I decided to try amazon again, got one with a company with better reviews --

Whirlpool Dryer Lint Screen Filter 8557882,
Sold by Appliance Care Store

This one works perfectly! And it is white, not ivory.  When it came, it was not folded up like the first one. Looks to be a better quality than the first one I got too. It was slightly more expensive than the first but worth it.
So second one is 5 stars but first is 1 star. Wish they had these products listed as different items b/c they are not exactly the same.


We recently purchased this fridge to store beer, wine and water as these items were taking up too much room in our kitchen fridge.  We got an awesome lightning deal and only paid about $150.  We took Ken Dugal's advise (see review from February 28, 2017) and adjusted the thermostat screw behind the cover on the back before plugging in the fridge.  Our drinks are now very cold at 36 degrees and that is with the temperature knob set in the middle.  It was down below freezing before we adjusted the temperature knob.  We put a thermometer in the fridge overnight before we put in any drinks.  That way we could adjust without freezing anything.  We also purchased a small table to put the fridge on so that it is easier to get drinks out of the bottom.  They must have changed the spacing of rungs on the racks, because you no longer need mats to put on the shelves so that the bottles/cans don't tilt. We love the fridge thus far. It is perfect for what we wanted!


I  installed the drain replacement and time will tell if it allows the defrosted ice to flow to the evaporator tray. The old flume was frozen in the tray and part of the tray that hold the old and new part broke. The new part installed just like it was shown in the instructions, easy if you have good access to the rear of the Refrig. You still need to clear the ice behind the metal backing of the Refirg as well as clear the drain hole of the ice. If you don't then you will still have water flowing out of the freezer when it is defrosting. There are video on the web" You Tube" on taking the freezer door off and removing racks and panels to get to the drain, drain tray and coils to melt the ice. You may want to consider outside help for the defrosting. After studying the videos it took me about 2.5 hrs to do it all. Good Luck You Do It Yourselfers.


I'd give it negative stars if I could.

This DW came brand new with the house we purchased 1.5 yrs ago.  We have city water, and eventually bought a $5000 water purification system that feeds into all water in the house - and STILL this dishwasher can't do the job!  I literally hand wash dishes before putting them into the DW and they sometimes come out dirtier. I've tried Jetdry, no Jetdry, more/less detergent, expensive/cheap detergent, varying degrees of food on dishes...no luck. It's been like this since we got the house and before and after installing the purification system.

Another infuriating thing that happens is that the top basket's track comes off of the plastic wheels attached to the wall. This requires you to have to clear both top/bottom baskets out of the DW, get waist deep in the DW with a flathead screwdriver to fight to remove some stubborn cap off the back end of the track so you can feed it back onto the wheels, and then with brute force, cap the back end of the track once it's on the wheels (Oh, I know this probably doesn't make sense unless you've had the misfortune).

Don't be fooled by this DW's stainless steel looks. The top basket has always been loose, everything is of cheap quality and there are clearly way too many design flaws as evidenced by my complaints and others.


Been having this dryer with matching washer for the last 3 years now and it's great.  I prefer to wash small loads of clothes every day to every other day so it's definitely had some use. Very large and drys huge loads with a large assortment of different settings. Has no problem fitting my huge king size feather filled comforter that I had was too large for my last washer and dryer and had to be taken to the cleaners.

The quick dry works exactly as it should and it's what I mostly use since I do loads nearly everyday. The Quick dry setting has no issues drying a pair of jean, along with a couple pairs of shirts, socks, and underwear all in under 15 minutes.  The steam setting is probably my favorite and perfect when you need to quickly remove some wrinkles without ironing, and it also has a "Pet Bedding" setting as well which I use to wash both of our pet's beds.  It comes with a large plastic insert tray that goes inside the dryer in the very center allowing allowing you to dry shoes or other heavy, or delicate items items without them tumbling all around inside the drum.  I can fit up to three pairs of size 12 shoes on the plastic tray without any problems. Just wishing I would have purchased the bottom stands now when I bought the washer and dryer. It seems impossible to find just the stands now.


Amazon's part selector where you enter your model number (in my case a Maytag MSD2651HEB) and then it tells you if this will fit your fridge told me NO... this part is not for my fridge.  WRONG.  Glad I read the reviews, if you've got a dual-door Maytag that's around 10 years old this model works perfectly.  The only thing I needed to do to get it to fit the fill tube properly is cut a small piece of plastic that looks like it should be perforated for removal but isn't.  I used a razor blade to remove it, an exacto knife or scissors will work just as well.  The piece looks like it was designed to be removed but wasn't perforated at the factory and had to be cut out to fit my fill tube.  Everything else is self-explanatory to install (you will need to keep your old wiring harness).  Installed it, turned my freezer down as cold as possible (temporarily to get it going) and I had new ice within a couple of hours.  Turned my freezer back to my normal level and haven't had a problem since.  GREAT alternative to spending 2 or 3 times as much for a stock part.


1 Year later and this thing is still awesome, it just produced two beers that were cold enough to make me write a review! We were looking at a $900 GE and decided to try our luck with this at 468 last year. If you read good reviews youll pick up a few tips, heres what i did, first cut out the sides of the cabinets you are sliding it in-between, even a 2'1' hole helps a ton. Mine is a triple drawer base cabinet on one side and a big sink main base cabinet on the other so i cut out big rectangular holes. Next, don't over fill or leave empty, don't cram 50 warm drinks in and crank it to max cool either, once it gets cool your good, mine stays at 37 degrees dead set unless i leave the door open a bit long or add a lot of room temp drinks then maybe 38-39 tops. We have  water bottles at the very bottom then a box of Capri suns and then 6-8 beers, which unfortunately don't stand up well on the wire racks other than that we love it!!!!!!!


Full disclosure I bought my range from another retailer when it went on sale but I wanted to review since there are so few.
The range looks awesome, and the five burners on the 36 in are perfect for cooking for a crowd and canning fitting my large pots perfectly. The large oven is nice to have.
The drawbacks: I had to have an electrician upgrade my outlet and a plumber install a new gas line to accommodate the specs on the range, we were renovating at the time so not a huge deal, but unexpected.
The issues I have had was the delivery expected me to come and get the stove at the end of my driveway and bring it to the house myself, for such an expensive item they could do better here. Also the service from Eurochef who is responsible for the warranty work in the US has been terrible, I mean really really poor. My oven started acting up a few weeks after instal, fan running but no heat. They send out a tech that I had to wait over a week for, and he had never worked on Verona before. It ultimately took 3 service calls and multiple calls to Eurochef to resolve.
In the end I like the product but knowing what I know about how bad the warranty service is, I would spend your money elsewhere.


I first looked at this machine because it was touted as energy-saving. No heating element. Uses the heat from your hot water. Not food disposer. Just a filter that you have to clean.  Well, let me tell you...I'll pay the extra $50 a year in energy savings to get a dishwasher that WASHES DISHES! Yes, the unit is extremely quiet, good looking, and energy effecient. But it doesn't do what it intended to do. Clean your dishes! I've tried every combo of detergent and rinse agent, and my dishes are still filmed.  Within the same load, some are spotless and some are filthy. It make no sense.  And then there is the stench! Everyone else has mentioned it, and it's true. After 2 days of non-use, this thing start to really stink. Bosch had great intentions with this unit, but in reality, it doesn't work.  Just find something else.


