VitaClay VF7700-6 Chef Gourmet 6-Cup Rice and Slow Cooker



SUPERB PRODUCT!!!
The real reason I have nothing negative to write about this Rice and Slow Cooker is because I had no expectations that it would be the same as the other non-stick surface rice cookers and slow cookers.

I expected it to - be different - cook differently - and I expected it to - contribute to my general health. IT HAS NOT DISAPPOINTED ME! I use it daily. I have cooked brown rice, white rice, wild rice mix, oatmeal, beef stew, lamb stew, chicken fricassee, split pea soup, lentil soup, black beans, ....... the list is just too long.

I am COMPLETELY SATISFIED with this ceramic cooker. It is true that there is a small amount of rice that always sticks to the bottom of the pot. The reason for this is that I wanted to get rid of the poisonous non-stick surface on my previous rice cooker. This does not bother me. It is a very small amount of rice and it does not represent a large waste of food nor a large amount of money. My estimate is that it represents...

Functional, but not worth the cost.
I was very excited to receive this in the mail after only two days, thanks go to Amazon. My Fiance and I had been looking for a non-cancerous rice cooker as the teflon coated one we had was chipping outrageously. I was looking for something that would not burn the rice onto the bottom as I had read the stainless steel rice cookers had the tendency to do. I found this along with a few mixed reviews and decided to call the company themselves for answers to my questions. The woman on the phone was very nice and reassured me that the cooker had no teflon (multiple copies of the same review with that accusation were all over while researching) and although it would take about 10 min longer than our old cooker AND was a slow cooker combo, I decided to go for it.
It's ok. It cooks rice well, but if you leave the rice in there for more than 20 minutes on warm expect rice to burn onto the bottom. Brown Rice burns more easily. We tried cooking it with more water, adding water to it...

Tasty Rice
Works well with white or brown rice. My favorite use is for oatmeal,
1/2 cup steel cut oats
1/2 cup mixed grains(flax seed, quinoa, millet, barley, wheatberries, rye,
lentils, split peas)
2 1/4 cups water
1/4 teaspoon spice, cinammon, ginger, turmeric, etc
cook on brown rice setting
top w/ frozen blue berries when done cooking, or raisins, or dried apricots
mix w/ 1 tablespoon extra virgin coconut oil, 1 tablespoon mollasses

2 whopping servings of flavor,texture,fiber, iron.

Just don't drop the lid it will break,

Casabella 11272 Microfiber Glass Cloth



I was skeptical, but this Microfiber glass cleaning cloth really works!
I recently purchased aCasabella 11272 Microfiber Glass Cloth Casabella Microfiber Glass Cloth from a local "organization and hardware" type retail store. I was tired of throwing away coffee filters and having to wash piles of rags when trying to clean my windows and glass doors, and was hoping a cloth like this could help alleviate all that hassle and help me be a bit more "green". But as always I keep a little skepticism in my back pocket, and wait until I see real results first.
I expected to use this cloth along with my Windex or Vinegar cleaning sprays, but upon reading the back of the box I saw it said all you need is perhaps a little water - cool! So I started by spraying my glass sliding door smudges with a little water and wiping with the Casabella cloth. Clean! No more smudges! No lint left behind! Nothing to throw away! No cleaning product needed! Tried my bathroom mirror, and got the same great...

Works Well on Glass and Mirrors
Cleans pretty well dry - will remove streaks, fingerprints, light soil, and is great for touching up. For heavier soiling or marks you will need to use some water. It leaves a surprisingly clean finish for cleaning without anything other than plain water and a cloth. Best of all: no streaks! I can see never or very rarely having to use glass cleaning fluid again. That really saves a lot of money and is much healthier.

This product could be improved by making the cloth double-sided with micro-fiber. The back side as it is now can be hard to get a good grip of. If it was the microfiber, gripping would be much easier in addition to having double the surface area for cleaning. Even if not microfiber, another type of material that wasn't so slippery when wiping would be an improvement. Another serious flaw is the way that it is packaged. The plastic pieces used to attach it to the cardboard create 6 very visible holes in the cloth. I cannot yet say how this will affect the...

my favorite glass cleaning cloth
these work great - I have a glass dining room table that was equally dirty all over; I used a glass cleaning spray on one side and this casabella microfiber glass cloth on the other. Not only did casabella clean it in half the time and effort, it stays cleaner longer! You know how you can clean the bathroom mirror perfectly and then when shower steam fills the Rom, the streaks appear from where your spray cloth was? Not with casabella! No more streaks! The cloth cleans perfectly well dry, but what it doesn't get on first swipe, a slightly damp casabella microfiber glass cloth will get it!

While other products such as Zwipes Microfiber Windshield & Glass Cloth 10-Pack look cheaper, they just don't produce the same fantastic results.

Jenn-Air Puriclean II Refrigerator Ice and Water Filter



Does what I need
Right product...right price. Searched local stores for these and decided it works well just to buy on line. Please with my purchase.

Beware
Seems to be a generic 'filter'. No box, light as air. Water comes out with something in it. My tap water is much cleaner.

excellent!
this water filter provides delicious drinking water. We are on well water (hard water) and all you taste is pure water. Makes it taste like bottled water.

Swift Green SGF-G9 Refrigerator Filter (GE MWF Replacement)



Green manufacturing, great price & No problems
Received the SGF-G9 as pictured which evidently replaces the G1 even though product description says SGF-G1. Filter came sealed in plastic. Filtration ratings are exactly the same for both products. Filled with water & soaked as instructed & filter went in with no problem although did have to push up on the filter rather firmly to get it to go in & had a small bit of spillage from the filled filter as it went in and was turned, but no leaks after turning & sealed. Good flow & mine had no loose carbon dust evident during soaking or initial 1 gallon purge. Water is good. Really like the fact of green environmental manufacture process (hope it's true & not hype!!). Great pricing on this compared to the GE MWF filter it replaced. Noticed the same company (Global Shop Stop) also offers the SGF-G1 with correct SGF-G1 picture for $1 cheaper...old stock?

Nice Replacement for OE Filter at almost half the price
Nice Replacement for OE Filter at almost half the price and it definitely fit my GE refrigerator. I recommend this product.

Water leaves a film.
I just installed this filter on my GE refrigerator and I'm not happy with it. We have a water fountain for our cat and water from this filter leaves a slimy film on the fountain. We have never had this problem previously!!! We had always used the GE filter.

Whirlpool 2180224 Ice Guide



Works great
It was easy to install,Took a few seconds. Impresively fast shipping! Very happy with that aspect cause i got to put the ice machine back together quicker and this was one of the parts i was replacing.

Identical replacement for a poorly designed part
Identical replacement for the original and the ice chute no longer stays jammed open. I wish the design were more robust but this fills in for one that broke after about 5 years.

Not as clear as original but works fine
Original guide lasted from 2007 to 2013; this replacement was identical in shape but not as clear
A visit to YouTube helped me figure out how to get it to clip-in. I had to take off the fascia, unplug the light, and unscrew the panel that was blocking my view. Then, it was easy. The whole thing only took a minute to complete, once I figured out the right way to clip that thing into the slot.
5 stars for being able to get a perfectly functional replacement part shipped so easily, but -1 for the opaque color (though it's not something that anyone would notice once it's installed in the fridge).
