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

Honeywell HC-835 Replacement Filter for Robitussin and Vicks Cool Moisture Humidifiers



Bad Idea
I got the filter for the humidifier I also just bought. Upon placing the filter in and turning the unit on, a strong odor filled the room. I had to open the windows to air the room out because I didn't think inhaling the smell was a good idea. Being that it was for my bird's room, I feel sure that it would result in him getting sick or worse. I believe the problem lies in the Protec antimicrobial treatment. I would never have bought it had I known about this.

Works great
We have bad water that can turn these filters into nasty colors quickly, but it seems to me that means its doing its job. We have gone through over 20 of these in our baby's room over the last couple years and have not experienced any of the odor issues mentioned in the prior review.

Not sure if it was the right product
I wished there was a description of what the product was made from, for example this product is plastic. What came with the orginal humidifer was made out of paper.

Mini Dehumidifier



Great Little Dehumidifier!!!!
I have two of these one in my spice cabinet and the other in my jewelry drawer. Keeps everything nice and dry with no batteries. I just plug it in to dry out when the indicator shows that it's full of moisture.

worked once
I read reviews that loved & hated this product. For about $20 I decided to give it a try because I was tired of having to refill & have buckets of damp-rid eveywhere.
I was a little suspicious because I couldn't figure out where the moisture woud go once it was absorbed.

I put this behind my books in a bookshelf. After a few weeks when I went to refill the damprid bucket on th floor near the bookshelf I saw that the colors had changed. So I followed the instructions to plug it in. The "color crystals" had turned back.

But months later (and several damp-rid bucket refills in the same room), the "rocks" haven't changed color again.

I don't think I'd get another one.

We bought a big regular dehumidifiier that we run in the basement, and a few damp-rid buckets discreetly tucked around the living room & bedrooms will have to suffice.

Great for small spaces
I have an old car that tends to get a lot of moisture in the trunk. I used to leave the trunk open in the garage with a fan on to dry it out, but since I moved and have to park outside now, I purchased this item. I leave it in the trunk, and every few weeks take it out, plug it in, and reuse it. It's keeping the trunk pretty dry and keeping me from having to buy a new car! I highly recommend this item for small spaces.

Buffalo Tools BBQDC Double Beer Can Chicken Cooker



It Does The Job and Does It Very WEll !!!
This is a great item, very solid, well made and strong. We have been cooking two chickens at a time, with four ears on corn on one side and four potatoes on the other side. Using two charcoal fires, one at each end of the grill. The heat stays at about 300 degrees and in two hours everything is perfectly cooked! The can holders are the perfect size and work extremely well.

two chickens are better than one
this is a heavy duty well made beer can chicken/potato/corn cooking rack. this rack seems to welded good and is easy to clean but be very careful the part that holds the potatoes/corn are VERY sharp. there are plastic protectors over the points for safety that can be removed and should be removed before placing rack in the oven/smoker/grill because they will melt. the part that holds the cans works great the chickens stay standing upright. this rack works very well and was worth what I payed for it.

Beer Bum Chicken at it's Best
We love this. No, really. We love it. It's so much easier than how we used to prop up the chicken during cooking and hope we didn't bump the grill and knock it over. We probably use this once a week.

It fits two regular sized full chickens perfectly with the can underneath. It's 100% stable. It's easy to remove the chickens from the cooker as well, leaving the can behind so it can cool before being thrown away.

We've used the metal skewers on the side for potato or veggies and it's great to have it all cook in one place at one time.

Can't recommend this one enough if you are looking to make beer bum chicken cooking easier.

Rubbermaid Commercial Sweeper - 7-1/2"



DOES THE JOB!
I purchased this sweeper for a specific reason: to clean my indoor/outdoor rugs and my house rugs like runners and area rugs. It is designed for low carpet and it works well for these rugs. I am surprised as to how much the dirt container holds. I have purchased several other brands of cordless electric brooms and sweepers to use for these rugs and they never picked up as well as the Rubbermaid Commercial Sweeper picks up. The part I like the best is that I don't have to charge it to use it.

I did research before I purchased this sweeper and I am very satisfied with my purchase.

Sweeper has met my expectations.
We have two cats and were always needing to get the vac out to clean up cat hair. The sweeper is easy and convient to usel. Very happy with the purchase.

Carpet Sweeper
It works like my grandmothers old carpet sweeper. Works well on short knap carpets and bare floors picking up cat hair and "tracked in" items from outdoors.

