Whirlpool 8205262RB Universal Microwave Steamer Review.
"A REAL GOOD BUY" 2010-05-01
By Michelle J. Turk
I finally found a steamer that is long enough for asparagus and carrots. It works great and works well with my microwave auto cook settings.

The steamer is great. Used it once. It held a lot of veggies, cooked evenly, and cleaned up well. What more could I ask for?

Woods 59014 Decora Style 12-8-4-2 Hour Preset Wall Switch Timer, White, 12-Hour Review.
"Great switch" 2009-12-08
By Z8
These switches work perfectly. I like how these count down the time remaining with the green LEDs. More presses adds time. There is no option to leave the switch on indefinitely, which is great since it is supposed to be a timer. It's nice that there is only one button under the red LED, it is easy to find in the dark. Mounts flush with the switchplate for a clean look. Solid.
"CEILING FAN TIMER" 2010-08-28
By D. vjr (Leavenworth, Kansas)
I replaced the of/off switch to the bedroom ceiling fan with this. Now if I don't want the fan running all night, I just click the number of hours for it to run.
ALso folks, this thing has a brother scaled in 5-10-15-30 minutes. After being pleased with the ceiling fan switch I replaced the bathroom vent fan switches with these.. After a shower, I just click however many minutes I want the vent fan to run to remove the steam and leave. Don't have to remember to go back turn it off which is important if the vent fan is pumping out your air conditioned or heated air.
These switches are white, so if you're installing them in an almond colored switch plate (and maybe in a two switch plate (light/fan), for $3-4 at the local big box you can replace the almond colored switches and plates with white ones to make everything match.
These things are much cheaper at Amazon than they are at big boxes, especially if you have Prime.
"One of a kind" 2010-03-15
By Kenneth S. Plotzker (Wayne, NJ)
I looked for one of these for a while. A quick solution to a simple problem, most units on the market are over engineered. The woods timer is simple, easy to use and well made. Once more, it's a great value.
"GREAT DESIGN" 2010-02-11
By Thomas D. Dobson (MO USA)
GREAT DESIGN. NO SPRING TO GO BAD AS WITH A WITH A MECHANICAL TIMER.

Uber Goop GREY Dishwasher Rack Repair w/40 caps Review.
"Dishwasher Rack Repair Kit is great" 2007-01-10
By Larry R. Demoss
The instructions were good and the product performed as advertised. It dried quickly and allowed me to wash dishes earlier than expected. It would buy this kit again if and when I have additional problems.
"rack repair kit" 2007-11-27
By petition_girl (Ogden, Utah United States)
I loved this product! Repaired all the dings, nicks and rust spots...almost like having a new dishwasher. Except for the obvious caps on the rack tines, you can't really tell where the vinyl was used.
Another plus, Rusan shipped within an hour or two of my order and I had it in just a few days. Wonderful service!
"Worked as Promised" 2008-06-15
By Pam I Am (Illinois)
Was a little skeptical at first, but this product actually worked as promised. My dishwasher looks good as new, and it's nice to have those rusty prongs covered. The grey color was a perfect match for my GE dishwasher.
It is a little tricky to get the product into the prongs because it does dry quickly. I just kept moving fast and covering the bottle immediately after using it. I had no problems and I highly recommend it.
"Used and Approved" 2008-08-29
By Gasoline (Dallas, TX)
Works as advertised and no fear of cheap knock off. Dish washer rack looks like new!
"Excellent Repair" 2008-09-01
By Elle March (USA)
I was seeing rust stains on my dishwasher utensil rack and on some dishes, so I bought this product. It was a quick repair and made my machine look new. Although the consistency of the paint was a bit thick and goopy, it dried well and I was able to wash w/in 24 hours. I was very satisfied that I wasn't looking for a new dish washer, this product did the trick.

