Eureka 2971BVZ Altima Bagless Upright Vacuum Review

Eureka 2971BVZ Altima Bagless Upright Vacuum
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I loved this vacuum for three months. It picked up pet hair dander and dust better than most. I babied the machine, cleaned out the dust container mid use and washed the filters and dust cup after each use. Then it happened, a loud noise a small amount of smoke and the belt had snapped, the brush mount melted and the housing destroyed (from the melted brush mount). Eureka representatives said the part that failed was not under warranty and has refused to replace or repair my relatively new vaccum. They even said it was my fault for not keeping it at a high enough setting for my carpet (I keep it on the highest setting). It would have cost me more to repair than replace the machine. I have had great luck with Eureka products in the past but with their response (or lack thereof) I will not buy a Eureka again. Do yourself a favor and don't buy a Eureka Altima.

Hamilton Beach 04163 TrueAir HEPA Air Purifier with UV Germicidal Light Review

Hamilton Beach 04163 TrueAir HEPA Air Purifier with UV Germicidal Light
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
In the last couple weeks I purchased two air purifiers: The Hamilton Beach 04163 and the Kenmore Progressive 335. The Hamilton Beach was for my bedroom, which is about 200 square feet, and the Kenmore was for my 350 square foot living room. Both were purchased because of my allergies and fairly heavy dust buildup in my apartment.
I chose the Hamilton Beach because of it UV light, since I suspected mold in my apartment, and the Kenmore because of its value for money based upon a Consumer Reports' review and its cleaning capacity, which is one of the best of the affordable air cleaners.
The Hamilton Beach is well built, sturdy and has features not offered by most air purifiers: UV light and air quality sensor, which regulates the purifier's speed. I do agree with someone's earlier comment that it is fairly noisy, even at the lowest speed. If I had received the Hamilton Beach before the Kenmore, I might not have been so critical, since the Kenmore, even at high speeds isn't very loud. The Hamilton Beach makes a higher pitched sound which makes it difficult to sleep with it on and it can be heard through doors. The Kenmore really can't be heard when standing just a few feet away nor can it be heard through doors.
I find that both work very well, but, if I had to do it again, I would opt for a quieter air purifier (the Kenmore) for my bedroom and pass on the added features of the Hamilton Beach.

Mr. Clean Magic Eraser Extra Power Cleaning Pads, 4-Count Boxes (Pack of 4) Review

This product is amazing. Any hype it has on TV, ads, wherever, is very, very well deserved.
I just cleaned my shower with the eraser yesterday and it was actually _fun_. I got gunk off that I never thought I would. I had to scrub hard in some places, but the job it did was really incredible. I had some soap residue on one part of the shower and I thought the sponge wasn't working on it; I turned it over and realized it had just _picked up_ all the gunk onto itself, and all I had to do was rinse it off. And not only did it clean the other dirt, it made it flake off so it was easy to brush away and down the drain, just as advertised. You can use them for a long time as well: two of them (one box) cleaned the entire shower: three walls and basin. And when I give something a once-over, I'm confident it's actually clean.
If you haven't tried this product, do. It will save you the two most valuable commodities of time and energy. But remember, buy a lifetime supply, 'cause they're so good they'll probably be discontinued within a year.

Sanyo HPS-SG2 Indoor Barbeque Grill with 120-Square-Inch Nonstick Cooking Surface Review

Sanyo HPS-SG2 Indoor Barbeque Grill with 120-Square-Inch Nonstick Cooking Surface
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have the larger Sanyo electric grill and it is great, just a little too big for my kitchen counter. (it is out in my RV, working great) But this baby is just right for my kitchen.
It has a little less wattage than the bigger model but actually seems to heat up a little faster. I like the design of the grilling surface better than the design of the bigger unit (deeper grooves, and a good lip around the edge). I like the water tray that is black instead of aluminum in color, and it is easier to remove and pour the little amount of water out (1/2 cup of water is used to keep the smoke down).
My cooking routine is to set it up, pour a 1/2 cup water into the tray, spray a little canola oil on the grill, turn the control up to high to pre-heat for about 3 minutes, then slap the seasoned steak, burger, chicken, ribs, etc. on the grill. I sear in some good grill marks on each side, then turn the heat down to medium and finish cooking at a slower pace, depending upon thickness of the piece being cooked. My first try was a T-Bone steak, and it was great!
After the food is done, I turn the heat control off. For cleanup, I place a couple of dripping wet paper towels on the grill surface, turn the heat control back to high for a minute or so. When the steam starts rising of the wet towels, I shut of the power, and just wipe down the grill with those same paper towels, then dry, it cleans very easily.
Nothing is quite like the burning and flames of a good charcole fire, but indoors or out, this cooks very, very well, with bare minumum of effort.
I do recommend aluminum foil to cover the grill and the food to speed pre-heating and to keep splatters down. I think I may get some disposable shallow metal foil trays that match the grill size, to use as lids, they look like they should work well.

Enjoy the great taste of food cooked on the grill all year long with this indoor barbeque grill. The countertop appliance features a large 120-square-inch cooking surface with a nonstick coating for searing foods just like on an outdoor grill. In addition, excess fat drips into the removable drip pan below for healthier cooking, and by filling the drip pan with water first, food grills while the kitchen remains virtually smoke-free. The powerful 850-watt heating element provides adjustable thermostat control for cooking food at the right temperature for the job, whether it's bratwursts, shish kabobs, or veggie burgers for the whole family. Other highlights include cool-touch handles and base for safety, easy cleanup thanks to the nonstick grilling surface and dishwasher-safe drip pan, and a stacking design for compact storage when not in use. An instruction manual with recipes comes included. The 850-watt indoor barbeque grill measures 13 by 18-1/5 by 3-1/2 inches.
