Once the car was 4 years old, things started going wrong. ---- the electric seat stopped working (warranty repair) ---- the A/C quit (whole new motor type part, big bucks for this one) --- the trim on the inside of the windows kept falling down trying to strangle me --- the radiator was in 5 times for a leak (mucho bucks for this one - they couldn't seem to fix it) ---- the automatic lights would turn themselves on overnight (wake to dead battery in the morning) they fixed it by removing the underhood light at a cost of $150, and of course it was way more expensive to order a new light fixture, the bulb worked fine) --- the trim where the back door swung up decided to not be attached anymore and flopped around. I finally gave up on it and traded it...

LOL This is a no fuss mower. It is light enough to easily get in the trunk to take it in for blade sharpening. Just plug it in and you are ready to mow. It does a great job with mulching, too! After years and years of gasoline mowers - and all the hassels associated with them (heavy, having to store and add gasoline, change the spark plug, etc), I am so glad to own this mower. ...

Technically the fridge does what it says it will. However, it has serious design flaws. We have water in the door, which most visitors can't figure out how to use. (you have to push UP with your glass on a non-visible button) Even when you know what you are supposed to do - it takes several tries to hit the button. The Ice Cube maker drives us batty. It is a drawer in the freezer. We figured no problem bending over to get our cubes, since you can easily reach in and pull the drawer out. In actuality, what happens is that when you pull the ice drawer out, the arm that controls cube making, sweeps all the top cubes out of the drawer and back behind the entire pull out freezer drawer. Well, my arm doesn't fit back behind the main drawer. So, we have been taking the vacuum hose (when the freezer no longer closes cause of all the cubes back there) and sucking up those cubes one by one!!!!!!! The shelves...

When I first had it installed (by the store), it was on a pedastal and walked all over the room (the floor wasn't totally level). We returned the bottom drawer part and they re-leveled it. No walking anymore! No noise - it is so quiet we often start it as we go to bed. (2nd floor laundry room with 2nd floor bedroom right next door) I could never do that with my old washer - it would keep us awake until it finished! I always find something else to put in the machine, as soon as I start it. There is no way to open it to add anything, once you have pushed the start button. :( I was told by the installer that loads that are too small (like a little load of delicates) should not be done, always wait for a full load. Then I read it in the owners manual that little loads should wait for a full load, too. I really don't like my underwear in with eveyone's jeans; but so far they seem to be doing OK. Overall, I love this machine and sure wish I had a more level...

I use the 15 minute rechargeable batteries and they seem to last longer in this camera than in other digitals that I have owned. This is my first camera with the video and I am loving that! The self timer is such a handy feature for getting everyone in a group shop (including the camera owner) LOL This camera has many different scene modes; which makes it very easy to get great shots everywhere. There are modes for Portrait, sports, action with children, parties, beach, snow, night and more. It's hard to take a bad picture with this camera. The only bad pics I have had is where I shook while taking the picture. But, it is so easy to trash the bad one and take it again! (very handy for...

Car handles really well. — — Radio is another matter altogether, very poor reception.  — — The seats are comfy on long trips.  I love all the nooks and cubbyholes to store things, including the double lift console lids.  I love the inside releases for the gas tank and the trunk. — — I keep banging my head on the trunk lid; but that is more to the type of car I had before this one (I think). ...
