The apartment I’m renting included this nice refrigerator by Frigidaire. It looks nice and has performed flawlessly for six months. Take a look at the details:

~ Product Details

The Frigidaire FRT18S6AW Top Freezer Refrigerator doesn’t have a ton of bells and whistles, but it certainly includes most of the basic features you’d want in a relatively inexpensive refrigerator.

- Frost proof freezer

- Slide out shelving

- Gallon door storage

- Dairy storage

- Twin crispers

This fridge measures 65 1/8″ high, 29 5/8″ wide, and 29 7/8″ deep. It’s 18.2 cubic feet, with 14.13 c.f. for fresh food, and 4.07 c.f. in the freezer section.

My Dad was an old vacuum cleaner salesman. For some years he sold electrolux door to door. So vacuums kind of run in our family.

Now that my second Sharp has died — it was not repairable — I shopped very carefully and decided to go for a Dyson. I studied the various models, including the Dyson balls (Dc24 and Dc25), the DC14, etc. I ended up getting a great deal on a DC07, and to put it mildly, I am very happy with it.

I never thought I would have the need for such a machine as this one that is a combination top load washer with a dryer stacked above it. As it is I did have a need as did the rest of my family on a one week vacation. We had an apartment type accommodation and in the bathroom was this stacked washer and dryer combination. We used it that week and we used it hard.

Some Basics

I can’t seem to find this model of Shark Steam Mop I bought on this site; the one reviewed and listed is one that retails for about $20 less than this.

What prompted me to look into a steam mop of any brand was that commercial you see all the time for the “As Seen On TV” H20 Mop. It seemed like something I could use on both tile and Pergo. I researched it as thoroughly as I could and the general consensus is that it was a piece of garbage. So I then searched for what was better, and got a few of my friends to make a recommendation, and this is where I was pointed. To a “Shark Steam Mop.” It was only after I entered the store (Bed Bath & Beyond) did I see that there were two different models, either $79.99 or $99.99.

I bought this dryer at the suggestion of a salesman at a private appliance store. Right from the start the dryer worked at sub-optimal efficiency. The people at the store claimed that the Amana NDE2330AY is a model on which they don’t get much negative feedback. If that is true, then I must have gotten the lemon of the batch.

The dryer has a main dial with settings for Regular (with more dry/less dry and cool down), a No Iron fabrics setting (also designating more dry, less dry and cool down), and Extended Tumble; it also has a setting marked, “air fluff” and another that reads, “Automatic Wrinkle Out.”

This is a terrific little vacuum. It is lightweight and very easy to use. The edger makes it easy to get into corners. The floor attachment keeps wood floors from getting scratched.

I bought this so that I can clean up small messes and dog hair quickly. My other vacuum is a professional carpet floor cleaning unit made by Host and works great but it is a big heavy unit. This lightweight little vacuum makes keeping floors clean a breeze.

I’ve had this little fridge in my office for about 9 months now and I love it. It is small enough to be tucked away underneath my desk, but large enough to fit several drinks and whatever I’ve brought for lunch. It is also nice and quiet, which is important since it’s in my office.

The Specs

This is a very compact 1.7 Cubic Foot refrigerator that measures 17.3”w X 20.1”h X 17.8”d and weighs about 40lbs. There is a very small freezer area in this fridge that is approximately 6”w X 4”h X 11”d. It also has a 1 year manufacturer’s warranty.
