Watts K-1 Polyethylene Icemaker Kit, 25-Feet

I got this kit to run a water line from my kitchen sink to my refrigerator's ice maker. I am not a plumber, but I do understand the basic concepts of plumbing and have tackled a few small plumbing jobs. The included instructions are not the best if you need to be walked through every little step, but if you have an experience level similar to me you should be able to get through it.

The kit I got had slightly different pieces than what is in the product picture, however it did have everything I needed. The picture shows 2 nuts and some washers to go on the bolts that hold the two pieces of the saddle together. In the kit I received there were no nuts or washers because the nuts are actually welded to the bottom part of the saddle and the bolts just screw directly into them. All other pieces were the same.

According to the instructions the self-tapping saddle valve that comes with this kit can only be used to tap into a supply line that is 3/8" to 1-3/8" plastic or copper so make sure and check the size and material of the line you will tap into if you plan on using this valve. My sink line is mostly the flexible stainless steel, but fortunately there was about a foot of copper pipe between that and the faucet which I was able to tap into. The one problem I had with this kit was with threading the saddle onto the tap-valve. If you look at the product picture it shows the T-valve already has half of the "saddle" on it, but mine came with that saddle part separate. You are suppose to be able to just screw that saddle on the tap-valve (it's already threaded so should not be an issue), however the hole in the saddle was slightly too small. I had to take a pair of vice-grips and and adjustable wrench and man-handle the thing on. After a good bit of elbow grease I was able to finally get it on, though, and after that installing the valve was very easy. After you tighten the saddle around the pipe (and put the included rubber gasket below the T-valve), you simply start turning the T-valve clockwise as far as it will go and there is a spike inside that pierces the supply line. It was so easy that I did not even feel it going into the pipe and actually thought at first it wasn't going down far enough to pierce it. When I turned the valve back the other way, though, water started flowing just like it should.

Then it was just a matter of running the plastic line to my fridge and using the included supplies to connect it. I used plumbers tape on all the threads just as a precaution, but supposedly you do not have to if you don't want to.

I would again caution anyone who wants a clear step-by-step guide from this kit, but I think as long as you have a basic understanding of plumbing you will be OK. I am giving it 4 stars due to the saddle valve issue and since the instructions could be better. For the price, though, I think this is hard to beat.

The local HD was charging a lot more for this same kit so I came here. This installed without a problem, saddle valve seems like it'll hold up. A common problem I've seen with the valves is they start leaking after they've been used (open/closed) a lot so only time will tell if the 7$ was worth it. It's about the same quality you would find from any kit in the sub 20$ price range. I prefer polyethylene over copper because it's easier to work with needing to move fridge in and away from wall primarily. You also wont have the copper taste with poly likewise I noticed no real plastic or unusual tastes with this. If you wanted to do it right you could probably get a better PEX line, or even go with braided/SS. But, it probably won't pay off I expect this to last the life of the fridge.

I got this on time but when I got everything hooked up it leaked at the refrigerator. Had to buy some extra fittings and then it still leaked. Come to find out that the tubing is not a true 1/4 inch so the fittings they sent in the kit let the water leak out. Went back to the store and bought more tubing and did it all over again and now it works. The only thing that did work was the saddle piece that you attach to the water supply. Would not recommend this to anybody.

I would spend a little extra money and buy the pieces seperately. The hose is very low end. I would go braided stainless or copper and I would not use that hole puncture connection piece. I would just get a some kind of t valve.

Water Sentinel WSB-1 Refrigerator Replacement Filter

Ordered this as an alternative to the more expensive CS-52 by 3M. Seems to work as well, but it took forever to flush the filter to get all the carbon fines from coming out -way more than I ever had to with the CS-52 filter. Once I was able to get the filter flushed out to my satisfaction, it seems well enough as an alternative.

Very pleased with these replacements, since changing the filter should be done every three months and they are half the price of the manufacturer's filters.

Frigidaire 5303931775 Coil Kit for Washer, Dryer and Range

Great price and a painless perfect fix. My dryer would make heat for a few minutes then run cool for the rest of he cycle. We could here a faint clicking noise from the gas valve area. The other reviews for this part all suggested similar symptoms with success of repair after coil replacement. A quick 2 min video on YouTube is worth the time to show the easy task of getting to the gas valve.

