Swift Green Filters SGF-DSB30 Refrigerator Water Filter, 3-Pack

Swift Green Filters SGF-DSB30 Refrigerator Water Filter, 3-PackI wanted this to be a good filter -with the "greener" manufacturing process and Made in Canada cred -but it leaked in my 28.5 cu ft Samsung refrigerator. Apparently not an adequate replacement for the OEM DA29-00003 filter.

Update: I seem to have been able to get it to seal properly after taking it out and putting it in "backwards" and then taking it out again and putting it in "forwards." Totally random thing to do, but it hasn't leaked in 6 hours. We'll see.

I purchased this filter couple months ago thinking I will save some money. Wrong! the thing it very hard to install and after I got it in, it leaks. replaced with Samsung filter, no problem....Do Not!!!!! buy this filter.

Because of the price difference in this and a standard filter, I gave it a try. I'm not sure that it does as good of a job filtering the water as the last filter we had, that was the brand the manufacturer (Samsung) recommended. The water it provides tastes a little stale.

I've used this model (SGF-DSB30) of filters before with no problem, but this shipment does not fit my Samsung frig.

We have purchsed this filter several times from Amazon. The price is great compared to Lowes, etc. For people having an issue with putting the filter on correctly, follow the directions. I found putting a light film of petrolium jelly on the top ring helps the filter twist easier and always watertight. By the way, I have purchased an OEM filter from Lowes for $39 and had an issue with leaking. The light film takes care of the problem.

Samsung RS263TDRS 26 Cu. Ft. Stainless Steel Side-By-Side Refrigerator - Energy Star

Samsung RS263TDRS 26 Cu. Ft. Stainless Steel Side-By-Side Refrigerator - Energy StarI have owned a Samsung fridge and have had nothing but problems with it. Samsungs I have found out have notoriously had cooling problems especially with the coils freezing. Don't just take my word for it, look up class action on Samsung fridges. I tried repairing this fridge twice with appliance repair companies to no avail. Once your fridge stops properly cooling, it more than likely will cost you less to buy another brand. I hate giving this fridge a bad review as I loved the design of the fridge and Samsung brand products in general but unfortunately they havent really figured out how to make a reliable fridge. For the cost of these appliances, you should get more than a year or so of reliable use.

There are several models involved in the class action, not just my model. So you can judge for yourself on whether you want to purchase a Samsung fridge but I wanted to share my experiences with Samsung brand refrigerators and put the information out there about the known defect.

The compressor makes a loud noise when it runs and is very noticeable. It's noisy. We called out a technician to fix it. He ordered a new "panel" that he said was rattling. They came and changed it and guess what? It's still noisy. The compressor is just a very low grade part and there is no sound insulation around it. Did I mention it's really noisy? I'll be surprised if this thing lasts one year. The buttons on the front panel to change from water to ice and back, don't work very well. I find myself pressing in multiple places multiple times to get what I need and only after bending over, cursing, then just holding my mouth right, the thing will actually switch to what I need. The ice-maker can only be described as an absolute grade-A piece of junk. It always crushes the ice, even though I pressed the button 15 times to switch to non-crushed ice. We called a technician out to look at it and he said "that's just the way it was designed". I wonder from which fictitious university the "engineer" who designed it purchased his diploma. Also, due to poor design, the ice cubes are always stuck together. I think they've tried to take de-humidification (or frost free) to a new level of bad design.

On the plus side, it looks nice. This thing can be analogous to a GM vehicle. Great paint job and looks nice in the garage, however nothing but rattles and squeaks on the road.

I can safely say that this is by far the wost appliance I've ever purchased.

Allavino MWR-1271-SSR 132 Bottle Wine Cellar Refrigerator - Stainless Door Frame

Allavino MWR-1271-SSR 132 Bottle Wine Cellar Refrigerator - Stainless Door Frame
  • Built-in wine cellar with up to 122 bottle capacity
  • Black Cabinet with Stainless Steel Frame glass door. Hinge is on the right. Door is not field reve
  • Security Lock and tinted glass door ensure your collection is kept safe
  • Blue LED lighting beautifully illuminates the interior without the heat created by an incandescent b
  • Roller-glide shelves extend effortlessly minimizing agitation to the wine

WARNING! The capacity of this model is grossly misrepresented and overstated. First, the bottom 2 shelves are shorter than the other 10, so there's no way to put 11 750 ml bottles on either of the bottom 2 shelves. Also, there isn't adequate space between any of the shelves, so when one shelf is full the wood slats bow down and hit the bottles on the shelf below. So when you open one shelf it drags out the shelf below/above. Third, it doesn't fit MANY non-Bordeaux shaped bottles, especially fat bottomed Syrah and Champagne bottles. So you will have to completely remove a shelf in order to fit those types of bottles. By the way, other websites indicate this model only holds 122 bottles. I got 80 into my unit. I would NOT recommend this brand. Really disappointed.

