margiems78 says "We love our Garmin Nuvi 250w and don't go anywhere without it!" about Garmin - Nuvi 250W

We love our Garmin! We don't travel long-distances often, but when we do we make sure we have it with us. But this GPS is great for just driving around town which we use it for a lot since both of us visit client sites for work often.

The wide screen and spoken street names are our favorite features. The directions are clear, concise and give plenty of notice of upcoming turns, etc - all of which allow us to focus on the road and traffic around us rather than squinting at a little screen trying to figure out where we should be going.

It also has a great feature allowing us to find nearby gas stations (can even search by name if you have a preference), ATM's, stores, etc and set them as a way-point so we don't lose our original destination. This has been very helpful since I must admit, my bladder is a little small and quickly finding a gas station or other place to stop is very helpful!

Updating the installed maps is easy. Just log onto the Garmin website, plug in your Nuvi...

margiems78 says "The Whirlpool Duet Dryer is a great value and does a great job!" about Whirlpool Duet Dryer

There are a lot of large-capacity energy-efficient dryers out there now-a-days, but this Whirlpool Duet dryer is one of the best around.

The huge capacity fast drying time of this dryer allows me to easily keep pace with the washer. No more waiting for the dryer to finish before I can transfer loads! Also, this dryer has a sensor system which automatically sets your drying times and prevents wasting energy by running it longer than necessary. There are 8 different cycles and 5 different temperature settings so you are always sure to get an energy-efficient dry cycle.

The wrinkle shield setting has been a god-send! It provides intermittent tumbling to keep all my permanent press items from wrinkling, which is wonderful for when I need a little extra time before running down to the dryer to pull everything out. The cycle-over buzzer is also very helpful and can be set for a loud or quiet setting making it perfect for the basement or main living levels of your home. ...

I like that my policy info is available to me 24 hours a day online and I can make changes at anytime to it via the website. I also like that it will give me an updated quote almost right away for changes. The only problem I have ever had is getting them to send the coverage letter to my lein holder whenever my policy renewed. My previous insurance company would just send one automatically at every 6 month renewal, here I had to call and ask each time....