This solved my problem with the gas dryer not staying hot. It would ignite, burn for a few seconds and then go out. Best repair ever!

I'm not sure how it happened, but I ordered this on Sunday and it arrived on Monday, very impressed!

Personal Mini Fridge Cooler / Warmer BLACK

I thought that this would be a good gift for my brother-in-law's home office. He always likes a cool drink at hand. First of all I didn't particularly care about the condition when it arrived. It definitely didn't look new with a number of fingernail scratches on the top in the handle area although the box it came in seemed unmolested and the packing seemed original. The black finish also looked hazy. This product is also billed as an "office" cooler but the inside caution sheet said that it had to be turned off after a few hours "or damage will occur". Their description here at Amazon says 10 hours but I don't recall seeing that when I ordered this as a Christmas gift. So you have to babysit this thing all day to make sure it doesn't die? Not much of a "office" cooler. It is also a bit noisy with the fan in the back being loud. It uses the same fan as your average computer case so you'd think it would be about as loud as that. But it's louder.

Overall, I wouldn't do this product again for what I intended, keeping drinks cool at the office. Maybe for the car or something but it's really kind of stupid design for that use.

Unbelievable. My wife and I needed something on the same floor as our baby's room. And then after about 3 months of use, IT CAUGHT ON FIRE!!! We had a dinner party and I smelled smoke! It was just about to burst into flames and I caught it. It made some kind of high-pitched buzzing noise and then lit up like a fuse. Good thing it was 6P in the afternoon! Craziness. And the sh-t is made in China, so good luck getting a refund.

They don't make it very clear, but there IS a time limit on this mini fridge. It says in Amazon's listing that you can't run it for more than 10 hours or "damage may occur." It should be made more obvious in the packaging and labeling that you can only use it for short times. I think 10 hours is being generous, since performance seems to slow earlier than that. Works okay for very short times, but that's all.

Although it is exactly the size as advertised, I was a bit surprised at how small it was. I wanted something a bit bigger. However, I am finding I prefer its small stature. It is perfect for use in my office as it fits nearly anywhere and also great for travel, which I do quite frequently. It keeps my son's milk cold enough, which is why I purchased it. I have not yet used the heating feature. Just be careful: the black box on the cord can get hot.

Haier HC125FVS - 125-Can Beverage Center, Black

• 4 full width black vinyl coated wire shelves
• Flip shelf for tall bottle
• Holds 125- 12-Ounce Cans
• Automatic interior light; auto-defrost
• Security lock and key

I am extremely disappointed in this refrigerator/beverage center, HC125FVS. I purchased it at a local "big-name" store. Firstly, the drinks on the top shelf never got really cold, and the temperatures varied greatly from one shelf to the next. I have 4 thermometers, and this is what the temperature degree results were at for the 7th (coldest setting) 6th setting (2nd coldest):

Top: 45-55

3rd: 40-45

2nd: 35-40

small bottom shelf: 30-35

There was an ongoing variance of 5 degrees per shelf. Also keep in mind that the average refrigerator should be at 35-40 degrees MAX.

I called Haier and the agent told me that 125 cans is the maximum and they do not recommend filling the center to capacity to allow the air to flow freely. (Then why advertise it as a 125-can center???) I had it only about 2/3 full of cans anyway, and there is no fan in the unit to circulate the air, so how can the air flow freely? No wonder there is such a temperature variance. (Go figure.) I decided to hold onto it for a little while longer to see if I did get any satisfaction out of it. (The only thing that made me really happy was that it freed up a lot of precious space in my main refrigerator.) So, I held onto it for a few more weeks.

The straw that broke the camel's back is that it is also advertised on the box to have auto-defrost. After I had it for about 2 months, it developed a thick layer of frost, and it never auto-defrosted. The manual made no mention of the auto-defrost and how it is supposed to work. So, I called Haier America and asked why it had not defrosted yet. I spoke with two different agents and both told me that they did not see auto-defrost as one of the options on this refrigerator. (Go figure, again.)

Oh, one more thing. This center was constantly running. Although it has been a hot summer, my electric bills have never been above $190 in all the years that I have lived in this house. I was shocked when my electric bill went from $170 one month to $260 the next month after the first use of this center. My next electric bill should be coming soon, and I am bracing myself. Although I cannot say 100% sure that this center contributed greatly to the big jump in my bill, but when I turned it off, my electric meter's wheel slowed down quite a bit.

