This is my first front loader. This washer gets my clothes clean clean clean! Matter of fact ,since I bought this unit everyone keeps complimenting me on how good my clothes smell! The spin cycle is barely audible, which is a non issue as mine is out in the garage. The end of cycle is a surprising little melody instead of a buzzer. My 8 year old is pretty messy with ketchup and so far, knock on wood, this baby hasn't missed one stain. I am not even sure how it cleans the clothes so well considering the amount of water it uses, but it does an amazing job and they are so fresh too! I feel very grateful to have this set. I have the matchibg steam dryer and it is just as awesome!

I purchased an LG Washer WM2655HVA 4 months from Home Depot. A couple of months after purchasing the Washer we started facing issues with this Washer when it started giving an LE indicator ( indicating heavy load ). Though the load of clothes was average, we kept getting this message results every other day till we called LG Customer Representative who told us to reduce the load. Yesterday I put only 1 bedsheet for washing & we again faced the issue for 2 hrs 50 mins. We had to call LG/Home Depot & the Customer Representative told us that we should contact their Service Technician in our area to look at the issue. When we contact the Technician he immediately told us that the Motor would need to be replaced even without coming to our place to check the issue. It means that this ia a known issue with LG Washers that within few months of its operation we face this issue. I would highly discourage everyone not to buy LG products.

Purchased the unit in July and the damn thing is broken already. The "LG" stands for LICKS GASH. Do not purchase this from HH GREGG or anyone else. RUN FROM THIS UNIT!!!

I purchased wine cooler to replace a trash compactor as part of a kitchen update. I have only owned it for three weeks. Product looks good and operates efficiently. It is particularly noisy when it cycled on; louder than the garbage disposal or dishwasher. That aside, I would definitely recommend it.

The shelves are strong if two are side-by-side on the same level (if they are NOT on the same level, they are a little shaky) and they can slide out a few inches to leave room for a tall bottle of wine on the shelf below. The discreet occasional beep might not alert you to a door left open. The freezer section has good air circulation. The shiny black surface doesnt show fingerprints the way stainless steel does. The motor is so silent I thought it wasnt working! The door bins are clear plastic, so you can see what's in them. I did not install the ice maker, so cant review that. Altogether I am VERY happy with the LG refrigertor.

Kenmore 46-9911 / WF2CB Refrigerator Water Filtration Cartridge

What you actually get is an updated filter for newer refrigerator models. DO NOT use the filter you receive (which is a Frigidaire PureSource 2) if you are actually trying to get is a Kenmore WGFC 2000 part number 9911. It will leak all over the place and when you try to use your in-door water dispenser the filter actually forcefully ejects itself!!

This Item is what I ordered because it was advertised, but the seller stated that they no longer carry, or make this item. The product they did send was from Fridgidare, This cheaply made replacement( Fridgidare) was made in Singapore. Kenmore products are made in USA, and are better quality. The Singapore product is no where even close in quality. The Singapore product does perform so far, but is overpriced, this is just my opinion. But I will no longer order water filters for my Kenmore from Amazon, or APPLIANCE TECH PARTS. APPLIANCE TECH PARTS the co. I purchaced the product from. I was so disappointed with the product I received. The Fridgidare item was very hard to push in my unit. The part that goes into the unit is only half covering. The filter is white, so you can not see the inside. I liked seeing the inside of the filter, so I knew is was performing correctly. Why was one item advertised, when it was no longer made, the picture is of the Kenmore product, made in USA. This is very deceiving to customers. But this is just my opinion.

update on 6/10/13

OK, I ordered new water filters WF2CB, because they supposedly no longer make 9911, they shot out, hit me in the head, broke jar of olives, they lied when they say that Kenmore no longer makes replacement water filter, I called Sears,1-800-4myhome, and they said that Sears still makes replacement parts for my refrigerator, now I have ordered it, jeepers, I can't wait till I see it, I even went to Sears in person, and they do not have the correct filter in store, Home depot, only has the Pure Source 2 by Frigidaire, I guess you must order this correct item from Sears by phone. So if someone tells you, it is no longer made, they are lying to you, but wait, I just ordered it, must wait and see if it is correct one. I am sick of liars, I just hope Sears is being honest with me.

Not only did they ship the wrong item I had to pay $14 to return it !! I ordered the Kenmore item and they shipped another brand that wouldn't fit.

After I returned the item I ordered the right filter from Sears as I should have in the first place.

