This coffee maker WAS great! Now, less than a year later, it switches from Brew mode to Keep Warm ("Ready") mode prematurely before coffee is half brewed. It now delivers "coffee-stained" water that is not too warm. I think the thermostat has gone south because "Ready" light comes on rather quickly now and brewing stops abruptly. Good while it lasted; wasted money in retrospect.

I bought 2 of these at the same time, for a catering service. One burnt out within the first couple weeks, at a job site. I had to run to target and buy a cheap 12-cup coffee maker. It made me look unprofessional. A couple months later, the other one burnt out at another job. I had to drive 25 miles round-trip, to pick-up an older urn I had for a replacement. Again, it made me look unprofessional. DON'T BUY THIS GARBAGE. YOU'LL REGRET IT!

I use 30-100 cup coffee urns regularly for classes that I teach. I purchased two imported Waring Pro 55 cup urns. Just like the other reviews, one of mine malfunctioned after only half a dozen uses, resulting in lightly colored hot water rather than coffee. I have been using WestBend Coffee Urns for many years. You can't kill West Bend coffee urns. I liked the Waring stainless steel because it required much less scrubbing than the aluminum West Bend products. But from now on, my future purchases will be West Bend performance over good looks. My Waring now sits looking pretty but useless, until I place it in my recyling bin, or start using valuable time writing letters to Waring to try to get them to replace it.

I Bought one of these to use for parties. So everybody could have coffee throughout the night. What i really use it for now is to brew tea. I put 15 tea bags in the top and fill to about 50 cups with water and have fresh tea for 3 days. I have had this unit for a year now, and so far no problems. I recommend this unit to any entertainer, or anybody that would like alot of coffee or tea.

BE CAREFUL TANK IS SUPER HOT WHEN ITS BREWING.

We bought this coffee urn for our Church. It gets used once a week and after a few months it no longer perks. It sounds like it's perking, but by the time the ready light comes on, it still looks like stained water and the grounds are still mostly dry. The instruction booklet says to replace the rubber caps at each end of the tube in order for the unit to continue to brew properly. There are no rubber caps and no available parts on-line that I can find! Perhaps we lost the caps??? I don't know, but we can't even replace them! Don't waste your money, this coffee urn is a dud.

Well, I called Grohe and ask them for help after my plumbing was frozen in the January Chicago storm. The tech told me by replacing this along with the check inserts should fixed the problem. No such luck after both parts installed the rough-in is still leaking. Now I have to order the new rough-in and replace everything else.

I agree it's plush and feels great, I'm not too fond of the shedding all over my sheets, but the softness makes that worthwhile. HOWEVER, once again I've received a product from Sunbeam that is defective. One of the controls doesn't register anything but "L". I'm not about to package the whole thing up, haul it to a shipping point or post office and sit and wait for Sunbeam to send it back! Why Sunbeam doesn't spend a little more and do some quality control is beyond me. Sure hope this Sunbeam blanket lasts longer than my previous blankets from Sunbeam.

The blanket is awesome! I love the feel ~ you can't feel the cords throught the blush blanket. Like a cozy fleece cover. Works wonderfully. Easy to use. One of the best purchases I have ever made! Definitely a great blanket!

If you live anywhere cold enough to need an electric blanket, this is the one for you! The texture is soft and snuggy why didn't someone think of this sooner? This blanket makes you feel like you're in a bed and breakfast every time you crawl into bed.

Honest reviews on Sunbeam BW1370-030-772 LoftTec Heated Blanket

I have had a few electric blankets over the years and though they all have done their job warming the bed, I always had a few minor complaints about each of them . The fabric wouldn't stay soft and fluffy, the wires were too noticeable, the controllers were awkward and wouldn't stand up, you had to keep the control up to 10 to get it warm enough etc.

This one, the Loftec Blanket, is wonderfully soft and fluffy,you wouldn't even know wires were in the blanket, and I only use number 3 and it is plenty warm enough. The blanket is thick without being too heavy that I actually feel this one serves as an extra blanket without the blanket even being turned on .

It cost more than I have paid for the others but I think it was well worth it .

This is a great meter. I work in tight places that are difficult to access in most cases, and this meter works extremely well for me. I am a professional commercial HVAC tech and this is my meter of choice. It has all the features I need to get accurate, easy to read values that are critical in my line of work.

