The generic filter is not similar to the original Amana filter and cannot be installed. There were no instructions included so any alternative installation methods could not be attempted. The configuration of the top of the filter is not similar to the original Amana filter.
I have an Amana refrigerator. Have been buying the Amana brand filters for 10 years. Decided to give the Water Sentinel brand a try. They simply don't fit. I'm incredibly disappointed because the box has the replacement model number (WF401) right on it. No go.
The design of the product was not the same as the one it was to replace that I have received before. The one received would not fit into the receiving ring on the refrigerator as it was too large. I had to pay return postage for a product that was not compatible and I feel that the company should had offered free postage for a product that was not the same specifications.
These filters are a recent answer to the expense of replacement filters, and they are NOT the answer. My Kenmore takes filter #46-9014, a number clearly marked on the package of the Water Sentinel. And it does not fit. I trued screwing it in for 15 minutes, finally got what I thought was the "sweet spot", and then screwed it in. Upon trying to get water out of the fridge, water sprayed everywhere and did not come out of the spigot. Bad product.
I purchase these to try because I was tired of paying $50.0 for (1) Amana name brand filter. I bought two of these for less than $30.00. It fit fine and the water tastes as good as the Amana brand filter.
REPAIR PART FOR FRIGIDAIRE, ELECTROLUX, KENMORE AND MORE
PART MEETS ALL OEM QUALITY STANDARDS MANUFACTURED BY A THIRD PARTY
I recommend this product to anyone having problems with their refrigerator compartment not cooling as it should. The original defrost timer seemed to have failed on me because there was ice accumulation in the vents running from the freezer compartment to the refrigerator blocking air flow. Replaced the defrost timer and everything has been working properly for well over a month now. On top of that, delivery was prompt and I am very satisfied with this product and the seller.
E. J. Tastad's review of this product is accurate and appropriate, but I would like to add some additional information. I bought this GE Profile microwave oven in March of 2006 on the recommendation of Consumer Reports. In September 2009 I am sorry to report that I had to throw it out because it wasn't worth repairing. Consumer Reports gave this GE model their top rating for large microwave ovens. It replaced an old Amana RadarRange that I had used for about 25 years before it burst into flames. The Amana had also received Consumer Reports top rating back then. If I recall, my Amana sold for about twice as much money (in 1981 dollars) as this GE costs in 2006 dollars.
Since this microwave oven is more powerful, faster and consumes more electricity than small models, you may need to have a dedicated 20 ampere outlet available for its use. Compared with my old Amana, the GE has a much more uniform distribution of heat when cooking or reheating, probably because the food is rotated on a turntable. As E. J. Tastad found, the defrost cycle is easy to use, gives good distribution of heat and the front panel controls are fairly intuitive. The stainless steel cabinet is attractive and easy to clean.
Unlike my old Amana, this oven cannot multi-task. For example, if you're running the built-in clock timer, you cannot cook or reheat something on a different schedule using different functions. You must stop the clock timer to begin a cook cycle and vice versa. You also cannot program several sequences of automatic operations as my old Amana could accommodate, nor can you program it to start at a later time.
This microwave oven was not as reliable and did not last nearly as long as my old Amana did. The magnetron tube in my GE Profile microwave oven failed after two years of use. It's replacement was covered by the five-year GE warranty on the tube, but the warranty didn't cover the $85 in labor charges, which would have been even more if I had received the service on-site instead of taking the appliance to the appliance repair depot. After 3 1/2 years of use, (September 2009) the main circuit board self-destructed. It cost me $44 at the nearest GE repair facility to learn that it would cost me more than another $200 to replace the microwave oven's circuit board.
Since other brands of similar-sized and power microwave ovens cost less than the repairs, I have discarded this microwave oven after 3 1/2 years and after spending $129 in diagnostic and repair charges in addition to the purchase price. Given this experience, I now be hard-pressed to recommend this appliance considering its cost-of-ownership and short life. This appliance should have lasted much longer. It did not get heavy use and was never misused or abused.
