GE WR57X10050 Water Valve for Refrigerator

GE WR57X10050 Water Valve for RefrigeratorMuch cheaper to order the part from here than the company. And not hard to replace by yourself. 5 Stars

The valve is precisely the right one for our fridge which, due to failure of the original valve (6 years old) resulted in a massive icemaker leak and flood. A repairman said the icemaker needed replacement and probably the motherboard, but I tried to use the KISS principle and Kept It Simple Stupid. I first replaced the least expensive element, which solved the problem of continuously flowing water far more cheaply than the repairman's suggestion (which wouldn't have helped at all). As it turned out, after studying available documentation I was also able to repair the icemaker by re-engaging a spring to a cam (disengagement prevented proper operation of the ice sensing horizontal-sweep arm which thus initiated operation of the failing valve that did not shut off water flow). After a number of months, the replacement valve continues to operate as expected.

Whirlpool Part Number W10335219: BIN-CNTLVR

Whirlpool Part Number W10335219: BIN-CNTLVRThis product was exactly what I was looking for, the largest door bin appropriate for my refrigerator. The traditional parts scheme found online would not indicate if the part number was for the smallest or the largest door bin.

Bought a new whirlpool fridge but wife thought door could use one more shelf. Good price, fits exactly, holds the stuff she wanted it to. Fast shipping-would purchase from this vendor again.

This is the same door bin that my Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerator/freezer has and for less than online parts stores. I ordered this with a glass freezer shelf and was glad to see the items combined for one $5 shipping charge instead of two charges for $10. The refrigerator/freezer had room for these and we needed this extra storage space that Whirlpool conveniently left out. Very happy with purchase.

GE WR30X10093 Refrigerator Icemaker Kit

GE WR30X10093 Refrigerator Icemaker KitI ordered this for my side-by-side GE refrigerator with upper, rear wall mounted ice maker. I read some other reviews and was worried about this product not being a direct replacement for the ice maker that came new with the refrigerator. NOT THE CASE!!! This is an OEM ice maker (regardless of another review I read) which is made in Indonesia just like the ice maker that comes with the refrigerator when it is new. It comes in a GE box with GE instructions. The cable length, mounting brackets and other critical items are all identical. The only difference is that the original ice maker had an on/off switch with an LED indicator. This has a slide switch which holds the ice arm in the full or retracted position. It installed in minutes and works perfectly.

The icemaker installed easily and started making ice within a few hours. The ice has all the characteristics of good ice. It's cold, it's hard and it cools my drinks!

I ordered the icemaker replacement because the plastic ice cube guard/deflector (plastic part with plastic teeth) had broken on my old icemaker, and this $1.00 part cannot be purchased separately. The replacement came, and the instructions said "DO NOT use the plastic ice cube guard in this new icemaker, replace with the guard from your old icemaker before installing". WHAT? Needless to say, I have used the guard that the new icemaker came with, and it has worked fine so far.

The print for my refrigerator showed the part #WR30X0327 as the icemaker I needed. Apparently it's obsolete and this #WR30X10093 was supposed to be the direct replacement. The adapter cord made the complete cord assembly way too long so had to do some maneuvering to get all the cord placed in the back so it could be mounted. Then the basket would not slide back in as this model hangs to low.

Then I get on here and find I can't return it. Great system!!

One thing I discovered is this part is listed under at least one other model number depending on where you look for it (in my case, a GE part lookup site, where this part number was in the URL but a different one was displayed on-page). That said it seems to be a pretty much universal icemaker for GE refrigerators, and in my case the Amazon price was well below what the refrigerator repair company quoted, and when accounting for the labor cost they would have charged, I saved upwards of $250 this way.

The only part of the installation that was confounding was that for my type of refrigerator, the instructions state to remove the plastic bar that runs across the tray and replace it with the one from the old (broken) icemaker. Problem was, that old one didn't quite fit this one right...it was too big, causing it to buckle slightly. I had to cut down the edge of the inner-most tooth to get a clean fit. No big deal, but a slight over-site by the manufacturer in assuming that the strip from the old icemaker would have the exact same dimensions. It's not a huge issue as this is not a moving part...it simply needs to not block the rotating plastic pins in the tray. I'm guessing that most people don't even bother anyway, and just leave the default strip in there.

Other than this minor adjustment, it was a snap. It fit in my freezer right where the old one went perfectly. It came with a new water tube, but I didn't need it. It also came with the wrong water funnel (where the water falls into the device), but it also had the correct mount for me to place the one from my old icemaker in the correct position, so again, no problems.

All in all, a sort of one-size-fits all replacement that lives up to its billing 99% of the time, and the remaining 1% is easy enough to work around.

And as the heading says, DO NOT throw out your old icemaker. You may need to salvage a couple of rudimentary parts from it to make this one fully compatible with your fridge...in fact, the instructions and design of this unit count on it.