Like someone else said, the filters came FOLDED in a small envelop.  For this price, they could have at least put them in a regular sized envelop.  Shipping was one day late but I don't necessarily fault the seller for that.  The product is as described but I really feel ripped off.  I mean, come on, twenty something dollars for 4 of these and on odd-shaped filter?  I bought them because I had no choice.  I couldn't find them anywhere else but I will try making my own out of felt next time.  For this price, there should have been a box full of them (at least 10 to 15) and they are paper thin, as one other reviewer pointed out, and weigh next to nothing, so that sure saves the seller on shipping costs.  So, my main complaint is not with the product, per se, but with the cost of the product.  I can't see how throwing in a few more filters would hurt the seller (cost-wise) and would make for happier customers.  On a side note, I have found that using a lint brush, after each setting, really prolongs that life of these things.  However, using the lint brushes gets expensive too.


This item arrived well packaged.  No install instructions are necessary, FIRST.. manualy trip the circuit breaker to your dishwasher, thn simply open up the front panel of the dishwasher using a phillips screwdriver,
and remove the old control panel.  Install the new one, and hook up the connectors (plugs are already installed) and re-energize the circuit breaker and turn the unit on.
My original touch-button panel was likely OVER-pressed (someone in the family thinks that if pressing the button lightly is good...then pressing it repeatedly and HARD must be better)...and damaged the switch membranes.  At least that was my HOPE.  I took a chance and ordered this after the "reboot" instructions from the original dishwasher installation manual no longer worked.  (Read your manual.  It has you press "heated dry, normal wash, heated dry, normal wash to re-set the computer."  IF that doesn't work...then this panel may work for you.  It did for me.  HAPPY!  VERY VERY HAPPY.


This combo fit my whirlpool dryer, leq9508pw1, perfectly. I looked up the replacement model numbers on the whirlpool website before ordering. My dryer was turning, but producing no heat. I do not routinely do handy work around the house, but I either had to attempt to fix this myself or wait over a week for a repairman. Prior to ordering the item I watched a YouTube video to gage the difficulty of the project, and it really seemed pretty easy. I had the dryer back taken off and the old heating element out within 10 minutes. I ran into a bit of dificulty putting the thermometer and heating element together. I would have liked to see the thermometer installed in the heater element since they were sold together. It took me a few minutes to put the two together and I had to use a pair of needle nose pliers. After that step, it was another 10 minutes to put everything back together and close the back of the dryer. All in all, the project only took about 30 minutes. I was happy to fix my dryer for under $25 since a repairman would have charged over $100.

I will update my review if I find any problems with the product.


I got this kegerator in December 2011 and I've been happy with how cold it keeps the beer.  However, there are a lot of problems with this kegerator:
1. Really poor quality casters.  This isn't a huge deal but because they have a ridge down the center and no give, they left lines in our floor when rolled.
2. Moderately loud burbling noise when on.  Kind of annoying, but not a dealbreaker.
3. The compressor has steadily gotten louder and louder and is now *extremely* annoying.  This is the reason for the 1-star review.  About 4 months after we started using this kegerator, the compressor started to get a lot more noticeable when it clicks on.  This is in an adjacent room from our living room, so it was a little annoying.  Now it's really loud.  You can hear it throughout the first floor of our house.

Unless you're keeping this thing in a garage or basement, this unit is probably too loud.  I'm looking into spending more money on a higher quality kegerator now.


I have owned GE appliances for all of my adult life.  Prior to moving to Florida, we did a whole-house remodel in CA and used all GE Profile appliances including an induction cook-top and two convection ovens.  It was wonderful.  We didn't want to begin another remodel so we decided to purchase this slide-in model.  The cook-top works like a dream but the convention oven is anything but.  The oven has a temp fluctuation of +/- 25 degrees.  That can be a 50 degree range.  And GE's idea of convection cooking has nothing to do with true convection.  The fan only runs until the oven reaches the set temp!  Now I thought something was broken - but NO -
the GE repairman assured me that everything was operating as designed.  It's a crock - and to call this induction is FALSE ADVERTISING!!!
We will never by anything with a GE brand on it again.  BUYER BEWARE.


Got this for a long term RV trip.  I am amazed by what this unit can do.  It has been able to handle a couple of huge bath towels without a hickup.  I would get cramps trying to wring out a small amount of clothing and when I would hang the hand wrung items on a line they would start dripping after a few minutes.  Not with this spinner!  Just a few minutes and the clothes come out almost dry.  Never any drips on the line after using this.  I like the simplicity of this unit.  Stuff, close lid it starts, open lid it stops, remove almost dry stuff.  I don't even worry about doing any wringing before I put the wet things in the spin dryer.  I have a system when I have to do more than one load of laundry.  Do my first batch, throw it in the dryer, collect some of the water from the dryer to add to my second wash. (hate to waste soap, and water!)  Do my second wash,  dump my wash water, put the dried laundry into my first rinse water while I dry my second batch of washed items.  Then repeat the rinse process.  Just for curiosity I ran laundry in the Nina out of a HE washer and found I could reduce the drying time for my HE dryer!


I'm running my first load now, it started right up, no issues with the band coming off during transit and it's heating up just fine. It's considerably quiet too! My cat looked at it for a couple of minutes and just walked right by it not scared at all and he hates loud noises.

I am giving this four out of five stars because the back panel does not sit completely flat and it comes right up to the edge and I can assure you it is VERY SHARP! I was trying to move it into place and my hand slipped and the edge of the back panel sliced right down the edge of my thumb through my fingernail and skin (gross I know, but hopefully this will make sure you're careful if you grab around the back of the unit) and left me with metal splinters in my hand.

Unfortunately because it's larger than I had anticipated, I am going to have to move it again... When I do, I will be padding the edges of the back panel and using straps since my petite arms don't quite wrap around the unit all the way.


Are you a DIYer?  Are you handy?  Are you somewhat familiar with PEX?  If so, you can do your own plumbing projects.  PEX is easy to use and pretty forgiving of mistakes.  The key here is using Sharkbite items with your PEX. I recently installed a new laundry area in our downstairs.  I checked on having the work done and it was going ot be almost $1000 for the running of the new water lines, installing a washer box, drain, etc.  I read up on the requirements to meet code and ordered this washer box along with the other parts I needed.

This washer box is very well built and sturdy.  It is highly flexible, allowing you to install it either from a top water feed or bottom water feed.  You simply have to reverse the location of the valves.  It has three separate knockouts for drains.  The knockouts punch out easily and with little effort.  The connections are push in connectors which are very easy to use, simply cut your PEX, debur, make sure your cut is straight and insert into the valve.  If you mess up, no worries, just press the ring around the valve and pull the PEX out.  I cannot recommend this any higher for a great looking laundry job.


This dryer is okay. The size is perfect. It came without any dents or scratches like some of the reviews mentioned. The only issue I have with this dryer so far is that it takes a LONG time. I find that the portable washer load size is not compatible to the dryer. I ended up hang drying half of my load and using the dryer for the other half. Also, I recommend ventilating this dryer. The whole room was like a sauna while it was running. It has to run on the high heat setting, the other settings are not efficient. If you are using a portable washer, spinning the clothes for the maximum time and then using the dryer helps cut a bit of the time! Overall, not a bad purchase.

Update: 4/26/18-This dryer has completely stopped working. Not sure what is going on with it.

Update 6/10/18-The replacement dryer stopped working this evening. There is a possibility that it overheats. I tried it again 30 minutes later and it started working again. Its weird. Im wondering if Im doing something wrong...


