Whirlpool / Water Heater
July 20, 2007
I bought the most expensive stainless steel tank with the 12 year guarantee??? Replaced the smart board one time. Worked fine. Then 1 year later I had no hot water. I called in and they sent another smart board. It flashed 5 times to tell me the bottom element didn't work. I hired a man to replace it. Then the smart board flashed 4 times. Told me to replace the top element. I replaced the top element. Then the smart board told me the bottom element was bad??? I went out and purchased another water heater. It had been 2 weeks with no hot... read full review »

Sears Calypso Washer
July 19, 2007
I bought a Sears Calypso Washer made by Whirlpool in 2001 and it has been fairly reliable until recently (but we did not use the machine heavily). Last year it started having problems during the cycle, stopping to display the SL and LD lights. I figured some ways around the problem but now it is impossible to make the machine work. I also find that participation in the litigation closed just two months ago! From what I am reading online this machine is a repair nightmare so I am going to junk the washer buy a replacement and place a lifetime ban on Sears and Whirlpool products. read full review »

Blue Dart

Couriers are meant for safe and efficient method of ferrying one's correspondence... But Blue Dart, a courier service in India flouted the definition and the package I received was in a damaged state... It was my car's insurance policy, quiet an important document and it was torn, yes literally torn... On talking to the customer representative, he blatantly told me that there's no provision for a complaint... And even forget about it if you accept the package...

Room to Room Furniture Store
July 18, 2007
In November 2006, my finance and I purchased a leather couch with a Protection Plan. February 2007, we noticed a tear in the left couch cushion due to a staple that was protruding from the inside of the arm of the couch. We contacted the store to have the couch serviced and left the staple where it was for the service rep to see for him/herself. The rep came out, removed the staple, and assured us that he would let his superiors know that we need a new couch cushion. We then called the store and spoke with a customer service rep named... read full review »

Eureka Forbes / Aquaguard Reviva
July 17, 2007
In August '06 I bought an Aquaguard Reviva system, after Eureka Forbes convinced me that the ground water can be used for drinking as the RO unit would remove all the salts from the incoming water. After using the unit week, all of our family members experienced severe stomach ache after consuming the "purified" water from the Reviva system. So, we stopped using it until we bought an overhead tank to store draining water supplied by the corporation. The overhead tank was then connected to the Reviva system, and it functioned... read full review »

Gardner White - Canton, MI
July 17, 2007
About 5 years ago now, I purchased an entire bedroom set at Gardner-White Furniture in Canton, Michigan. It is a nice looking pine bed with headboard and footboard. The mattress sits on 4-5 wooden slats that run across the frame all the way down the center. At the time of purchase, the salesperson didn't inform us that we would be voiding our warranty if the frame didn't have a center support. Actually, there was never any mention of a center support. And why would it be sold without it, if required, any way? Our mattress now... read full review »

Viking Appliances

A year ago I purchased a new Viking Stove. Top of the line. After a year I used the self clean feature on the oven. The latch would not release after the cycle was completed. I called Viking and was told my warranty had expired. I called the appliance dealer. It was going to cost $400 to repair the self clean. I paid $5600 for this piece of crap. I ended up using a hacksaw to cut the latch and don't use the self clean. Besides this when you try to use the oven sometimes it will light and sometimes it won't.

Bought the Yardworks Cordless Reel Lawnmower (model ( 60-1535-8) in May 2007 from Canadian Tire in Winnipeg. Used it twice before I realized that buying this mower was a great mistake.