Functions perfectly and looks great! It's very quiet and keeps my vino at just the right temp! I highly recommend.

Maytag MBF1958XEW EcoConserve 18.5 Cu. Ft. White Bottom Freezer Refrigerator - Energy Star

Maytag MBF1958XEW EcoConserve 18.5 Cu. Ft. White Bottom Freezer Refrigerator - Energy Star
  • 5 Spill-Catcher Glass Shelves
  • Gallon Door Storage
  • Glide-Out Freezer Drawer
  • Energy Star Qualified
  • Factory-Installed Icemaker

Had this fridge since Dec 2011 and so far I am satisfied. We had a larger fridge before but I wanted one like this because of my back problem. It seems to hold as much as my other one as long as you organize items according to size and frequency of use. Is very accurate for temperature control as I have placed thermometers in both the freezer and refrigerator. I noticed that my vegetables seem to stay fresher which was a pleasant surprise. I do enjoy being able to open the door and see what I want so much easier than bending over to search

in the dark back reaches of shelves. I find that I don't "loose" leftovers so easily only to find them later spoiled because I forgot they were there. The roll out freezer is so easy to use and even though the icemaker uses alot of space, I work around that by not filling the ice tray completely full and putting some items that are securely packed in the ice bin on the front side..no problem. When items are packed in a box from the grocery, I remove the box and use freezer bags to save space. If you buy alot of boxed prepared foods like dinners and such this freezer may not serve your needs. The glass shelves are easily cleaned as well as the outside. It runs fairly quietly except when it makes ice.

Update: 12/5/2012

Still enjoying this fridge. Just hope it stays trouble free.

We purchased a Maytag refrigerator in July of 2012. It quit working in October. Maytag repairman did not have the replacement compressor that was needed. Home Depot brought us another refrigerator 10 days later. That refrigerator worked until the beginning of May 2013 (7 months later). Home Depot brought us another refrigerator 7 days later. We contacted Maytag after we received the new refrigerator and they were not willing to send us any compensation for aggravation or loss of food. Their customer service to say the least is non-responsive. We will never buy another Maytag refrigerator and we tell everyone we know not buy a Maytag refrigerator. Maytag had to know these refrigerators were defective and they should have recalled them. Home Depot Appliance manager told us there were multiple customers who had issues with these refrigerators.

There are many manufactures of appliances and our advice would be not to buy maytag!

BeerTender VB2158001 T-fal Home Beer-Tap System

BeerTender VB2158001 T-fal Home Beer-Tap System
  • Ready indicator light ensure ideal drinking temperature.
  • Removable stainless steel drip tray.
  • Detachable pouring spout for easy cleaning.
  • Detachable tap handle.
  • Lighted On/Off button

I typically am not even a big Heineken fan, but my wife got this for me, and I figured what the heck. The 5L mini-kegs sell for seventeen bucks at my local grocery store, and you throw one in, let it cool overnight and you are good to go! It's not cheaper than buying 'regular' beer cans/bottles but the novelty, convenience, COLDNESS and a great draft pour are why I usually keep a second (or third) mini-keg in a small refrigerator just in case a party breaks out. The only reason this is not a 5-star review is because you can only get Heineken & Heineken Light currently...I hear Newcastle Brown is in some test markets though, so hopefully that will change soon.