Delonghi EMK6 Alicia Electric Moka Espresso Coffee Maker



Excellent coffee -- read update ;-)
1/20/06 First reviewed: I received this as a gift and had about twenty wonderful cups of moka from this cute little electric machine, but then one day in the third week of ownership, steam went a'flyin outside of the moka maker instead of into the top chamber. I called customer service and was given a run-around, ugh. I was told that without a receipt I could buy the replacement unit for around $40 plus shipping. She said that most of their products have a 30 or 60 day warranty, which surprised me greatly. Since I'd owned the product for less than 30 days, I figured I was still in the warranty time any way one looked at it, but I was wrong. With no receipt, no exchange from DeLonghi. Well, I tried to use the unit after really tightening the top and bottom together and the escaping steam abated. The next week, the shut off valve on the heating unit started making a terrible noise and the unit wouldn't even start. It would be triggered within a few seconds to shut off, so I had...

It has a big flaw, but I love it anyway
I'm on my 2nd Electric Moka machine. The first one died when the plastic piece on top cracked near the handle and it began to leak. I realize now that it cracked from tightening the top piece by rotating the plastic handle rather than grabbing the metal mid-section. I also realize that I began tightening it extra tight when the rubber washer inside started to wear out. So that's the deal. Replace the washer when it gets ragged and don't screw the pot together with the plastic handle. Do these two things and the machine will last ages. BTW, it makes FANTASTIC espresso, is easy to clean, is compact and very cute. I love it!!!

Effective, compact
What I initially liked about this machine is the fact that I could use it off the stovetop and it really is not a counter hog--I bought it for my office, actually. I was surprised at how piping hot the coffee can get in it. All in all, it works well. Realize, too, this moka brew is definately a step down in flavor from traditionally brewed espresso (from a pump-driven machine). I recommend it.

NEW 6 Ft. Electrical Appliance Cord -- Fits Farberware Open Hearth Broiler Rotisserie



Great Replacement Part for Older Appliance
I was thrilled to discover this cord for my ancient Farberware Grill. I hadn't used the grill since the cord became separated from the appliance during one of my several moves. I'm happy to be able to use the grill once more. The cord fits! Yay!

I've never used this cord for yogurt
I like this appliance cord when I make chicken. I like it when I make steak. It is rugged and it is black and it is six feet long. It even works for Turkey. If your cord is old and worn out or burned like mine, then by any means replace it. Don't use it in your shower.

Just what we needed.
Just what we needed to replace the old, burned out cord. Great price and a quick delivery. We're grillin' again!!

CleanAir Air Purifier Cleaner Ionizer with HEPA Filter, Ozone Generator and UV Sterilization Light



This is a great little unit and well worth the money!
Although the unit did not come with a pre-filter as shown, I contacted the seller and was told the owners manual is out of date and the unit does not come with a pre-filter. I really don't see the necessity for a pre-filter and the back cover acts as one anyway and will help keep hair, etc from getting in the unit. The spare fuse is located in the fuse holder. For the money it has all the features: a TRUE HEPA filter for dust, skin cells, dust mites and other small particles; a charcoal/carbon filter for odors; a UV light that works with the Photocatalyst filter to kill virus and bacteria; Ionization to clean the air and an adjustable ozone (to "Shock" the air and clean it) that has a higher output than others in it's price range. Seller Warranty: 3 Years.

I have very bad allergies and after running this one night in my small bedroom, I could tell a big difference in the way I felt the next day. DO NOT RUN THE OZONE WHILE YOU OR ANY PETS ARE IN THE ROOM! The ozone...

Detailed Review - Amazing Result in only 5 minutes!
Just received the air cleaner shipment and the package was boxed and packed very well. Unboxing and verifying all parts resulted in finding no broken parts or damage. I rearranged the filters so that the carbon filter came before the Hepa filter so that I can prolong the Hepa Filter life and complete less cleaning for the Hepa filter. If I ever get the carbon filter so dirty that I need a new one...I will go buy a cut to size carbon filter replacement at a local store and cut it to size. Much cheaper to replace a carbon than a Hepa. Side note - this HEPA filter is washable, so you shouldn't have to ever replace it. The cleaner DOES NOT have ceramic plates for generating the ozone. Repeat..DOES NOT have ceramic plates. The ozone is generated by an already installed ozone strip inside the machine held in with two screws....so my research tells me and in observing the strip light up internally when I flip the switch for Ozone to the on position. (Look through the front grill toward the...

