This website is definitely a scam! I ordered a table and it never came.

Baum Plumbing/Mr. Rooter
November 13, 2008
I had them come over to repair a pin hole leak in a shower pipe. He cut about 6 inches off and sweated on the new piece. I had already removed the drywall and he could reach the pipe easily. He started off by saying that this would be difficult to do. The leak was about 5 inches off of the floor. He got here at 11Am and started the repair at 11:20. He was done at 11:40 AM. Total charge was $299.90. I called their office and was told that they charge by the job and if the repair would have taken two hours the price would be the the same...yeah... read full review »

Stay away from Cottonwood Futons, Madison WI. From Cottonwood Futons, I purchased a futon frame, mattress, drawers for the frame, and a cover for the mattress.

My wife wrote an email to Cottonwood and we were referred to Tech. support.

Baton Rouge Water Company
November 13, 2008
Anyone who lives in Baton Rouge knows how inflexible our water company is. Forget about getting an extension, and if you are young and just starting out, i.e. no credit to speak of, you can expect to pay up to $150.00 for your water service deposit. If you are lucky enough to actually get service, you WILL be subjected to some of the rudest women in Baton Rouge, bar none. But this is not my complaint. My complaint is this- for the last 8 business days I have repeatedly (stay at home mom, here, so I do mean REPEATEDLY) called 225-925-2011... read full review »

So this place has been notified that all the pillow designs they sell and promote from a particular criminal enterprise in Texas have been stolen from hard-working, honest local artists, along with info on where to find numerous posts about their long-running con games and guess what? Jayson H&G apparently is more interested in dishonest profits than in stoppng theft from artists! Very sad, if you ask us. If we find that the situation has changed, we'll update the post...otherwise, if you buy from this store, you are supporting theft from artists! read full review »

Select Comfort Beds
November 12, 2008
My husband and I bought a select comfort bed in 1998. The bed was fine for about a year or two then it started to have problems keeping air in the chambers especially my husbands side. The center began to sink leaving no support. Trying to pump more air into it did not help the matter at all. Now both sides are sinking in the middle.We bought two pumps, the second one was refurbished costing 120.00. still problems. These beds are not cheap ours cost about 1500 dollars.We have a multitude of back problems that are costing us money, their customer service people are extremely rude they are ripping people off bigtime.

I got a pool from them, and it isn't what they said it was. I got the upgrade from the $395 pool as well. No chemicals, just a gallon of bleach a week. NOT! You have to use algaecide, and other chemicals as well. Not as many as a regular pool, maybe, but chemicals anyway. Not to mention, I was financed through Puronics, and I signed a contract for $14, 000 for 7 years.

Earlier this summer I had a company install a sump pump in my crawl space. As a temporary measure I ran a cheap 20 ft flex line into the yard. Last week I hired Mr Rooter to run a permanent drain line to the street (70ft.) They quoted $1, 645 which I thought was high, but worth it if the company did quality work. They started the work the next day and spent 2.5 hours on the job and stopped 20 ft short of where the line discharged from the house and about 6'short of the street...

Then returned to the phone and said she made an error, there would be no credit, but good luck, and thank you for shopping HSN! What gives? I paid HSN not Innova. I want my 700.00 back! The truly sad outcome of all of this consumer fraud, is the millions of pieces of cookware that are going to end up in our landfills, and I feel HSN should be held accountable! read full review »
