Pinch a Penny
dale May 18, 2009
On October 9th 2004 I purchased a heat pump for my pool. Aquatherm manufactured it. In August of 2006 I discovered oil in my pool. The heat pump had malfunctioned and caused this mess. I call Pinch a Penny and they had a repairman from Aquatherm come out when I wasn’t home. He left a repair invoice (No. 15750 dated 8-14-06) It said something about the compressor heat exchanger being damaged. I call Aquatherm in Fort Myers Fl. To find out if it was going to be repaired. The said the water in the pool wasn’t right and it... read full review »

SAI
G Lewis May 18, 2009
I signed up for a home security system with FirstLine. They took my credit card info and started charging monthly on a 36 month agreement. After 4 months, the company disappeared. They stopped billing me and I could not contact them over the internet or phone. I found out several months later that my contract was picked up by Security associates (SAI). They told me I was 6 months behind but would accept a 3 month payment and waive the other 3 months if I provided a credit card to bill from. I did this and they took the first payment. They... read full review »

Plant Shed
Spepper May 18, 2009
I had a problem with The Plant Shed in Keller/Southlake. They sent me a coupon for 70% off then changed the price of the plants from $14.88 to $24.88 when I attempted to use it! Nothing on the coupon mentioned any limitations. Plant Shed used deceptive advertising and arbitrarily changes the price when you attempt to make a purchase for the discounted price! Beware!! read full review »

American Furniture Warehousse
Adam May 18, 2009
I purchased a bookcase from American Furniture Warehouse at I-25 & Filmore in Colorado Springs and assumed it came in a box and would require some assembly. When it arrived, it was fully assembled and I said I couldn't fit it in my van. They proceeded to jam it in sideways while I was talking to the shipping clerk. No mention was made that I could have it delivered. When I got it home, I had considerable difficulty getting it out of the van and up the flight of stairs to my office. I'm 68 and live at 7000 feet.

Kmart has no permanent cone type filters for Hamilton Beach digital 12 Cup Coffeemaker that they sell there. They have the paper cone type filters, but you have to use 2 filters otherwise they break open at the bottom and the coffee block the bottom and the water doesn't come out of the filter section, it just sits in the cone area.

Me and my wife spent over $2500.00 to buy a set of bedroom furniture at easy life furniture store at Puente Hills. On or around April 26, 2009 we went to the easy life furniture store to look at some bedroom furniture. We were approached by a sales rep named Percy, and he led us through a bunch of beds. Then we finally came to a conclusion on one of the beds which was a demo bed in the showroom and we wanted to take the demo, but the store policy wouldn't let us take the demo.

Kingsdown Series 600 Matress
Linda May 17, 2009
Do NOT buy a kingsdown mattress from Sleepy's. After sleeping on it for one night, you'll know why. I awoke feeling like i'd been hit by a car. I did one comfort exchange, and the next bed was even worse. Now I'm stuck with a bed I can't sleep on. KIngsdown should recall their Sleep to Live series - it's the worst bed y ou could possibly buy. Customer service won't even talk to you, other than offer you a discounted mattress. I'm already up to $3, 500, how much do they expect me to SPEND??? They should be offering full refunds and the entire line should be recalled. read full review »

LG - French Door Refrigerator
SF consumer May 16, 2009
I purchased the LG Refrigerator - French Door / Bottom Freezer LG model LFC22760. On its 2 year anniversary, the door broke. It turns out there is a very cheaply made plastic part that clips to the body that keeps each side door shut. Without it, the broken side doesn't positively seal. Online, the replacement part costs $85, and includes the entire door gasket. I've never had a large appliance break in so little time. Conceivably, I will need to buy 5-10 of them (2 doors...) over the life of the refrig. I'm disappointed - styling is great, but quality says Don't Buy LG! read full review »

Within two months time of delivery, we began to notice that the material (which had a raised nap) was starting to flatten down and get shiny in the area that I sat on.

I called American Home Shield to get the pipe repaired. They sent out Union Plumbing (License #43524-A) who came out and cosmetically repaired the pipe on May 1, 2009.