First off I will say that I have always wanted one of these but have always cringed at the price tag, now that the price tags have dropped on virtually all the Beertender models I feel this machine is a worthwhile investment. Besides the price drop another noteworthy update to this device is the fact that now other, non Heineken beers are available to be used with these machines, A VERY BIG PLUS. Go to any good beer store and you'll see differing kegs around, they just need to be 5L or lower & pressurized. I've heard here in MI there's even a couple smaller breweries with mini kegs becoming available (BELLS OBERON!). My next point is this, even with the price drop, stick with this unit. It does the same job as the more expensive Krupps models at a quarter the cost. Hey I admit the digital readout, clock and symbols on the Krupps models make the whole unit look more techy and futuristic but in the end they all cool to the same proper level and all dispense brew at its best. I'm not even a big Heineken fan, I always found it to be sort of skunky, but my bud had one of these and when I tried it I was hooked. There's just no substitute for that true Draught taste. Also if you store your keg in the fridge before you drop it in your Beertender it'll be at optimum temp in a couple hours, not overnight. It's one of the greatest new at home bar devices. Many will swear allegiance to the "kegerator" with its added CO2, gauges and tubes but they're just too big and bulky for me & my bar. This thing is perfect for me, drop in keg, attach tube and drink, SWEET! Don't get lazy and not look for deals on these too, I found one locally new, at a chain store for $55, yeah that's right, for that price you can't go wrong.

Amendment 2/10/10: The Bells style kegs, and other kegs that use the "gravity" style spout (stand keg up and open spout at bottom) do not work with these units, MAJOR BUMMER. As previously stated the kegs have to be 5 Liters or less and be pressurized. Although that brands kegs are not compatible, now there are more choices to choose from than just Heinie, although I've found not everywhere sells them.

The novelty of having "draft beer" on my counter has been a nice edition. As some of the other reviewers have said, I am not a Heineken fan (though I am aiming to try Newcastle next) but this system made the experience much more enjoyable. My theory, and I am not alone on this, is that the bottled version is way over carbonated and this system seems to have the right balance.

My biggest complaint is the lack of availability of accessories and beers. In order to extend beyond 6 rounds (which is typically less than a 12 pack of bottles each) I have to order tubes in packs of 6 at $9.45 per pack plus shipping. When you tack that cost on to the mini-keg cost (around $18-$20) your per beer cost has gone up to almost a bar price (ok, maybe at happy hour).

Will I continue to use it? Probably, the "fresh" beer is too enticing.

At the least Heineken should create a larger pack of these things so I don't have to keep adding up my shipping charges.

I got this unit for father's day and really loved it. You can put a warm kegg and it will cool overnight or just set an already cold kegg and be ready to go.

Mine lasted about 14 months and broke, same problem as all other users, it just quit working. I received an extended one time warranty from T-Fal, which was fine, but the company repairing the unit took 3 1/2 months to fix it, absolutely terrible!

After the unit came back it worked for another 12 months and broke again.

Honestly it would be a best seller and a must have if it wasn't for the reliability issues. From what I read it doesn't matter if you have a T-Fal, like in my case, or Krups, both have the same issue and many unsatisfied customers, and the product isn't cheap.

Heineken as such a famous and powerful company should step up to the plate and take the necessary actions to push those manufacturers to make a better product that continuously works, like any refrigerator. Am I asking too much?

While I would never advocate disobeying the manufacturers recommendations, I bridled at the cost of replacing the tube with each keg. If you look closely at the attachment to the keg itself, the tube is held in place by three locking portions of the rim. Directly above each, is an open slot. If you put a small screwdriver into the slot and gently pry outward, the lock is released and the tube can easily be removed. There is no way to rinse out the tube, but this has not proven necessary. I have reused the tubes many times.

AVANTI 12 BOTTLE WINE COOLER

AVANTI 12 BOTTLE WINE COOLER
  • Stores up to 12 Wine Bottles
  • Innovative Design Allows the Standing or Vertical Storage of up to 4 Open Bottles
  • No Vibration - Bottle Sediment is not Disturbed
  • Curved Glass Door for a Modern and Sylish Look
  • Classic Black Cabinet with Platinum Finished Accents Compliment Any Decor

I've had this wine cooler for a couple of months now. Overall, it does the job it was intended to do. I keep both red and white wines in it, by keeping the temperature at 56F. That's borderline low for red, and borderline high for white, so it's not perfect. But, I was prepared for that because it is a single-zone cooler after all.

My wife and I don't drink that much wine (2 bottles a week, more if we have guests over). I had planned to purchase a second unit, so that we'd have one for red wines, and a separate one for white wines. But, we're happy with the borderline temperature setting so far.

The spacing of the metal racks is barely sufficient for regular-size bottles. We have problems with any wine bottles that are wider or taller than usual, even if they are 750 ml. We end up having to use the space with no racks in order to stack wide bottles directly on top of each other. We can't place any of the longer-necked bottles (some white wines are like that).