EDIT: I just noticed that a lot of the rows of ice that came out of this icemaker were frozen together. This is typically a result of the tray water level being too high, but I could find no adjustment screw/dial for this. Turns out that it is under the plastic cover of the icemaker (there's just one screw to remove, hidden under a screw cover). Once off I found a screw with a "+/-" by it, which adjusts the water level. All is well now, but sure wish this had been in the instructions.

Whirlpool 67002659 Crisper Pan for Refrigerator

Whirlpool 67002659 Crisper Pan for RefrigeratorOne of my crisper pans had cracked and I purchased this product from Amazon as it seemed to have the most reasonable price. The product arrived on time and was an exact replacement for the pan I had. Very pleased with this purchase.

This pan arrived with a huge crack on its side and even though it was reportedly a universal size it was too large.

166 Bottle Wine Refrigerator with Stainless Steel Framed Door

166 Bottle Wine Refrigerator with Stainless Steel Framed Door
  • Manufactured to the Highest Quality Available.
  • Design is stylish and innovative. Satisfaction Ensured.
  • Great Gift Idea.

Nice cooler. Good price point. I like the controls and the even temperature regulation. The light and door lock are great small "details" that are quite useful. Door hinge is reversible and setup was a breeze.

My biggest issue is the drawer spacing...barely deep enough to accommodate the slightly thicker bottles that seem to dominate the market these days. To access the back of the drawer, the bottles in the front of the drawer get scraped right across the label. If the front row of bottles is turned sideways to keep the label from peeling off, they can't be read. What a nuisance! Needs about 1 more inch of drawer spacing to jump to an excellent rating.

Cooler was delivered to curbside, despite paying $300 for alleged "white glove delivery." Cooler was delivered defective. Plugged in and allowed appropriate time to cool down, however after 12 hours we discovered that the temperature controls did not work. Can not adjust temperature down. Only the UP button works. Called Amazon and were told to contact vendor. Vendor first told us to return in orginal packing with a Fed Ex label. Cooler weighs 275 pounds and was delivered by truck freight! Then they told us to get it fixed under warranty or accept a refurbished cooler if it could not be fixed. Totally UNACCEPTABLE to ask us to repair or exchange a brand new cooler for reburbished when we paid for a new product. Vendor does not accept responsiblity for their product. Product in general cheap construction. One stainless steel side panel dented and sharp spur on handle. BOTTOM LINE: DO NOT BUY FROM THIS VENDOR OR THIS PRODUCT. WE ARE VERY SORRY WE DID.

This is a great purchase! Not only do my wines stay a consistent 54 degress but it looks very classy and cool. You do need to maneuver some of the larger bottles but they usually fit if you pull the shelf out all the way or put the big ones (champagne, etc) on the top or bottom shelf. All in all, I am VERY happy with this fabulous wine fridge.

My fridge made it through its first summer without a hitch. It doesnt seem to draw to much energy since my electric bills didnt seem to increase but a couple dollars. My wine is kept at the perfect drinking temp. Oh, and it is in my garage which can get a bit warm in the summer.

The gasket around the top of the filter was too big. It didn't fit and caused a major leak out of the fridge, and even made it down to the lower level making a very big mess. I replaced the gasket with the one around the old filter and its working ok now, although the water doesn't really taste very good, but maybe that will go away.

great price, about half the cost of replacement in local store, just what I needed as replacement for my samsung frig, will puchase again

Cuisinart DCC-1200 Brew Central 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker

Cuisinart DCC-1200 Brew Central 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, Black/Brushed MetalI've had the Cuisinart DCC-1200 for about a week now. I was hesitant to spend so much on a coffee maker but I'm happy to report it's well worth it. Sure, you can get other brands of coffee makers for under $25 if economy is the most important feature, but I've had those machines and I decided that, this time, a good cup of coffee was most important for me. This unit makes the best coffee I've had in a home or office machine and better than most coffee I've had in restaurants.

This coffee tastes smooooooth! I suspect the charcoal water filter is the reason for that. I also like the "shower head" design of the water spout. The water actually runs up a track onto the underside of the lid and is sprinkled over the ground coffee like a rain shower.

It's an attractive unit but it also looks like a serious coffee maker. This unit is no toy. It looks and feels solid. The carafe has a good solid feel and balance. The plastic parts (like the plastic carafe lid and handle) feel like good heavyweight plastic and are well molded. It's not the lightweight crappy plastic that cracks and discolors easily in the cheap coffee makers.

I like the 5 beeps when the coffee is ready. Now I can leave the kitchen and go clean or whatever and I don't have to keep running back to see if I can get a cup yet. I can hear the beeps. But if I really can't wait and want a cup in mid-brew, I can just remove the pot and pour a cup you've got a full 30 seconds to reinsert the pot, before you risk an overflowing filter.

