DesertDaisy says "Merit 715E Not the very best but not bad either." about Merit 715E

DesertDaisy — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 00:51:55 GMT

This is a Merit 715E. It's about middle of the line in price and size and options. I didn't want a lot of options anyway so this was good for me. My husband and nephew put it together in about an hour and in the beginning it was whisper quiet. Now it clunks and squeaks a bit, but isn't awful. I feel like we got a good deal on it and it does what I need it to do, so it's really not a bad machine, I'm really pleased with it. I just wish I could get it whisper quiet again.

DesertDaisy says "Hate this comedy" about Groundhog Day

DesertDaisy — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 00:19:57 GMT

I was bored to tears. I was begging my husband to turn it to something else, but he liked it for some bizarre reason. I finally had to leave the room. Horrible and boring and mind numbing....

DesertDaisy says "Nonstop excitement" about Seven Deadly Wonders

DesertDaisy — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 00:18:02 GMT

Anything by Matthew Reilly is good, but this is the beginning of a serial story. It was excellent and now I'm reading the second which is The 6 Sacred Stones. The action never stops and the characters are widely different from each other. If you like action, you have to read Matthew Reilly....

DesertDaisy says "My daily vitamin" about Excedrin Extra Strength

DesertDaisy — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 00:14:24 GMT

I take one every morning. If I don't, I will definitely get a migraine. Has worked for 30 years for me when nothing else does....

DesertDaisy says "MMMMM, tasty" about Marie Callender's Lasagne

DesertDaisy — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 00:13:03 GMT

Get the lasagne that has the real ricotta cheese. Tastes like homemade. All I buy now. Used to buy Stouffer's, but this is by far better....

DesertDaisy says "Great!" about Chicago Cutlery Set of Knives

DesertDaisy — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 00:10:44 GMT

My husband had one Chicago Cutlery knife when we married 30 years ago. We still have it. Last year we bought a butcher block with a set of Chicago Cutlery knives in it and will never have to buy new knives again. Great great knives....

DesertDaisy says "Horrible" about Maytag Neptune Front Loading Washing Machine

DesertDaisy — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 00:08:37 GMT

Do not buy!!! We have had absolutely nothing but problems with this machine and Maytag is deaf to our problems. They simply could not care less. We thought when we bought this duo we would never have to buy another one again, but we were wrong. Hate this machine....

DesertDaisy says "The best" about Electrolux Epic Vacuum

DesertDaisy — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 23:59:48 GMT

Of course, everyone know Electrolux vacuum cleaners have always been the best. They are expensive, but well worth the money. My grandmother bought one when I was born and I was using it in college. I have owned a lot of vacuum cleaners, but will never use anything other than Electrolux from now on....

DesertDaisy says "Buy this and you will never have to buy another" about Calphalon Pots and Pans

DesertDaisy — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 23:55:19 GMT

I wish, wish, wish we had known about this product when we first got married. I started buying it piece by piece, which is extremely expensive. They really back up their product also. I had a 16 quart pot that I always made my special spaghetti sauce in. Finally the coating came off and it was just silver. I sent it back and they sent me a brand new one, no charge. It's all I buy now....

DesertDaisy says "Works really well" about Shout Laundry Spray

DesertDaisy — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 23:52:36 GMT

I have used Shout for years and never use anything else because it always takes care of the problem. I use it on absolutely every stain there is; blood, food, everything....

DesertDaisy says "Really like this place" about Red Robin - Mesa, AZ

DesertDaisy — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 23:50:21 GMT

Even though it's a boring chain (i know, I know), their food is always excellent. Have never had a problem with their food. Love their burgers, their salads, their pastas. Have never been disappointed and sure fills you up for the whole day....

DesertDaisy says "Like it better than I thought" about American Express - Credit Cards

DesertDaisy — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 23:48:00 GMT

I have always hated American Express because as a business owner you always get screwed. However, as a consumer I really like it. Whenever I call them they are very helpful. The only problem is it's not always accepted everywhere. I got ours thru Costco and get cash back once a year which is always nice....

DesertDaisy says "Love it so far" about Samsung - sght339 Cell Phone

DesertDaisy — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 23:45:03 GMT

I really like this phone, but then I have always liked Samsung and try to get them every time I get a new phone. I'm still trying to figure out how to get on the internet, but that's just me and probably not their fault. I'm a little phone challenged. I really like the size and the fact that it's a flip phone. Whenever my husband uses the phone he forgets to hang up and then people can hear him whatever he's doing. With a flip phone he can be sure he has hung up....

DesertDaisy says "Love it" about Hyundai Accent - 2002

DesertDaisy — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 23:41:15 GMT

We have had 3 Hyundai cars since 1996 and we absolutely love them. After the first Accent I told my husband that I absolutely will not consider any other make of car and we have bought 2 more since. The best car for the money....
