LG LHD45EL 45 Pint dehumidifier Low temperature operation Review

I did quite a bit of research on this item and a tip I read somewhere online suggested that you find out who made the compressor before buying. My understanding is that there are at least three different compressors on this model. I purchased mine at Home Depot and took it out of the box before buying. You can see the compressor manufacturer through the grill once it's out of the box. Only buy the item if the compressor is made by QINGAN or HICHLY. I purchased a QINGAN and it is whisper quiet and I could tell the difference in our musty damp basement within 12 hours. I have the hose hooked up right to our sump pump so I am not dealing with the bucket and don't know how much water is being pulled out of the air per hour or anything like that. It was super easy to set up - even the hose hook-up. Home Depot was selling it for $200. I have had it for 3 days so time will tell but I am very pleased so far.
Update 9/15/09: The hose hook-up worked well for about a week. Then, no matter how much care we take to hook it up, the water still goes in the bucket! Instead of the hose connecting to the bottom of the bucket and draining the water as it goes in, LG tries to bypass the bucket completely and just isn't working for us. There is nothing in the trouble shooting guide to help. Everyday we have to empty the bucket and since it is running (still quietly, I might add) in an unfinished basement, we have to remember to go down and see if the bucket is full. LG - you need a better design!!! I would drop the star rating to 3 stars if I was able to change my original star rating.

I bought an old Mr. Coffee Iced Tea maker from Goodwill, but it didn't have a pitcher. I got this one on amazon and it works as if I'd bought them together. It has measuring lines on the pitcher for ice and water and its very big! I love it! Well worth the cost.

Sunbeam 2349 Heritage Series Stand Mixer Review

Sunbeam 2349 Heritage Series Stand Mixer

I love my Heritage stand mixer! I used a sunbeam stand mixer for aprx. 25 years and it finally died on me. It was great except for the real heavy duty mixing (it had fewer watts than the Heritage model does). I replaced it with a KitchenAid stand mixer. I put up with it for 5 years and mostly hated it. It beat things too light... mashed potatoes, cookie dough... which changed the texture and taste of foods. Worst was how frustrating KitchenAid's are to use. The mixing bowl is deep and small in diameter. That means every time you need to mix a bit with your spatula, you have to turn off the mixer, unlock the head, lift up the head, then mix your ingredients, then put the head back down, then relock the head, then turn the mixer back on... every time you want to stir a bit. There just isn't room for reaching into the bowl it's so small in diameter. When you add in dry ingredients to your dough you can't get into the bowl enough with anything other than a stirring spoon. I just found that it wasn't worth the frustration.
Compare that to the Sunbeam Heritage which I bought 5 months ago... powerful motor (in fact, more watts than the KitchenAid most people buy and more watts than my original Sunbeam)... large diameter bowl so you can add ingredients easily and mix when you want to.
Only thing I would like on my Sunbeam Heritage that I don't have is a glass bowl. My original one had glass bowls and they were great for mashing potatoes in and then heating them up a bit in the microwave, without having to transfer them. (KitchenAid's bowls aren't glass either.)

Combining 12 variable speeds and a powerful torque-control motor, this 450-watt stand mixer provides superior mixing control and maintains speed regardless of the mixing load. The unit ensures thorough, even mixing by offering dual-motor three-way beating action where one motor drives the beaters, each turning in opposite directions, and a second motor drives the bowl. The bowl speed increases and decreases automatically as the beater speed is increased and decreased. Simply slide the bowl selector lever on the front of the unit to the left when using the small bowl and to the right when using the large bowl. For added convenience, the head and beaters are off-center to the bowl to make it easier to add ingredients during mixing, and the mixer's tilt-back head simplifies removal of the mixing bowl and attachments. The eject button, located on the top of the handle, releases the attachments for easy cleaning by hand or in the dishwasher. Attachments include stainless-steel wire whisks for whisking cream, egg whites, light batters, and cake mixes; stainless-steel "v-groove" beaters for creaming butter and sugar, plus mixing heavy cake mixes; and stainless-steel dough hooks for kneading dough and other heavy mixtures. A user guide with recipes is also included. Housed in heavy-duty die-cast metal with non-slip rubber feet for stability, the stand mixer measures 16-7/8 by 8-3/4 by 18 inches and carries a two-year limited warranty.

Mr. Coffee 114868-000-000 Iced Tea Maker Brew Basket Review

After five years, the basket in my Mr. Coffee iced tea maker was clogged with buildup from the tea. As such, it didn't drain all the way when it was done brewing, and I'd often end up spilling quite a bit of tea as I removed the basket. This new basket works perfectly and solved my problem.
Please note, however, that the product image is incorrect. The picture (currently) shows a black basket for a drip coffee maker. The actual product is a white basket for iced tea makers models TM30P and TM30PL. Be sure to check the model number on the box or the bottom of your product to make sure this is the right part for you.

This is the best all around stock tank heater I've found. The horses don't mess with them, they don't melt rubber/plastic pans (winter bird baths, pond liners), and it sure beats having 1500 watters going all winter! When our temperatures and wind chills drop below zero, I just drop a second one in each tank.....still beats 1500 watters! My tanks are in 3 sided run-in stalls and are not insulated other than being out of the wind. Best price on these is right here at Amazon.com

Mr. Coffee TM70 3-Quart Iced-Tea Maker Review

Mr. Coffee TM70 3-Quart Iced-Tea Maker

I had an earlier Mr. Coffee Ice Tea Maker before this one and it was awesome. I loved it. The only problem was that it just got old from lots of use and the pitcher and tea bag holder started breaking. So I bought a new one for Christmas this year. This model. And it is absolutely horrible. The problem appears to be that as the tea is coming down out of the top of the unit and trying to drop into the pitcher, the unit starts acting up and the hot tea starts getting distributed onto the sides of the unit around the end of the pitcher, instead of falling directly into the end of the pitcher, and it leaks all over the counter. Horrible, horrible design. I do not understand how Mr. Coffee hasn't been sued over this piece of crap model yet from having it burn someone. I'm returning mine and I'll think twice about buying another Mr. Coffee model again.

Coffee drinkers have their automatic brewers, why shouldn't tea drinkers? Ideal for family gatherings or summer picnics, this versatile machine brews up 3 quarts of iced tea quickly and easily. Simply pour water into the water reservoir and add the desired amount of tea to the removable brew basket--five to seven bags of tea or 2 to 3 tablespoons of loose tea work well when brewing a full pitcher; sugar, lemon, and other flavorings can also be added to the brew basket for customized results. Then fill the pitcher with ice cubes to the ice-level marking and slide it against the machine with the pitcher spout open and flush against the appliance, and push the "on" button. The water heats up and steeps the tea in the brew basket, then hot tea drips down into the pitcher of ice. At the end of the brewing cycle, the machine shuts off automatically for safety and peace of mind. Other highlights include a power indicator light, a water window in the reservoir for accurate filling, and a steeping lever for adjusting the brew strength. The pitcher provides a lid, a generous handle, and a nondrip pouring spout for graceful serving, and it cleans up easily by hand or in the dishwasher. The iced-tea maker measures 8-1/2 by 15-1/2 by 12-1/2 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