Anyone who thinks they don't have a problem with lint should look at these pictures.  My house is only 10 years old and this is what came out of our vent.  That doesn't even include what was cleaned out from our dryer filter and what was in just the dryer unit.  This product is very easy to use.  I definitely suggest taping each junction to make sure they don't separate in the vent.  I broke my cleaning into 4 cleanings. Fist cleaning was with just the brush and the first extension.  After ensuring that section is clean I added the second and so forth until the brush came out clean.  Given the length of the brush with all four sections, I found it easier to have another set of hands guide the brush into the vent while the other set was operating the drill.
I noticed that when I turned the dryer back on there was some lint that was dislodged and blew out the outside vent opening.  Unfortunately in my case some lodged between the slats and is keeping the vent opening from fully closing.  I will be making a trip up my ladder once the ground dries a little so I can remove those pieces.  A little price to pay for a clean vent.


I bought this machine years ago and I just wanted to take a minute to tell everyone - THIS MACHINE SUCKS!  I hate my washing machine.  It is all moldy, mildewy, and stinky.  I have to buy extra products that claim to clean it, but nothing works anyway.  Sometimes the smell will seem reduced, but then my daughter will do a load and forget to leave the door open and we're back to square 1.  The machine normally has the door open which is right in the way of the exit from the house to the garage, so the door is always banging around and hitting things.  That is the only way to keep the stink to a lower level -- but even with that the smell never goes away.

The other day it was making a weird noise and I actually felt happy that the machine might be breaking so that I could replace it.  It was so expensive that I didn't want to replace it earlier and I contacted LG and couldn't get a refund.  Guess it's time to bite the bullet and trash this thing.  I wouldn't even offer to give it away for $0 on Craigslist.  No one should be saddled with this terrible washing machine.

I will never buy another LG appliance.  There is no way that their engineers didn't know that they were selling a faulty, defective, terrible product.


Bought this because the bellow on my Whirlpool Front Load washer Model# WFW9050XW00 started to mold and tear.  Anyway this is the 3rd bellow that I have had on my washer however this is the first that I purchased and installed independently.  First of all $70 for a rubber ring is sad, however it was either this or a new washer (which will be soon, because I HATE front load washers).  Anyway, installation was fairly easy because there are a bunch of youtube videos out there that tell you what screws to locate and remove to take apart the front panels of the washer.  I found that the most difficult part was the outer retaining ring that is held together with a spring, you definitely need some channel locks or pliers to expand the spring enough to go around the outer lip around the barrel opening.  As far as the product, it is of good quality and fit so thumbs up for that, boo on the price.


My washer broke again. We only do 47 loads of laundry a dayhow could our dryer possibly break down? After diagnosing the problem, the dreaded coils were at faultagain. Locally, these buggers are expen$ive. Last time I purchased them, I remortgaged the house and bought the lifetime replacement coils from our appliance repair store only to have them go out of business a month later. Im thinking the appliance repair center finalized their purchase of a small Bermuda Island with just the money I forked over to them for coils. When I purchased the lifetime coilsthat must have been the closing cost that they needed.

These coils were a direct fit for our Whirlpool dryer. Fit and installation was a breeze and we were again able to wash & dry the 73 different daily outfit changes for our kids.  It has been almost a year now and the appliance is still going strong. What a relief.

Great quality here and it is passing the rigorous torture test in our home.  That should say enough for anyone to jump in and buy a set. I really cannot say enough good things and the price is terrific to boot. All in all, give these a try!

FYI: Our Whirlpool gas dryer is a model # WGD5840SW


As the title says, it works as advertised. It's a direct replacement for the bad bearing. This can be done with one man, but a second set of hands to help hold the carriage bolt on the outside of the drum is helpful. 15-30 minute job if you're handy with tools at all. Make sure you have the tools necessary on hand to speed up the process. Watched a video (link provided by another reviewer) prior to starting and didn't have any issues.

Tools needed:

1) Phillips screw driver
2) 22mm extra thin walled deep socket (7/8" socket will work fine, that's what we used)
3) 5mm Allen wrench

All in all extremely satisfied. Our Fisher Paykel washer/dryer combo is right at six years old, but it sees a LOT of duty (I do laundry at least once a day, not including sheets, etc.) If I have to replace the bearing every 5-7 years I can live with that as we absolutely love the top load dryer.


This thing is a life saver and is absolutely huge. Which I love! Im able to do almost a full load of laundry with each run I do. The pump is phenomenal and the agitator is extremely powerful. There are a few things I don't like which is why I can only do 4 stars. The first thing is the lint trap is completely useless. I take it out every load, and I might fine 1 hair in there every now and then. The power chord is too short. If the out let isn't close to the floor youll need an extension chord at least for my bathroom set up. The top where the knobs are gets water in it for some reason. Not a big deal but I fear for mold one day?? The water inlet hose is completely useless, it does do the job, but the time it takes to actually fill the tub is beyond too long. I just use a bucket. The last and final thing is the drain hose. I drain the water into the toilet so I don't risk a drain clog in my sink or tub. The hose just isn't long enough if you need it to reach the other side of your washer, thankfully a $6 extender worked wonders. All in all this thing is a beauty. I do not regret my purchase at all


We brought this to replace a five-year-old high-end Frigidaire unit with front-loading washer.  The Frigidaire had developed bearing problems in the washer drum (common to this model) and made a horrendous racket in spin cycle.  Frigidaire doesn't supply the bearings alone; one has to replace the entire drum assembly for around $500 including installation labor.  Additionally, the Frigidaire had very small capacity, especially in the washer.
The new GE unit overcomes both these problems; and in addition is very quiet while operating...much more so that our previous unit even before the bearing problems.  A few other reviews of this product complained about kit damaging clothes, but we haven't had this problem.  In fact, the only deficiency we've identified is that it lacks a buzzer or other signal that the dryer is finished.  If it had one we'd give it a maximum rating.

Installation was very straightforward and took only about 45 minutes.

We love it!


Looked at a number of cooktops. We decided to go Bosch all the way, and also got Bosch wall oven and dishwasher too. This is the best 30" cooktop out there. All the other 5 burner designs we looked at are useless because, yes you technically get 5 burners, but they're all so small and crammed together you'd be better with just the standard 4 burner. The Bosch 5 burner is the only one that's really thought-though the layout.. The main centre burner is really hot. The grates are heavy and substantial looking. They'll get good and greasy over time and never be cleaned :). And the knobs are metal not plastic so the whole thing looks high-end.  (sidenote: A salesperson tried to sell us a Dacor cooktop that was far more expensive, but fortunately i looked at the reviews and thought to stay away from Dacor. A friend bought a Dacor stovetop and the igniter stopped working in months.).


Do not buy from Maytag.  We bought our top of the line 5000 series in 2008.  We have had the sud/ f35 error twice.  We use HE detergent only and the correct amount.  The first time the repair required a new sensor, $400 with parts and labor.  The new sensor lasted 3 years and now we have the same error again.  Repair came out to diagnose the problem.  They said we needed another new sensor, the same part.  Technician said that it's a very common problem with Maytag.  They ordered the part and when they came back to install it, the new technician said that it wasn't the sensor but rather the entire control board that needs to be replaced.  One glitch he said that they don't make the control boards anymore!  Another $145 for the service call.  Luckily he agreed to take the $200 new sensor back and not charge me.  I have a top load machine at another home that lasted over 20 years with not one issue.  Maytag customer service is no help at all...I'm sure they get many angry and disappointed customers calling everyday.