Earthmate EP3057AE 30-Watt Spiral CFL Full Spectrum Bulb, 6 Pack Review.
"Excellent Light Output - Perfect Full Spectrum White Light" 2010-01-17
By G. Cox (Shanghai, China)
These lights have exceptionally good light output. I bought these 30 Watt bulbs, but they were a little too bright when I used them in a light fixture with 5 lamp sockets. The 23 Watt bulbs I purchased afterwards are still rather bright in the same 5 socket light fixture, but acceptable. The light output will become a little less with time. These 30 Watt bulbs are excellent for a three lamp light fixture. When compared to an incandescent bulb, these appear to be pure white and the standard bulb a weak yellow glow by comparison. Once you adapt to these full spectrum bulbs, you cannot go back to standard incandescent bulbs. Now I am replacing incandescent bulbs in all areas of my new house except in areas of low usage or places the bulbs will not fit. These bulbs will fit in most fixtures, however. I am replacing the fixture in my garage to put some 45 Watt full spectrum bulbs into a cluster light fixture. I live in the Houston, Texas area so cold weather is not normally a problem. Fluorescent bulbs often are weak in light output in cold weather until they warm up after a few minutes. When warm, they work fine. I have not tried this particular bulb series in a cold soak environment yet. The payoff should come this summer when electric bills are at their peak. These bulbs are very efficient and produce a lot less heat than incandescent bulbs. I look forward to the day that LED bulbs become affordable and brighter, but for now, this is the way to go. Definitely avoid the so called warm white fluorescent bulbs in the stores. Order only full spectrum CFL bulbs or those rated 51K or 55K or anything in the 5000 to 6000 Kelvin light spectrum. I would avoid the bulbs in the 6000 Kelvin range. They probably have too much of a blue shift. The 51K or 5100 Kelvin bulbs are perfect. Then it is just a matter of selecting the wattage you want. For multiple bulb fixtures, the 23 Watt bulbs are usually perfect. For single bulb fixtures, you probably want a higher power bulb than these. I am using a 45 Watt 51K fluorescent bulb over my breakfast nook and it is just right. These full spectrum bulbs are great for SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) people like me. I get winter depression when it is cloudy and bleak for a long time. Normally Houston has plenty of sunshine, but this winter has been unusually cold. Well, at least I am not in the frozen north. This is quite a switch for me because I just moved from the San Francisco area.
"Great full spectrum, easy install, packaged well for shipping" 2009-09-25
By THATCH (OHIO)
I've been a user of full spectrum bulbs because my office is attached to a computer server room and thus has no windows. I use this lights with a few desk lamps that I aim toward the walls/ceiling from my wrap around desk to provide some natural feeling light. It really helps me feel less like taking a snooze under all of the dim indoor lighting.
The packaging was all cardboard and contained no plastic. The bulbs seemed very well protected and I had no issues with them being shipped. I will definitely consider these again the next time I need more full spectrum bulbs. Also, no flicker that I can notice.
"a product that is all as advertized" 2009-10-19
By Craig C. Leslie (wessington springs,SD)
I bought the bulbs to use in a laundry room to better spot any stains and a living for better light on dark winter days. I am well pleased with both.
"Bright White Light" 2010-03-14
By DN (Colorado)
Bight full spectrum light. Size is appropriate (not too wide or long) to fit in the desk lamps. Packaging is made from recycled paper- no plastics used.
"Excellent Light Output and value." 2010-03-06
By Jeff (Sonova Beach, FL)
I added these lights to my shop. Originally I was using two 4' fluorescent tubes. I had dark spots every where. Not very safe when running power tools.
These CFL's are bright and clear. No yellowing. Plus they're energy efficient.
I posted a photo so you can see the output.
My fingers will be safe.

Air King PWC8R Professional Hood Wall Cap, 8 Inch Round Review.
"Best Product when you need 10" duct" 2010-05-02
By D. Patel (WAYNE, NJ, US)
I needed 10" duct and Wall Cap with 10" round connection when we install 60" Broan Hood in our new home. I searched everywhere and contacted all local HVAC supply houses. The issue was they wanted over $100.00 on there caps and there design which had no build it gate which closes the pipe when it is not in use.
This one had that gate and it is installed flushed against the wall so top is tapered down which is perfect when there are chances of water Snow and Ice build up in north east area. Since it is tapped down there is no chance of any type of hold up. It is well made unit and looks good installed. Only complain is i hope they made one in Black which will be best look on new house.
"Commercial Quality" 2010-06-08
By M. Summa (Canton, CT)
Was looking for commercial quality wall cap for professional range hood I was installing. Excellent quality, sturdy guage galvanized steel. Always a little hesitant when buying site unseen, but this unit was all I had hoped it would be. Best price with shipping. Shipped quickly.
