Water Sentinel WSF-1 Replacement Filters, 4-PACK

Water Sentinel WSF-1 Replacement Filters, 4-PACKI bought the 4 pack of water filters for our fridge. Installed fine, works great. I love that I paid less for 4 of the off-brand than 1-2 of the name brand. I recommend it!

This product is very poor. I guess, there is a reason why these filters are so cheap. The quality of water is not impressive at all after this filter. I thought it was just me, but all my friends have confirmed that my water now has a plastic taste to it after this filter has been installed.

I've contacted the seller and they were very friendly and stuff, no complaints in this area. They suggested installing another filter from the same pack (it comes in a bulk pack) before returning the product back. So I did. That did not change a bit. The water still has that plastic taste.

I would not recommend this product. Seriously, spend a couple of extra bucks and buy a real filter. Too bad I didn't read reviews prior to buying this product.

Cuisinart DGB-700BC Grind-and-Brew 12-Cup Automatic Coffeemaker, Brushed Chrome/Black

Cuisinart DGB-700BC Grind-and-Brew 12-Cup Automatic Coffeemaker, Brushed Chrome/BlackI purchased this coffee maker around Christmas and was a little concerned over the prior reviews that stated it uses too much coffee. The chemist in me had to do the experiment.

A standard issue coffee from Starbucks was ground to a standard medium grind for coffee makers of this type. The coffee was measured on a 1 gram precision scale according to the specification on the Starbucks coffee bag (2Tbs per 6oz cup) to make 6 cups of coffee. The coffee grinds weighed to be 54 grams. The same coffee beans from the same bag were ground in the coffee maker set to 6 cups and strong. The coffee grinds were then measured on the same scale and wouldn't you know...it was exactly 54 grams.

For my coffee beans this machine on the 6 cup setting produced the following:

Strong = 9 grams (2Tbs) of coffee per cup of water

Medium = 8 grams (about 1 3/4Tbs) of coffee per cup of water

Mild = 7 grams (about 1 1/2Tbs) of coffee per cup of water

I can't imagine that one couldn't find a setting to their liking when you consider you have increments of 2 cups with 3 settings (strong, medium and mild) each.

After considerable research for the absolute best coffee maker in the world, I decided to purchase the Cuisinart Grind and Brew DGB-700BC. It has a burr grinder. This one has the 12-cup glass carafe and it has a warming plate. Reviews on the stainless steel carafe have stated there is no warming plate. It seems the glass one does and the thermal one does not. It works perfectly and is very easy to program and use. It comes with a DVD which simplifies the process even more.

It can also brew ground coffee. Just turn off the grinder before pressing the on/off button and it's ready to go.

As for noise, I don't consider it too noisy. After all, it IS a coffee grinder and I expect to hear it when it grinds the coffee.

The hopper holds a half-pound of beans which is enough to make coffee several times (if you're using the mild setting).

The retail price is $199, but many places have it routinely for $169. I purchased mine at Kohls for $159 and they had a "scratch off" sale going on and I got an additional 15% off at the checkout.

I highly recommend this coffeemaker.

Buy Cuisinart DGB-700BC Grind-and-Brew 12-Cup Automatic Coffeemaker, Brushed Chrome/Black Now

I have owned a couple of grind and brews in the past with mixed results. Our first was a Mr Coffee back in the 1990's. It made great coffee, but was messy, and broke frequently. We also had the first Jura Capresso model about 6 years ago. I liked it, but my wife felt that no matter what the settings were, the coffee was bitter. Recenly we had been using a Krups stand alone machine, that makes good coffee, and a stand alone Krups burr grinder. Since our Krups burr grinder was getting finicky, and the coffee post was getting old, we decided to give the DGB700 Grind and Brew a try.

My initial take, is that it makes an excellent cup of coffee, better than my last Krups machine. I am still experimenting with the settings, but so far I am very pleased.

You do need to follow the directions. The key points I have found, is to make sure that the basket parts are dry. This means a quick rinse and dry between pots if you are making more than one.

