Electrolux : EI23BC56IS 36 22.6 cu. ft. French Door Refrigerator w/IQ-Touch - Stainless Steel Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My wife and I bought this French door, counter depth Electrolux in late April of this year (2010.) I have to say, I am not happy with this refrigerator at all.
First, it is occasionally very noisy and sounds like popcorn is popping inside. I think this is related to the icemaker, which also doesn't dispense very well at all.
Second, the door design on this unit is terrible. There is a moving weatherseal on the right-hand door that keeps it from just naturally closing. You have to exert a fair amount of force to close it. With the icemaker on the left door (and after years of side-by-side units) the right hand door is the natural one to use to access the fridge. Because of the hinged seal strip, it often doesn't quite close. Why they didn't put the seal on the left door is beyond me. It also doesn't indicate that it is ajar and the icemaker actually makes noise like it is working, but it doesn't engage and dispense ice.
Third and finally, it is extremely easy to cause the freezer baskets to jump out of their mounts and jam up.
I would highly not recommend this unit.

(More customer reviews)This is a great mower if, and only if, you have level ground. It doesn't work worth a crap on hills.... even moderate ones.

Master your lawn with the Husqvarna YTH2242 Lawn Tractor. This maneuverable, sit-down mower features a 42-inch cutting deck that covers a large surface area, allowing you to efficiently cut vast expanses of grass. The mower's pedal-controlled hydrostatic transmission allows for easy maneuverability, even over irregular terrain. With anti-scalp wheels, air-induction technology, cruise control, and other premium features, the YTH2242 provides you with a superior way to service your lawn.
42-Inch Cutting Deck Mows Grass QuicklyIdeal for larger lawns, the YTH2242 is able to mow even the most difficult turf quickly and efficiently. Its 42-inch cutting deck covers large patches of grass, allowing you to trim expansive lawns in minutes. The deck's height is fully adjustable, so you can configure the blades to suit the height of your grass.
Tractor Provides a Clean, Even CutThe tractor also has several features to ensure a clean, even cut. Two anti-scalp wheels on the deck reduce the risk of botching the grass when cutting on uneven terrain. In addition, the tractor features air-induction technology, which uses airflow to lift the grass and helps deliver a cleaner cut. The tractor's back tires have also been optimized for clean cutting: not only do they improve traction, but they also reduce the risk of flattening grass or damaging delicate ground.
Two-Cylinder Engine Delivers Power and ReliabilityThe YTH2242 is powered by a Briggs and Stratton V Twin Engine. The engine is built on a powerful, two-cylinder structure and can deliver up to 22 horsepower. A smart, full-pressure lubrication system keeps the engine as healthy as possible, making sure that it performs reliably with every startup. Also, an hour meter is included to remind you to service your engine at proper intervals.
Hydrostatic Transmission for Easy, Responsive DrivingThanks to its hydrostatic transmission system, the YTH2242 is easy to maneuver and operate. Two separate pedals control forward acceleration and reversing, making it easy to manipulate speed as you drive. Also, the tractor is highly maneuverable; with a narrow turning radius of 18 inches, it is ideal for systematic mowing in rows. A cruise-control feature has also been included, so you can operate the tractor with minimal input or effort.
Built for Comfort and ConvenienceThe YTH2242 has been designed with driver comfort in mind. It has an adjustable, 13-inch high back seat that conforms to your body, ensuring that you are relaxed while driving. A step-through on the side of the tractor allows you to mount and dismount the vehicle easily. There is even a convenient cup holder to hold a drink during longer mowing jobs. The YTH2242 is also outfitted with bright headlights, so you can work when it's dark.
Wide Range of Optional AccessoriesWith the YTH2242, you have access to a wide range of optional accessories that make this mowing tractor useful all year round. It can be fitted with Husqvarna trailers, snow blades, brushes, and more, depending on the season and on your needs. You can also install two-bin and three-bin bagger accessories (sold separately), which help collect grass as you mow to make cleanup much easier. There is also a mulch kit accessory available from Husqvarna, which allows you to turn your clippings into rich, organic fertilizer.
The YTH2242 is by Husqvarna's two-year limited manufacturer's warranty.

