I've had this installed for about 6 weeks. It is easy to use and has plenty of power. I this the platter is a bit small but it has not been an issue yet. The venting and lighting are nice features.

Mine stopped working after 2 years. I thought I might have just bought a lemon so I went to the Sears site to price them. I thought it would be easier installation if I got the same model, with the same bracket and vent location, etc. Check out those reviews--it seems it isn't just me. It was the only appliance I didn't get a warranty on because it was so cheap compared to most appliances. I don't recommend this product.

The inside cavity is large and very well lighted. Very convenient. The front panel is not exactly easy to read, and to decipher what the buttons are and what they are for. The exhaust fan is reasonably quiet, but does not draw very well. There are minimal descriptions--just a flimsy 6 page handout type paper-on what the microwave is, what it does, and how to operate it. We called Maytag customer service, and there is no other manual or instructions available. I would not recommend it.

This microwave is very sturdy. The door sounds solid when closed and the oven is working well. When it arrived there was no visible damage to the packaging but significant denting of the back left outside of the cabinet. The interior was not damaged so the installer straightened the cover as well as he could and installed it as planned. When installed that damage was concealed. The company that shipped it to me responded to my report of damage and gave me a 10% credit on the purchase price even though I could not substantiate it with a photo as requested. (I could not justify hiring the installer to come back and uninstall it.) There is also a very small ding in the ss cover near the controls panel. My suggestion is that they doublecheck their packaging procedures but I am pleased with the looks and the operation of the microwave itself.

The product comes like the description says, it works perfect and it arrives on time, no problems with any thing

Frigidaire 216744500 Defrost Timer for Refrigerator

Frigidaire 216744500 Defrost Timer for RefrigeratorPerfect replacement for the factory control. Easy to install. I would recommend this to anyone that has a problem with their Frigidaire freezer.

Tried to fix my fridge with one of these defrost timers and got it delivered on time, worked as it supposed to. Just didn't fix the issue. Had to hire someone to reload the cooling gas.

Aqua-Pure AP510 Under Sink Drinking Water Filter

Aqua-Pure AP510 Under Sink Drinking Water FilterI ate at a sustainable restaurant that didn't serve bottled water, but offered chilled filtered water. It was so delicious that I asked the manager what kind of filter it was and he said a 3M Cuno. Cuno is Aqua Pure, so I decided to buy this filter for under the sink installation. A plumber took less than half an hour to install it (a decent handyman or homeowner could do this, I am just bad at DIY). The water is great. No more bottled water or crappy Brita or Pur filters.

SPT Energy Star 3.2 cu.ft. Double Door Refrigerator in Stainless Steel

SPT Energy Star 3.2 cu.ft. Double Door Refrigerator in Stainless Steel
  • Transparent vegetable storage drawer with glass shelf
  • Flush back design for space saving; Front leveling legs with can dispenser and tall bottle rack
  • Estimated yearly operating cost: $28 based on 10.65 cent per kwh 2007
  • Reversible door with slide-out wire shelf for storage versatility
  • 3.2 Cu.ft. Net capacity with double door and separate fridge and freezer compartments

This seemed like a good mini-fridge for a 12'*16' building we had constructed near the pool, where we use it just to keep a few beers and sodas cold. The stainless steel is hard to find in this price range. Unfortunately, even with such light usage the compressor seems to run constantly; I can't remember going into the building and not hearing it. Last week I plugged it into an energy monitor device for an objective view, and sure enough it's an energy hog. Maybe it's because it's in an unshaded spot, but the structure is insulated and not hot to sit in (we have a home theater, bathroom, and shower room in this "man cave"). Will update this review as we go through autumn, just to see if the season shift changes things.

Not too loud, small but can hold large drink items in door, this handsome little fridge has a real freezer, not just a cube tray in a compartment. So far, so good. They say to give it a LOT of room around it, we have less than the suggested 3-4 inches but the unit doesn't put out too much heat and it has been summertime.

Our Accounting Dept has limited space and this little guy tucks in just fine in a corner behind one of the doors here. It's great to have a mini-fridge that is exactly that a mini version of a full sized refrigerator.

Its just like a large fridge only smaller. I am currently using it as a beverage fridge underneath a bar counter. I have the freezer section to hold ice and the lower section to hold beverages ( nice six can stacker in the door ). Controls are easy and the finish is fine. I would recommend this as a beverage fridge or a small emergency fridge.

at first I thought it would be too small, but it fits my needs. It is quiet, most small ones are not.

Avanti 1.7-Cubic Foot Superconductor Beverage Cooler W/Mirrored Finish Glass Door

Avanti 1.7-Cubic Foot Superconductor Beverage Cooler W/Mirrored Finish Glass Door
  • Glass Door
  • mirror finish
  • softtouch elect controls
  • digital display
  • led interior lighting

I put this in my home theater room. I love the look of it. It's styling fits well in my modern home theater room. It sits on top of this desk I use as a counter and is next to all the snacks. Looks great. I love the mirrored finish. I turn the light on when I want to see through to the contents. This Refrigerator works just like my outdoor one by GE. It has one of those fans not any coils. So the fan turns on and off to cool the unit. This can be noisy if no other noise is present. By noisy I mean a gentle humming sound. It's the presence of sound that is what is different. However, I guess I hear my kitchen fridge humming too. The racks could be sturdier. I do not know how you would get the number of cans they said on the description in this unless you possibly turned them to the side. It cools well and my drinks are cool on the medium setting. I would definitely recommend this unit. I think those who reviewed this badly used in areas where they were bound to have issues. This is not an outdoor unit. So do not expect great results outside or in a non regulated garage setting. This fridge will be great if you use indoors in a temperature controlled area.

I'm not sure why they sell it as a see through mirror front face. You can barely see through it. It works great! Keeps all my drinks ice cold and the best part is it is almost completely silent as it runs.

It's not what I expected. I was hoping to be able to use this for drinks and beverages.

Few minuses:

Doesn't cool, if is hot outside, the beverage is not cold.

Runs continuously (not high efficiency as advertised)

KX Technologies MATRIKX-CTO2-HD10 MatrikX Whole House Filter Replacement Cartridge

KX Technologies MATRIKX-CTO2-HD10 MatrikX Whole House Filter Replacement Cartridge
  • Drop-in cartridge provides quick and easy filter change
  • Optimized to perform as both a sediment and activated carbon filter
  • Radial flow (outside-to-inside) filtration provides increased dirt-holding capacity
  • Competitively Priced vs. GAC filters

This filter fits the same as the large whirlpool filter from Lowes. It seems to last twice as long though. I have lots of iron in my water, after 14 days of service live on one of the filters from Lowes I could taste iron. The filter I got/get from here last 60+ days before the iron taste starts to show up. Great quility item.

I got this to replace a whirlpool filter. It fits perfectly and filters better that whirlpool's original filter. This filter also last longer the whirlpool filter. We noticed a difference right away.