I also have cleaned out the chute where the ground coffee goes into the basket. It's very easy, and although mine was not clogged after about 6 pots, I did see where the grounds were building up in there a bit. My stand alone burr grinder had the same issue, but the new Cuisinart pot is actually very easy to clean in this area. Just remove the bean hopper, open the chute, push the lever over, and push they grounds into the basket area. (put a filter in first). Actually now, I just clean the chute each time. It takes less than a minute, and I think that this is the one main issues that some people are having.

Also, I have lined up the arrows on the top of the basket. Easy to do, and it avoids some of the negative comments on other reviews. Finally, if you use paper filters, make sure that the top of the plastic basket is going INSIDE the top of the filter.

My wife likes her coffee mild and smooth, but flavorful. My settings to make 12 cups, are 6 Cups on the grind selector knob with Mild or MED on the brew strength selector. The brew has good smooth flavor, and is not bitter. I also drink a lot of iced coffee. I will simply up the strength when I make coffee for that.

Again, so far, so good. I think that following the guide and keeping the machine clean and dry should produce good results.

One last thought... other Grind and Brew brands (Jura Capresso) make a major point about NOT storing beans in the freezer. Actually, I have done this for years, but after doing a bit of Google research, I find that it's better to just keep the beans in an airtight container, and only open what you will use in a couple of weeks. We are doing that now. I do notice that this sees to make the beans less oily, so that may also be a key to why some people get clogs.

I will post a follow-up after I have had the machine for a few months.

OK.. update as of 3/12 the unit is still working well. I do clean the chute after most every pot, but this is easy, and only takes a minute. Again... I strongly suggest NOT storing your beans in the freezer. The research shows that freezing the beans can force oil to the surface of the bean, which can contribute to clogs. I will say that this pot makes excellent tasting coffee.

We have had to return two of these units because the grinder stops working. The problem is that the chute beneath the grinder is horizontal so the coffee grinds have to be pushed into the filter rather than falling in. Even after cleaning, the coffee grounds get packed into the grinding mechanism causing it to break.

I do understand why people say this is a great coffee maker though. When it works, it is very convenient and grinding the beans right before the brewing makes great coffee. I want to like this product but the poor design of the grinding chute makes it unusable.

Cuisinart is a decidedly unhelpful company. If you have a defective product, you can expect long hold times and rude customer service agents. The warranty on this item is that if you pay shipping & handling both ways, they will send you a replacement. After three defective units, they will issue a credit for other cuisinart products.

Update: California law requires them to replace the product without charging for shipping & handling. So, after telling me that they wouldn't waive those charges, they had to waive them anyway due to California law.

Want Cuisinart DGB-700BC Grind-and-Brew 12-Cup Automatic Coffeemaker, Brushed Chrome/Black Discount?

About once every two weeks I have a "bad coffee day" in which my machine just gets persnickity. I am usually guaranteed that I will have to make at least two pots before it gets it right. OK, so I've had this machine at my vacation home for about a year now and here's what I've learned:

1. The paper filters are much more convenient than the metal basket. I just throw the paper filter (preferably the unbleached kindbetter for the environment) into my garden and then all I have to do is rinse the basket and wipe with a sponge. Saves time and my septic system from the coffee grounds.

2. Don't forget to use a filter of some sort in the basket or your counters, cabinets, floors, walls, etc. will get coffee makeover. I am talking from experience.

3. Make sure you clean most of the removable parts before each use. You only need to clean the coffee bean holder every so often (I do it when the beans start to run out). You don't need to do a soap and water cleaning on the other parts but you should wipe them down with a rag or sponge under running water. It only takes a few seconds. Once a week or so toss everything into the dishwasher.

4. Make sure you have enough beans in the holder to brew the amount of coffee you want. As I said above, when it gets low is when you want to do your thorough cleaning.

5. Make sure that you put the carafe in fully and correctly. If there is one BIG criticism I have about this machine is that it's very easy to misplace the pot and give your kitchen a nice coffee tattoo. This most often happens when I am in a hurry and really don't have time to be cleaning up a big mess.

6. Clean the chute. You have to clean the chute regularly. Here are a few tips I've learned to make it easier. First, put a filter in the basket when you do this (I like to do it after I've done the "dishwasher cleaning" of my parts, but before I brew the next pot) but don't put the lid on the basket. That way the grounds will fall directly into the lined basket and if you do this often, there's no reason why you can't just leave them in there while you brew the next pot (your coffee will be a little stronger). Cleaning the chute only take a few seconds.

