Whirlpool 2186494B Filter Cap



Replacement for fridge
It is just like the original which broke one day because the filter was hard to remove and I got frustrated and grabbed the channel locks and got the damned thing out of there.

Good it covers an eyesore for me!!!
My husband broke the original one taking out a filter and I didn't like how it looked without the cover and I was ordering new filters from Amazon and there it was right on the same page!!!! I just love Amazon!!!!!!!

As stated
This housing works fine so far, I hope it holds up. No reason to think it won't but it is plastic after all and those filters can be difficult to get out sometimes. For the price these caps should last a life time. My original only lasted a few years when it only got used twice a year.

Hoover 40130050 Allergen Cartridge Filter



Not exactly a fit...
The part I received is not the same as the picture, but an off brand, so beware what people may be sending you. I ordered this product on Amazon after finding that all of the local stores like Target, Walmart, Shopko, etc no longer carried replacement filters for our vac. The filter seems to work okay, but it is not exactly the same quality or type of plastic as the previous genuine hoover filters I used in the past. It was difficult to get on the top mount, but went on with what seemed an excessive amount of force followed by a snapping sound that is usually associated with breaking plastic. Everything seemed solid and it works though, and I could find no cracks in the vacuum part.

Not an official Hoover part. I got a knock-off brand!
The product name says Hoover and the picture is an official Hoover product, but I received a third party replacement part. This is false advertising. I am returning it. Shame on Amazon for doing this. Change the picture to the product you are shipping.

Junk 3rd party filte...replace or I am returning it
Follow-up Edit :
I received the replacement which is indeed a genuine Hoover filter. I didn't have to pay any additional shipping either. The situation has been resolved to my satisfaction. I would also like to reflect on that GoVaccum has acted professionally and have been willing and done everything they could to remedy the situation.

The rating does stay at 3 stars though, as the review is as much about the overall shopping experience as it is about the product itself.

Edit 2/16/2009
Received an email from GoVaccuum on this issue. Per them, it's not their fault but Amazon's fault as the order was fulfilled by Amazon. Nevertheless, they have offerred to remedy the situation by sending a genuine Hoover filter. It was recently shipped so I haven't received it yet. Will post a follow-up once I receive the Genuine filter. So far, GoVaccuum has been willing and acting to remedy the situation. So I am changing my rating from 1 star to 3 star. I will review...

Bissell Twist'n Snap 14' Attachment Hose



Good Replacement
I received the hose after only a few days and replaced the origional broken hose. The new hose attached exactly as it was supposed to but when I stowed it on the vacuum for storage it was noticably looser than the origional. It doesn't fall off of the hooks but is more easily knocked off. The hose may be loose when stowed because it also seems the hose will stretch slightly further than the origional and is also more flexible which is a plus!

Great replacement hose
My old hose got dented and then the hose would close shut when you turn on the vacuum. Got this replacement, it fits and works great. It's just a tad longer than the old hose, but that helps me out because I use the vacuum on my car in the driveway to get rid of the dog hair embedded in the seats. So glad there was a replacement hose available because if I didn't have this vacuum, I'd never have a dog.

Perfect Fit!
Our needed replacing due to a kink in the hose and this one was perfect! All smiles from this purchaser.

Maytag Refrigerator Icemaker Ice Maker & Water Valve 61005273



Not a good OEM replacement
Bought this to replace the valve on an older Magic Chef RB193TM model refrigerator. In order to make it work, I would have had to get a new longer water line running to the ice maker, plus the mounting bracket only had one screw hole whereas my old valve was held by two screws. Just not a good original replacement fit. To add insult to injury, I paid to return it, and was docked the original shipping fee, a double whammy.

Exact replacement that works great!
The ice maker water valve was exactly as described and is working perfectly. It is the same OEM part sold elsewhere for at least twice the price.

perfect fit
Fits perfectly and it was easy to install, even for a novice like me. Would recommend to anyone. Great price.

Whirlpool Duet Door Reversal Kit - White



Exactly what it is...
I got this after reversing the door on my dryer and I couldn't be happier. (Well, if the dryer just came with the parts, that would be great.)

It was easy to install and my wife is very pleased (which makes me a happy person.)

LOVE THIS!!
I waited way to long to finally purchase the door reversal. It was very simple to do and I had it done in about half an hour. Me, an old lady, if I can do it anyone can. No more dropping clothes on the floor fighting the door!

It does what it's supposed to
Quick and easy to install. Particularly useful if you're planning on stacking your dryer on top of the washer. Helps to save space.

Nutone QTXN110HL Ultra Silent Bath Fan with Heater and Light 2-60W Lights 7W Nightlight 1500W



met my expectations
I would recommend this product for a small or medium sized bathroom. The combo light-heater-fan-night light is a great feature, don't forget to purchase the multi-function three switch control that goes with it. My handyman installed it and it's been working great so far.

Totally Satisfied
cool unit! Even the electricians and our contractor were impressed with my choice! :] awesome heat when needed (instant) and quiet. must purchase 3 switches to make whole operation easier!

Good but not ULTRA quiet
I`ve had this machine for 6 years plus and the heating element finally died.
Overall i was quite happy with it and its performance.
My biggest question is what the hell is a sone? for sound measurement?
My best guess is the the 0.9 sones equals around 45-49db

Cotton Candy Machine Floss Bubble Shield



must have
I run my cotton candy machine outdoors and this bubble shield is a must have. not only does it help keep the cotton candy from flying out, and keeps bugs from flying in, but the best ting is it keeps kids from reaching in the machine, kids love to stand around and watch cotton candy being made. I view this product as a safety feature with out it I would lose my mind worried about a kid putting there hand in the machine.

A Must Have if you like your room
I cannot imagine why the machine could be sold without the shield? That said, if you have a cotton candy machine, you need this item even if you don't need the expense. As a cotton candy amateur, I really thought I may be wasting money. Then I put the floss in the machine and quickly realized that it would have been in my hair, on the ceiling, on the walls, etc. It really helps shape the "cone" of cotton candy and make for a fun event with far less mess.

cracked/ broke after second use
fit cotton candy machine, serves purpose of containing flying sugar but not very sturdy be careful when repacking for travel