We've owned this dishwasher for one year. Four repair calls so far . . . one of those repairs was an installation error, so that's forgivable. But the other three were for leaks that caused the instrument panel to flash, with all lights blinking. The "all lights blinking" error is so common for this Electrolux dishwasher (just check the Internet) that, ta-da, it's part of the lore of the model. If you buy one, beware--you will likely undergo the same issue. Luckily we bought the extended four-year warranty or we'd be up a leaky dishwasher creek without a paddle. So every few months, it happens again, we call the repair service, they come and fix it, it works a few more months, ad nauseum. Whatever is up with this model, Electrolux needs to do better or they will face a class-action lawsuit. We paid $1000 for this defective dishwasher. Sadly, when the machine is working, I love it--it cleans effectively, it's whisper quiet, it's an EnergySaver, and it has a ton of features. C'mon, Electrolux--all that engineering you put into designing the thing and you neglect to make it leak-resistant? For shame.


So, this is what life comes down to when you are 50 years old:  reviewing dryer vent cleaners while sitting at your kitchen table waiting for American Idol.  This is not what I envisioned when I was 12, I can tell you that much.  You kids who think it won't happen to you?

It will.  Sorry to burst your bubble.

That said, the product works great.  Our dryer pretty much stopped working and we were thinking we needed a new one, which was seriously going to eat into my plastic surgery budget.  One last shot before a trip to the appliance store was this Gardus LintEater.  My husband, who is not the handy one of the family, had to do the work as I have a torn labrum.  (Which sounds dirtier than it is - that's part of your shoulder.)  He, the clumsiest man in the world, had absolutely no problem using this.  I warned him to read the directions first, and he actually listened and followed.  He hooked it up to the drill, and away he went.  He got a bunch of musty, wet lint that had probably been up inside the wall since 1977  - probably consisting of bell bottom material and macram.

Now our dryer actually dries clothes again, and I can continue to save for my facelift. Thank you Gardus.


Never, ever purchase this product or you will have the months of aggravation that I have experienced... I had a wonderful Maytag stackable which was perfect... had it for 15 years without an issue and then moved.  I was unlucky enough to move into a home with the Frigidaire, brand new.  Lint and dust cover the opening of the machine after every cycle.  The lint goes into the open area under the door (WTF???? an open area above the lint trap when door is closed--are you kidding?) and I literally have to clean around the door, INTO the door and around the opening and into the lint trap before I even get the clothes out or lint will go all over clothing.  This isn't the worst of it... clothes take hours to dry... What a piece of dog doo.... I will take the hit and buy another Maytag.  Did they even beta test this dud... probably not and I'm sure the "engineers" have never done a load in their life to let this lemon come to market.  insult to injury, I have to give one star....


I received and used this little guy last night. Came in perfect condition, does have that slight odor another reviewer mentioned. But not too bad. Use much less soap so we'll save some money there as well. Washed a full set of sheets which came out pretty much dry. I'd say after 15min of hang drying, they were completely dry and ready to put back on the bed. I bought the hose attachments, but honestly, if you have a shower arm, you can just save the money and use that to fill the washing tank. That's what I ended up doing. You do have to walk back and forth a few times, as the entire process takes exactly 15min of wash time and 5min of spin time, but I'd much rather do it in the comforts of my own home then spend a day at the Laundromat. Also, I live in a walk-up apartment in NYC, so this saves me a lot of hassle. I do recommend a little lint trap, mine is still 'en route' so I will review that once I receive it. Thanks Giantex for making our lives A LOT easier!


This thing is GREAT!  I have about a 24 foot dryer exhaust pipe running between floors in my house.  I bought this and 12 ft of extension.  I carefully read some of the reviews and made sure I slowly inserted the fiberglass poles, after insuring they were tight and wrapped with duct tape.  You do NOT want to reverse direction of your drill when using this.  I can not imagine having to retrieve a pole that has disconnected and is inside the pipe.  The only problem I had was starting from outside the house and running the dryer so it would blow lint out as I went. I found since mine was so clogged I actually created a damn of lint near the dryer inside the vent. This was where the vent pipe took a turn up.  However, after determining the cause I went into the house and used the supplied cutter attachment and slowly proceeded towards the outside of the house.  I could feel the clog and soon the cutter had made its way thru the blockage.  Using a leaf blower I inserted it into the vent from the interior and two softball size lint balls blew out.  System cleared!!!  All is good.  Just be sure to take your time and do not reverse your drill.


I bought it to use the remote sensor in my cigar humidor so I wouldn't have to lift the lid every day to check the humidity.  The readings were never even in the same ballpark as reality.  I compared it against my calibrated digital hygrometer in the humidor. It swung wildly up and down, but at its best it was at least 20% off on humidity and 10 degrees in temperature.  Usually it was more like 30 - 40% off.  I had figured that if it wasn't accurate enough for the humidor, I could at least use as an indoor/outdoor thermometer as it is intended.  However, it is so inaccurate that's its useless even for that.  Even the "indoor" part is usually pretty far off.  Unfortunately, I kept it too long (3 months) to return it, hoping it would eventually settle down, but it never got any better.  I hate to be wasteful, but since it serves no function other then taking up physical space, it is going in the garbage.  Do NOT waste your money.


As the title states, the fan in this range hood is much, much better than the fan we had in the fan/microwave combo.  We did a lot of searching and research and the fan motors with the combo units are not as powerful.  So we had really hoped for a great fan when we installed range hood only unit.  While it is better than before, I still find I have to run it for a long time or in combination with opening the kitchen window (brrr, in the winter!) to get odors out of the kitchen.

The plus side is the fan is also much quieter than expected.  When we have it turn on half power, it can easily pull a paper towel up to it.  And the noise level between half power and full is negligible.  It also looks very nice.  We don't have the configuration in the kitchen for a really big fan or a modern curved look.  This looks really nice above our stainless gas stove/oven.  While I would buy this again, I only wish it had a little more power.


Women always say men don't listen.  But, I did.  And apparently this time it didn't go over well with my wife.

You see, our silverware basket was basically wore out.  When closing the dishwasher, the door on the basket would flip open.  This annoyed my wife like nothing else.  So, I decided that instead of giving it an easy "man fix"... grab a few bread bag ties and semi-permanently close the door on the basket... I'd order her a new one for Christmas.

As she opened it up this past Christmas morning, the look on her face was priceless.  I thought, "she LOVES it, you listened to her and she's going to be SO thankful".  My thoughts were wrong.  What was a look of joy quickly turned to disgust and hearing her say "you REALLY got me a silverware basket?" made my heart sink.

So a lesson to all guys.  NEVER, ever listen to the lady in your life again.  If she's asking for a new silverware basket, get her a cat.  If she wants a new set of dishes, get her an all inclusive trip to Mexico.  Alway think opposite of what she really wants.

I did receive a text while at work a few days after Christmas from my wife saying "well, the door on the basket stays shut now!".

It works fantastic.  I give the product 5 stars.


I rarely enter comments in these message boards but I wanted to say this worked for me too.  I felt a little uneasy about buying the rods - what if it didn't work.  I'd be out $50.00 or have to go thru the hassle of returning them to the vendor. But I really didn't want to pay a repairman $200.00.  So I took a chance and I must say it worked better than I expected. The washer seems to be quieter now than it ever did.  It was somewhat of a pain to get the lid up and to prop it up (I tied it up).  Getting the rods out actually is easier with two people.  My wife pulled them out while I pushed the drum out of the way.  When putting the new ones in I pulled up on the rods to get then in place while she pushed the drum.  We couldn't even figure out how we got them out but they did come out pretty easily. All in all it was great saving some money and getting a good result too!


I was VERY skeptical of this product after reading several reviews alleging this was somehow a counterfeit product. Long story short, this product is just as advertised and works perfectly.