This is the 3rd incarnation of a Cuisinart grind 'n brew coffee maker I've had. The first was the one with the glass carafe where you had to put the beans in each time you brewed. There were 5 different parts that needed to be soap and water cleaned after each use, and quite frankly, I didn't notice a great improvement in quality of coffee for all the extra work. The second was just like the first except it had the thermal carafe. There was a vast improvement in quality, but again, so many parts to clean made me reluctant to use it. Also, unless you know exactly how to measure unground beans, you pretty much are stuck making a full pot of coffee. This last one has been a great improvement over the other two. I can make just a cup of coffee for myself in the morning or I can make a whole pot and everything in between. Yes there is a bit of labor to it, but considering where they've come from this machine is a vast improvement over the others and I can't stress enough how good the coffee is.

I've read the other reviews and the main things I hear people complaining about are that the pot doesn't pour fast enough and that the coffee isn't hot enough. I don't have a problem with how fast the coffee comes out of the carafe. It is a little slower but the difference is from a 3 second pour to about a 12 second pour. However, if that is unbearable I don't see why you can't just take the lid off of the carafe while you pour? It will come out just as fast as the glass carafe that way.

As for the temperature of the coffee, I am not sure how to address that as I've never found that to be a problem. When I do use the timer feature, I preheat the carafe at night before I set up the coffeemaker and the residual heat still assures that you are starting with a carafe that is not cold in the morning. Generally I don't use the timer and get my coffee immediately after it's done brewing. I also don't preheat my carafe. When I get my second cup in the morning it's still plenty hot so I'm just not sure what all the fuss is about. Of course I don't really like my coffee scalding hot either so maybe it's just a matter of preference.

I would also like to point out that I have recently remodeled my winter home and put in an $1,800 Miele coffeemaker that is built in and plumbed. It can make espresso, cappucino and cofffee with the push of a button. However, that has more parts to fuss with than this Cuisinart and talk about frequent cleaning! It does make the best cup of coffee I've ever had, but it's not all that much better than this unit at a fraction of the cost.

The bottom line is this-if you want a really, really good cup of coffee you either have to go to a coffee shop and pay for it (and often I find their beans much inferior to the ones I use) or put up with the inconvenience of the home machines. As far as I know, no one has come up with the perfect machine yet, but this one does make a most excellent cup of coffee.

So when deciding whether or not you want to buy this machine I would say you would need to ask yourself what's more importantquality or convenience. If you are a coffee fanatic as I am, it will be quality and this machine does come through. If you love coffee but are time challenged and can't be bothered with all the extra steps then I would say that this machine isn't for you.

GE GTS18CBDBB

GE GTS18CBDBB
  • 2 Adjustable Wire Shelves
  • Gallon Door Storage
  • Crisper Drawers
  • Upfront Temperature Controls
  • Optional Ice Maker

Most of this is fact but I have included some opinions.

I purchased a General Electric Profile refrigerator on 7/27/08 from Best Buy for $2281.23. It had been working acceptably until about the middle of April of 2012. We called GE repair and GE sent out a technician on 5/2/12, but he didn't have the part so he couldn't fix it the first time he came out. On 5/4/12 he came back out and did a few things including replacing parts WR55X10956, WR55X10490, and something called a REFER MAINBOARD Pkg. He said at first that he was sure it was the mainboard. The charges for the parts and labor was $324.91. Then when it wasn't acting the way he expected, he said he thought it might be the compressor but that we could wait to see if what he'd done fixed it. He ordered a compressor just in case and scheduled an appointment for 5/14/12 and told me if I got the compressor he'd come get it.. The refrigerator allows the consumer to set the freezer and refrigerator temperatures. We set them for the temperatures that GE recommends. The next day the refrigerator was maintaining the freezer and refrigerator temperatures so we canceled the 5/14/12 appointment. When canceling, we told the GE support person on the phone that he'd ordered a compressor to be delivered to my house. The support person said he'd canceled that too. Several days later we received the compressor that had been theoretically canceled. We never heard from the GE repair man about coming to pick up the compressor.