If I would change anything on this model it would be the addition of the magnetic hanger (like in some of the other FP models) and the test leads are recessed which I struggled with at first. Rugged and reliable, great meter.

for the price this meter is pretty reasonable. i just got one for an electronics class at school and it works but is not the most accurate. i also noticed that it doesn't have a fuse so if you overload it you overload it and that's it. if you've got the money or need something more professional get a fluke.

Keep it simple stupid has it's merits. This t-stat is just that. I love the back-light that stays on all the time if you set it that way.

I needed a t-stat with adjustable differential and this unit has it.

Easy to read, set, use... Great buy and easy to install.

I broke my Maple Chase thermostat trying to change the fuse and discovered this replacement by Robershaw. If you follow the installation instructions precisely, it works beautifully. I did not have one wire correctly placed at first because I am an idiot and did not move it to the other side of the board to match the color/description. Trouble shooting tips said to look at the wire placement and sure enough I discovered what I had done. As soon as I moved the wire connection, it took off and has worked precisely as described. I never programmed the Maple Chase for 40 years, so I got the the simple one from Robershaw and I am glad that I did. You will like how it lights up when you change the temperature. Neat replacement and priced right too!

Best Deals on Robertshaw RS4110 Heat Pump/Single Stage 1 Heat/1 Cool Digital

I bought this product because it is one of the few thermostats that allow you to set a temperature differential, controlling when the furnace turns on and off. This is especially handy when you have a furnace that cycles frequently when there are small changes in temperature. I own a cabin that is not well insulated and heat loss in the winter occurs faster. My old thermostat would kick on the furnace when there is a slight change in temperature, less than 1 degree. Most common thermostats you buy at the hardware store, do not allow this function. With this thermostat, you can set the exact temperature difference. In my case, I have the difference set at 2 degrees. So if you have the thermostat set to 70, then it will not cycle until the temperature reaches 68. It will heat to 70 and repeat the cycle! This reduces the number to times the furnace has to cycle. It works with heat/air and was easy to install. Excellent product!

Dimplex Cheshire Media Console with 25 Inch Self-trimming Electric Review

Dimplex Cheshire Media Console with 25 Inch Self-trimming Electric Firebox, Mocha, DFP25-M1013
Customer Ratings: 5 stars

This baby is big; 200lbs, heavy and solid, as it should be. The fire place is very realistic and hypnotic, as expected.

Be careful when sliding the fireplace into the cabinet it may scratch or ding the wood trim, but they thoughtfully included a felt tip touch-up pen just in case you make a ding or two. I did and the pen works just fine,

It is made to fit nicely into a corner location, if one chooses that.

Not too difficult to assemble, just take your time. Screw everything tight with a phillips head driver especially the four weird bolts that connect the top piece with the base. This is a very clever concealed construction technique that I have never seen before , but very effective. Two people would be a great help putting it together, as I said it's heavy. A great product, highly recommended, we love it.

Our shipment was received on the day promised with a phone call a couple days ahead from the shipping company confirming delivery. Wonderful... My husband was a little overwhelmed taking all the parts out but I suggested we start little but within a 1/2 hour we had it finished. Wonderful... We moved it into our spot plugged it in and began to enjoy the ambiance of a fireplace. Wonderful... The simulated flame and the glass beads looking like ambers burning. Wonderful... I highly recommend...

As others have said, the heat is not strong, but I didn't need or expect much here in Florida. In reality, if it put out any more heat it would be too much, so if you just want a little heat in one room, this is great and even saves money since you won't have to turn on the Central heat just to get the one room up a couple of degrees. The other thing that is impressive is the Flame-box. It looks really nice and does seem like a real fire, but I would not refer to it as a "fireplace". it really doesn't look like a fireplace but rather like some type of gas fire rising from a bed of golden glass embers. Don't get me wrong it looks great, but unlike the picture, the output is white and golden yellow with no red in the "flames" or "embers".

As for a TV stand, it is very heavy duty and very heavy in weight too. It has no problem holding my 70lb TV and probably could hold heavier, but I think most flat screens weigh less and less so likely no issues. The instructions were also easy to follow and assembly was fast. The only negative is that the top shelf is attached with lightweight cam bolts, so if you tried to lift it by the top shelf I think it would break off. That may be obvious to you, but for me, I always grab the top to move things around, so I'm glad I thought about it instead of learning the hard way.