A few reviews I read mentioned that OEM filters are made in Korea, compared to this "counterfeit" which is made in Mexico. When I opened the box, the first thing I did was check to see where it was made. This product is indeed made in Mexico, so I was highly disappointed at first and fully expected to have to send this back. But I took out my OEM filter to replace with this one, and to my surprise, the original product in my refrigerator was also made in Mexico. After seeing this, I decided to give it a try. I listened very closely for any "strange noises" coming from the fridge that other reviewers said occurred when using this filter. Nothing. There were no strange sounds, no lack of water pressure, absolutely nothing happened, and there was no change to my fridge after installing with this Amazon product.

My only guess is that people are not choosing the correct part number for their refrigerator. Samsung doesn't make it super easy to find the exact model numbers of their units, so maybe this is the cause of the bad reviews. If you match your model number with this filter, you will have no problems with this product. Highly recommended, especially for the low price compared to local retail stores.


Anyone who thinks they don't have a problem with lint should look at these pictures.  My house is only 10 years old and this is what came out of our vent.  That doesn't even include what was cleaned out from our dryer filter and what was in just the dryer unit.  This product is very easy to use.  I definitely suggest taping each junction to make sure they don't separate in the vent.  I broke my cleaning into 4 cleanings. Fist cleaning was with just the brush and the first extension.  After ensuring that section is clean I added the second and so forth until the brush came out clean.  Given the length of the brush with all four sections, I found it easier to have another set of hands guide the brush into the vent while the other set was operating the drill.
I noticed that when I turned the dryer back on there was some lint that was dislodged and blew out the outside vent opening.  Unfortunately in my case some lodged between the slats and is keeping the vent opening from fully closing.  I will be making a trip up my ladder once the ground dries a little so I can remove those pieces.  A little price to pay for a clean vent.


This was a perfect fit for my InSinkErator Disposal Model No. 555SS! I cut off the old baffle, slid this one in and voila! Done! Not more than a 5 minute installation.
When my old baffle finally disintegrated after 13 years of use, I was dismayed when told (by the less informed) that I would have to replace the entire disposal (which had nothing wrong with it) just to get a new baffle. I was beyond relieved to discover this product, shocked at the no-risk price and overjoyed at how well it's doing the job!
This product works with more than just InSinkErator's "Badger" disposal as noted in the description. Listed on the label are also the following models: 444, 555SS, 777SS, 60S, 80S, 100SS, Pro 333, Pro SS, Pro 77, and Evergrind Accessory.


This is a big waste of money. When the package arrived it was shrink wrapped.  As soon as I took the shrink wrap off, the items fell all over the floor because there was hardly anything left of the box. I took all the items out and put them together only to find that the  plug was European so I needed to purchase  an adaptor to use it  in the United States. I went to Walmart and spent another $11,00 for the adaptor. I proceeded to put it together only to find that the hole in the bag was too high so that the blower could not sit level on the floor.  It looked like it needed a piece if hose, but it didn't come with one. The hole in the bag was also too large to keep the plastic end of the blower in the bag tightly. I turned the blower on and it hardly blew out any  air.  I turned it off, then back on, and the knob fell off.  I couldn't get it back on because it broke. I could have made a better clothes dryer by using a hamper and a blow dryer which is pretty much what this is, but doesn't work as well!


I purchased these to replace the OEM filters that I have been spending $45 a piece on at Lowes. Everything I read about these filters indicated longer life and obviously a MUCH better value from a cost perspective. They were well packaged and fit perfectly. The only thing is a slightly 'off' plastic taste. As I do with OEM filters I flushed several gallons through the filter before using any of the water. Still, there was this persistent bitter plastic taste. After running several more gallons through it the taste began to diminish and has become less noticeable over time. I have used dozens of filter / softener technologies over the last 20 years and this is the first time I have had this taste perception issue. I willl have to see what the next filter is like in several months to determine if I will purchase again.

+++++ 7/14 update: The first of the three filters is about due for a replacement. This really isn't any longer than the OEM Samsung filter. However, we did have an extra person in our household for many months of it's life so it may have given an extra 10-20%. Other than that there is nothing else to report, the water was fine after cycling an extra couple of gallons out of it at start-up with no other taste perception issues.


Leaves lint residue all over my work and workout clothes. Ripped seams on two brand new work tops. We've had 3 service companies make 5 service calls over 7 months and still have no resolution. We've done everything all of their contridictory advice offered...bigger load, smaller load, less soap, arrangement in drum, extra rinse cycle, DO use all the custom settings, DON'T use all the custom settings, sanitize the machine. We've had 3 control panels and the water valve replaced so far. Whirlpool customer service continues to request service calls. After the 5th call, we cannot afford to take off work for a 6th one. They will NOT replace this machine and offered zero escalation point. Technicians are not paid for warranty calls so don't look for their help either. Warranty only covers parts NOT replacement. Returns were only allowed within the first 15 days of delivery - BUYER BEWARE! One service company suggested that front loaders are more gentle and do not leave this residue - which is COMMON with HE toploaders due to goverment water restrictions. DO NOT BUY THIS MACHINE!!! Collasal waste of money, time and stress!!!


This thing is awesome.  I live alone in a small apartment without washer/dryer hookups.  I used to spend a crapton of money at the laundromat every week to clean my clothes.  I bought this together with the Pan30 washer http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00G9EHGDK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and they go perfectly together.  The dryer fits pretty much the exact same amount of clothes as the washer does.  It does sometimes take a long while to get your clothes completely dry, especially with stuff like towels or heavier clothing, but it gets the job done.  You may want to invest in an iron if you don't already have one, as it does tend to wrinkle shirts quite a bit, and there's no lint trap so you'll need to find some other way of removing lint.  Despite any flaws it may have, just being able to do my own laundry in my own home is priceless.  Both the washer and dryer fit perfectly into the bottom of my hallway closet.


GE really does suck. We bought a GE washer and dryer in January 2015. The washer broke down in October, after only 9 months. The warranty ran out yesterday. They came out yesterday and "fixed" the piece of s*** for the THIRD time since October. They refuse to replace the piece of junk. I've already purchased a Speed Queen washer and dryer to replace this GE garbage because I can't be without a washer for months on end. Customer service has been useless and the idiots in the GE "tech" department refuse to listen to the repairmen they send out to service their garbage. They send out a repair man and have him call them to discuss what the issue is. Then when the repairman tells them it's been repaired THREE times and needs to be replaced they REFUSE to take his advice and simply replace the same parts on it again. The consumer is powerless to do anything about it. You can't win against a giant like GE. You can, however, tell EVERYONE you know to avoid GE products at all costs. I will NEVER buy another GE product. They don't give a s*** about the consumer and just run you in circles until the warranty runs out.


This machine was  purchased from HH Gregg to go in a 2nd floor laundry room. I explained it would be going on a second floor and the rep said this was a 2nd floor approved model!  So I bought it, with the pedastools for elevation.

 First, it shook my entire house to the point all light fixtures would shake during the spin cycle and popped dry wall screws everywhere.  I have three children and do alot of laundry.  I called HH GREGG who did NOTHING for me.  I called a whirlpool tech, the sent me to a second level of escalation.  The tech came out and told me that the pedastools negated the efficient balancing of the machine.(there was 150.00 out the door)  Then he told us it was in balance and that was all he could do.  Still shook the whole house.

Then, within the first 14 months, the seal broke and it leaked all over the place.  That was when a great service guy came out and told me to grease the seal every 60 days.  Sure enough, the shaking stopped.

Now, just over two years into the machine, the seal broke AGAIN!  This time destroying my kitchen ceiling.  It cost me 242.00 to repair it.

Whirlpool lost this lifetime customer!