On 6/30/12 we noticed that the refrigerator was not maintaining the set temperatures so we called GE again.

They gave me an appointment for 7/6/12. Today he came out again but told me that they had not allowed him enough time to replace the compressor so he'd have to reschedule. The first available time for installing a compressor is 7/16/12.

I think GE is responsible for manufacturing a lousy product and having awful support of the garbage they manufacture.

GE Profile 259 Cu Ft Side-by-Side Refrigerator with Thru-the-Doo

GE Profile 259 Cu Ft Side-by-Side Refrigerator with Thru-the-DooI bought this refrigerator in January and had it delivered to my home in February. I've had it for almost 4 months now and haven't had any issues. The appliance itself is beautiful, inside and out. It's very large, so make sure you measure and have the space for it before you order it. I feel like this appliance and the other matching ones I ordered gave my kitchen an instant facelift!

The temperature controls on the front are handy. I don't mess with them much, but there is an option for extra cooling in the fridge section for when you go grocery shopping and put your items inside. It cools them down faster than normal to reduce bacteria. The ice maker works well. Occasionally I have issues with the ice clumping together and I have to reach in and shake it all around, but I've had that issue with many other icemakers. I haven't had an issue with the shelving the way the other reviewer mentioned, but occasionally I have trouble getting my cheese drawer to pull out. It seems to stick somewhat, but isn't a big deal. That's the only issues I've had at all with this.

I made sure to purchase my appliances from Lowe's when they were running a rebate through GE. I also sued a 10% off coupon to help lower the price even more. I'd definitely recommend trying to get the best deal possible because the Profile series from GE does run quite a bit higher than most other brands. I think you get a prettier product, but not necessarily a better one. Hope this helps you make your decision.

Have a 2 year old side by side GE profile, it started to get warmer and running constantly. Had the repairman come out to look at it, he said the condensing coil is leaking. The fix would be replace the compressor, condensing coil and evaporator coil the whole sealed unit. I asked the repairman isn't this unusual for a frig to be only 2 years old and have this type of problem. He said because I live by the ocean in an corrosive environment this is the reason this happened. I mentioned to him that I had a 15 year old Whirlpool refrigerator in the utility room that has been running just find all this time. The only good thing out of this is that problem in the sealed unit is covered under a 5 year warranty.

Buy GE Profile 259 Cu Ft Side-by-Side Refrigerator with Thru-the-Doo Now

If you search on the Internet you will find lots of people, including myself who have purchased these side-by-side GE refrigerator/freezers and have problems with the shelving constantly collapsing and sending your food tumbling out of the unit when you open the door. This is clearly a design flaw. They made the shelves too narrow and they will fall in between the notches that are meant to hold them. AVOID!

Kitchen Aid, Whirlpool, Sears, Kenmore Pump Drive Coupler 285753 285753A 285753T

Kitchen Aid, Whirlpool, Sears, Kenmore Pump Drive Coupler 285753 285753A 285753T
  • If unsure, please ask your seller if it fits your model

My washer is 12 years old, and the original recently broke. I purchased and installed 2 of these after market couplers within 1 month. The first one broke during the first wash cycle with a very light load. The second lasted about 3 weeks, and snapped during a rinse cycle. This time, after reading the reviews here (didn't purchase the knockoffs here), I went to Sears and paid $20 for an OEM coupler. (needed it asap) Totally different plastics!! Both have the metal insert, but the EOM part is a harder plastic, and also a different color...tinged a greenish color. You can find the OEM online for cheaper than Sears, but total cost depends on shipping. Like others have said, don't waste your time and money on a $5 coupler. It's not worth the aggravation of tearing the washer apart multiple times to replace it. Spend the extra $$ and do the job once!! $20 is still a lot cheaper than what a service call costs. I watched the utube video's and did it myself, was easier than I imagined. I'm a 52 yr old female.

As others have stated, this part features a metal inner sleeve that came loose after just one use, rendering the washer once again unable to function. Save your money and time and steer clear of this part!

