Blue Max 3435 2,200 psi 2.4 HP OHV Gas-Powered Pressure Washer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The unit arrived in so-so packaging. As with everyone else, I had a nut missing. This is in my opinion due to the fact that mine were thrown into the box loose, they should be bagged. I fished second nut out of the corner of box.
So, after getting one from my hardware box, I assembled the unit. Reading thru instruction I learned that I need SAE 30 oil. So next thing I did is I went and I bought 2 quarts of such oil. I filled the engine (uses about 1/3 of bottle or even less).
Filled in the gas. Hooked up the hose. Turned on the water (supplied connector started leaking, more on this later). Unit started on third try.
I test drove it and was pretty impressed with results.
Things you want to get before washer arrives:
1 Quart of SAE 30 (this is not modern engine oil!)
1 Quick Connect Male-Female Brass (I use plastic everwhere so I bought plastic but if you start from scratch, get brass)
1 Female-Female connector from Lowes or Homedepot. Anderson Barrows
PBGH2 3/4" FE Hose/FE Hose Swivel (Lowes had it) worked perfectly for me. This is because power washer has male connector (not female like all sprinklers, heads, etc that connect directly to hose) and all quick connects come with male as well. You can't connect male with male :)
Activities before you run your unit:
Fuel: Put fuel in.
Oil: Pour until indicator is at proper level.
Gender converter: Screw on the swivel connector onto power washer. This will make a female connector available on the the power washer. The one I listed above requires to use quite some force, but once it is on, it is on!
Quick Connector: Screw in the male part onto power washer, female onto hose, you are ready to go!Notes:
Chemical application requires you to put "low pressure" tip. The detergent won't be sucked in with any other tip.
Level the unit perfectly. It will cut the fuel once it is even so slightly tipped. If your unit shuts down after 15-30s, it is not leveled!
Use a little bleach with your detergent when cleaning white siding, you'll be amazed how much quicker it goes.Enjoy!

Fisher Paykel : RF201ADUX 36 20.1 Cu. Ft. French Door Refrigerator Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is honestly the best refrigerator I've ever owned. The counter-depth cabinet integrates well into the kitchen, the surfaces are easy to keep clean, and the functionality is terrific. The shallow but wide refrigerator compartment puts everything right in view at eye level and the bottom freezer bin allows frozen stuff to be stacked up without the risk of it falling out on your foot. You have the convenience of chilled water through the door without the mechanical challenges of an ice dispenser.
I do have some minor quibbles. The door shelves and bins are almost - but not quite - big enough for a gallon of milk or an 18-pack of eggs. An extra quarter inch or so there would be welcome.
And then there's the icemaker. It doesn't make a ton of ice (a dozen small cubes every 3 hours or so), but it's plenty for my family, so I'm not taking points off there. The problem is that the feed tube tends to freeze up. It's an easy fix - there's a small heater that eliminates the problem - and it's covered under warranty. But still. The tech says the manufacturer leaves the heater off in order to get an Energy Star rating; sounds to me like removing a spark plug to increase gas mileage.
These quibbles would ordinarily make me give the fridge 3.5 - 4 stars, but the other reviews are so unfair that I figured a bump is in order. Seriously, somebody's slamming this fridge because his dryer didn't work? And another review complains about the unit because the repair guy didn't have parts in his truck? Seriously, those are problems with the dryer and the repair guy; there's nothing wrong with the fridge. According to the guy who came out to fix my icemaker, this is a well-made and reliable refrigerator. I recommend it.

