  3. I second marcster. I have that Mr coffee pot and it's terrible. I am on my third one. First one broke within two months exchanged it, then they leaked from the bottom. I emailed mr coffee and they sent me replacements but it's definately not the quality i expected from that brand nor for the $50 price tag. Get a cheap one without the extra bells and whistles, they seem to last the longest.

    :gd_shake:We 'fired' Mr Coffee 10 years ago.

    If you want to get one that will last you forever and make excellent coffee, pick up a Bunn home coffee maker. You can also use it for instant hot water for cooking and beverages, because it uses a resevoir system. I think it's the only maker in the $100 range that's actually worth the money.

    Absolutely Agree - about the Bunn & the French Press!! :yup:

    The Bunn brews a full pot in 3 minutes.

    We drink 3-4 pots a day. The first one we had worked like a horse for 6 years - and probably would last someone who drinks less coffee a very long time!!

     

    In my area, they run about $110.00 on sale..... though I did find this gem...

    I ordered from this site and had no complaints.

    :gd_dollar 76.99 + ~10.00 to ship.

    *Searching from the homepage by a keyword or item number, it returns nothing related to these coffee brewers.

    From the Our Products List click on 'Appliances & Electronics', then 'Coffee Makers & Tea Brewers' then 'Drip Coffeemakers 10 cup', .... the Bunns don't display a picture.

    I used the Bunn website to compare the models.

  5. How much is it and where can I find it???

     

    Kdymott, thanks so much for your invaluable info! I will be using it a LOT in my search for a DEAL!

    you are quite welcome!

    Comparing washer/dryers was very aggravating to me.... like vacuum cleaners :banghead:

    I just wanted something reliable to get the job done well the first time!

    That little list took a lot of digging to put it together as I recall so I am thrilled it can serve beyond my own need.

  6. We purchased last year- check consumer reports....

    Decided to purchase Kenmore from Sears.

    :gd_dollar Cost was ~$800.00 for both washer and dryer plus $100 for delivery and taxes.

    Washer (Sears item #02626862000 / Mfr. model #26862)

    Kenmore 3.2 cu. ft. Super Capacity Plus Top Load Washer

    Dryer (Sears item #02676642000 / Mfr. model #76642)

    Kenmore 6.5 cu. ft. Super Capacity Gas Dryer

     

    So you may benefit from my research (I don't have the sources) -

    Here is some of the info I collected and used to make the best decision for us:

    :g_think:

    20 lbs of laundry = large load

    15 lbs of laundry = medium

    10 lbs of laundry = small

    5 lbs of laundry = xtra small

     

    The average wash load in current agitator washers and high-efficiency washers is about the same — approximately 12 pounds.

    12 pound capacity = A full set of king sized sheets, ~4-5 large bath towels or even ~4 pair of jeans

     

    Super capacity tubs will hold 3 to 3 1/2 cubic feet or 22 to 24 pounds of laundry

    An average spin speed is 1000-1200 RPM and is usually more than sufficient.

     

    Front loaders are more efficient but require special detergent

    The best front-loader on the market is the Kenmore HE 3t and its near clone, the Whirlpool Duet (both made by Whirlpool). Experts are impressed with the water efficiency and capacity of these models. They use half the water of conventional washers.

     

    A general rule is to have about twice as much capacity in the dryer than in the washer.

    If you buy a 3.3 or 3.5 cu. ft. washer, you will need a 7 cu. ft. dryer.

    Dryers costing below $350 don’t perform quite as well

     

    Two reviewers list GE Profile models among their top picks, citing superior drying ability and numerous extra cycles.

    Reviewers say nearly all mid-priced Kenmore models do a good job with the basics.

     

    goodluck!

  7. I just purchased a 27" Toshiba a week ago that I am very happy with.

    It was recommended on consumer reports.

    MSRP on Toshiba's site is $350.

    Sears item #05747486000 Mfr. model #27DF46

    Sears and BB were competitive for pricing when I shopped a few weeks ago.

     

    DESCRIPTION:

    Want to replace your current tube ( CRT) TV with a similar set but be ready for the digital television future? The Toshiba FST PURE® flat screen SDTV receives all digital television signals, using an internal ATSC digital tuner, and then converts those signals to standard definition ( 480i) (antenna may be required).

  8. My DH is a 'computer geek'.. We've been through several printers.

    The Lexmark all in one was a real pain for us - the user interface is awkward and the print jobs are disruptive if you multi-task.

    Our lexmark is collecting dust in the basement and we re-installed our old 820 HP model.

    When it is replaced, it will be with an HP.

     

    There is a really nice model we looked at last weekend that is wireless...

    I haven't committed time to price comparisons, but Staples has it on sale now for $398.

    HP C7180 Photosmart Color Flatbed All-in-One

    Ultimate photo all-in-one with fax, superior scanning and advanced wireless.
