Viking VCRB5361RSS 36 Inch All-Refrigerator

Viking VCRB5361RSS 36 Inch All-Refrigerator
  • Glass Shelves
  • Cold Zone/Humidity Drawers
  • Plasmacluster Ion Air Purifier
  • Right Hinge Door Swing

I strongly urge anyone thinking about purchasing Viking appliances not to do so. Just over six years ago, I purchased every appliance, including a microwave and barbecue, and I have had nothing but trouble with every one of them. Right now my refrigerator has to be rebuilt ($1,200 in labor). The freezer has gone multiple times. DO NOT BUY VIKING

Danby DAR440BL 4.4-Cubic Foot Designer Compact All Refrigerator, BlackDanby DA

Danby DAR440BL 4.4-Cubic Foot Designer Compact All Refrigerator, Black
  • 4.4-cubic foot counter-height refrigerator with scratch-resistant work top; available in white or black
  • Energy Star rated; mechanical thermostat and automatic defrost
  • Second generation CanStor beverage dispenser; 2-1/2 wire shelves; adjustable door shelving
  • Integrated door handle; reversible door swing; smooth back design
  • Measures 20-3/4 inches wide by 21-1/2 inches deep by 33 inches high

I've found that the "freezer" section of a mini fridge is pretty much a waste of space too small to be really useful, and in constant need of defrosting. The Danby all-fridge is a great addition to my tiny kitchen. It, and a stand-alone freezer, are all I need to keep my food fresh. The veggie crisper actually works, and the can dispenser is a nice touch.

--1 year later--

I've had the fridge for a little over a year now, without a single hitch or glitch. Still a great product!

I went with the positive reviews, ordered the fridge, and hoped that the seller had read the negative reviews that had criticized the packaging of the fridge.

Delighted to see that it was extremely well packaged with heavy crating protection. Fridge is perfect in every way, my last fridge died because of the freezer leaking, so I love the extra space. Great for white wine/beer/and it fits beautifully into the basement alcove. I picked black and honestly really glad I did, because you can't even see it in the alcove. It runs quietly (I even opened the fridge several times because it was so quiet I wanted to make sure it was running!) so both thumbs up on this fridge.

In my hotel room during a recent vacation I was very pleased to see this little refrigerator by Danby. At first it didn't look too special; but I was wrong. It worked very well, keeping my refrigerated items cold without freezing them. Moreover, the adjustable shelves came in handy after I made a couple of trips to a local supermarket; I needed to adjust the shelves to fit everything in. I can't really comment about the adjustable door because of course hotel management probably wouldn't have appreciated me changing the door on them; but I assume you can adjust the door fairly easily. The interior light worked fine.

The shelves weren't quite as deep as I would have liked them to be, but then again it comes with adjustable shelves. I could also put things like foot long sandwiches in at 45 degree angles; that way even a large item can fit inside without a problem.

I would recommend this small refrigerator for offices, college students or anyone who wants a smaller sized refrigerator that does a good job of keeping food cold.

Set of 4 Magnetic Shopping List Memo Pads - Fun Produce Shapes

Set of 4 Magnetic Shopping List Memo Pads - Fun Produce Shapes
  • The original & reliable 'low-tech' method of keeping kitchen, home & family organized
  • Four fun & colorful die-cut shapes: Watermelon, Pineapple, Grocery Bag and Milk Carton
  • Each pad has 60 sheets, 4.5 x 8.5" for grocery list, menu plans, appointment reminders & family note
  • Multiple magnets on back attach firmly to any ferrous metal surface

The paper quality was so poor it curled up. Don't think for a second you will hang this from your refrigerator or be able to use the magnets on the back. They are cute but a waste. When you rip off the first page the entire pad rips from the magnetic back and falls to the floor.

The pads are cute but the first two fell apart as soon as I put them on the fridge via the magnet on the back of the pad. :(

Laguna Clear Fast Pond Water Clarifier - 67.5 Ounces

Laguna Clear Fast Pond Water Clarifier - 67.5 OuncesI have a 750 gallon pond which I am proud to say I setup myself. I was disappointed when my water turned green from the sun. As I had no experience with this before I went searching for something to get rid of the green water. Came to Amazon and I found this, Laguna Clear Fast which really does clear fast. It contains no harmful chemicals to hurt any of the animals that drink from the waterfall nor the birds that at times bathe also where the waterfall is. Green water one day, crystal clear the next. Easy to use and it works. Won't buy any other product except this one.

This is a wonderful product that really helps to keep your pond looking clear and clean. We ordered the product and it arrived ahead of schedule and in great condition.!

This stuff is great. It works fast, and without any negative effects. I have tried a lot of different products (I hate adding anything to the pond, but sometimes you just have to take action.) and this is the safest, smoothest, most stress free product I have used.