Whynter is making some great products these days and the CUF-110B Upright Freezer is yet another addition to their excellent small appliance line. I use this in my bar area for whiskey ice cubes and chilled liquors and it is just the right size. I imagine in an office or home it would work well to add a bit more freezer space for smaller things, but you certainly won't fit a frozen turkey or something inside (nor are you meant to - this is an office type appliance and I imagine not many turkeys get roasted in the office). It is about 20 by 18 inches and sits snug up against the wall. I love Whynter's classy black style and the fact that I can flip the door around to be used in either direction is wonderful. The lock works great, though it took me a second to figure out, and it is great for keeping unwanted hands out of the liquor. It is also very quiet, which isn't super important for my purposes, but very nice in an office setting.


One month old and the element on the front bridge is not working. I have only used the element 3 times and never bridged. Calling customer service was a 42 minute call, even though they already had our address and information from the phone number and the women was especially obtuse. They want a proof of warranty, but we did not receive a receipt from the builder. Builder said show them settlement papers. We will see what happens.

If the element had not gone out I would give it 3 stars. It is hell to keep clean, even though I am detailing it on a daily basis. Water spots, streaks, smears and smudges galore. I had a small spill of turkey broth with miscellaneous water spots and it took 5 minutes to clean off. I know because I set the timer for my tea just before commencing the cleaning. I expected to have to clean up spills and stuff, I just did not expect to have to scrub so hard or so long. You cannot go over it with a wet sponge while the stovetop is hot, like you would an enamel stovetop, to make it easier so everything gets dried onto it before you can clean it.


. The person giving the tip about flipping the filter, to save on the filter life is quite correct. Thanks you.  I flip it a least twice a week, since the part on top drys out if you don't.  Adding a cap full of BestAir Bacteriostatic Algae & Order Treatment works great to make sure the filter does not mildew.  And forget about the guy that acted like this stuff was so poisonous that he would not have it around animals.  It is not different than bleach or antifreeze. Sure you should not let animals get in to it, but diluted ( a cap full in a gallon and half) cannot hurt anyone or anything,.  And yes you do not put your nose over top a bottle of beach to ammonia  either,  That can vapor lock your lungs. Same warning on the label.  So perfect safe if you treat it like bleach and ammonia, out of the reach of kids as many products should be.  So don't think that it going to be quiet and you would be real happy with this unit.


Never, ever order an appliance through an Amazon supplier. I have had nothing but horrific experiences with this. I have been in Amazon customer for over 15 years, and have ordered well over six figures worth of merchandise from it. The first time I ordered this unit, after it had been delayed for over a week, I contacted the supplier, which informed me at that point that the item was on back order. That did not keep them from having charged my credit card upon receiving my order. My second experience was even worse. I ordered the item, and it did arrive on time, but, as I was distracted with my kitchen remodel, I assumed that because it worked when plugged in it was OK. Only after the delivery man left, did I noticed it was bulgin on one side and dented on the other. It does not fit in the slot that we had built  for it. Unfortunately, as I was too trustingand signed off on the delivery, i have zero recourse except to pitch it into a dumpster and try again. Again: the lesson learned is: never, ever, ever order an appliance through Amazons associates.


When the dryer quit working I figured I would have to shell out hundreds (a thousand) for a new washer.  Did a Google search for "washer stops during wash cycle and will not spin and will not pump water out".  Read a couple of pages that suggested that it was likely this switch.  I opened the washer lid and used a screwdriver to press down the switch and noted that the lever was not functioning properly.  Watched on YouTube a video on how to take my dryer apart and how to replace the switch.  I was ready to order the switch from an appliance supplier for thirty some odd dollars, when I decided to see if it was available on Amazon.  Was I ever glad.  With my Prime membership I had the part in two days at a fraction of the price with free shipping.  Installation was a breeze following the instructions on YouTube.

My only misgiving: that I am not married and therefore there was no one there to impress when the washer came back to life.


A lot of the reviews on here are complaining about the fact that LG does not sell just the hub. Come on people this is a repair for a near thousand dollar washing machine for under 100 bucks. We were washing along and all of a sudden the machine started making a horrible sound similar to a coffee maker on steroids crossed with Frankenstein. No more spinning either. Upon a search of YouTube for lg washer repair I found out about this piece. I opened the back access panel and removed the 17 mm bolt and examined the rotor assembly and noted that the splines were in fact ground down due to the bolt loosening. I ordered this rotor from Amazon and selected overnight delivery (I refuse to go to a laundry mat). The next day (Saturday) FedEx showed up and within 5 minutes I am washing a load of clothes! (NOTE!!! Please be sure to have some thread locker to keep the bolt tight to avoid this miss-hap in the future!) Yes they could sell just the hub, they do not however..... This is a cheap fix even at 70 bucks for a great washing machine.

The Wonder Washer is stable when washing on top of the vanity.

Do not overload the washer with water and clothing. I usually just put four shirts every time and set them up for fifteen minutes. For socks, I just put a six pairs just so that they have enough room to tumble.

You have to place it on a FLAT surface & don't OVERLOAD the washer.

This will not replace your LG or Samsung washer. If you have some clothing you need tomorrow, then this will fit your need. It will not take one basket full of clothing.

Make sure to use High Efficient (HE) detergent. It is designed for washers that use low water for concentrated cleaning.


This product should be marketed under ferret products because it is the perfect thing for ferret owners to purchase. Ferrets are natural burrowers, my dad tells the story that back in the 20's his father used a ferret when hunting rabbits to chase rabbits out of their burrows.  I purchased 4 sections.  The sections come with connectors.  Two sections connected together is long enough to go from the top of the stairs to the bottom.  My two ferrets will climb up and down, chasing after each other and get tons of exercise.  They use a section to climb in and out of the bath tub, and another section in the tub for some rough house playing.  People are entertained as they watch what goes on inside the tubes as one ferret crawls through one end and one ferret crawls through the other end and they meet in the middle.  They have a face off and one is forced to back out.  This is way better than what you can get at the major pet stores for ferret exercise and fun.


For the last 4 years, I've purchased this GE MSWF filter from Amazon without any issues, they had always had the best price and the filter worked like it should. Well this last one I got was a total dud. Followed the directions...filled filter with water, and installed in the fridge and very poor to no water would flow out. Also, the pump and water lines would make loud noises and vibrate when trying to dispense water. I disconnected the water lines and tested them in a bucket..no problems with the water supply flow. Disgusted, I bought another filter from a local big box store (H*me Dep*t) and this filter worked a little bit better..still makes noise sometimes and most of the time the flow is much less than the original filter I was trying to replace.  I give Amazon 5 stars for their return policy - for which I returned my defective filter. I give GE ZERO stars for whatever they did to the design of this filter...it sucks! I am planning to replace my filter with a bypass plug the next time it needs to be changed. I also will never buy another GE appliance product.


Update: SS can hold magnets. However, it does easily scratch!
Dropped 1/2 star.

This is an awesome refrigerator/freezer combo.  After a minor re-model of the kitchen to accommodate the size, this is a great USEABLE addition to the kitchen.  I've only had it for a day and first impressions are SPOT ON!  Packing was great - to good as a matter of fact.  There was a tiny dent on the back (pics to follow) but since it is on the back, I really can't complain.  I would give 10 stars if it has a water dispenser!  I was very skeptical and read almost every review.  I haven't installed the trim kit yet...  more to follow on that!  I debated on the 48" ref/freezers, but went with this instead.

update: I've cleared out my garage side-by-side refrigerator and a deep freezer unit and these two units held everything!

Shipping was great!  Customer service (Cheetah Direct) was great too!  They delivered what they promised!  I contacted them before purchasing, and afterwards as well.  Amazing folks.  THANK YOU!


