Tread Designs
May 25, 2008
Job: new treads/risers for stairs and replaced new handrail I am actually writing a word of CAUTION. You will get what seems to be a low bid. The costs keep trickling upward, though, through suggestions. For us the failure to remember a much needed newel post (which he left out and is in code violation), and trim work. So don't overlook a higher bid in favor of a better price. Cheap doesn't mean good, and is especially true in this case. Promises will be made, and not kept. "We'll mask... read full review »

Maytag Appliances

I purchased $4500 of Maytag appliances in September 2005, A French Door Refrigerator, a stainless steel tub dishwasher and a gas stove with convection oven a double door. In September of 2006 the refrigerator broke, was still under warranty and the repairman said that this refrigerator was a piece of junk and don't be surprised if it breaks down again. Sure enough in May 2008 the refrigerator broke. I had to purchase a new refrigerator and it wasn't a Maytag. In March 2008, the dishwasher broke. The motor seized up.

Poor service received when I contacted Sears about my air conditioning unit, which was purchased from Sears, was not cooling.

After checking the unit I was advised that the compressor fan motor was bad and had to be replaced. The technician had one on his truck and replaced it and billed me $348.

Centerpoint Energy Houston TX
May 23, 2008
Centerpoint is incapable of maintaining it's equipment. Frequently, as often as three times a month, a line fuse blows in my neighborhood with a boom and the power is out again. Sometimes it is followed with a louder boom and the transformer is gone again. With the temperatures in the 90's and high humidity, no air conditioning represents a health risk. You cannot contact a live person at this company unless there is a fire or a power line down - the only option is voice mail with limited choices. When a line fuse blows as frequently as it does, why can't they FIX IT and keep it operating??? read full review »

I just recently bought a dining set and then an office set. The salesman was incredible! He had a tape measure and helped me and my husband decide on the perfect pieces.

The part finally arrived yesterday, the 19th. Attempts to get Char-Broil to refund all or part of the shipping charge were met with a flat "no". read full review »