My biggest complaint is the fan. It's a lot noisier than I thought, and it seems to cycle on and off very frequently (much noisier and more frequent than our ref). When the house is quiet, it can be disturbing. I have no idea if this cycling will reduce the lifespan of the product.

This cooler is okay. It does the job. It's attractive, quiet, inexpensive, with easy to operate controls. The only problem: setting the display at 60 degrees yields a temperature of 66 degrees. No big deal, just allow for the 6 degree differential at all degree settings. Also being able to place 4 bottles vertical is a nice feature.

The only thing missing is a two zone capability to keep whites and reds at different temps. At the low price I paid guess I could buy another one.

Want AVANTI 12 BOTTLE WINE COOLER Discount?

After doing ALOT of research on wine coolers in all price ranges, I finally chose this one because of the ability to store opened wines upright. This was one of the few in all price ranges that had this feature and its a GREAT feature, and its eye appealing. I have had the cooler for a week now. I drink mostly white, some red wines, and I buy a variety of wines, mostly from grocery stores and some wine places, so the bottles are always different and different sizes. I have 12 different bottles of wine in there right now and they all fit just fine. Obviously you can't get a supersized bottle of wine in there. As for the sound everyone complains about, it is not bad, I have it in my kitchen and when it runs (it doesn't run all the time) I can hear it, but its not any different than the fridge running. I guess keep that in mind if you want it in your living room. The only downfall is the display light, it looks GREAT when its on, but it has a default shut off after 10 minutes. It would be nice if it could stay on longer than that, and its not something you can adjust. The convexity of the front glass and the digital read is very classy and I absolutely love this unit! I keep mine at 50* for my white wines, and it works great. I put this unit underneath a counter, but you have to make sure you have ample room on each side and above for it to vent. It does put out some heat when it runs. I have 4-5 inches on each side, including in the back. I would not recommend for a tightly enclosed space.

The Avanti is a replacement cooler. So far so good. It seems to maintain temps very well and it's an attractive unit. The temperature control and display are on the front and easy to read.

I wouldn't recommend this cooler if noise is an issue. It's a bit noisey when the motor is running. For me that's not a problem bacause it's in a side room. Otherwise I'm pleased with this cooler.

I had bought my gas dryer from someone not knowing they didn't include a lint catcher. Well when I found out it didn't have one I had no idea where to start looking and so someone told me to check Amazon. So I did and I found this product. I bought it not knowing if it would fit or not but I gave it a chance. The shipping was amazingly fast and it fit perfectly inside my dryer. I only clear it out every other time I use my dryer because this item is so big it catches everything and more! Definitely glad I got it!

Filter was packaged very poorly, no protection. Arrived bent and warped. Had to reshape it by hand. However, it does fit and it is the product that was ordered. Based on the cost savings (about 50%), it's difficult to complain about. ;^)

Echo all the shipping commentsthe lint screen arrived a bit folded over on the end farthest from the handle, in the two flat-rate box creation. I was able to straighten out the mesh and it seems to work fine now. Not the same build as the original lint screen, but it seems to work fine catching all the lint. No complaints once installed.

WaterSentinel Replacement for Maytag UKF7003AXX Refrigerator Filter, 3-Pack

WaterSentinel Replacement for Maytag UKF7003AXX Refrigerator Filter, 3-PackProduct seems to be working well and the price is right to say the least. I am hoping to continue you with this product.

We've been buying these filters for over 7+ years. They have always been for "length of use...1 year". All of a sudden there are 6 month versions on the market. I looked carefully to choose what I thought was one like we've always purchased ...a 1 year model. Nothing stated that this was only good for 6 months of filter use. Yes I'm unhappy, but it's too much hassel to send them back, so I'm just going to grip here on this web site! This was not a good deal, for 6 month usage.

I was sorry that the filters didn't work for my refrigerator. It was shown on the packaging that it should work for mine but for some reason I could not get them to work. The folks at this company where great to work with and cheerfully refunded my order. They are a credit to companies selling through Amazon and if I need something else they sell I will gladly order from them. My kudos to them and especially to Elizabeth. Thank you!!!

Wouldn't it be greater if all refrigerators had a more universal fit? They install easy and have a 1-year life. In fact, it's like they have a clock and calendar built into them. ;-)