I've had to replace the coupling twice thinking that I had something else wrong with the washer. Turns out it's just the coupling that kept failing. I'm ordering the 285753 without the A to make sure I get an OEM that doesn't use cheap plastic. Wish I would have discovered the issue was with the coupling and not my washer begore ordering it a third time with Saturday delivery.

On the bright side, I've performed a full overhaul on my 15 year old washer. Hope to get another 15 out of it.

I replaced the broken coupler in my 13-year-old Kenmore washing machine with this one. Would give it 5 stars except for a couple of niggles:

the new one has a metal collar while the original was just molded plastic. Not sure which one is better, but presumably the metal collar provides a tighter fit and is more resilient (Some reviewers have complained that the metal clamp breaks free of the plastic, so I may update this review at some point if that happens to me.)

the black rubber isolation coupling appears to be less sturdy than the original. It's slightly smaller in diameter than the old one I removed, so the holes where the couplers go in seem a bit flimsy at the top (close to the outer circumference). Again, not sure how much that matters.

Regardless, it does the job. For under 4 dollars + watching some DIY videos on YouTube + 2 hours of manual labor, I was able to get the old washing machine running as good as new.

Actually worked for a few month, but now the white plastic part broke. It's cheap, but doesn't appear to be very reliable. Not worth the effort.

Supco RIM943 Replacement for Whirlpool 4317943

Supco RIM943 Replacement for Whirlpool 4317943Let's start with the good. The ice maker works, and I have ice again.... great.

HOWEVER. I was really unsatisfied with the seller. Upon receiving the item I realized there were only two power cords, and as you can see from the image it should have 3. Of course the missing one was the one I needed. When I brought this to the attention of the seller I was told 'We sent you everything we had' and 'we can special order you the piece you need' (for a price). I got them my fridge model number and was told it would be 2-3 weeks for a special order.

I ended up going elsewhere to get the power cord and had it delivered in 2 days. The item pictured is NOT what they are selling.

This icemaker is a (nearly) perfect match for less than half the price of the Sears replacement part. I was pleasantly surprised that even my old MAX ice accelerator unit fit perfectly. I had to remove the clips from my original with a pair of pliers, but the clips and unit fit right on. My only problem was the positioning of the lower screw support. Surprisingly, even though everything matched my original (even the color and special markings), I had to trim the lower support for it to fit over the ice container track. Also, be sure to remove the tab at the back of the unit where the water enters the tray. The plastic is scored, but I had to use scissors to remove the tab. You'll know what I mean when you see it!

Installing the ice maker is not Rocket Science. The hardest thing is likely to be cleaning out your freezer. You need to 1) clean out your freezer and put frozen food in an ice chest. 2) Find ice maker water shut off tap and turn water off may be under sink next to sink water shut offs. 3) Unplug refrigerator water and electricity do not mix. 4) Unplug ice maker electrical connection. This can be hard because the old one has been in there for years. You can end up skinning your knuckles. Try two sets of pliers pulling in opposite directions. Work it slowly because you do not want to damage the connector that goes into the fridge. 5) Using a flat blade screw driver and a set of hex drivers remove old ice maker remove screw below ice maker. take out or loosen hex head screws above ice maker. If you loosen the hex heads you should be able to slide the old ice maker up however the water inlet in the back may block the ice maker from moving up. Work with it! SAVE THE OLD SCREWS!!! 6) The kit comes with a selection of wiring harnesses select the one that looks like your old one and plug it into the new ice maker. There should be a wire with a plastic sleeve on it that fits into a clip behind the new ice maker. This is to hold the harness out of the way. 7) There is a new plastic piece that comes with the ice maker. It has two holes in it at right angles to each other. It comes with one screw. Use this to screw the plastic piece to the new ice maker. It can be a loose fit. Look at how the corresponding piece was fastened on the old one. 8) There is a U shaped indent in the top back of the ice maker. On mine this had to be cut out to fit the water inlet into the ice maker. Your model MAY be different see how it was on the old one. Using a sharp (hobby) knife cut this piece out. If you try to break it out with a set of pliers you make break it careful! 9) Connect the wiring harness (connected to the ice maker) to the plug in the back of the freezer. 10) The new ice maker should slide down over the hex head screws that were left in the side of the freezer. You may have trouble getting it on with the water connection sticking out. If so remove the back hex head screw. Once you have it in place with the front screw into the slot you can replace the back hex head screw and finger tighten it. 11) Put the bottom screw in and tighten all three. 12) Plug in refrigerator. 13) Turn on ice maker water tap. 14) Put frozen food back in freezer. All done! Freezer will have to get cold before it starts making ice.

