Whirlpool Kitchenaid Estate Water Filter

Whirlpool Kitchenaid Estate Water FilterI'm someone who puts things off... especially something as easily forgettable as changing my water filter in the fridge. This item worked perfectly, and I could tell the difference in our water instantly.

Luma Comfort EC220W High Power 1650 CFM Evaporative Cooler with 650 Square Foot Cooling

Luma Comfort EC220W High Power 1650 CFM Evaporative Cooler with 650 Square Foot CoolingBought this cooler for our barn, which is, of course, much bigger than the 600 square foot area this cooler is supposed to cover, but it made a huge difference when we had many, many 90 degree days this summer. The cooler not only cooled but provided some much needed moisture in a very dry environment (Colorado) and with a few additional fans to circulate the cool moist air from this Luma Evaporative Cooler, it was a very satisfying investment!

Thank you Amazon.com

No pun intended...

The Good:

This unit is pretty powerful, and cools my workshop down easily. The space is about 700 sqft, so I guess a little larger than they recommend for this unit, but it works great.

The combination of a big water tank with a direct water hookup is a great feature, especially since the slot you fill is a bit small for a unit this size.

It's durable we banged it around pretty good the first week, not on purpose.... It held up like a champ though, and other than a few dings here and there, you wouldn't even know it.

The bad:

The water input slot is a bit small for a unit this size, but the direct water hookup makes up for it.

The wheels get stuck once in a while, but that might be more due to the dirt and crud on the floor. It's pretty light too, not sure if that has something to do with it.

It's an evaporative cooler, so while it works great in my AZ garage/workshop, I can't bring it with me to Chicago it's useless there with the high humidity level.

Overall:

This is a great unit, and even after shipping it ended up being less expensive than some of the PAC units I was looking at for the area. I wish the water opening on the back was a bit bigger, but that's really just nitpicking at this point.

Got this to help cool my house so I can save money instead of using my central air. It works great! We're getting close to 100 degree days and it's keeping my house at or below 80 with just plain water and the pads it came with. I plan to take another reviewer's suggestion and buy the other pads to see if that keeps things even cooler. I have a 1700 sq ft house. It's in my living room. I have my dining room sliding glass door open and the window right behind the cooler open, and it controls the humidity well. I keep my hallway doors closed and have a fan blowing the cool air down the hall toward my bedroom. Yes, it can be a pain to fill up manually, but I just bring my hose in through my sliding glass door and fill it that way. It only takes a minute or two. So glad I got this!

This is my first swamp cooler. A neighbor lent me an older Bonair which did not cool as much as this unit (panel to small). I chose this model because of its capacity to cool up to 650 sq. feet. A swamp cooler is only as effective as the size of the panels and yet sellers don't mention it which is odd. I've been using it for 10 days:

Pros: large water tank, the back panel is 19x16" and the 2 side panels are 8x23", it cools enough to make it pleasant, there is no smell; the noise level is acceptable to me.

Cons: the wheels don't move well, water/ice inlet is too small it can only hold about 8 ice cubes, too expensive for what it is; there is no remote control or pump shut off if the water gets too low. It comes with one small hose adapter that attaches to the back.

I live in the Mojave and it's around 100F now and that also means that our city water is lukewarm. I bought a 2 gallon watering can and add ice and water before I fill up the tank and I add extra ice to the water inlet. The more ice the colder the air. Not for the lazy but better for the environment and the wallet. I gave it 4 stars because it does cool and because of the large holding tank and panels.

Frigidaire 134101400 TERMINAL BLOCK KIT

Frigidaire 134101400 TERMINAL BLOCK KIT
  • TERMINAL BLOCK KIT USED ON FRIGIDAIRE BRAND CLOTHES DRYERS.
  • Works with the following models: Frigidaire 30-2758-00-03, Frigidaire 30-2758-00-04
  • Frigidaire 30-2758-23-03, Frigidaire 30-2758-23-04, Frigidaire 30-2758-66-03

Did not come pre-assembled as I would have hoped, and was a pain in the ass to assemble. Took several days and several people working on it to put it together because it was not made in such a way that it just popped together.

Recommend buying from somewhere where the block is pre-assembled or at least made to be EASILY assembled.