When I contacted GE about my failed microwave oven, they promised to make things right, asked for the model and serial number and requested that I cut off the appliance's power cord and plug and send it to them. They then sent me a $100 rebate check that could be applied ONLY to another GE appliance purchase. The check expired before I found another GE appliance that I wanted to own.
I bought a replacement, which was a Panasonic model NN-SD978S microwave oven for less than $200 from Sam's Club. It is just as large, cooks faster and has proven to be far more reliable. After four years, it's still going strong without need for repairs.
Pros:
Large
Fast and Even Heating
Great Defrost
Not too loud
Cons:
Sensor reheat is only good for soups and other substance that it is okay to heat to boiling (don't trust it with Pizza, or other foods like that).
Bottom Line: This is an excellent large microwave for countertop use. The inverter defrost works almost perfectly every time, never cooking my food more than it should, but the reheat is a gimmick.
This is a large countertop microwave, at about 2.2 cubic foot. Coming from an over-the-range microwave this is a huge improvement in size. The microwave heats uniformly and fast (it is 1200 watts). The sensor reheat should only be used on foods it is safe to boil, otherwise it overcooks about everything else. It also works best when you lightly cover the food, as sometimes uncovered food triggers it to turn off too early. Lightly covered is critical, as the sensor works off water vapor temperature being released from the product. If the water vapor cant leave the container it could become superheated. Sensor cook should also only be used under supervision (you should be in the same room).
I have had the microwave for about 6 months now with no issue. It is no louder than other microwaves I have used, and the controls are intuitive and easy to use. You do not have to press a cook button or anything to start your timed cooking. My favorite feature is the inverter defrost. Remember you enter the weight in pounds, so for an 8 oz pack of bacon you would enter "5" and "start" for 1/2 of a pound. If you had a 1.5 pound package of meat, you would enter "15" and "start" for 1.5 pounds. The display shows the weight correctly. Not much else to say about the product, it is a microwave after all.
Update: To improve "sensor reheat" performance, use a lid over the food with a vent hole. I use a paper plate with a small hole (finger tip size) punched in it. This will make sure the reheat stays running long enough, but still gets some water vapor to judge the food temperature by so it doesn't over cook.
Update (6/26/2010): I have been using the microwave 2 years now. It has been no issue and still works perfectly. I use the sensor reheat almost all the time for soups and casseroles, and use the inverter defrost for my frozen goods. I also use the "popcorn" button to heat microwave popcorn bags. Everything has been working great!
Update (7/26/2011): Still going strong. I use the inverter regularly for defrost, or lowering the power level to cook something slower. It has worked well for me, and I think problems might be from shipping, quality control, or some other factor.
Update (3/21/2013): Still going strong, but maybe a bit noisier now. No issue with inverter function or anything.
I am very disappointed at the poor reliability of this unit. Ours is less than a year old and has failed--now, when attempting to cook, the unit shuts off before the end of the programmed time. Even though the light comes on and the turntable turns, the unit does not heat food. Like others, I purchased this unit based on the recommendation in Consumer Reports; this recommendation didn't pan out. I tried to schedule warranty service and GE is making us wait a week to schedule and their frustrating telephone system does not provide information on where I can take it for service for faster turnaround (and didn't put me in touch with a live representative).
When the microwave oven worked, it worked fine. We replaced a Sharp unit with this one; though this unit has the advantage of a larger capacity, its controls are less intuitive.
Based on poor reliability and poor service, we're certainly not going to buy another GE microwave. We've had good success with GE refrigerators in the past; this is very disappointing. A quick search on the web now reveals that GE microwave ovens are not reliable--many others appear to have similar problems with the magnetrons.
Perhaps this is one reason why GE is looking to sell its appliance business...
I purchased this microwave in December 2006. On September 9, 2009 it totally went out. My problem seems to be the same as others are describing in these reviews a problem with the inverter technology or "inverter board." It has poor reliability and a high failure rate. The inverter technology is great while it lasts, but the oven goes out after a couple of years. Since it is past the 1-year warranty, it is my tough luck. I called GE Customer Service to get them to recommend an authorized repair facility in my town. The representative was unbelievably rude claiming that my only option was for them to send one of their technicians to my house. That was not an acceptable solution because: 1) It was way too expensive for a home visit, and 2) I could not take a day off work (and lose a day's pay) to be there. It would be less expensive to just purchase another microwave.
