Bissell Garage Pro Wet/Dry Vacuum, 18P0 Review

Bissell Garage Pro Wet/Dry Vacuum, 18P0
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
After I finished vacuuming all 4 of my cars, I vacuumed the garage! This is one convenient and easy to use garage vacuum. I can't believe the suction going through 30 feet of hose would be so strong. Everythign was easy to get set up too, it took about 5 minutes. I sure won't miss dragging the canister around when it's time to do cars (which I do weekly). The attachements will fit just about every need too. All in all, this is one good product!

Frigidaire FRA052XT7 5,000 BTU Mini Window Air Conditioner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I got it hoping it would keep my apartment cool-ER. I expected it to keep it comfortable, not cold. I also had a bit of a problem with size. The only window that opens in my house is a vertical sliding window, which Air Conditioners I can afford, aren't made for.
Once I received it, I started to assemble and install. Originally I was going to leave the extensions off, since my window was only 18 inches wide, but after I got it and thought about it more, I realized they could still help keep it supported. So I put them on. They are about an inch inside the window, to help it from falling out. Also, I originally hoped to buy some wood and put that above it, but once I saw how sturdy it was with just the extensions, I put cardboard above it and plastic taped around the edges with duct tape. Very red neck, I know. It's sealed with the help of some other bits that came with it to help seal it.
I installed it a little over 12 hours ago and my home is cold. I live in a house above a garage. Just a large living room, average bathroom and small bedroom. It's 621 SQ Feet.(assuming I did the math correctly. 23 x 27 feet.) This is total, but there are 3 separate rooms here. (Also, I have a low ceiling, only 6.5 Feet.) I placed it in my only opening window in the living room and it keeps the bathroom cold which is closest, and my bedroom pretty cold too, which is farthest. A lot larger than advertised for. I didn't care, I needed a little cooler than I had. Before, it was hotter inside than it was outside. I have it on high, but will consider turning it down, which I never thought I would do. I like the cold. It's THAT cold.
For $110, I got an amazing air conditioner that perform WAY better than expected/advertised and it got here exceptionally fast too. It arrived 4 days after I ordered it with standard shipping and handling. I am a very happy costumer.

I am getting ready to throw away my child's 2nd Thomas the Tank Humidifier in 4 months.There is a small piece of plastic in the tank that covers the night light on the base that has broken on both of the units.Without this little piece of plastic, the water will not stay in the tank and pours out EVERYWHERE!

Honeywell HUT-102M Quietcare Ultrasonic Mini Tower Humidifier Review

Honeywell HUT-102M Quietcare Ultrasonic Mini Tower Humidifier
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
First of all, this humidifier is quiet.I keep it next to my bed and the very faint noise doesn't bother me at all.I use only distilled water in it.That's a little expensive, but I can get one-gallon jugs at Wal-Mart for sixty four cents, so it's better than having white dust all over the room.This model has a "white dust" filter, but most such filters are iffy at best.

Now for the problems.Filling is a pain.If it's not completely empty, water remains in the base, which tends to drip and spill when you lift the tank off for re-filling.So I carry the whole unit to the sink just to make sure I don't get water all over my carpet.(Water can spill if you don't keep the unit level.)Further, the refill opening is on the bottom, so you have to turn the tank upside down to fill it.The tank top is slanted, so you can't set it down.You have to hold the tank with one hand, and fill with the other.It's a very clumsy process.

The last thing I have to say is the blue light is incredibly annoying.It lights up your whole bedroom and can't be turned off.I wrap a towel around it.What were they thinking?Sure, it looks cool, until you try to go to sleep.

Overall,though, it works nicely and has been quiet, which is exactly why I bought it and am keeping it.If you are elderly or arthritic, the girations you need to go through to fill it may cause you to look elsewhere.

The humidifier is very quiet on the low setting.There are only 2 fan speeds so it was kept simple.It has a very innovative design because there is no tank to remove and fill under the sink.Instead you can add water from the top using a pitcher.The replacement wicks are more pricey than the Vornado evaporative humidifier.The cost of the wicks is a concern if you let it run out of water because then the wicks will gather dust and need more cleaning or possible replacement depending on how long you have let it run empty.(I edited this review so I would have put 4 stars rather than the original 5 but the "edit review" features do not allow you to change the number of stars.)