We found this product last year when our pond got cloudy and it worked beautifully. I happened to run across it when browsing pond products on amazon and I couldn't believe the price. If I went to the store here to purchase it I would only have gotten 2-8oz bottles. You better believe I couldn't pass it up. This brand works so well I love having it on hand.

Whynter WC28S SNO 28 Bottle Wine Cooler, Platinum with Lock

Whynter WC28S SNO 28 Bottle Wine Cooler, Platinum with Lock
  • Adjustable thermostat for storing different wine varietals (52F - 64F)
  • Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature display
  • Enhanced Blue Light LCD temperature display feature for precise control
  • Cylinder lock and two keys included
  • Solid state components for long life- the only moving parts are fans to circulate cool air within the wine cooler and dissipate heat outside the unit

Ordered this product from Amazon when it returned to stock -price for product with prime shipping (free) plus add-on overnight shipping was under $200.00. Arrived before noon the next day. A great deal.

Unpacked and set-up in family room -took 30 minutes to cool to 58 for red wine (I have a 16-bottle unit that has my whites stored). I've had the unit for four days and it's doing what it should. No sound and temperature on display verified with thermometer placed in unit for two days.

A great thing about the product is that if you would like to upgrade the look of the unit with wood shelves they are available for separate purchase on Amazon. As previous reviewer, I think it looks nice as is once the wine bottles are loaded.

Please note that the included instruction book says to level unit that all legs adjust -however, only the leg under the hinge adjusts (not really a problem).

The only "complaint" with the unit is that, like all the other units I've read about, it does not hold 28 bottles if your collection includes any pinot-size bottles. The unit has slots for the shelving at other levels which is helpful to adjust, but in the end I have taken out one shelf (half of my wines are in pinot-style bottles). I have a few small bottles that I've been able to add on top of the pinot. I would say that even with the lower capacity this is still a great deal.

We purchased the Whynter 28 bottle wine cooler to start our small mid-range collection. From what I have gathered, the no-vibration thermoelectric wine coolers are much more gentle on your wine and easily hit the required temp range. The Whynter unit appeared to be a nice looking unit and had the capacity we were looking for.

We received the product in a much quicker timeframe than we expected. It was a no fuss setup and looked really high-end when we had our bottles in the unit. Couldn't be happier on the price too. Depending on where you situate the unit, it takes less than 25-30 mins to get the internal temperature to an ideal 58F for my reds. The door lock was also a nice bonus, especially with teens at home =)

Very pleased with everything about this purchase. Thanks again for a great shopping experience.

Whynter WC28S SNO 28 Bottle Wine Cooler, Platinum with Lock

This is what I would call a fancy starter wine cooler. Ideal for thermoelectric enthusiast. It easily gets your wines to 10-15 degrees as preferred. Has very decent storage capacity and the shelving is removable as needed. It's not stainless steel but looks better than my previous stainless steel unit. The temperature indicator is accurate and the unit chills fast. Haven't had any need for the lock on the door but I can imagine it would be useful on occasion. It's worked just fine since for me and based on all features and price, I would recommend it.

Haier HVTM06ABS 6-Bottle Wine Cellar with Electronic Controls

Haier HVTM06ABS 6-Bottle Wine Cellar with Electronic ControlsEven though there was only one review on this wine cellar when I bought it, I decided to go ahead and take the chance on this gift for my husband. The other reviewer said that it is really noisy and I would have to disagree somewhat. If you're looking for a refrigerator that is perfectly silent, this is not; however, it is not disturbingly loud. It has a fan that kicks in to keep it cool & it's the equivalent of the hum of a desktop computer. It doesn't bother me since it's in the kitchen with other noisy refrigerators, dish washers, etc. This unit is a great size -holds just the right amount of bottles that you'd want to chill, it is a very sleek design (although the one we received was not all silver like the one in the picture, it has a stainless door but black on the sides/back) and compliments our other appliances. It easily holds 8 bottles and the door closes easily even with wine stoppers in the bottles. I would definitely recommend getting this one with the digital controls it's worth having the ease of temp control with the push of a button & always being able to tell how cold it is. It holds temperature beautifully and we've had no problems with it so far. Cheers!

Right out of the box, it plugs right into the outlet and begins cooling. One of the reviews said that it was way too loud, but mine hardly makes any sound at all. In fact, you forget it's there, it's so quiet. Perhaps that person's cellar was faulty, who knows all I know is, this is a great little cellar and keeps the perfect temperature.

I purchased this as a christmas present for my husband. I agree with many of the posts, it is a little noisy, but not anymore than any refrigerator. It did a great job, made two buck chuck even taste good! But after two months, it stopped cooling, other wise I woud have given it a higher rating, BUT even though it was a pain to have it die, Haier was wonderful to work with. I called them and they did some trouble shooting with me and agreed, the unit was dead. They emailed me a form to put our serial tag on and fa it in. We are waiting now for our new unit. So I have to give it an extra star for good customer service.