Needless to say, after this experience, I will never purchase another GE microwave or any other GE product based on how rude the customer service representative was to me. I thought GE was supposed to be a quality brand? My previous (much less expensive) microwave lasted 15 years and it wasn't even supposed to be a quality brand (a Sharp). I strongly advise against purchasing this microwave. When you pay that much for an appliance, it should last more than two years. It seems GE is engaging in a very unethical business practice. So many people are experiencing the same problem I did. GE has to know these ovens go out after a couple of years. Then they try to suck you into giving them more money to repair or replace them and they try to manipulate you into those expensive home service calls. I think we should all boycott GE.
Recently remodeled my kitchen and picked this unit based mostly on looks. I use a microwave mostly for warming up a cup of coffee or the occasional pizza slice (very light use). After owning it for just 45 days, it started smoking and then just cut off it's power while reheating some pasta. Fortunately I was able to return this piece of junk and get a refund. After doing a quick search on the web, I've heard of this exact same problem happening to other unhappy GE customers. One person claimed it started a fire. I have don't know if this is possible, but my GE microwave produced quite a bit of smoke before it turned itself off.
Bought this unit back last October and from the beginning have had nothing but issues with it. I have had it serviced 4 times in the last year with now that it is out of warranty by just three weeks and still not working whirlpool has pretty much told me tough you have to pay to have it fixed if we send someone out now.
This saddens me since they claim that there are no recalls on this unit and they haven't had complaints like mine but yet check any of their major retailers on this unit(lowe's, sears) and they are screaming the same problem i am having with not just this unit model but several like it. They have knowledge of the issues with this unit and should not still be selling it to consumers it is unethical. I just have to chalk it up to a lesson learned I suppose.
The main problem with this refrigerator was condensation build up on the magnetic strip of the freezer door. After reading the other reviews I see I'm not alone with this problem. For some reason condensation builds up and water leaks down the middle of the outside of the refrigerator. I'm not sure but that could be the cause of the condensation. When spending this much money on a refrigerator you would think that it would work right.
When whirlpool service the unit they merely replaced the filter tub heater kit which made it work a little. My unit has not made a piece of ice in over a month now with it just being a little over a year old...stay away from this unit and this company if you want quality or to be treated like a important customer cause you will not get either.
Please read reviews on this unit at their retailers website. Lowe's to be exact.
Keep in mind when looking at refrigerators that Whirlpool owns Whirlpool, KitchenAid, and Maytag.
Only advice I would give to anyone thinking of buying this Whirlpool refrigerator is if you buy it you better buy an extended warranty with it
A lot of people don't know why their icemaker doesn't work or stopped working. I figured it out I think -the new design allows the water line to the icemaker to freeze up.
Various brands (we have this Whirlpool, but the Samsungs are the same for example) switched to an icemaker-in-the-door design to free up more freezer shelf space and claim a bigger total cubic feet.
Then they sold it to us, not ready for prime time.
The result reminds me of the Boeing 787 rolling out with the battery/charger operation not tested enough (today the whole fleet is grounded).
But the FAA won't rescue you and me.
After a manual defrost the icemaker started working. I noticed that it froze *AFTER* the bin got full. Easy to figure out that when the water was standing in the line for days, it could freeze.
I reluctantly decided to raise the freezer from -4F to +4F, and am hoping this 8 degrees warmer will do the trick.
But if it doesn't, Whirlpool is going to get tested for their service.
First the ice overflowed, then there was no ice, then overflowed, then no ice. Finally they replace the entire icemakeing unit and it worked!... for six months. Now out of warranty guys will be out again tomorrow and I'm sure it will cost me. I'll get a new fridge before I pay for repairs.