We've had the refrigerator for several months.  Tech guys have already been called out 3 times for the same issue....  ice continues to drip from the ice maker-tray right down into the water/ice dispenser causing a continuous puddle of water on the "catch" tray.
This problem does NOT go away even through twice they've changed the entire ice making mechanism.  It appears that the ice doesn't maintain its temperature properly in the upper refrigerator portion of the unit, causing it to stick together and constantly form a drip.  Besides this..... this beautiful frig makes enough ice for 2!  We are a family of 5.  At dinner time, we can never seem to get enough ice to fill our cups half way with ice (even if ice hasn't been used all day).  Ice compartment is too small.  FORGET having guests over..... I've been serving warm drinks after the 4th person!

Besides this, It's beautiful and specious.  I wish it would work for us....but these small negatives are truly outweighing the positive.  Thinking about getting a side by side and avoiding this french door dilemma.


Perfect fit! I was very hesitate to buy these since they only showed the top. After reading the reviews and even though the oven number kept popping up unexpectedly different...I decided to take the plunge because they looked identical to my original knobs and the price made sense to me. Seeing $35 _40 was a bit much and then it might not work, now  I am so glad that I did! I have been looking for replacement knobs for years to go back on my oven timer and clock and I finally found them. FINALLY FOUND THEM!  I did have to glue the one that went on the clock as someone else stated (one prong end had broken off years ago). A few drops of crazy glue and now what looked old is like new! I am going to order another spare kit Just in case!
Update: I added before and after photos. I have a GE electric range and this is the original # that I was searching for JBP26G0J23AD in case you have that kind of older model oven to know that they are compatible!


Overall appears to be a good product, didn't leak once hooked up as noted in some other reviews.  I liked the fact that they hoses are really light weight and very flexible compared to the rubber hoses i replaced, and the stainless hoses i was looking to get.  My HE Front Loading wash also fills quicker due to the larger interrior diameter.  The only thing i wasn't to impressed with is the actual fittings that hook up to the wall outlet and washer inlet, otherwise i would have given five stars.  They appear cheap and very thin metal (Kinda like a Beer Bottle Cap thickness/material) compared to the rubber hose fittings I had that were pretty stout; but the new hoses aren't leaking... I did find it a little hard to tell if they were tight enough or too tight due to this though.  Also be sure that you replace your hoses ever five years as directed... speaking from experience, it is no fun waking up to go to work finding that your lower floor has a foot of water from a washing machine hose that broke at midnight.  I also purchased the FloodStop to go along with these new hoses.


My dryer started squeeeeeeeaking a few weeks, and it was a high pitched squeak, so I assumed the bushings in the rollers need a bit of oil. I checked on a couple of websites for repair tricks, etc. and some folks commented that the rubber roller bushings cold be squeaky, others commented the tensioner was squeaky, and then I saw the whole kit was under $20.  If I'm taking my dryer apart to drop some oil into it, I'm dropping in all the parts.  So I bought this kit, and I figured I'd change out all the wear items.

Kit comes with 2 rubber rollers, tensioner roller and a belt.  I looked over a couple of youtube videos to see where the trick latches are located, and the rest was easy.  Once the sheet metal is off, top flipped over, lift dryer drum with belt, take out old rollers, put new ones in, with a few drops of turbine oil, new belt over drum, drum back in, sheet metal back on...good for another 25 years!


I have had this two months now.  I do laundry every week. For one person, it takes me less than an hour to wash all of my clothes and hang up to dry.  No, the "dryer" won't get your clothes completely dry.  It does not have a heating element.  It does spin the clothes to get most of the moisture out, so hanging them on a rack does not take long to dry.  I have not had issues with mine leaking.  I do find I splash water a little when I am transferring from the wash bin to spin bin.  My only wish list for this would to be to have it elevated a little and on wheels, as I move it over to my shower area to have access to a drain.  Otherwise, this beats going to the Laundromat and cheaper.  I bought this for my RV, as I have been staying in it for a travel assignment.
Recommendations:  buy a lingerie bag for more delicate items, as this can tear.  Do not over load with clothing.  For larger items-jeans/towels, do only one item at a time.  For smaller items: t-shirts/shorts, I can fit 4-5 items.  I do not recommend washing sheets or blankets.  Those items I still take to the Laundromat. I hope this helps.


So, this is what life comes down to when you are 50 years old:  reviewing dryer vent cleaners while sitting at your kitchen table waiting for American Idol.  This is not what I envisioned when I was 12, I can tell you that much.  You kids who think it won't happen to you?

It will.  Sorry to burst your bubble.

That said, the product works great.  Our dryer pretty much stopped working and we were thinking we needed a new one, which was seriously going to eat into my plastic surgery budget.  One last shot before a trip to the appliance store was this Gardus LintEater.  My husband, who is not the handy one of the family, had to do the work as I have a torn labrum.  (Which sounds dirtier than it is - that's part of your shoulder.)  He, the clumsiest man in the world, had absolutely no problem using this.  I warned him to read the directions first, and he actually listened and followed.  He hooked it up to the drill, and away he went.  He got a bunch of musty, wet lint that had probably been up inside the wall since 1977  - probably consisting of bell bottom material and macram.

Now our dryer actually dries clothes again, and I can continue to save for my facelift. Thank you Gardus.


I have this product for more than three years, so I think I perfectly qualify to review this product!
In general, it is a great products. I mainly bought this product to be able to style my hairs by myself without any assistant. My freeze hair looks so smooth and stylish. It leaves my hair smooth with a few volume (It does not make them straight like flat iron, maybe because I don't have a straight hair to begin with!)
It has three settings: low, high, and cool. The head of the styler can rotate in 2 directions, but it does not rotate in the cool mode. It also rotates faster in the high mode which makes sense. It has a cap that I use after I finish styling to prevent heat from damaging my other stuff in the drawer (I put styler in a drawer). The only cone is that you have to work with small pieces of hair one at a time to achieve a perfect result. Thats means you have to be more patient which I am not sometimes!
In general I am happy with my purchase and I never had any problem with this device for the past three years.


<input type="hidden" name="" value="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/B1BnU3AnrGS.mp4" class="video-url"><input type="hidden" name="" value="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/71Iu3%2B1ZNOS.png" class="video-slate-img-url"> this is an awesome hand washer. No lie it gets the job done. I use this on my delicates and my baby usually has blowouts. lol and soils his nice outfits and white onsies. So this washer cleans and washes extra well. Way better than a washer at the laundry mat. My only thing keeping me frm giving a 5 star is that the handle kind loosens as you push in and out to wash. I just pull it up and twist it back in to tighten. No big deal tho. I still love this product.


What a brilliant tool to have!  Cleaning my dryer vent is a breeze with this wonderful gizmo. Plus, it involves power tools!  Dang near the most fun you could have while cleaning!  Cleans thoroughly. (Note: I disconnected my dryer from the vent and did not use the enclosed plastic protector that keeps the brush from damaging the dryer.)  My vent has two turns or bends and the rods twist and bend easily.  When using all four rods, I held the drill "backwards," pointing towards me and let the rod pass behind me to keep it from whipping around and kinking.  Once I figured that out, it was truly a simple process to get my dryer vent cleaned in no time.  Insert brush into dryer vent, turn on drill, push into vent and remove from vent while using the drill, repeat, and that's it!  Oh, so easy. Now I am just waiting for the leaves to fall and plug up the downspouts....