04-28-2013 I have lowered this to a 1 star and I am still getting run around from the company about return. I doubt I will ever see my unit or money.

Do not buy from this company!!

05-04-2013 I wrote an email via Amazon's contact page. Amazon was amazing. They sent me a new fridge OVERNIGHT and a return label to return the old unit. Amazon solved the issue for me in 2 days. If you look at BBB, you will Haier has an F rating and huge amounts of the same complaint I had, never resolved. Thank you Amazon for caring about your customers!!

Pro: compact, nice look, and the wine is at the correct temperature, ( 55 F) Con: This cooler is way too loud.

If I knew that the interior fan made that much noise I will no purchase it.

Want Haier HVTM06ABS 6-Bottle Wine Cellar with Electronic Controls Discount?

I was a little apprehensive about purchasing this item based on reviews for other, larger wine cellars by this manufacturer, but I'm very happy that I went with this one. I think the larger cellars might have too much volume for the cooler to keep up, so they don't work as well, but this one seems to keep an even temperature throughout. It looks very nice, with a blue LED on the inside that you can leave on or turn off. The digital controls are easy to use and make it trivial to keep your cellar at whatever temperature you prefer. When you open the door you can see the temperature go up a few degrees, but it only takes a few minutes to go back down to the setpoint. The racks are shaped only for a standard bottle size, but you can put unusually shaped bottles, like champagne bottles, on the bottom and they fit just fine. Also, there's enough clearance that you can still close the door with bottles that have been opened and re-corked inside. Other reviewers complained about the cellar being loud, but I can't even hear it over the sound of my air conditioner. I'm also really happy with the size because it can sit on my kitchen counter without being a nuisance.

Genuine Viking Pa020041 Tytronics 0+4 Spark Module
  • Original Viking Part
  • Not a replacement part
  • TYTRONICS 0+4 SPARK MODULE

I had attempted to purchase this product from two other sources and was provided with "so-called" equivalent items. In one case the item was physically too larger and would have not even fit. Luckily I was able to return the items. The module provided by Dey Parts was precisely as advertized, with free shipping, quick delivery and it works fine... I am completely satisfied.

Whirlpool W10158389 Water Valve for Dishwasher

Whirlpool W10158389 Water Valve for DishwasherThis Whirlpool water valve was a direct replacement for the original and it worked perfectly. I couldn't have been happier.

This worked in replacing the broken water valve on my Whirlpool dishwasher. It seems at least as good as the original. The only problem here is that the original lasted about 4 years before cracking and leaking water under the dishwasher. This is a new part number, so I hope it holds up longer, but only time will tell.

Buy Whirlpool W10158389 Water Valve for Dishwasher Now

Top rating! Part arrived in 1 day, and it fixed a non-working 6 year old DW. For just $25, this water inlet valve kept me from having to buy a $125 motor, or an $800 new DW. So, if your DW is not using water it may be because this simple $25 inlet valve is frozen closed. This valve is easy to install, except you have to pull out the DW and you have to reconnect the DW.

I was starting to have water coming out underneath my dishwasher and even after changing the hoses, there was still a leak. The only other part left to change was the valve. Although Amazon's price was a little more than 3rd party sellers, the product arrived in 1 day and I was able to switch out the part and the leak is now gone. The part matched exactly like the part I replaced in my Whirlpool dishwasher.

GE Refrigerator Dispenser Auger WR17X11705 NEW

GE Refrigerator Dispenser Auger WR17X11705 NEWDEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS PART & SELLER!!!

I ordered this item after I found a broken piece of plastic in with ice cubes dispensed. I did my research on the GE website to make sure this was the right part, and it was. This item is a direct replacement part for GE or Hotpoint ice-maker dispenser. Replacing it was not hard. Just keep in mind that when removing the old one, there is only a plastic nut holding the auger & blades in position, AND THIS NUT IS REVERSE THREAD! So make sure to be careful when removing it, and keep all the blades & white washers in position, so you don't forget how they go back on!!! Shipping was fast & item arrived in great condition!!!

I noticed a big piece of plastic auger had broke off and was on my cup while getting ice from my GE fridge (model: GSS25WGPA BB). I bought this item and quickly google on how to replace the auger. Luckily, there is a great video on youtube and you may search by typing WR17X11705 and click on the 1st video search you get (approx 13 min long). Just follow it through and 20-25 min later (I was taking my time), you'll have a working and clean (since I decided to clean the insides) ice machine! You won't regret getting this replacement from amazon and save money instead of going through GEappliances, as it's the product you'll get, just cheaper!!!