I bought this fridge almost 4 months ago and I have had no issues with it what so ever, other than not being able to fill it up! It's soo roomy. I read reviews that there were issues with the icemaker; however, mine has worked like a charm. I love the glass shelves!
So far we are happy with our purchase, very roomy inside. The only thing is that plastic inside isn't as durable on the doors. Ice maker is a little too loud when there is no ice in the bin, but after few fills we don't hear it at all. We are happy with our purchase and would recomend it to a friend.
It's a great product, problem solved, everything is fine now frozen, also excellent seller. I just had to replace it following the instructions in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PI1blsY-Pc
This is not a genuine replacement but it did drop right in and it's been working fine thus far. The "blue" rubber boot shown in the picture is actually a beige color. The photo is also deceptive since it shows the genuine part when it's not. Again, it's working fine thus far, so I'm satisfied but I did feel a bit slighted.
everything promised was delivered. My fridge wasnt working properly. Ordered this part express mail.It arrived when promised and now my fridge is humming along nicely.
The item seems to be ok, however it is not a genuine part WR60X10074, rather it is a replacement. Cannot comment on the quality, as we did not install it, since blue piece of plastic needed for the installation was missing (it is shown on the picture though), so had to return it. Contacted the seller about it and they were very responsive.
First the love.. if you've been looking for a counter depth because you don't have much room in your kitchen then this, at the time of writing, is pretty much the only option. All of the other fridges made up for the depth with crazy width. The prices are also double for counter depth. This one is not. I live alone, so this is plenty of space for me. The platinum is also the best thing to ever happen. It looks like brushed nickel, which I will take over shiny stainless any day. Stainless is also the worst when it comes to showing fingerprints. I've had this fridge for three months now and open it with smudgy hands and have yet to even clean the front of this thing. You can't put finger prints on it.
The not-so-much-love.
The Handles.. so far, really so good. But alot of people have complained they fall off. The freezer door handle popped off the first time I used it but now I make sure to open with a specific motion and it's okay. We'll see after a year.
The plug is a straight plug and you need to leave a few inches in the back making this not exactly counter depth anymore. Maybe this is the case with all other fridges anyway, and while it's not counter depth, maybe it's still a few inches better than the others.
The adjustable shelves are not so adjustable. They give you barely an inch of discretion. You can put a SMALL Brita pitcher or a 2L bottle at the bottom of the door at an angle but you will not be able to put them in the regular shelves unless you remove one, decreasing your storage capacity. this was a major annoyance for a week and then I just got used to it.
The scary.
This fridge makes about six different kinds of noises. It's not nois-Y, but it has a different noise for kicking in, for when you've closed the fridge door, when you've closed the freezer door and then a random.. i don't know what. So far it works perfectly but I am constantly in fear that one of these noises should not be and that it's going to break. The scariest sounds like the edge of a fan hitting something plastic for a split second and then it stops. It was sudden and startling when I first got it but am now getting used to it.
So, that's the scoop. I want to love it unconditionally but only time will tell. It was the ONLY option for my kitchen when factoring in depth, width, my budget and the color.
Power cord issue:
The installation instruction taped on the unit shows a flat wall plug (90 degrees, with cord hanging down) but it does NOT come with this type of plug. Instead you get a straight power plug adding to the depth of the unit. The diagram is misleading to the plug you receive.
Also in the manual on page 4 under the title "Safety Information" it states: "Connect the power plug in the proper position with the cord hanging down. If you connect the power plug upside down, the wire can get cut off and cause a fire or electric shock." The manual is misleading to the plug you receive.
I contacted Samsung and this is what they said:
"We have cross checked the refrigerator model and found that it does come with the straight power plug.
However, we would like to inform you that the recommended clearance behind the refrigerator is 2 inches."
I would like to put only 2 inches but it is not possible with the straight power plug.
I contacted Samsung again and they said there was nothing they can do. They said they switched manufactures and this may of been a change. Samsung gave me their parts department (3rd party), however they do not sell a flat power plug for this unit.
I also posted a similar comment on the Samsung website, but they choose not to publish it, wonder why?