Installation was easy and it made ice for about a week. Then it began making a horrible noise so I called and they gave me some other number. A very nice man on the other end said: oh, it must have been dropped and if the (somethingoranother) is bent, it'll make that noise. I'll send you another one. And he did. And this one worked for about 2 weeks and then the entire refrigerator began vibrating and sounded like a jackhammer. Called the seller again and was told it was ordered in May and the warranty was up. They didn't know about the second unit and didn't care, then I was told to have a nice day and they hung up.

Liebherr CS1360 13 cu. ft. Counter-Depth Bottom-Freezer Refrigerator, Ice Maker Right Hinge

Liebherr CS1360 13 cu. ft. Counter-Depth Bottom-Freezer Refrigerator, Ice Maker Right HingeI bought the CS 1360 a couple years ago. I live in Manhattan and was initially impressed by it's compactness and storage space. In the 2 years i've had it, the fridge has broken several times. The heating tube broke, then the sensor broke (twice!), then the ice maker broke.

Liebherr contracts out servicing to a servicing company in Arizona, this company then in term sub contracts to local repair shops, many of whom were not trained properly. I was told by one of the service guys that it broke again because the part was never installed properly by the previous service guy.

The ice maker broke again after the warranty runs out the customer service was not helpful at all, and flat out treated it like it's not their problem. He did recommend a local repair shop, who told me Liehberr services in generally is much more expensive than other appliances. Flat $175 just for the guy to come take a look, any parts or installation fees will be on top that.

All in all, this is a terrible fridge and i would not recommend to anyone. Will never purchase any products from the company again.

This review is for CS1301, the previous generation of the same Liebherr refrigerator which I bought 4 years ago. 2 1/2 years after my purchase, the freezer failed to freeze. Since it was out of the short 1-year factory warranty I had to paid for the service referred to by the Liebherr customer service hot line. That service call was $850 to replace a sensor and fan. For that much money I could have bought a brand new stainless steel LG fridge of a larger capacity!

A few months later the icemaker broke. The replacement ice tray assembly (which I ordered directly from Liebherr) cost $110. The new tray lasted about 2 months before it broke again.

I am totally disappointed with Liebherr product quality. I wish I had not chosen the product solely by its good looks. But the fact is, Liebherr is a niche player in the US and there is very limited review of its product quality. I simply did not have much data to base an informed buying decision on and took a chance on Liebherr. That turns out to be an expensive mistake.

Extremely expensive product that stops working properly after 2 years. Frost started to build up in the back panel of my freezer, called the customer service who said the warranty is only 2 years and only the closed loop system is covered up to 5 years. He promptly said the problem is unlikely the closed loop system because the freezer is cooling and said good luck. You pay 5 times the price to have things break in 2 years with no warranty. HORRIBLE.

This fridge is garbage.

Purchased and finish would not clean. We were told, by Liebherr customer service, the unit only had a partial factory finish and it was necessary for us to use the small bottle included to do the final finish.

It really is as insane as this sounds.

Have tried a dozen different cleaners and the unit will not hold a clean finish. Despite having paid $3000+ for this unit (Canada where they screw you) I look forward to replacing it.

This unit and the brand was a big disappointment, if I ever bought this brand again my wife would surely leave me.

Will give this fridge to some unlucky person at Goodwill, it is not something I would sell given the problems.

Want Liebherr CS1360 13 cu. ft. Counter-Depth Bottom-Freezer Refrigerator, Ice Maker Right Hinge Discount?

We got a CS 1350 and have thus far spent multiple times what it cost to buy fixing it. Liebherr service are totally uninterested in helping, always have been. If you leave the freezer door open for longer than intended (accident etc) it frosts up, the frost / ice breaks the evaporator sensor and voila hello a $500 service call.

Its the most touchy, nervy appliance I ever saw.