Electrolux : EW23BC71IS 36 22.6 cu. ft. Counter-Depth French-Door Refrigerator - Stainless Steel Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We have been on a journey to find a great, stylish and functional counter depth refrigerator. We are replacing a perfectly fine Kitchen Aid side by side that we put in a second home. First, we chose a Samsung side by side, but were not satisfied with it's refrigerator temperature. We set it at 34, but it never seemed cold enough. Milk was never "ice cold" as we were accustomed to. We started monitoring the temperatures, and it was typically around 38-43 degrees. Samsung was unable to remedy this issue, even after sending out a new replacement. Then we chose a GE Profile model, but it was a similar scenario, with wide temperature swings between the setting of 34, and 44 degrees, so a return of the GE was in order after service was unable to remedy it's large temperature swings.
Now, onto the Electrolux. This was a favorite from the start when we were shopping, but we were scared off by some reviews. We decided to go for it anyway, and are pleased with that decision, so far. However, the first one delivered did not cool at all. A service tech was dispatched immediately, and he found that there was a broken line from the compressor, due to damage in shipping, no fault of the unit, and all the refrigerant had escaped. The dealer brought the GE back until another Electrolux could be ordered and delivered.
Upon recieving the second Electrolux, it is performing nicely. Internal temperature is as stated on the Wave Touch Panel at 34 and -4 degrees for the freezer (which, by the way, you can set to show the refrigerator and freezer temps at all times). The units appearance is of good quality, being stainless steel on all sides, sturdy handles, and a modern appearance with Wave Touch Controls, which are easy to use. The doors are simple to align or adjust if needed.
The interior of this unit is 22.6 cu/ft, so as counter depth goes, it is decent. With edgeless glass shelves, ball bearing glides on all drawers, a large temperature controlled drawer with digital programmed settings, 2 good sized slide out bins, and exceptionaly well done LED lighting, this unit's interior is impressive.
We especially like the temperature controlled drawer, which can be adjusted from 28 to 40+ degrees. The drawer is large enough for party platters, and can keep fresh meats at near freezing, or beer can be kept at a very nice 28 degrees, or wines at a favorite selected temperature. The ice maker does take up a fair amount of space, but for ice and water in the door, it is a worth while sacrifice.
The icemaker has had some negative reviews, but so far ours is fine. The cubes are rounded, with a divit. I'm not sure why this is considered "Drink Friendly", but they are nice. One issue is that the cubes seem to come out with some vengence. However, by simply putting your glass or ice bucket close to the dispensing chute...problem solved. We have seen no melted ice puddles in the catch basin. Water dispensing is simple, and functional. We have only had this unit for a few days, so I can't comment on ice production quantity, but it is supposed to be better than most, per Electrolux specifications.
The freezer has 2 deep slide out bins, and 1 shallow one, with dividers and smooth ball bearing slides. One of our wire dividers does not stay in place, but that is no big issue at all. Space is good, and well utilized. Lighting in the freezer is excellent.
If I listen closely, I can hear the unit running, but sound is not obtrusive or noticably louder than any of the other units we have had recently. I would say it is quiet.
Pros: Operates at accurate temperatures set, huge slide out temperature controlled drawer, Exceptionally well done LED lighting and appearance, Wave Touch Controlls, functional use of space. Looks and feels high quality. We finally have really cold milk again.
Cons: High end of price scale, Ice maker takes up some refrigerator space, and some door storage.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The day i got this i was so excited! i set it up in the back yard and waited 3 days for the water to heat up. then i noticed that it was loosing air slowly. my husband mentioned that it might be from the difference in air temperature so i ignored it. there is no way i could have ripped a hole! now a month later it barely stays inflated for a whole day! and i cannot find a hole anywhere.also the heater doesnt work so well at all anymore it just makes the water warm... not hot. im really angry about this because it was very expensive and i feel like i wasted my money.

McLane Gas Edger/Trimmer (801-3.5RP-CA) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have had my McLane edger since 1974. The new ones are built virtually the same as mine with the exception of different wheels. I have had no problems with mine at all. If you take care of things, they will take care of you. I have used this edger just about every Saturday since 1974 and it performs great. I have seen no engineering problems like the previous poster said. Maybe his was assembled incorrectly. Very dependable edger and it will probably last me the rest of my life.

LG : WM2010CW 27 Front-Load Washer with 3.5 cu. ft. Capacity White Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The good: save water and electricity
The bad: serious design defect
We bought this LG washer recently to replace our over-10-year-old washer. We were excited to get this since it looks nice and is energy efficient. It does what it says: use significantly less water and wash clothes clean. However, we found a big problem with the washer. Every time we start the washer, our house water pipes will shake violently for about one minute. The strong vibration occurs on pipes some distance from the water tap and is caused by rapid engaging of the on/off valve of the LG washer as it starts. As we never saw this kind of vibration with our old washer, we contacted LG and a technician came over. It appears that this situation is not unique to us, as the technician had responded to other similar complaints in the area. Furthermore, we were told older houses (>10 year) are more likely to have this kind of air hammering effect. We are concerned that the strong vibration may cause problems in our house water pipes. Not surprisingly, a google search of the problem found that other LG users had complained unknown, repeated leaks in their water pipes, sometimes from behind the wall. Fearful of the leaks in our water pipes, we installed two air hammer arrester and that seems to alleviate the problem. I wish that LG had warned customers of this potentially serious problem.

Homelite HG6000 6,000 Watt 13 HP OHV Portable Generator Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Within two weeks of buying the product as backup power for my large saltwater system, my power went out for six hours. The generator fired up on the second pull and ran everything plus the home A/C with no issues. It is a bit on the loud side, but I think that just makes the neighbors jealous when they're sitting in the dark. I've also ordered a manual transfer switch so I can power 10 house circuits with the generator by simply flipping breakers. Very solid product, well made, easy to move around using the supplied wheel kit and pull bars. Engine start pull is not very difficult either as it seems to have some sort of internal assist.