Buyer beware: If your buying this for space saving then reconsider. It came with a straight plug as opposed to a flat wall plug (90 degrees with cord hanging down) so it makes the unit sticks out about 3" as opposed to 2". Yes, it's only an inch but every inch matters.
We bought this fridge only to discover that it makes REALLY LOUD buzzing sounds on a regular basis. The sound is so loud it sounds like a fire alarm we can hear it throughout the entire house and wakes the baby up! It is tremendously annoying and makes us doubt Samsung technology. I do not recommend this product.
I bought this SAMSUNG RF266ABRS fridge because it was recommended by Consumer Reports in August 2009. This fridge and other SAMSUNG fridges should be taken off the recommended list because there is an inherent design defect that causes ice buildup on the evaporator coils.
First there is a rattling noise as the fan hits the ice buildup.
Then the noise stops when the ice completely blocks the fan but then there is no more cooling happening.
There is even a class action lawsuit against SAMSUNG fridges:
Please look into this Samsung ice buildup problem. The Samsung fridges should definitively not be on the recommended list but put on the "do not buy" list. The ice buildup issue occurs about 1 year after purchase. SAMSUNG is not acknowledging the problem and does not help its customers.
Letter to SAMSUNG:
I am deeply unsatisfied on how SAMSUNG handled the warranty policy with my SAMSUNG Fridge French Door Model RF266ABRS. This fridge was defective starting Year 1 and was not repaired appropriately the 1st time. All was done on the 1st service visit was to defrost the evaporator not fixing the problem itself.
Of course, the problem reoccurred 1 year later and every year after that. Since the technician explained the problem, how to solve it and SAMSUNG customer service gave me a hard time because it was a few days over the 1 year purchase date, I dealt with it personally by unplugging the unit and let it sit unplug for 24 hours. Not a satisfactory resolution, just a quick workaround, until I got fed up with losing food and asked for SAMSUNG to resolve this problem once and for all.
First this problem should have been resolved the 1st visit. Secondly I learned recently from numerous complaints and videos on the web that this is a defective design in SAMSUNG fridges that causes the ice buildup on the evaporator.
Here is a video showing the defrost sensor modification kit to fix evaporator ice buildup. This is for the SAMSUNG RSH1 fridge but it is the same modification that was done on my fridge by the repair technician who came to my house:
Many SAMSUNG fridges have the same cooling design thus sharing the same ice buildup issue.
I was charged $104.68 to fix SAMSUNG own defective design! This is outrageous and no decent company would shift the cost from itself to their customers . It shows utter disrespect for its own customers, not counting the monetary damage. Sir, should I remind you that your customers are your most important assets and should be your priority number one!
SAMSUNG should have done everything in its power to help its loyal customers by fixing its defective fridges FREE OF CHARGE.
The technician explained that he had to move the defrost sensor away from the evaporator in order to let the defrost cycle run longer and completely defrost the evaporator from any ice buildup. He also put a wider drain clip. The older clip was too small. It would get iced up and not let water drain away from the evaporator. There is also a new metal clip that attaches to the heating element and goes inside the drain clip to heat any ice there if needed so the drain cannot get clogged. In addition, a new seal kit put on the market by SAMSUNG 3 months ago was used to seal the evaporator compartment to prevent moisture to get in and improve circulation airflow provided by the fan.