Bestway 81-by-28-Inch Lay-Z-Spa Premium Series Pool Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bought this hottub to put in my apartment (new complex). I have a pretty bad back and this makes it feel great. I've had it for about a month now and love it. Like one other reviewer said, it's not a toy, it's a real hottub. My friends are amazed that I have this huge thing in my apartment.
It fits comfortably 2 people. Sure you can fit 4 in, but unlike most hottubs, your legs just lay out, so with two people you can move your legs in opposite directions, 4 people is a little tricky. Usually with 4 people in it everyone knees and it's fine. Still very comfortable.
Water height, perfect! I can sit down on my butt and the water is basically past my chin. Sit on the knees and it's still at a fine height. No need to worry about going into a kiddy pool. You'd have to fill this half-way to even get a toddler to stand up in this without drowning.
You can definitely feel the jets and they go 95% around the hottub (they stop where the filter is). They're not your typical hottub jets, it's another inflatable-like compartment with holes in it and the air blows through it, but it still feels nice and gets the water moving good.
I paid about [...] + tax + shipping, all in all about [...] and well worth it. I use it almost every day and I'll be in it for hours.
The only problems I have really had with it are I've broken several of the straps that hold the cover on it (inflatable cover with material cover to hold it down), but it's not that big of a deal. I guess I just had the cover inflated too much.
Second Problem is the heater will show 102degrees, and I turn the filter on and it will jump right up to 104 and not heat, any lower than 102 degrees and it heats up fine. I have a thermometer in the water than averages 102degrees.
To fill it up I bought a Fill Adapter that connects from my sink to a garden hose and just run that over and into the tub. Works beautifully. (Water coming from the sink = hot water and no wait for it to heat up) Be careful though because when I first filled it I had the water too hott and it was 112degrees (WAY TOO HOTT, I couldn't get my foot in)
(Note: Ebay Fill Adapter is a cheap product, I replaced the cheap plastic adapter with a metal one from Lowes, 15/16" Female to 3/4" garden hose, and then the 15/16" male adapter to add on, ran me about $[...])
All in all it's a great tub for the money. I highly suggest it and the fun I have outweighs the two little problems!
Had trouble finding filters, but the PBW5 from spa-daddy.com works fine!

Delonghi Pinguino PAC A110 11,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We bought this air conditioner in June of 2008. It ran during daytime hours from June until October. Last weekend, the compressor died.
The air conditioner is under warranty, but the warranty requires that the owner pay the cost of shipping the unit to the nearest repair center. We're in Texas, the nearest repair center is in Tampa, Florida. Shipping will cost over $100.
For a $500 unit to break down 4 months after purchase is unacceptable. To then be forced to pay over $100 in shipping costs in order to get warranty service is unbelievable.
Save your money, find a different unit that will meet your needs. As it stands, I'm either out the $500 we paid for the unit or I have to cough up an additional $100+ to ship it to Tampa for repairs. Astonishing.
DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK

30ft Electric Hose for PowerMate Central Vacuum Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I called GoVacuum to ask a question about the hose and recommended adapter. They told me they do not carry this product and have not had it for several months. They said they actually cancel the orders they receive from Amazon - don't waste your time ordering this one or anything from GoVacuum.

30-Foot "Hayden" Electric Hose will replace a Sears Kenmore PowerMate Central Vacuum hose if the hole in the inlet measures 1.5 inches in diameter. However, we highly recommend the lighter weight crushproof hose for all style Kenmore Central Vacs as stated above. This "Hayden" hose is bulky and wire reinforced. If you wish to use it, no adaptors are needed. If you have the 1.25 inch diameter inlet you can buy the adaptor 302-1.25ST.

InSinkErator F-HC1100C Indulge Contemporary Hot and Cold Water Dispenser, Chrome Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you listen to InSinkErator you will end up purchasing a new unit if not under warranty. The unit is easily fixed see below my instructions. I did pass this on to thier Customer Service hopefully they will review it and publish the instructions for everyone. It takes no parts just minor disassembling and cleaning.
You can easily repair the faucet handle sticking problem from the top.
1.) turn off water - actually you could leave on
2.) using a 3/4 inch open end wrench to remove small retaining cap holding handles in faucet. If you look close you will notice flat sections on cap. Be carefull not to mar finish.
3.) Then pop off handle pivot cap with a small flat screwdriver exposing the stuck plunger. There is hex cap that hold plunger assembly in but you would need a very thin wall socket to remove entire plunger assembly.
4.) Clean as much green goo from plunger area with paper towels and a tooth-pic.
5.) Fill with WD40 cover entire plunger leave soaking over night. (don't use solvents!)
6.) This should loosen remaing debris. Also work plunger up and down, a 1/4 inch extension works good for this.
7. ) reassemble and you should be as good as new.
In-Sink-Erator only wants to sell a new faucet they don't offer and rebuild kit even though the faucet can be repair from top without removing from sink. My faucet works like new after I was done I added vasoline over plunger area hopefully to keep debris out.
Good Luck