I like the permanent gold-tone filter too. I always thought paper filters were a pain. They'd fold over sometimes and there'd be grounds in my coffee. But you can use paper filters in this machine if you want to. I just prefer the convenience of the gold-tone filter (top rack machine washable too).

It has an indicator light for cleaning -it says it's "self-cleaning" but really it's just a light telling you when you need to pour in a pot of water/vinegar and run it through to decalcify the unit. (I never thought to do that with my other units. Probably another reason my coffee wasn't as good as I wanted it to be.)

The low-medium-high setting on the hot plate is pretty nice too. And the auto-shutoff feature is great. I don't have to worry about forgetting to turn the machine off.

The instruction booklet is very good and very thorough. Comes with a parts reordering form too.

What don't I like about this machine? It requires maintenance in that you have to change the charcoal filters. But actually I don't mind since I think they are the reason the coffee tastes so smooth, and they are very easy to change and not expensive

Also, the area in the top of the machine where you pour in the water is narrow but again this is just a minor inconvenience. Just have to pour a little carefully.

So really it's almost all positives with a couple of very minor negatives. I highly recommend this coffee maker.

(2008 HOLIDAY TEAM) When my Braun FlavorSelect coffee maker unexpectedly stopped working, I had to scramble to find a new machine. I wanted another Braun, but unfortunately, they seem to have stopped making a 12 cup coffee maker. So I had to begin an intense search for a machine that had the features I wanted combined with good value. I finally found it with this Cuisinart model.

The advantages? For one, it makes excellent and HOT coffee. The carafe is solidly constructed and fits securely in square body so there's no chance of someone accidentally knocking it loose. Because the lid fits tightly, the pour is precisely narrow and smooth, with no side leaks even when the pot is full. The basket fits inside the housing instead of swinging free like so many models which prevents a misalignment between the water and the filter; the conical (Krups/Braun style) basket accepts both paper filters and gold-tone, although I learned the hard way that not all gold filters fit. The timer is very easy to program, as is the clock. The carafe warmer can be set at low, medium, or high for the temperature that's right for you. I found the "high" setting too hot since I drink my coffee black (I like my coffee hot but not scalding!), but those who add a lot of milk might appreciate it. The brewing is quick and efficient, with the process taking about a minute a cup, maybe less. The retro/stainless look complements most modern kitchen décors. There's a 1-4 cup setting to make sure such small amounts stay hot, and you can select how long the warmer remains on. The pot beeps five times when brewing is complete and just before the warming plate shuts off. Parts are top rack dishwasher safe. It comes with a water filter system designed to improve the taste of the brew.

But the Cuisinart does have disadvantages. The water reservoir is located on the right side, in the back, which makes it a little challenging for lefties like me to dump the final bit of water inside even though the carafe pours very accurately. Although I haven't yet missed the opening, I do struggle briefly with those last few drops unless I use my right hand. The housing is fairly tall, so if your counter space is only under the cabinets, you may not be able to lift the top in its entirety. (This is when the small rear reservoir becomes a major issue as you have to have room to completely lift the rather large top toward the back.) Clearance required: 7.5" wide by 8.5" deep of counter space with no overhead obstruction to pull out for filling OR 21.5" of overhead space to fully lift top. Without the top open, the coffee maker measures 7.5"w x 8.5"d x 14.25"h.

If you have the space for this coffee maker, you'll love it. I can't attest to how long it will last, but, as it comes with a three year warranty, I'm hoping for a good run.

Two weeks ago, I needed a new coffee maker. The Krups Aroma Control maker is in all the stores and catalogs, so I bought one in the local mall BEFORE reading the Amazon reviews. BIG MISTAKE. Lesson learned read the reviews many negative comments. I used it for 3 days, and readily understood the description (...) of "eye candy" (looks nice, but seems like cheap plastic) and weak coffee (what they describe as a feature allowing the coffee to steep is really a euphemism for a poorly designed system that is guaranteed to give you a weak cup of coffee). One redeeming feature the carafe is very nice.

Within 2 days of having the Krups, i was on Amazon looking for a replacement coffee maker (a good cup of coffee is critical in the morning!). I went out on the risk curve and ordered the new Cuisinart no reviews yet. The Cuisinart has a more classic brewing system (water goes through grinds via gravity), yields a delicious cup of HOT coffee, has a variable temperature hot place, and looks and feels solid. We happen to have stainless steel appliances (refrigerator, freezer, stove), and it matches beautifully. Best news excellent coffee!. I would highly recommend the Cuisinart.