I bought this refrigerator in January from a well known appliance company (S...rs). I say this because I buy tons of stuff through Amazon, but in the following tale I want to make clear that the problem was not inept installation on my part. The shiny new refrigerator was delivered and installed. That evening, I bought $374 in perishable groceries; plus I transferred my child's $1300 in drugs into the refrigerator. Next morning I realized the refrigerator wasn't cooling. So I called Samsung and worked through their troubleshooting process. Samsung agreed the refrigerator didn't work and directed me to call the retailer, whose repairman inspected the unit and diagnosed the problem: Shipped without coolant. Can you believe it? Was the coolant-installer absent from work that day? It gets better. The appliance company exchanged the refrigerator two days later, but of course the food and drugs were spoiled. Now Samsung is limiting the food cost replacement to $200. And, get this, the reimbursement process has now been in the works for 4 months. The latest hitch: Samsung says, gee, the repair ticket (which contains the repairman's diagnosis of "no coolant") is not enough, we need more proof that the refrigerator was exchanged or repaired. Alas, the appliance company doesn't issue receipts for those kinds of replacements. I have now spent probably 4 hours talking to 6 different Samsung "Executive Customer Relations" CSRs. That latest said he thinks he can process the claim with what I have submitted. We'll see. Summary: if nothing goes wrong, swell, but if it does, Samsung's "Executive Customer Relations" may leave you hanging.
My crisper drawer broke to pieces after 3 1/2 years. I ordered a replacement and it looks to be the same flimsy plastic. I hate to only give this seller two stars because the seller is in no way at fault. The seller gets five stars the product only two.
This is a replacement for a cripser drawer that the rails broke off of. It fits fine and looks almost exactly the same as the original except for it is missing the white strip across the front-no big to deal to me.
This crisper pan fits perfectly in my Whirlpool refrigerator. After years of a broken crisper drawer, I actually have one that works like a drawer again. If no one decides to use it as stairs again, I think it just might last.
The Replacement Filter fits many Whirlpool, KitchenAid and Kenmore refrigerators that use a water filter.
Retains the flouride in drinking water. Filters out chlorine, turbidity, sediment, dirt, and rust
The filter on our Sears/Kenmore fridge wore out after almost 4 years . so I ordered this replacement. It was cheaper than E-bay or from Sears parts online.
I got this refrigerator at Home Depot for $119, and it works just great. It recommends a cooling temperature setting of 4 out of of 6 max for most cooling temperatures. At this setting, it gives a temperature equivalent to any regular size refrigerator. It chills my milk and Heineken to cold on "4". It won't recommend trying to freeze unfrozen foods in the freeze compartment, but you can put pre-frozen foods it it, like from the supermarket. The only other thing is that given it's light weight, the door can be a little "front heavy" and will tilt the unit forward if pressure is pushed downward a little bit too much on the door when it is fully opened. Otherwise, this refrigerator still gets 5 stars from my review....given that the unit is light weight to begin with (Net weight 38 pounds) Personally, I think it is a great product for $119. 1 year warranty on parts, 5 years on the compressor (Parts only) at this writing. This little bad boy delivers at 2.4 CU and operates quiet too.
The freezer was the only part of the refrigerator that worked. We did talk with the seller and we did get reimbursed without any issues.
11.0 cu. ft. (311 litres) "All Refrigerator" capacity
Automatic defrost; mechanical thermostat
Canstor door liner, integrated door shelves and egg compartment
Crystal Vegetable Crisper with Glass Cover
Tall bottle storage
The Danby is great and it almost the only frig on the planet this size.
We wanted to replace an old frig-freezer in our bar with a frig only (no freezer). The built-in space was just barely enough for the old machine and we wanted something a little smaller. Turns out that every other frig only in our town was either just as big as the old combo or sized for a college dorm room. Amazon's price was within a few dollars of all the other sellers on the net and I trusted them with good reason.
Overall, this product does the job: it is compact, with full glass shelves, great for extra refrigerator space, which is how we and others seem to use it. It doesn't cool as effectively as we would like; we see a big swing in temperatures with no change in contents. Most of the time the temperature is at the very top end of the desired refrigerator cooling range.
We have a garden and will be storage garden vegetables in here. We were looking for a second frig with a small footprint because it needed to go into the corner of our mud room area between the dining room and the garage. There aren't many on the market this size. I only found one other made by Summit and it was $250.00 more. The unit fit perfectly where I wanted it to go. What a great space saver. Inside has more than enough storage and compartments. The design is typical. I can keep 24 quart bottles of my favorite sparkling beverage on the top shelf and my wife puts all the redundant items like half and half, jarred veggies, and all those items you would like to not keep in the main frig that take up all that space. I won't know for sure on the performance of this until the warmer weather gets here. We didn't get it until the beginning of December. So far it has been fine.