Lastly, the "Component shelf" is very small. This may not be an issue if you have the newer "micro-slim" components, but if you have the older electronics in big rectangle black metal boxes, you will only be able to fit one thing on the shelf.

Overall a great looking and working unit.

We received the console in one box. Wasn't too hard to remove items. Maybe 9 pieces in all. Only took maybe 45 minutes to set up. My wife loves it. 3 bags of crushed glass was included to place where the logs would have been. Looks great. Looks like a gas fireplace. Very quiet too.

Focused on this brand because of Dimplex's reputation with electric fireplaces.

I was very pleasantly pleased with the media console.

It was solid wood beautifully finished and assembled without any trouble (about an hour).

It is heavy being solid wood, but can be moved fairly easily by one person.

It was delivered to my garage and I unpacked it there and carried the pieces in.

Very happy with the look. The heater is very low BTU but I was not looking for for a heater, just the look.

The remote works well and the heater can be turned off independently if you want.

My wife is happy so I am happy!

Review of Holmes HAOF90-UC Blizzard Oscillating Table Fan

Holmes HAOF90-UC Blizzard Oscillating Table Fan
Customer Ratings: 4 stars
Buy Now
The current trend is to produce noiseless fans; this is a huge drawback for those of us who need white noise, and loud white noise, at that! My little SleepMate white noise machine, while it works fine, simply doesn't produce sound loud enough for actual noise blocking. That's where my search for a new "loud" fan came in. The Holmes HAOF-90UC does the trick. It produces wind sound loud enough to help me sleep through "normal" daytime apartment noises when I need to sleep during the day because of night shift work. There is also no distracting motor or irregular noises, providing it's not oscillating. This fan tucks unobtrusively into a corner, which led me to choose this over the typical noisy big box fans. When I do use it for its intended air circulating purposes, it does an impressive job for its size. I've used this fan regularly for over one year, and it's still working just fine.

I have had 2 of these fans in my son's room for more than a year. He has a stuffy room with no cross ventilation and these fans help quite a bit. I am sure I could make do with just one of them, but having to two on opposite sides of his room makes sleeping more comfortable.

The house has air conditioning but some of the rooms arent as cool as others or are just stuffy. A fan really helps cool off the room and move the AC around the house more efficiently. On days that are not quite warm enough to turn on the AC these fans really make sleeping bearable.

I have them set at opposite sides of the room but I keep meaning to wall mount them. An excellent feature! There is some fan noise but truthfully, it drowns out noise coming from outside his room and I think the *white-noise* quality of it helps him sleep. The loudness of the noise is based on the fan setting.

For the price...this is a great fan. And the size is perffect for small rooms. Add that you can wall mount it and you have an excellent product.

I can attest to what many of the other reviewers are saying: at its lowest setting, this fan is very loud! I suppose you can think of it as white noise, but it's almost loud enough to go beyond that. If you turn the fan up to medium or high, it gets even louder, but really, I don't see any reason to go above the already-powerful low setting in an office or home office setting.

One or two other reviewers have stated that the fan is quiet. Perhaps there is a quality control issue and it depends on the individual fan you end up with.

On the plus side, the fan really does get the air moving. It has a three-year warranty, which is better than a lot of the cheaper or "no-name" fans. I'm keeping this fan. I wonder if it will last 18 years, like the one it's replacing. Remember to check back in 2025 and I will let you know!

This little fan runs great and really moves a lot of air with very little noise. I have had it in my office for a couple of years and often enough it has been left on over a weekend or holiday without any apparent harm. For the price, I don't think you can do any better.

Ok for the price. Nice small footprint and design; however, it's a little noisy on top speed. Basic back/forth motion; and does a good job of moving air. The base is wieghted so it remains stable. I would NOT use it at night while sleeping because of the noise; but it will circulate air in a warm room.

I replaced the lower heating element in our electric hot water heater, it then worked fine, except it would get so hot it would trip the reset button. I looked at the lower thermostat and it looked like it had gotten too hot, somewhat melted. I ordered this replacement, and followed online instructions, it only took about 10-15 minutes start to finish, and the hot water heater works perfect now. I am very happy to have saved the money by doing it myself. This part fits perfect, seems well made, functions as it is supposed to, and is very reasonably priced.