LG LFX25974 25 Cu. Ft. French Door Refrigerator with Pull-out Freezer Drawer and Ice and Wat, Stain

It is a great refridgerator, but the ice maker is not creating enough ice. We've had a technician already replace the motor and it still isn't working properly. It will only make one tray of ice during an entire night. A tech will be back out in a couple days to try and fix it again. But if this doesn't finally resolve the problem, I'm swapping it out for a different model (non-LG).

Icemaker on new model is way too touchy. Does not make ice for days. We follow directions in detail. Then we have to deal with customer service -another country heard from -literally.

Fixing this problem should not take this much man-hours on my part. Wishing we could just phone a repairman like when I was a kid.

Our prior fridge we had a model for 15 years before it began to fail. Only drawback on that model was difficulty in changing water filter. This LG -the most positive thing is ease in changing water filter. That is the only improvement over our late-'90s fridge.

• Double-paned, insulated, glass door; interior light; security lock
• Measures 24 by 23-1/4 by 34-1/2 inches

I purchased this item (in black) from Amazon.com and was so disappointed that I ended up returning it. Kudos to Amazon. They paid for return shipping and even reimbursed me for additional packing materials I needed to buy. Now, on to the review.

If you know a little about wine storage, you know that the ideal temperature for red wine storage is 55 degrees (Ideal drinking temperature is 60F). This is important, because if like me, you are purchasing the fridge for red wine storage only, you need to know that only the top 2 shelves maintain this temperature. With the digital thermostat set to 55, the mid and lower sections will drop an additional 10 degrees or more. Way too cool for red wine. So, immediately, your storage capacity is reduced from 60 bottles to say 12 (depending on bottle size).

In the end, I purchased a much smaller fridge, capacity 16 bottles. Because of its small size, it maintains almost the same temperature throughout (top to bottom). When I need more storage, I will buy another small wine fridge. A slightly more expensive option is to buy a fridge with an interior fan (to circulate the air), but these are hard to come by in this price range. If you are really serious about your wine, you'll want humidity control (which this fridge doesn't have). 55-75% humidity is ideal for wine storage as it prevents the corks from drying out and spoiling the contents.

The next major problem with this fridge is the racking. I placed two bottles of wine on the top shelf. The bottles dropped through the racking, and came crashing to the bottom of the fridge. I'm not sure what the interior is made of, but the impact of the bottles left two large dents in the floor of the fridge.

Of the dozen or so wine fridges I've looked at in the past few months, this has to be the worst.

Buy Vinotemp 60 Bottle Wine Cellar Now

I have owned 2 Vinotemp products that quit working properly within 18 months of purchase: a 24-bottle wine cellar that stopped working entirely at 18 months and most recently, the 60-bottle (Model VT60) that started malfunctioning just after the 12 month warranty expired.

Vinotemp was of no use nor would they stand behind their product. No one locally services the Vinotemp product, leaving the buyer to work on thier own unit if necessary. Vinotemp didn't provide proper technical information (NO customer support to speak of), nor would they return phone calls. Vinotemp advised me I needed one part, when in fact, I really needed another. Although they made the errors, they wouldn't take the part back unless I paid for shipping, and I was subject to a 35% restocking fee. Even though I have correspondence from them stating what I needed, they claimed I gave them the wrong information. Even their CEO tried passing the blame, and it was her email that initially gave me the wrong technical information!

Vinotemp communicated to me that these units are produced in China to meet customer requests for smaller units, and because they aren't manufactured directly by their high-end factory in Los Angeles, the customer gets what they pay for! Nice to know that Vinotemp is giving their cutsomers a single finger salute! After months of trying to deal with them, I just threw out the wrong part in frustration and purchased a different unit from another manufacturer.

As for the capacity of the VT60, it does not hold 60 bottles unless you're storing nothing but Pinot Noir/Burgundy and/or Chardonnay bottles (for those who aren't familair with the difference, think tapered bottles versus bottles with "shoulders", which include Cabernet Sauvignon/Bordeaux bottles). You will NOT be able to store 60 bottles if you have a combination of Cab and Pinot bottles. If holding capacity is truly a concern, research other units to ensure you can store what the manufacturer claims you can based on your storage needs.

Bottom line...buyer beware. In my experience, you'll only get 18 months at best out of their product, and Vinotemp failed to stand by or support their product. They refused to accept responsibility for their errors and apparently expect their customers to be experts on the Vinotemp product to be able to walk their Service Dept people through the replacement part ordering process. I suggest you look at another manufacturer. Your time, money, and frustration-level will be better served elsewhere dealing with a company that markets a reliable product who values the ideals of customer support and brand loyalty.