We purchased this refrigerator for the purpose of storing drinks for an office meeting room. It works perfectly for the purpose. It's large enough to hold a number of types of soda's, water, etc. It runs quietly and fits in a small area. Perfect for our needs!
We bought this about 4 months ago and have not had a single problem with it. Not too big and not too small. The door compartments are nice for holding milk, the draws are nice and roomy and the shelves can hold more than you might expect.
Easy installation, no driver required, plug & play
Stylized as a mini fridge , 4-foot cable It looks cool on any desktop
Internal LED Light
Powered by USB cable with a switch to a USB port located on your PC prior, no batteries required
Dimension: 19.5*8.3*9.4CM
The cooler is great, it have 2 functions: keep cool and warm!
It was for a B-day present and it had been amazing, but the seller was the worst thing ever...
They "shipped" my product, but in some way, they didn't. Just to made the story short, after some mails, and a lot of waiting, yes, my cooler was deliver to me 1 MONTH after I ordered it!
I saved about $25.00 on this item because I purchased via Amazon versus an appliance store.
Product worked great and the solid block of ice in my freezer is no more!!!
I bought this item to replace a broken OEM defroster/thermostat for our refrigerator. Installation was a breeze but here we are...18 months since I bought the replacement unit and I am forced to buy another as the replacement unit burned up. It's a powerful light bulb tied to a thermostat so the bulb is bound to fail. I guess a five dollar replacement part is better than a $1200 fridge.
There are evidently two sizes of these just one number apart. The one I ordered turned out to be the 6" wide heaters and I needed the 9" wide heaters. So I am returning this one and ordering the right one. If the description had specified the width of the heaters I could have avoided the mistake. It was not mentioned that there are two sizes if these and they look alike in the picture. The description should warn people to measure their heaters before ordering. Now I get to schlep it to the post office and pay shipping again to return it.
Great for dryer vents, heating ducts, along side the refrigerator
Fits all vacuums accepting 1 1/4" inner diameter attachments
This thing is two piecesone end is the hard plastic end which attaches to the second end which is the flexible hose. The hard end has an inlet and that inlet is so small that it impedes substantial airflow to your vacuum. Moreover, even small objects cannot pass through this opening and it will clog up the inlet in no time.
This will cause your motors to overwork and fail prematurely. When you vacuum, it's like you're trying to vacuum with a sock stuffed in the hoses. I'm using that example so show how much less air will move through it. Moreover, you'll hear your motor scream. The inlet needs to be designed so that its opening is larger to prevent overly restrictive airflow.
While its not the most ergonomic device, the tool does allow you to get into areas a normal crevice tool will not. Great while it lasted. It is a 2 piece construction, consisting of a hard plastic vacuum hose connector and a flexible extension. Unfortunately, the hard plastic piece gets stressed when you bend the flexible portion. The end of the hard plastic connector that connects to the flexible extension broke off after less than 2 months of normal use.
The Item description says "Flexible Crevice tool for ALL vacuum hoses" not true it was too small to fit my vacuum. Come to find out it is a "1.25" I assume that is 1.25" diameter measurement. This item probably works fine but I will never know because it is not for "ALL" vacuums. Check your hose diameter before buying.
The only caution is to measure your current hose to see if this tool will fit as it is very small. It did not fit my Miele vacuum, but fit my Shop-Vac. It does work well. Because the crevice tool is a firm but flexible plastic, it does not collapse with suction as I read happens with other similar devices. I was able to maneuver it into the lint trap and suction out the lint. Sometimes I had to bend the crevice tool into sort of a J-shape near the end so it would reach awkward areas, and it would hold that shape long enough so I could clean an area. Since I don't anticipate using this more than every few months, the bother of bringing the Shop-Vac into the house and fussing with the dryer lint cleaning is acceptable. Every dryer has a different lint trap configuration, so there is probably no "one size fits all" when it comes to a dryer cleaning extension. This is not quite everything I would like it to be, but it is good enough to give it 4 stars. Just be sure to measure well before you order.