It is going back to the store this weekend. Thank goodness I can return it after 2 months to my local store...

Well, I hope you find this review helpful.

P.S. I just ordered a Danby Designer 4.4 Cu ft compact refrigerator that it is Energy Star rated. I have seen great feedback (4.63 stars out of 5)on the Danby from over 40 reviews, and I have my fingers crossed that it works better. It's also 0.4 cu ft bigger than the Haier...

UPDATE: After I stopped using this beverage center, my electric bill went back down to normal levels on my October 2008 bill. I got the Danby, and I am so much happier with the Danby. Its auto-defrost works and it is energy efficient, which is the opposite of this Haier.

UPDATE 7/9/09: It's the following summer, and I still love the Danby. My electric bills are still at their usual levels of $170-$190. Therefore, I am convinced the Haier is the reason for the jump in my bill last year. As I previously mentioned, the Haier was running constantly.

I shopped for several different brands and models of beverage centers in this price range and initially bought a Whirpool model from Lowe's. I was very disappointed in the uneven cooling as the unit had the thermostat sensor mounted on the bottom side. This wasn't acceptable and certainly seems a design flaw in the Whirpool.Therefore, the bottom would cool to around 42, but the top was 55 degrees! Be careful as it seems that some of these units are actually better intended for wine coolers than canned drinks since they don't cool as much as a refrigerator. All that seems to differ in some of those units is the type of racks for cans or wine bottles. I returned the Whirpool and got the Haier at Sams Club and can't believe the difference. It's made like a regular compact refrigerator but with more interior space. The thermostat is mechanical rather than digital so it is seems much better. Also the sensor is mounted in the top where it should be. The unit is cooling great and staying around 34-40 degrees fully loaded with it set on 6. The coolest setting is 7. At that temperature, it is safe to use as an extra refrigerator if you don't have many cans. The shelving is also handy with two that have flip tops to allow taller bottle placement. I couldn't be happier with this center. Please note the description below doesn't seem accurate and may be referring to a wine cooler or smaller beverage center. The unit weighs around 77 pounds.

I have this Haier HC125FVS for less than five years old. It stop working, The unit makes click noise but the compressor does not start and its very hot. I think the compressor is bad. So I called customer service for the warranty service, but they will not come and check the compressor which has five years warranty. They want me to call Appliance repair company and pay for the opinion that the compressor is bad, than they will send the compressor and I have to pay for the compressor installation, which will be more than the actual cost of buying new unit. So, technically this company warranty of the compressor for five years is useless. I will never buy any product made by this Haier company.

We use this beverage center for displaying/selling soda at our business. Its small enough to sit on the counter at eye level and holds a ton of soda! Keeps them cold too! Make sure to read the instructions regarding temp levels and you should be happy with its cooling capabilities.

The first beverage center we received was broken. The drip tray was broken along with the inside plastic that held the racks, the door was off, and the side was smashed in. Amazon shipped us another one and this was fine except for a small dent on the side, but after seeing the delivery man dragging it down my front steps I understand why. Otherwise we have enjoyed having this machine stocked and keeping drinks cold. You cannot turn it all the way up because it freezes the cans but keeping it on the normal "5" setting keeps the drinks cold enough. I would recommend if you can find this item locally go and pick it up yourself to avoid the delivery man dragging it down the steps.

Purenex 1M-4PK 1-Micron Sediment Water Filter Cartridge, 4-Pack

The item says "1 MICRON" in huge yellow letters, under that a in blue smaller print "2 LAYERS NOMINAL FILTRATION", then in tiny light grey letters it says "1st Layer 10 Micron Inner layer 5 Micron".

I am not too upset, they were only 10$.

Living in the country does have its draw backs. We started with iron water and then put in a cistern to collect rain water. It did have one problem which was some soil and leaves which were not trapped by the initial filter. But the 1 Micron filter clarified the rain water and we are absolutely spoiled to have rain water to wash dishes and clothes. The most wonderful thing about these filters is when you take a shower the water is actual clean rain water which leaves your skin and hair soft and your shower sparkling.