I bought one of these. It stopped working after about 18 months.

Vinotemp would not recommend anyone for service. Called someone, who got the wrong part twice. Called someone else, he (I hope) figured out the right part. Vinotemp will not send part without signed and faxed papers. Part and shipping is under $30.

Vinotemp appears to me to be a rinky dink outfit whose stuff is hard to service.

This thing worked fine for a couple of years--then I came home to find 7 bottles of wine frozen solid! No warning, no sign of any problems except a little bit louder noise from the compressor. Vinotemp literally laughed over the phone--all they cared about was whether it was still under warranty. Absolutely no concern, no ownership of the problem. I'll never buy another product from them and I recommend you don't either. What idiot would build a wine cellar that even has the capability to freeze? What a lousy product. I bought the damn thing to keep wine from going bad and now I have 7 bottles ruined for sure and 51 more that are probably not worth drinking.

To the reviewer who "disagreed" with other reviewers who'd described problems--watch out! I would have written the same thing last week. Now I know better.

Cuisinart DCC-1100 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker

After buying a succession of cheap coffee makers which broke down after a year or two and made mediocre coffee, I decided to upgrade to Cuisinart.

I don't agree with the negative comments about this product.

The clock is easy to program and it's clearly indicated that you should either use paper or gold filter (twice in the instructions). It's also easy to pour water in the reservoir if you use the carafe. You can turn the coffee maker to the left, and the reservoir opening is easily accessible. Its opening is by no means tiny, as a reviewer described it.

The center funnel which holds the filter is well situated and there is very little risk of dropping coffee grounds into the water reservoir.

The carafe is well designed, with a comfortable handle. It pours neatly, without dripping coffee all over the counter, something which always happened with my old Mr. Coffee.

You do have to realize the lid snaps down on top of the carafe. This is not explained in the instructions.

Most importantly, it makes an excellent coffee.

There is a 3 year guaranty which is more than I have seen for others.

So far, I have no complaint, and I am glad I bought this product for a great price.

UPDATE: I am still using this coffee maker as of today, August 13, 2012. It's still working well though there are signs of wear. The carafe lid is looser and the cover hinge has a tendancy to stick. Otherwise, there are no problems.

My name is Ryan, and I'm a coffee addict... My habit ranges from 1 to 3 pots a day just to remain conscious. So you can understand the level of misery I have had to endure this past week as my 4 year old Gevalia machine met an untimely death during a recent lightning storm. I then began the hunt for a new machine. Basically, Amazon was my first stop since they have everything. I read all sorts of reviews, and finally settled on this one. I must say, this is by far the best machine I've ever owned.

In reading the reviews, I found a few gripes that I don't agree with, so here's my response to those:

1. The number one gripe I see is filling difficulty. The fill hole is much larger than my old machine. Some people said its too small and makes a huge mess. My first time, it did drip a little bit but if you leave the lid off the pot while pouring, works like a charm. Let me put it this way... I wake up in the morning with the jitters, like a fiend looking for some crack... If I can pour it without making a mess ANYONE can. And that's a fact.

2. Numero Dos: Programming difficulty. I'm no rocket scientist by any means, but I had this thing programmed within about 5 minutes. I had no problem understanding the directions. I believe most gripes in this area are operator error.

3. Basket issues: It doesn't stand up on it's own, true, but I don't understand how anyone could miss the basket. Leave it in the machine for pete sake! I hope they don't miss their mouth with that hot coffee! Again, If I can do it without making a mess, anyone can. As for choosing paper or mesh filter, paper of course filters better, but mesh makes it stronger and leaves a bit of sediment in the pot... each way has it's benefits depending on how you like yours.

4. Flip-top so large you have to pull it out from under the counter: True, but how lazy can you be... honestly? It's not that hard of a chore. You'd be hard pressed to find a machine that isn't like this.

I, like others, had some pre-conceived notions from negative reviews, but I found most if not ALL of those to be some pretty weak arguments. I guess some people have more problems than others when trying to understand directions and such. This machine is top notch for the price, hands down!

OH! And please look through all the comments, It's going on 3 years and I have given multiple updates as time has passed. I'm sure you will enjoy!