Does not fit Miele canister vacuum. However I was able to use it for what I needed.
Fits my Sear's bought Kenmore Fridge perfectly. This part was bought as a replacement for my fridge door bin that was cracked. Color and material was the same as the original part. Glad that I went with Amazon for the replacement part rather than Sears! Amazon saved me $20.00!! :)
Other than being surprised that the door bin was mas made out of clear plastic instead of white like the bin I was trying to replace, this new bin is perfect. Fair price and was exactly what I needed, very pleased.
I searched the internet for this cantilever tray that we had broken. It was going to cost upwards of $49. I found it on Amazon, ordered it and received it in no time. Best purchase ever. Exactly what I expected.
The first thing I did when we got our new refrigerator was to move one of my door shelves and not place it in correctly. I filled it and it crashed to the ceramic tile floor. Broken of course. This is the exact replacement part and I'm very happy with it.

It takes a lot to get me to take the time to write a review, but this deserves it. I generally have terrible luck, and avoid "too good to be true" moments. We really needed a fridge filter, though, as the fridge water tasted worse than the tap water. It had been a long time since we changed the filter.
I thought for sure I was going to find this was a typo or something, and end up with one filter, or the wrong kind. However, I got the box, and it had 3 filters, and they fit perfectly. Even including shipping (I payed for the 3-5 shipping, but I was pleasantly surprised to see it show up in 2!) I payed less than I would have had I bought a single filter from anywhere else I looked. My water is so much better. No more funky taste, and no funny gurgling sound when the ice maker runs. It fits, it works, and I didn't pay a fortune. I would definitely buy these again.
I use these in my fridge at work. Works in most Fridgedaire units. Usually located at the back of the top shelf of the fridge. Just unscrew the housing, pop out the old filer and pop in the new.
Works as good as the original. I hope it lasts as long as the brand name water filters. So far so good.
We do not drink our tap water! These filters work exceptionally well and are so much more affordable than anywhere else we have looked or purchased! Now, we really can replace them every six months, as recommended. Easy to install in fridge, and our water tastes great!
This is the largest refrigerator that my granddaughter's school allows in dorm rooms. It's in her room and is considered very nice. Lots of room and an ice freezer compartment too. It's quiet and well built. She likes it. There have been no problems with delivery or operation.
This items works well, has lots of space and a nice little freezer. It's quiet, nice to look at and only cut me once when I was trying to even out the feet. Be careful the bottom is sharp metal and will bite!
I chose four stars because the shelves and brackets on the door fall out too easily when the fridge is full. If you keep bottles on the door they will knock loose the door bracket when you open it. Otherwise, this fridge has more room than many in the same price range. I think this thing would be perfect for a dorm room, man cave, camper or cabin. The freezer is a little small, but this is only a 2.5 gallon fridge so it is not expected to have a larger freezer.
It was time to replace my icemaker filter again, so ordered this one on Amazon. The problem is that this filter is made ONLY for the push-in type connection for small plastic tubing. My filter connects to a to nylon tubing line that requires screw-in metal fittings. My last filter was adaptable to either connection type, where as this filter is not. In the product description it states "Includes quick connect fittings for installation on 1/4-Inch plastic or copper refrigerator or ice maker water lines". I took that to mean it was adaptable to both quick connect or threaded connect as long as I had the parts...but this is not the case. So will have to buy another one tomorrow.
The filter looks fine but I could not install it myself since I have a different model installed now. I need a plumber to install it. The filter is supposed to last one year and this compelled me to buy it.
Filter was a replacement for an existing filter. The end connections are extremely easy to disconnect and reconnect. The whole exchange was done in a matter of minutes. My old R200 lasted 9 years before it plugged up, but they recommed it be done every yearI will follow that routine in the future.
The generic filter is not similar to the original Amana filter and cannot be installed. There were no instructions included so any alternative installation methods could not be attempted. The configuration of the top of the filter is not similar to the original Amana filter.