I've commented on others' reviews, but wanted to get this up there where people can see it readily. I liked this coffee maker a LOT since I got it just over a year ago. It has a few little quirks, which you'll read about in other reviews, but made good coffee and I hadn't had any problems with it. UNTIL last week. It auto-brewed like normal and my husband had taken his coffee and left the pot with the remaining coffee (2-3 cups worth) for me to drink later. I came into the kitchen perhaps 20 minutes after the brewing to find the pot BOILING...literally, a HARD, rolling boil, there was a little smoke and the kitchen smelled like burning wires. I cringe every time I think of what "could" have happened if I hadn't been there! I removed the pot, unplugged the unit, and poured water into the reservoir in hopes of cooling it down which worked.

I was outside the return time for Amazon so I contacted Cuisinart to inquire about the 3-year limited warranty. They "normally" charge a $10 replacement fee, plus require you to pay to send the old unit back to them. They were willing to waive the $10 return fee, but I paid $9.95 to send the old one back. I haven't yet gotten the replacement, but after doing more research, I've decided that I don't feel safe using it. I've contacted the Consumer Products Safety Commission (1-800-698-2772) and suggest that anyone with a similar problem do so. I think that this coffee maker should be recalled.

I'm adding more here in hopes that this review gets refreshed and up to the top again! In addition, I've commented the following on another's review:

"I'm one of those who posted in an earlier posting about the fire hazard on this coffeemaker. I am SHOCKED that it is still being sold! People if you are looking at this coffeemaker, I suggest you keep looking. Yes, it makes great coffee and looks great, as many reviewers have said. However, please give more weight to the safety issues than the coffee or the looks. As far as I can tell there have been no injuries from this...but it seems just a matter of time. If you insist on this coffee maker, don't ever leave it alone on the stay warm setting!"

Folks, this is one excellent coffee maker. I read the comments here and decided to get it even though some had complained of spillage when lifting the lid and also the coffee not being hot enough. Well I can tell you that when I lift the lid on mine, the water rolls to the back and then drips back into the machine on a nifty little lip attached to the back of the machine. It appears that Cuisinart has engineered a solution for the complaints of spilled water that some reviewers mention. Also, the coffee coming out of the carafe of my machine has steam drifting off of it, so it is plenty hot, another complaint that seems to have been remedied. There were also a couple of complaints about finger prints on the stainless and the small LED clock being hard to read, but let's be for real, all brushed stainless appliances will fingerprint and this is a very stylish coffee maker, not a kitchen clock(that's what your microwave is for! (wink)). Actually I think the Cuisinart guys intended the clock for autoprogramming functions and made it LED to match the stainless on the machine. And if you don't like the water filter, you don't have to use it. It is a nicety and can be readily found if you search the net for "dcc1200 water filter".

Enough defending complaints though. This machine makes superb coffee. It has the best carafe I have ever used(it will not spill a drop and it has a built-in plastic rim to keep you from busting it on the sink). It comes with a gold metal filter. Buy it and you will like it. And if for some strange reason you don't, then take it back. All jabs aside, this is an outstanding machine in form as well as function, and the people at Cuisinart obviously care what their customers think of their products. That means alot to me. How about you???

GE CFCP1NIZSS Cafe 20.8 Cu. Ft. Stainless Steel Counter Depth French Door Refrigerator

GE CFCP1NIZSS Cafe 20.8 Cu. Ft. Stainless Steel Counter Depth French Door RefrigeratorWe purchased a home and this fridge came with the package. Upon moving in and using this fridge, I would have to say its not to user friendly. I would agree with the other user that the freezer has no room. I am not one to stock up on frozen goods but I can say that their isn't much room in the freezer. Everything has to be stacked on top of each other and it has two slide out drawers that do hold a decent amount but again one drawer is 3 inches from top to bottom. Not much you can put in that drawer (basket). The fridge is unique. Upon looking at it one would think oh wow I have tons of space. The shelves aren't that deep so long items have to be placed sideways which turns into a nightmare of rearranging shelves all the time. I can only fit a gallon of milk on one of the doors. If you wanted 2 containers of juice and a gallon of milk then you are storing your juice laying down. FIne if its a plastic container but not if its a cardboard thing of lemonade. Maybe this fridge works for some people but it doesn't work for my husband and I. I can only imagine the chore I am going to have when kids come along. Might have to go grocery shopping everyday.

Perfect for the single person but not a family of 2 or more that like to eat.

We bought this fridge 6 months ago, paid a lot of money for it, and its already broken. The freezer stopped working, and we lost over 200$ worth of food. Another problem is the water dispenser INSIDE the fridge. Every time you want some water from the dispenser you have to open the doors, which warms up the fridge, so the compressor has to work to cool it down, so it is not very energy efficient. The freezer design, is very poor, and has very little space for one this size. The refrigerator compartments also have the same poor design, that allow for very little storage. We would NOT recommend these Cafe refrigerators to anyone, they are of poor quality and craftsmanship, and are made in Mexico!!! BTW we also bought the dishwasher in this series, and it is also garbage for the price, see are other review for info!