Hello fellow coffee drinkers. Like most of you I have looked long and hard for a good basic coffee maker. In the last 5 years I have gone through 4 new products and have been quite dissapointed in this whole experience. I mean how hard can it be to make a good coffee maker. I had the basic braun coffee maker for 10 years and loved it. However, two new braun coffee makers later I realized that quality had gone down the drain with the coffee grinds. Then I purchased a krups. I returned it to the store within two weeks as it stopped working. They gave me a replacement which lasted just past the warranty. (figures) Then I tried a GE combo grinder brewer. That was the worst mistake I could have ever made. The first sign that it was garbage should have been when the GE emblem fell off. It leaked. It spilled. I spent more time cleaning than brewing, and thankfully it didn't last as long as its warranty and I had no intentions of getting another one free or not.

I have had this cuisinart now for three weeks. It does everything it says it will do. It never leaks, spills or makes a mess. As per the other reviews I feel it could have a bigger fill area but it really is no more difficult to fill than any other brewer I have owned. (don't let that stand in the way of buying this) I also think it is very easy to program and will even keep your settings in memory if it is unpluged for a short period of time.

This coffee maker works perfect and I hope it lasts as long as the warranty and beyond.

Happy brewing.

To make drip coffee, a machine has to do just two things well -heat the water adequately, and disperse the hot water over the grounds. Oddly, most coffee makers fail at one or the other. This Cuisinart does both pretty well, which is why it is probably the best machine on the market right now under $200 (and the reviews at Amazon testify to that).

TEMPERATURE: The overwhelming majority of brands do not heat the water adequately -if the water at the grounds is only getting to 175-180 degrees, you will have sour, weak coffee. Ideal temperature is around 202-205. Using a digital thermometer, I measured the DCC-1100 at 197 in the filter basket, which is quite good.

DISPERSION: The second task is showering the hot water over the grounds somewhat evenly. Many coffee makers just stream it in from a mini-faucet, so they overbrew the grounds in the center of the filter and neglect the grounds around the edges. Result is weak, slightly bitter coffee. The very expensive Capresso machine has this problem -it heats water to nearly 200 degrees but delivers that water poorly. The Capresso, which costs close to $200, makes mediocre coffee (at least it did for us). The Cuisinart isn't perfect in this regard but it does have a "shower head" design that disperses the water pretty well.

One other tip, which applies to all drip machines: Don't start with cold water. Room temperature is good. You can do this by running the tap partly warm, or by pouring the water the night before and letting it get to room temp. It gives the heating element a much better chance of getting the water to a good brewing temp.

This coffee maker makes great coffee, is fairly easy to use, and is true red. However...when ordering they do not tell you that it uses a small charcoal type filter that needs to be replaced every month or two (depending on use) and that these filters are far from cheap!

Breville WC15XL Wine Chiller

The description does not tell you that you still have to add water to unit in addition to the gel packs. I chilled my chardonnay for seven minutes and it was still warm. I had to chill it for 20 minutes to get it cold enough to drink. Gel packs don't allow you to chill several bottles without having to refreeze them or add ice to the machine.

The product works ok, but then we don't like our Chardonnay super cold either. I'm not so sure that an ice bucket filled with ice and water wouldn't do the same thing in just slightly more time. (You might want to try that before buying this chiller.) My primary reason for writing this review is to say that after about 3-4 months of intermittent use, the chill cells are oozing out freezer gel. They say it's "food safe", but nonetheless, that shouldn't happen. I'll contact Brevelle & hopefully, they'll make it right.

I tried to chill my white wine in seven minutes and it was still warm. They say chill, but what does that really mean? They should say what temperature it chills to in 7 minutes. I guess that is why they have a 15 minute timer. Also the description does not state that you have to add water so it is just as messy as an ice bucket and as much work.

I bought this on a whim, as a gift. It's certainly not all it claims to be; neither is it a total failure. Ten minutes gives you reasonably cool wine.

In my book, three stars is a typical, average product. This gizmo loses a point for being $50 instead of $15.

I received this item as a gift last christmas. We loved it. We are avid wine drinkers and collectors, mostly reds though, so I did not have alot of space in my wine fridge for whites (and the temp is set for my reds). This was a great gift for us, I find it gets VERY cold VERY fast. It even puts a little more chill on my wine than suits my palate, however, my husband does like his colder than I do, so I pour first and replace to chill a little longer for him. I too am very shocked at the low stars for this product. I am trying to find more to give as gifts this year.
