Backyard Masters
June 19, 2007
After visiting the first time and being told we could basically drop a new pool of the same size into the current decking, we were laughed at by the installer who quickly told us that was ridiculous. The decking had to be removed. So we did! Stupidly we returned to Backyard Masters and ordered a pool. Upon calling the installers that Backyard Masters recommended, we get told that the installation will cost almost $5oo more because the pool we purchased "was a difficult pool to install" After calling Backyard Masters, we were given... read full review »

United Furniture Warehouse
June 18, 2007
I promised myself to post on all possible websites this experience of mine. I went to United Furniture Warehouse back in July of last year (2005) to look for some furnitures. I was about to move to an apartment the following month. I ordered a couple of items, bed and bed frame, dining table, sofa set, computer table, entertainment center, chair and mirror. I asked them if they could deliver the items first week of August as I need even just the bed that week. The Sales Person promised me that they can deliver it on time as the... read full review »

Amana Gas Range
June 18, 2007
Amana gas range, Model No. ACF 3325AW, worked well until-- 5 years after purchase--we tried the self-cleaning feature... disaster. Trim on the top of the door melted, which was easily fixable, and the igniter apparently shorted out. Service man essentially claimed the cost to fix and susceptibility to future failure made purchase of a new stove to best choice. Whirlpool (aka Maytag, Amana, and probably other brands) would make no concession (oh, out of warranty. so sorry) even though they recalled other stoves in the 3315 and 3335 model serie... read full review »

Snapper - Riding Lawn Mower
June 18, 2007
Because Snapper has a reputation for high quality lawn mowers, and I have been pleased with my experience with them in the past, I purchased a 16hp - 42" cut rear engine riding mower in May of 2000. It was considerably more expensive than some other mowers I considered. The cliche' that "you get what you pay for" is certainly not true in this case! I have had nothing but trouble from this mower! The drive mechanism has failed 5 times since I've had the mower. A riding mower that you aren't able to drive i... read full review »

I can verify that Kelly O'Neal at Design-Legacy (or Legacy Design or whatever he and his thief of a partner are now calling their con game) is a liar and a thief and a con man. They commissioned designs from me, accepted delivery, were given an invoice and I haven't heard from them since (it's been about six months). Surprise, surprise!

Hitachi

I have Hitachi AC. The electronic circuit board of AC got damage. I called Hitachi Authorized Mechanic to solve the problem. He replaced the circuit Board with new one. He also did some soldering on circuit board. When he started the AC, the compressor of my new AC got damage due to faulty soldering on chip board. It might happened due to shortcircuit. This happened due to lack of technical knowledge to mechanic. Now who will trust on Hitachi Authorized Mechanic. read full review »

I went to the SEARS store where I purchased it and the salesperson said that this was typical - all components not necessary for the operation of the appliance are removed.
