Kenmore HE5T Front Load Washer

I love this front loader washer!!!!

appreciate reliability, not very handy, picking up after pets, messy

This front load washer is fantastic. I think it cleans whites better than my last top loader. I also think this washer helps with saving water since it uses less and does a better job than top loaders. It also uses less detergent. I have a drawer under mine and it is great for storing detergent and softner sheets etc. — The only drawback that I can see is that you have to purchase "he" detergents. Although more companies are making detergents that you can use with these machines. —… read full review »

The Vitamix is wonderfull for making baby food, margaritas, shakes, salsa. soup. It comes with a seven year warranty. Several people I've spoken to who make their baby food have killed sooooo many blenders if you kill this one they fix it!!!!! Actually makes ice cream. You can sneak in vitamins and nobody will notice they have a great recipe book… read full review »

Glade Aerosol Sprays

Glade Aerosal Sprays --- The Apple Cinnamon 9 Ounce Spray Bottle

a cat owner, always interested in fresh smells, value conscious, impressed with this product

MAY

2008

Living in a home that is owned by cats, you really have to have something around that can brighten up the apartment. Odors are sure to follow them around, and I have a product I use as a go to in the pinch. Normally I have some of the plug-ins working in key locations, but there are times where you just want to get rid of a smell quickly and easily. So, in those instances I go with a Glade Aerosol Spray that I have in my kitchen and bathroom areas. It is an easy enough concept, and I have decided that it is worth the $1.99 that I pay for a can. — — The one that I have started… read full review »

The perfect flame is a wonderful grill. I have never had a better grill than this one. The flame never needs adjusting so it cook evenly on everything. Best grill out there. The surface is large enough to fit anything and everything that I want to grill. The appearance is beautiful. It looks great and cooks great… read full review »

Yankee Candle Deck Delights - Lavender & Wild Rosemary

Yankee Candle is famous for its wide assortment of indoor candles and fragrances. In addition to their famous jar candles, they also have products for your outdoor spaces. I purchased a few packs of Yankee Candle Deck Delights Lavender & Wild Rosemary Candles with Citronella. The box of 12 candles contains 10 lavender and rosemary tea lights and 2 marigold and geranium scents. At the time I purchased the candles, I also bought a dragon tea light holder to store and hold them. I put the candles out on the patio table and lit three of them at a time. The… read full review »

Harbor Breeze Bella Vista Ceiling Fan — Item # 96982, Model # BE44MWW5C We purchased this great-looking ceiling fan for only $49 at Lowe's. The white color goes well in my daughter's room and I really like the look of the alabaster glass that covers the lightbulbs. It's a classy look without the high class price. — My handy husband was able to install this in about 30 minutes. There are two pull switches, one for the light and the other for the fan. The switches hang low enough for the average adult to reach, and remain… read full review »

Chas Roberts Air

2008

Our 1 year old new build home has a Chas Roberts air conditioning unit. It has now stopped working for the second time. The tech discovered that the first tech made a mistake when fixing the initial problem. After waiting 4 days and taking off work for Chas Roberts to come and fix the problem, we were told that since it was now after 12 noon, it couldn't be fixed until the next day. We now had to take another day off to have their mistake fixed. I feel that they need to work harder to fix a mistake made by their company. It should not cost us time and money for their error. —… read full review »

Was very dissapointed with King bed. We could not take the barrier between the two chambers and returned. The return process was horrible. They kept convincing us to try the bed longer, when we finally arranced for a pick up, they cancelled on us. When they came the second time, they broke our bed frame. Select Comfort said that the broken bed frame is not their problem. Would not reccommed to anyone that likes to move around in their bed....if you like to cuddle, forget… read full review »

I have nothing against flowers and yellow is certainly one of my favorite colors for flowers but Dandelions are not pretty, nor do I want then adorning my yard. When I first bought my house they were all over the place and now 3 years later I finally have them almost licked. Being on a tight budget I needed something that worked but didn't cost an arm and a leg. While comparing the many products I found that Expert Gardener had the same properties as Scotts Turf Builder with Weed Control. Reading the label I also discovered that they both had the same address on the label. No where can I find… read full review »

Victor Live Catch Mouse Traps

Humane for mice, heart attack inducing for me. *shudder*

a pet owner, still looking for a better way, freaked out by mice dead OR alive, humane, terrified of mice, not a believer in killing animals

MAY

2008

Quick View: Anyone who knows me even a little bit knows that I am terrified of mice. Not just scared of but horrified, run like I am being chased by an axe murderer scared of them. Having said that, I don't like to kill them either. I mean, it really isn't their fault that I go into cardiac arrest when I think I hear or see one. My husband bought these traps knowing I won't use snap traps and knowing that our cat recently caught a mouse in our room. All I can say is there has to be a better way! — — About Victor Live Catch Mouse Traps — — Princess is my indoor cat… read full review »

This grill is great for about the first year. After that it turns into a completely useless hunk of rust. The burners have all rusted out on my grill and I'm lucky if I used it 20 times. I am hearing that customer support is lousy, I guess I'll find out soon enough. I just need to find my proof of purchase. Argh..... — —… read full review »

Pros: we like the smart dispense system, was quiet when new — Cons: Poor quality, very poor customer service, keep failing, guaranteed trouble. — We bough this unit 16 month ago. The key board failed twice and need replacement. It keep failing on the same problem (keypad), it is now out of warranty and GE is charging us for every repair. The customer service have been horrible to deal with. It took weeks to schedule each appointment and the Technician is far from being the sharp. — — The noise level was very good at first.