Soleus Air CFM-40 E 40-Pint Dehumidifier with Humidistat Review

Soleus Air CFM-40 E 40-Pint Dehumidifier with Humidistat
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I installed this unit in my basement about 8 months ago, and it has been working flawlessly ever since.

Things I noticed:

If the power goes out, the unit will NOT turn back on automatically (as some other units do.)

If you want to use the continuous drainage (which I highly recommend) via a hose, you have to punch out a plastic disc on the side of the unit.I would have designed a screw-type plug that was replacable, but they didn't think of that.Anyway, once you punch the quarter-size disc out it's out forever.

If you choose to use the continuous drainage feature, you will need to pick up a hose with an inner diameter of 15mm (.59" or just over half an inch.)I went to the local DIY center and found some clear tubing that has worked well.

The unit can operate down to 2-degrees C (36-degrees F), which will be great for continuous operation in the garage to keep the tools from rusting.

Has three fan settings: med, high and quiet."Quiet" really is quiet, and could probably work just fine in a bedroom.Though, it does warm the room it's in.How much it warms it depends on the humidity setting.

Four settings: The humidty level (humidstat) can be set to "continuous dehumidification" (which is the default setting), 50%, 60% and 70%.The fan will continue to run but the dehumidification processor will turn off when it reaches the selected humidity level.Cool.I mean, that's when the fan will just blow room-temp air.

A full drainage tank will stop the unit and illuminate a "tank full" indicator light.

The unit is not that heavy -- maybe for some, but not nearly as heavy as some people make it sound.It's 30.8 pounds.

According to the instructions: You will need at least 21 cm (about 8 inches) of clearance in front, behind and side to side.Air blows out of the top of the unit, so you'll need to make sure it's clear as well.

There are movable louvers on the top to direct the air straight up, 45-degrees or almost straight ahead.

Power consumption: CFM-25E is 220W//CFM-40E is 330W

I highly recommend this model dehumidifier.

***15-month UPDATE:It is still working like a champ!We haven't had one single problem with it, and I don't foresee ever really having one in the near future.I've been running this thing nonstop and it has only required me to clean the filter on the back (which takes 5 minutes.)It has remained as quiet as the day I bought it.It's awesome!

Product Description:
The 40-pint Soleus Air dehumidifier (model CFM-40) removes unwanted moisture from the air to create a more comfortable environment in your home or office. Weighing under 31 pounds, it can be conveniently moved via its bottom caster wheels from room to room within your home and set up in just minutes. Taking advantage of refrigeration technology, the dehumidifier powerfully emoves partial moisture from the air to decrease the humidity level of the room and keep the indoor air dry and comfortable.

Other features include manual and soft touch control, silent operation, and an automatic shut-off to prevent overflow. The unit measures 14-1/2 by 10-1/4 by 21 inches (WxDxH) and weighs 30.8 pounds.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I should start with the fact that everyone in our household has allergies, even the dog I think, but that had not been confirmed.Currently we have the Blueair units in all the bedrooms and family room.The best thing about Blueair units is they work!We really feel a difference.Before getting Blueair my wife was not able to sleep thru the night. She would get congested and her throat would get dry so she kept waking up to drink water. Whatever was giving her trouble is now gone from the air and she is finally able to get a good nights sleep.
Outside the fact that this unit cleans the air, I do also like that it is steel construction ( I did a lot of research and that is hard to find), its quiet!!!, and its energy efficient.This model also comes with interesting electronics.It has a handy little sensor on the side of the machine that actually measures particles and odors.I like that a lot because I can set it on Auto mode and it does all the speed changing by it self.Definitely takes the guess work out of what speed to run it on. As for warranty, the warranty card says mail in for free 5 year warranty.

I buy these humidifiers because they are easy to clean & maintain, and they broadcast a nice mist.

There are no gooey-feeling in-the-water-filters to clean or replace. There is one little filter that cleans the air before it enters into the humidifier, but other than that there is none. It doesn't touch the water.