So far loving it!
As long as it holds up, this is one of the best ozinators I have ever had. I will up date later. It has 3 wonderful filters, a germicide light and a great ozinator! No plates! Yeah. Easy to take apart and clean. The other ozinators broke iwithin a few weeks and stopped functioning.

Honeywell filter
I'm very pleased with these filters, they store easily and the price was wonderful. Plus they were shipped right away...great customer service!

Beware Seller Filters-Now
Filters-Now only ships one filter even though the description specifies two. The filter was of the promised quality and arrived intact (although with too much packaging)

Filter was fine
This was the first time I replaced the unit in my A/C, and the unit fit and worked fine. I think when I ordered it, I found that there were several things that sounded like it had the same name or number, but had different dimensions, so be careful to ensure that the unit you purchase has the dimensions you are looking for

Frigidaire 240328201 Bearing Hinge



Fixed my fridge door issue!! wooohooo!
Not much to say. Plastic part. Fridge door wouldn't close by itself anymore. My original part wore out after 5 years and broke. This little jammy fixed that problem.

Holy wow, this piece is tight.
As far as refrigerator bearing hinges go: Damn. I have never encountered a better one.

Oh, five more words required? How about JUST PLAIN ROCKS MY KITCHEN.

The part is the part, OEM - nothing out of the ordinary but this vendor sent it to me immediately.
Received the part in record time. Since I made a point to order this part along with another from the same vendor, Iwould have preferred not to have to pay double shipping - especially considering the parts had virtually no weight, but my complaint is offset by the service I received.

Rival Electric Popcorn Maker



yummy
works great family uses it all the time pops well great price got one for my parents also and they really like it too

Great popcorn machine
I like the melted buyer popcorn making combo of this machine. I am very satisfied with this purchase as are my guests

Super Popper!
This is a great little machine. The only drawback is that you have to be able to read and follow the instructions. We forgot how good popcorn could taste. We had been using one of those microwave bowls to make popcorn. When our microwave crapped out we bought a new one, and for some reason the bowl didn't make good corn anymore. We bought one of these and couldn't be happier. A great product!

GE Spacemaker II 1.0 Cu. Ft. Microwave Oven - JEM25DMWW



GE Warranty is Worthless
I finally had to replace my GE Spacemaker microwave after over ten years of good service. The replacement lasted only about two months before it stopped working. I read the instruction booklet and verified that it was fully warranted for both parts and service. But the warranty repair or replacement is free of cost only if you bring it in to a GE service center. When I called GE they told me they don't have any service centers, but they could send a service rep out to my house for a $100 charge. What kind of warranty is that?

Fortunately I bought it from Amazon and they very politely offered to take it back, without shipping charges. I told them I had already thrown out the box and packing materials. They expedited delivery of a new one so I'd have the new box to return the defective one in. Not only that, I was able to save a few dollars since they refunded the full purchase price of $230 and the price had since been reduced to $205. Now that's what I call customer...

Dementions
Product Dimensions: 25.4 x 29.9 x 46.9 inches ; 29 pounds. This needs to be updated. Certainly this microwave is not four feet.

One that fits!
The main reason for buying this was just that we couldn't find a big enough microwave that was also squat enough. This one fit the bill and is an overall good microwave. No complaints.

Water Sentinel WSG-1-4P Replacement Filters, 4-PACK



MSG-1 Water Filter
The filters are an exact replacement for GE MWF water filters. They fit my GE fridge without problem and actually last twice as long as the much more expensive GE or Brita filters. Very satisfied with these for 2.5 years now. Highly recommend.

seller packaging problem and more
deepdiscountsco does NOT package at all securely. mine came in a too-small plastic envelope marked "RECEIVED UNSEALED"by USPS. It was NOTpackaged as "4", all were crushed. 2 of them were NOT sealed as "STERILE" which is the way they are sent from the manufacturer. those 2 were damp and sticky with pink stuff as if used and returned to deepdiscountsco! The filters are excellent when packaged form the manufacturer sealed by law to be sterile. I did not choose deepdiscountsco but was the 1st one on the list of amazon's sellers.

Exact fit
Is exactly the same thing as the original. Yet the cost is so low. I bought a twelve pack. It is well worth it.