I selected Complete Filtration Systems from Amazon's marketplace vendors for my 4-pack. I received 4 Flow-Pro FPMB1-978 1 micron filters. I was pleasantly surprised that this part number has an NSF symbol on it. This filter is for my well water since I live in a rural area. It is replacing an Aqua Pure 5 micron filter that did a pretty good job of removing iron sediment from my well water for 9 months. The Aqua Pure cost me $15 at the local plumbing store.

Prior to the Aqua Pure 5 micron, I had a GE FXUSC 30-50 micron filter but it barely lasted 3 months.

I'll see how long the Flow-Pro lasts. I'm especially curious about how much of a flow reduction I am going to see in the next few months, since the Aqua Pure 5 micron was pretty consistent throughout its service life. At the price of $10 for 4 filters, I can afford to change a filter as often as every 3 months.

3-month update: my circa-1982 well/pump was on its way out, yet completely filled up two of these filters in the past 2 months when I overpumped the well a few times this summer. Now I'm on the 4th filter after replacing my 1-hp well pump. The filters would have lasted much longer if my well wasn't having iron/silt and pump issues. I'm still very satisfied with these filters, and just ordered another 4-pack. It's nice to have clear water coming out of the faucets and showerheads.

I bought this for my RO system which has clear containment covers so you can look at your filters and judge the need to swap them. At this price, having clean water is dirt cheap.

Other than the great price, a major pro is that each filter is individually wrapped, then the 4 are re-wrapped keeping things clean. I'm uploading a picture of the 3 filters I changed in my R.O. system after just 6 months. That doesn't seem like a long time, but please look at the uploaded photo to see the importance of changing filters regularly, including the 1 micron and the carbon block filters.

My only regret is that amazon does not stock a complete 5 micron / 1 micron 4 pack set because most all water filters start with a 5 micron to get rid of the pipe buildup, scale, and the junk the city sends you. Then they pass through a 1 micron later (along with perhaps a carbon block) to protect the r.o. membrane. So to do an effective change you really need both 5 micron and 1 micron in the same quantity for any water filter (air filters can also use these on high pressure / flow compressor installations which makes them very flexible as a filter media)

At the same time I bought a carbon block for my 3 "bulk" filter stages which really do need changing every 6 months.Watts 202000 10-Inch 5-Micron for Multi-Cartridge Whole House Water Filter with Solid Block Activated Carbon

A kit with a 5 micron, the carbon block, and a 1 micron would really be nice as it would deal with 90% of the RO systems 6 month change intervals. My in line TDS meter has gone from 4 ppm output to 14 ppm so I know its time to change numerically also. Someone should kit together the 3 pieces needed for most RO systems as they are cheap and simple to buy.

Dyson DC07 DC14 Low-reach Attachment Tool

After reading the reviews for this attachment for other Dyson models I felt I had to give it a try. I hated lugging the vacuum around in the kitchen because the footprint is just too big & clumsy to navigate around the kitchen furniture. This attachment does a superb job on vinyl & wood with the bristles extended. It reaches in between cabinet doors & the floor and under built-in appliances like the dishwasher. It also gets under the fridge where the main Dyson foot does not fit. It also does a great job on the stairs with the bristles retracted it really grabs the carpet with a tight seal!

My first complaint: Although the head swivels quite a bit to get into tight spots it doesn't swivel quite enough. I had a hard time getting between the side of my free-standing stove & the wall. I twisted every which way I could but could not maintain a seal at the very back corner.

My second complaint is that many of the attachments for the DC15 require the wand to be reversed leaving a very poorly designed "up-side-down" & uncomfortable handle to vacuum with (unless I'm doing somethig wrong? It comes with NO instructions so we made it fit the only way we could :). I have no idea why Dyson designed the vac this way it should have been obvious that this is an uncomfortable way of assembling the attachments.

We ordered this item direct from Dyson because we couldn't tell if the Amazon version would fit our vacuum. This attachment fits ONLY the DC15 don't order the wrong one!

Overall, since I love my Dyson, I have to give the attachment 4 stars. I'm glad I bought this item because now that I have it, I wouldn't want to be without it. Dyson should include this attachment with the vacuum -it's a pricey addition at $50 plus shipping!

I bought this to get under the bed and under other low objects. It took out tons of dust from under my bed. It works great. There is no "grooming" of the carpet, because there is not a rotating brush, but the suction is great and it will get all the junk under low things.
