What's great about it: Simple
What's not so great: hope it really works
We have gone thru 4 microwaves in 15 yrs in a rural lake house that suffers power outtages and surges. Cannot afford a whole house sure protector. First time trying one of these. So far, so good.

What's great about it: Things don't get lost
What's not so great: Wish the freezer was more dividable
Love the french doors! Nice big interior, well lit with LEDs - money savers on bulbs. Neat temp control on the door. Wish the freezer had movable dividers to keep stuff separated and standing up. Mostly great - fridge depth nice - stuff doesn't get shoved back and die in the depths. So far, so good.
This product has... A convenient ice maker location, An easy to change water filter, No hard to reach spots, Multiple temperature zones, not a lot of door bins, nice milk in door rack, well lit

What's great about it: cleans well in just 2 hours
What's not so great: very small inside, doesn't hold enough
Our old dIshwasher was a lemon. Decided to change brands and also go for quiet. This dishwasher was spendy but had always heard good things about Bosch. It washes really well with minimal soap and is quiet. It literally holds about HALF of what we used to get in our old washer. Odd, looks same size outwardly. Wish the interior prongs were taller throughout and that the upper rack had wider spots for big glasses. It will do, but will definitely take a plate and big cup to my next dishwasher shopping experience which could be many years because this one will probably last a long time eing German...
This product is... Quiet, Designed to save time and water, Able to deliver spotless dishes, shiny, small inside

What's great about it: easy to use
What's not so great: gets static sometimes
I got this for my husband. His truck is a 2004 - thus, no input ports for MP3 stuff. This solves the problem. It only gets scratchy sometimes. It saves me from listening to sketchy radio on long trips where you lose station coverage. I hope to use it for audio books, too.

What's great about it: both sides of device covered
What's not so great: decreased touch sensitivity
expensive but at least it came with back and front covers. It decreases touch sensitivity and can make some apps hard to use. This is my son's iPod so he is more rough on stuff than I would probably be. We'll see over time how it works

What's great about it: iPod Touch fits in it
What's not so great: wish it came with a hook or place to put cords
We bought this for an iPod touch - it fits great. We attached a hook to the little loop on it and our son hooks it inside his backpack so the iPod won't get squashed or the screen broken. It is very nice. Wish the charger could fit in there with it.

What's great about it: NO viruses, easy to use
What's not so great: Need more education
Our first Mac. Apple will not offer its "store services" to buyers from Best Buy so we missed out on classes that could really help us. The Apple sales associate at Best Buy is why we bought there - he was more helpful and informative. The Best Buy store was less chaotic - believe it or not - than the Apple store and you got more attention. So, we bought from Best Buy. Wish we had known that Apple wasn't going to honor the classes they offer thru their store. The computer was easy - open box, plug in - GO. No problems.

What is the best cleaner/protector for the stainless steel doors?
we were told that we should use a polisher on the doors to help protect them from fingerprints and smudges. What kind do we use and where do you get it?
I use antibacterial wipes on all my appliances. Gave up on fingerprint protection. Can't keep up with those. They makevstainless steel wipes but they are pricey and don't know if they actually "clean" or just pretty.
