Honeywell 360 degree Surround Fan Forced, HZ-0360

Fantastic Heater!
I needed to get a heater because where I live, my roommates keep the house kind of cold, for whatever reason. Anyhow, I purchased mine from Wal-mart because I was looking for something inexpensive to keep jack frost away at night. Well, this did it! I turned on the heater and it was super warm and amazing. I woke up the next morning and I was actually a little hot! I thought the roommates turned the central heat up but when I opened the door it was unbearably cold in the rest of the house. I would recommend this for anyone who needs to warm one semi-large room. This may not work for a large room like, say, the living room. It works for a bedroom just fine. One great feature to this heater is that if it falls the heater cuts off because it is not sitting upright, meaning that is diminishing the threats of fire. Purchase, you won't be sorry!

Does somewhat as expected
I bought my first one about 4 years ago, and it had always worked well. Sadly, this year I had to replace it. The thermostat no longer allowed it to run more than 5 minutes before shutting down.

It was nice to see what appears to be the same Heater, still available, with same features and an even more modern look. I bought it immediately.

However, new is not always better. This new model does not heat up as quick. It also does not get a mid sized room as toasty as the one I had before, tho it still consumes the same 1500 watts.

PROS:
Heats a small to medium area eventually.

Apparently a safe product.

CONS:
Disappointed it did not work as well as its earlier version.

Heat blowing out from it's 360 degree fan coverage should give results better than it does.

Bottom Line: A nice heater that could be better.

Could have burnt down my house!
I've had this space heater since the beginning of winter and have used it in the bathroom to warm it up before I shower and next to me while I'm on the computer. The last time I used it I noticed a burning smell and discovered to my dismay that the heater was melting in on itself. The plastic housing was too hot to touch and was warped. I immediately unplugged it and carefully carried it outside because of the noxious-smelling fumes emanating from it. When contacted, Honeywell stated that they'd be glad to replace our heater, if we paid for shipping and a "fee." In other words, buy another heater to replace the faulty one. Avoid Honeywell!

Mr. Coffee DW13 12-Cup Switch Coffeemaker, Black

Great coffee maker!
I'm very happy with my purchase of my Mr. Coffee DW13 12-cup Switch Coffeemaker. I'm surprised at the negative reviews, I haven't had ANY of the problems others have had. I did purchase a Mr. Coffee gold-tone coffee filter to use instead of paper filters. I'm not a big coffee drinker and my expectations were very low and simple. I was going to go for the 4-cup since I'm the only coffee drinker in the house but I found that it's very convenient to have a bigger capacity when company is around. It's easy to use and I've had no water leakage at all, from any part of it. I'm not bothered by the sound of it brewing, I have yet to own a coffee maker that doesn't "gurgle" while it's heating and dispensing the water. The coffee dispensing stops immediately when I remove the carafe and I have had no problems with the carafe being problematic to pour. The lid on top is large...I simply pull the machine forward and out from under my cabinets when I need to open and close the top. For...

not bad for $15
I bought this for $15 at "wally world" It makes coffee my old sunbeam lasted about 2 years using it about 5 times a day. So this is a cost to own of $7.50 per year. I like simple appliance and am unwilling to spend $100 for a coffee maker. Use a glass tray or cookie tray underneath the coffee maker and dont worry about the drips. I am not sure what people expect in an appliance that costs the price of 2 cans of coffee but for me its fine....

Defective Product
Thought I would warn anyone considering this model. I had one for about 4-5 months before it starting "leaking" from somewhere and leaving a puddle of water under the machine. I eventually replaced it with two more of the exact same model and each time the machine caused a puddle right out of the box. It DID make a decent tasting cup of coffee if you used the proper ratio of coffee to water. However, there is obviously this troublesome defect inherent in the product.
P.S. I recommend the similar looking Sunbeam model BVSB-TGX20(23) which for less money gives you a programmable timer/brewer and auto shut-off. Plus it actually works properly!

Frigidaire Freezer Door Bin 240351601

Perfect replacement
I ordered Frigidaire bin 240351601 in hopes that it would fit my kenmore fridge. The last digit of the part number was different than mine. I installed this bin on the freezer side and it is a perfect replacement.

not amazons fault
this is the biggest SCAM - these are nearly 20 buck for about 9 cents worth of plastic. Frigidare should be ashamed of itself. I think i may just hijack the patent an mld my own. This was the chaepest place to get these and they are over priced by at least 10 buck (i needed two since the chepo originals broke).

Not a shelf
It is not a shelf. It has no bottom. You can't tell from the ONE picture they provide. It does fit the bottom three shelves, but not the top one. I'll just save it if one of the other ones break. Meanwhile, I will order another one. At least it arrived in good condition and in a reasonable amount of time. I will order from them.

Hamilton Beach 7-Quart Slow Cooker

Great crock pot!
I've had good success in using this slow-cooker. The features I like:

*The glass lid makes it easy to see how the food is doing without letting the heat escape.

*The crock itself is a nice black color and is easy to keep in the fridge if you want to prepare ingredients the night before or keep leftovers in the same pot.

*The keep warm setting is great for serving food, especially at a party

*The outside is a nice looking brushed silver

I've used this pot when I'm away from home and haven't had any problems. I always follow a recipe's directions for the length of time to cook my meals, and I haven't had any problems with burning. I've had it for 5 years now and it is still going strong.

My only complaint is that the rubber ring used to keep the lid on when traveling broke after three uses, which was too bad, because it was a nice feature. However, it's not something I use very often, so I consider this a minor drawback.

