This washer does not have spin dry capacity, which means your clothes are not washed (rinsed) as clean as the regular washers, and you will have to squeeze off the water by hand. Not worth the investment. I am returning mine...

This is a great little washing machine. I use it to wash all my soiled undergarments everyday, and it does a great job at removing all the nasty stains. I recommend this machine to anyone with dirty underwear. Takes the tobacco stains out of my undies with ease. All the yellow spots are gone also. Love this great little creation. Buy 2!

I bought this blender because it was supposed to be designed to make smoothies and iced drinks and that was all I wanted it for. It did blend fairly well and the spout is convenient when you're making drinks...BUT it broke down within a few months of occasional use and it was an extra hassle to clean. The liquid started leaking out of the bottom, and I haven't bothered to fix it because I have an excellent 12 speed Hamilton Beach blender with mini food processor attachment. That blender blends as well or better and it's dish washer safe. The big difference is that Hamilton Beach has hung on for a few years so far with no problems.

I purchased one of these because it accomodated a space problem in an ill-designed kitchen, and while it fit the room well and accomodated more sensibly the amount of food storage genuinely necessary to a "modern" lifestyle, its temperature gauge is located in such a way that it's easily rotated when items are put in or removed from the unit-the result being that I've now had to throw away four batches of completely FROZEN food, three of them the morning following spending a lot of money at the grocery store. PLUS, it measures temperature from "1 to 5," and I have to keep looking in the "owner's manual" to remember which one is warmer and which is colder whenever I'm resetting the unit after throwing out my now-frozen dinners.

The front door trim of the unit, though it looks metallic in the photograph, is plastic and cheap looking. The wine racks barely allow for anything even slightly wide, such as Burgundy, Beaujolais or Champagne bottles, though longer German bottles just fit.

The light bulb blew out after 2 minutes of use. The compressor was serviced after two months of use. If you do buy this unit, I suggest buying a refrigerator thermometer, as the temperature dial must be turned almost to OFF to maintain 55 degrees. The humidity level is maintained, somehow without a humidity resevoir, at 65%, which is acceptable.

This is a glorified college dorm fridge with some plastic wine racks thrown in. If it had better build quality and reliability, it would be a decent value, as the temperature is consistent within a 2 degree window.