I have used these humidifiers to put in about 3 drops of essential oil to broadcast through my home daily. They work wonderfully. They are much cheaper than the expensive machines made for essential oils & I think they do a better job.

I have been using these humidifiers for years. I hope they don't stop making them!

Household heating systems in the winter and air conditioners in the summer remove indoor air of its natural moisture. The lungs and respiratory tract are dependent on moisture to function effectively. The humidifier provides proper humidity levels to keep your respiratory system moist and helps relieve cold and flu symptoms and irritated and itching skin and eyes. The motor driven impeller draws up water through its pickup tube, then propels the water by centrifugal force against the screen and battle to provide a fine vapor which is released into the room air. At the same time, the exclusive Kaz Dyna filter air cleaning filter removes dust, pollen, odors, and tobacco smoke from the room air, removing 93% of particles as small as pollen.

Sunpentown SPT SH-1507 Mini-Tower Ceramic Heater Review

Sunpentown SPT SH-1507 Mini-Tower Ceramic Heater
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I LOVE this little heater. I live in St. Pete Florida and needed a space heater for the unseasonably cold weather that we had here. I live in a 650 sq. foot, poorly insulated, garage apartment, and this heater really saved the day when it was in the 20's and 30's outside. We ran only this heater and not our central heater, as the latter costs a fortune and does very little in the way of actual heating. The space heater was used mostly in one large room that comprises about 40% of our apartment, and also in the bedroom which is about 25%. In the bedroom with the door closed this sucker kept it quite warm, even on low (and the bedroom is like 15x13 feet). Granted it takes an hour or so to heat the whole room, but it worked great (so great that we had to shut it off in the middle of the night because we were sweating under our heavy comforter). In the large room, the heater did an admirable job and kept it bearable throughout the cold spell (and that large room has so many drafts it's like all of professional sports combined). Now, with the weather more temperate (40's and 50's) this little heater heats whatever room I'm in without a problem.
I love the high and low settings and the fact that the high setting draws only 1200W (as opposed to 1500W for most space heaters). The unit is quite small and no part of it is too hot to touch at any time. It is a breeze to move from room to room. This heater would be a good choice for anyone with children or pets, as it has a knockover shut-off. It is very quiet (though not silent as some have said). In a room with any ambient noise, you're not likely to hear the heater. In a quiet bedroom it sounds like (surprise) a small fan. There are some days when it sounds a little bit rough on startup, but this noise goes away within a minute or so.
My unit has held up great (I've had it for a few months now and ran it 24 hrs a day for weeks), but I am very careful not to knock it or use it in a humid area (like a bathroom). I could see this heater breaking if it is knocked over or hit against something while moving it between rooms. Also, I take care to hold the heater with one hand whenever I turn the on/off knob with the other hand, because the knob takes a good bit of torque to rotate. If I were to turn the knob without holding the heater I would be twisting the whole heater on its base which could potentially damage the oscillation feature. With proper care this heater seems like it will fare well.
For me, this heater was a great buy. It was relatively inexpensive, it is small and easy to store, and it puts out an admirable amount of heat for its size. I wouldn't rely on it to bring a large room up to a short sleeve and shorts temperature in the dead of winter, but it will definitely take the edge off the cold. In a closed room this heater will bring the temperature up nicely.
Amazon, as always, was a pleasure to deal with. Oddly, the manufacturer's packaging looked like it had been opened and re-taped, but the interior packaging appeared factory fresh. I guess it could have been opened and re-sealed, or the Sunpentown factory just tapes up their boxes sloppily. Either way, the heater is great, and I am quite pleased.

Average Reviews:

The Aquaclear power filters are the best in the market. These filters provide a HUGE surface area for an efficient biological treatment of the aquarium water. I own four of these filters and have been running continuously for more than three years! They are extremely quiet. I have experienced only two problems with these filters. First, the filters drain into the aquarium during power outages and will not restart on their own. Second, if not cleaned frequently the foam blocks will be pushed upwards and displace the cover. Overall, these are great filters and I would not replace them for another power filter.