This item was not an EXACT replacement for the original part, and it did not come with the special square nuts for connecting the wires. I had to modify the dryer cabinet in ordedr to use this new terminal block, and I had to find and purchase the square nuts locally. Other than the extra time necessary to complete my repair job, all went well and the dryer is working again.

GE MSWF Refrigerator Water Filter, 1 Pack

GE MSWF Refrigerator Water Filter, 1 PackWater tastes salty post installation. Water did not taste like that with previous factory installed filter. My tap water does not taste salty unfiltered. Probably would not buy again. Would purchase filter next time from an authorized GE dealer.

**UPDATE Seller contacted me after this review and offered to send me a replacement filter, free of charge and free shipping. It arrived VERY quickly (within 3 days of the email). New filter works great, so the 1st filter problem must have just been a fluke. I would order from this seller again. Good product and great customer service.

All three replacement filters from FiltersFast exhibit issues. Poor water flow and squeal from inside the fridge. Replaced new filter with old one and all is fine. New filters are different on the insert old ones had one large hole with multiple tiny holes around it. New ones have one large hole and two slotted holes on each side. All three new ones are lousy. Takes 45-60 seconds to fill a standard 8oz glass. Not acceptable. Called GE directly who said no change has been made to product line. Bought two more in town, one from Sears, another from HH Gregg. Both have the same design as the new ones from FiltersFast and are also lousy.

I have resorted to using the filter plug in order to have decent water flow. The filter design has obviously changed and either GE is not admitting to it or their representatives are ignorant to the change.

I hate my fridge now and currently using a Brita pitcher filter on the counter top. Neither Filtersfast, Sears or HH Gregg will accept a return. I'm now a proud owner of six new filters, over $200 in cost, that won't work worth a flip. Oh, and those of you who want to repeat what GE told me over the phone yes, both the old filter with the tiny holes and the bypass plug work fine. There is NO clog in the water line. It's the lousy new filters that GE is pushing to all the vendors.

I live in the Tucson, AZ area and our water is very hard. I test my water regularly out of the tap and it shows 240. I test the water out of my R/O system and it tests at 22. The water coming out of my ref with the GE filter which comes from the R/0 system is 20. I have the cleanest water in our neighborhood. The only issue I had was the GE filter took a couple of months to get back to "normal" testing range. When I fist installed it, the water tested at 40. Now that it's back to "normal" I'm pleased. Also the install was easy reading the simple directions took longer that the install. You just twist off the old one and twist on the new one and then run about 5 gallons through the system.

I purchased this filter and you can see a very poor job where the filter appears to have been remanufactured. I have purchased several of these filters at Lowes and none were like this on. It has been cut at the top and even has plastic splinters remaining where it was seamed back together. The filter rattles as well. No more for me and I will pay a little extra and purchase from Lowes or Home depot from now on. It might work OK but I did not want a used cartridge and there was nothing in the description describing it as such.

After replacing the MSWF water filter (2 different filters), the water dispenser is now really slow. It also makes a squealing sound. I have no idea if this is a refurb part or not. I will try and purchase a filter from Home Depot or Lowe's and see if that works.

Maytag MSD2559XEW 35 1/2 25.8 cu. ft. Side by Side Refrigerator - White

Maytag MSD2559XEW 35 1/2 25.8 cu. ft. Side by Side Refrigerator - WhiteAfter three years of service, the fridge quit cooling properly. My new house came with all new Maytag appliances, which I thought was good because they would last. First the Microwave blew it's controller board six months ago, now the fridge quit working and one of the burners on the Maytag glass top stove won't heat.

I would encourage folks to buy anything OTHER than Maytag. These new products are expensive pieces of garbage.

The Maytag repair man apparently got schizophrenia and was promoted to director of quality and design!

I would rate it zero stars but that is not allowed. So upset with this fridge that I had to track it down every where it's being sold and let the world now about this piece of junk. My original review of this product is on sears.ca. The icemaker is junk. It broke twice under warranty. Repaired each time. I had a choice of extended warranty and I chose not to because I thought the defective ice maker was replaced so it couldn't possibly break again. It did, right after the warranty was up. It will cost $480 to have it replaced. The storage compartment for meats/wines etc does not keep its temperature. It says it can store meats (deli meats I assume) and I set it at deli meat storage temperature only to have the meat go bad. Now, I usually only keep stuff like milk and eggs in there short term. Water dispenser dispenses warm water. It looks very pretty though, but don't let that fool you.