Basic and perfect
I purchased this to replace a fancier and more expensive Rival slow cooker which was completely worthless, overpriced and extremely poorly made.

This Hamilton Beach cooker is a perfect example of "less is more". Not a whole lot of bells and whistles, but unless you need much more than "high, low and keep warm", this is the perfect cooker for you.

Reliable heat, great 7 qt. capacity, attractive brushed (no fingerprints) exterior, and really nice "keep warm" feature is nice for buffet parties without drying out or overcooking the meal.

Awesome
This is my first slow cooker - i couldn't decide on the size since i live alone and wasnt sure if the 7qt would be too big. It is perfect i like to cook a lot of stuff and freeze food for later. It works great, looks greats and washes easily. I can believe how easy it is to cook with this - would definately recommend this to anyone looking to save time in the kitchen but not sacrafice the quality of home cooked foods.

Secura 4.2L/17-Cup 1700-Watt Stainless-Steel Triple-Basket Electric Deep Fryer, with Timer Free Extra Oil Filter

Deepfryer
It is one of the best for reasonable pricing! cook evenly with large basket and encluding 2 small basket for different use. You will not be disappointed when you use it. Thanks secura for good products.

A bargain with minimal design flaws.
The fryer is a great low price alternative to more expensive fryers out on the market. While it has one huge basket to cook a lot of food at once it also comes with two half size baskets for keeping separate foods that you are cooking, however do not think this actually keeps your food separate, because it does not, the two separate foods your are cooking drop down into the same oil. So you could not be cooking fish on one side, while cooking donuts on another side without causing your donuts to taste like fish.

The big flaws for me, is having to use the timer in order to have the fryer on and the fact that the cover is not on a hinge and is therefore not easy to move out of your way during use.

These two flaws are not at all deal breakers and I would recommend.

Update! Don't buy from this company!
Update 10/03/2013
We were so happy with this product until the product stopped working for us. We contacted the manufacturer before the warranty date, only to get the run around. We spoke with one lady who informed us that a replacement would be sent out to us. Well we spoke with many more Secura employees only to receive the run around. We did exactly what they asked us to do. Destroy the product take pictures of the destroyed product, send pictures, order number, address, email address, phone number. We did everything they asked us to do! Did we receive a replacement no! What we received was the run around. Every time we called, we were asked for the same information over and over, order number, address etc. Then we were told a manager would get back with us, did they no! We emailed the information several times! We will never purchase anything from this company again! This company took the joy out of deep frying, family time! Not the way to do business or treat your...

Hamilton BeachStay or Go Digital Thermal Coffeemaker

Simple to use, tastes good, full carafe gets grinds
I was given this as a gift. I found reviews for it (either the model in all black or brushed aluminum) favorable. Some people rated it negatively because they failed to read any directions and didn't press the "PRESS TO POUR" button on the carafe. Instead they unscrewed the top off and said it spilled when pouring. RTFM You always have to look to see if bad reveiws are due to the user's mistakes and lack of knowledge of the reviewer. They often are.

The two most negative things is...

1. When making a full pot I almost always get a lot of grinds. The problem is that the filter cup fills too quickly and the water level goes over the height of the paper filter. I've tried to find a taller filter, but they seem to all be the same size. Usually I either do a single mug (three 6 oz. cup servings) or the full carafe(10 servings). I can't recall if I've tried 6 or 8 servings to see if grinds are an issue there.

2. the plastic travel mugs retain water between...

great in RV
We bought this to keep in our Motorhome. We had a certain department that we wanted a coffee maker for since it has a slide down cover and only a certain size would fit and this one fit perfectly. We tested it first to be sure it worked and that we would know how to pour it like the other reviewer had said, read the instructions. It even stayed warm for about 7 hours, not hot but warm. I tested the mugs that came with it and I didn't have any dribbling, not to say we never will be when I tried it there weren't any. I give it a thumbs up as it is what we were looking for.

A shiny piece of JUNK

Pwr+ 9.6v Ni-mh 2100mah Battery for Makita 9000 9033 193890-9 192696-2 632007-4

Does the job
I've had my Makita 6093D for 17 years and have used it only intermittently for home repairs. One of my two ancient batteries would no longer take a charge and I ordered this item, which arrived by mail in only three days. It charged up fine, was an exact fit, and worked fine putting two-inch screws through 3/4 inch plywood into brittle, 60-year old joists without pilot drilling. The new battery is quite a bit lighter than the old one, 11 oz vs 16 oz, but it is labelled 1.3 amp hour just like the OEM battery and I have no cause to doubt the truth of this. One peculiarity - this made-in-China battery is labelled (incorrectly) as nickel metal hydride, while the box is labelled (corectly) nickel-cadmium and there is a piece of paper in the box apologizing for the mislabeling on the battery itself.

Good Buy!
I'm very satisfied and feel that I made a good choice. Product arrived very quickly and performed well. I was a little apprehensive about how good a substitute it would be for the OEM battery that cost about twice as much. But it was exactly as described and virtually identical to the original.

Seems to work well - somewhat better than original
The original batteries for this driver / drill were Ni-Cad. They were less powerful, and after some years wouldn't hold a charge. These more powerful Ni-mh replacements seem to work really well. I don't remember this drill spinning so fast. :) The price for these is pretty good too. It remains to be seen how well they will work for a heavy job, and over time - so far, so good. The original charger seems to like these just fine. It does take longer to charge, which it should as these hold more energy.