Anyone who thinks they don't have a problem with lint should look at these pictures.  My house is only 10 years old and this is what came out of our vent.  That doesn't even include what was cleaned out from our dryer filter and what was in just the dryer unit.  This product is very easy to use.  I definitely suggest taping each junction to make sure they don't separate in the vent.  I broke my cleaning into 4 cleanings. Fist cleaning was with just the brush and the first extension.  After ensuring that section is clean I added the second and so forth until the brush came out clean.  Given the length of the brush with all four sections, I found it easier to have another set of hands guide the brush into the vent while the other set was operating the drill.
I noticed that when I turned the dryer back on there was some lint that was dislodged and blew out the outside vent opening.  Unfortunately in my case some lodged between the slats and is keeping the vent opening from fully closing.  I will be making a trip up my ladder once the ground dries a little so I can remove those pieces.  A little price to pay for a clean vent.


I cannot speak highly enough of the Dishwasher Alert!  I buy them 5 or 6 at a time because I give them to everybody, plus I want to make sure I have an extra one on hand in case my current dishwasher dies and has to be replaced.

The one on my dishwasher has been there for about 7 years.  It sticks in place perfectly, so you don't have to worry about it coming loose.  If you have more than one person in your house, and even if it is just you and you are starting to get forgetful, you will find this to be an invaluable little tool!  When you turn on the dishwasher, just slide it to 'clean' and when you put away the clean dishes slide it back to 'dirty'.  It becomes a habit, and that is all you have to do.

I just gave away my last spare so I'm here looking for several more to have in stock.  For the price it is more than a steal, and that's why I buy so many at a time because they are great to share with others.


I ordered this for my outdoor kitchen and for the most part I am pleased with the value.

Installation was a bit confusing because my unit had 2 motors and 2 6" vents.  I called and was told that they recommended creating a Y and use one vent through the roof.  I ended up combining  the 2 6" vents (I purchased metal pipe rather than use the coiled pipe supplied to trap less grease) into a 7" vent through the roof.

Worked great for the first week or so, but then LCD went nuts...  Called customer support and they were able to quickly confirm my purchase through Amazon and are sending a new LCD and Circuit board....  Will update the review upon replacing the parts but wanted to give kudos for the prompt easy customer service.  They even sent videos showing how to replace.

If it weren't for the initial failure this would be a 5 Star value.  It looks exactly like my neighbor's $1200 unit, different name.


The Maytag Bravos XL MCT washer is a very disappointing product. It was advertised as having as high capacity with large drum for extra large loads. It truly can hold a larger capacity; however it does not clean the clothes at all!  Even if only a few items are put in the washer, they still come out dirty.  For example, our toddler is potty training. I put her underwear in the washer and it still comes out smelling like urine.  My husband put a pair of pants in the washer with his other clothes and watched as the majority of the material on the pants were still dry even after the wash cycled for over 15 minutes.  We have had several occasions where repair people have come out (under warranty), but it ceases to fix the problem with the clothes coming out clean. One repair man explained that these washers do not wash well and we just need to cut our loads in half. We have done so and still the quality of cleanliness is unacceptable.  Also, I should note that the overall condition of our clothes has been affected. Our clothes are more faded, frayed, and dingy looking than they were before getting this washer. We are highly upset with the misleading advertisements that touted the quality and excellence of this washer! We wish we never invested.


Purchased this refrigerator from a local dealer in NW Indiana about 1-1/2 years ago.  I absolutely love the entire set-up.  I wanted a french door with a bottom freezer, and I was not particularly interested in water or ice dispensers.  Most up-scale models come with those features.  But, the beauty of this model is that the ice maker has a relatively small footprint in the upper left portion of the freezer, and the water dispenser is inside the refrigerator on the wall.  Neither item takes up a lot of space, as it does in several  other brands.  Going from a top freezer to a bottom one is more convenient for us, because we have the most used items in the fridge at eye-level.

The large drawer under the crisper drawers holds a ton of items.  I use it for lunch meat, cheese, packaged meat products, bread, buns & plenty of other items.

The obvious drawback:  it is a little tricky to reach/wipe out the bottom of the freezer, since you need to get down on the floor.


Really just a ditto of what other reviewer(s) said, fast delivery of item & fixed same problem.  I'm also tempted to order a spare to have around.  Easy to install & makes the repair as inexpensive as it can be.  Now if the TrueSTEAM didn't suck down so may kWh we'd be good to go:)

UPDATE:  Though this item fixed the problem back when I wrote this review, our TrueSTEAM has self-destructed (1/2016) like they all seem to do after 3 - 6 years.  Had 2 problems in the same month:
1) plastic reservoir itself started to seep / drip (not the seal, a temp stress / age crack at bottom)
2) the water inlet valve let H20 continually enter.  This caused extra hot water to slowly flow down its outlet tube.

So time to remove & toss this POS TrueSTEAM into the trash.  Installing an Emerson HSP2000 since it appears an easy DIY job & uses same 120V elec + H20 feed, is made of metal & has good reviews.  [UPDATE: See also my HSP2000 "Nice replacement for Honeywell TrueSteam self-destructing whole house humidifier." review]


I wonder if they have re-designed this washer since the bad reviews?  I was ready to send it back after the first week; but we're on a well and wanted the reduced water.  So, I only run towels, sheets, small rugs--anything bulky on 'bulky loads', and it never gets unbalanced.  I frequently hang clothes outside, so I use the 'casual' setting so that they are not so wrinkled.  My clothes seem to be getting cleaner as I work with the machine and carefully choose all the settings.  I'm using Seventh Generation soap and on many loads I set it for an extra rinse.

Lowe's told me I could switch to an agitator-mechanical washer- if I wanted to return the Cabrio; but I'm beginning to like it.  It would be good if it came with a short "Please read--this is a different way to wash' pamphlet.

If it eventually turns ugly; I'll comment again.  As of July 2011, though, I'm beginning to really like this washer.  I've never had anything but Whirlpool appliances; so maybe my mindset is that I should assume it's good, and I needed to learn how to use it.


Some people call me a clean freak -- but I'm really not. I share my house with 4 giant, crazy dogs and 2 furry cats [not to mention the hard-working husband and teen-age son], which I think disqualifies me for the germaphobe title! My Bissell vacuum is great at getting up the pet hair and other dirt & the see-through collection system is great for visibly showing you when it's time to empty the dirt and clean the gunked-up filters [for me ... about daily]!
But I didn't realize until after I bought my sweepter that some of the filters -- like the inner one pictured here -- are paper, not metal or plastic.  The instructions tell you to wash the filter [yes, including this paper filter!] and let it dry -- puhleeaze, that thing takes FOREVER and a week to dry.  What am I supposed to vacuum with the next day?!?
Hence -- the beauty of this product.  I don't wash the filters every day, but when I do, I always have a clean, dry one!  This filter doesn't look exactly like my old one, and it snaps in a little differently. I like the way the old one fits better.  But hey -- scoff if you will, a clean fresh filter makes my day.


This is a good little unit for the money if all you want to do is check the temperature and humidity in your room.  I recently put in a new heating system and wanted to see if all the rooms in the house were being heated equally. I purchased two of these, and compared them to a similar but more expensive unit I bought years ago at Radio Shack. All three units gave me the identical reading in each room, so I'd have to say they were consistent, and hopefully accurate. I've had them about a month now, and both are still providing readings without a problem. I have a feeling that these were made by the same company that made Radio Shack's as the case design is practically identical. However, the quality of the units are not identical which is probably why they are half the price. The case of these two units is of a much lighter plastic and the brightness of LCD readout panel is much darker than the Radio Shack unit that was twice the price. Nonetheless, as I said in my headline, it is a good basic unit for the money. If the two meters were made better AND had a button to light up the display for better readouts in dark rooms, I would have given it a higher rating.
