Question: what doesnt the Hoover remove?

The Hoover is very well made, and to my surprise, right here in the USA. Of course some subassemblies are from Mexico etc., but still, it is nice to have something US made in the household. It cleans the carpets very well, although on stains and heavily soiled areas you do have to slow down drastically, and do the shampoo/dry cycle several times. However it does get everything but very dark and old stains out perfectly well. The holding tanks are somewhat mismatched, because you have to empty the dirty water tank before the cleaner solution tank goes dry, however, this is a very minor issue. I would highly recommend it.3/2008: Update after 2 years: The Hoover is still going strong, even after some abuse by "borrowers". This is a high quality machine, and our carpets are cleaner than they have ever been.

Question: What happens if you don't have enough material inside to balance it out?

I bought this to melt down butters, solid oils, and beeswax for lotion-making.It works very well in melting things down, but it's better suited to smaller batches because of it's small size.My only real gripe is that it does not stand in place on it's own; if you don't have enough material inside to balance it out, it will fall over. For me this is a bit of a nuisance when I'm just starting to add things to it, because they may spill out of the container if I don't balance the handle on something else beforehand.Other than that, it works well.

Question: What is sturdy for its size?

I love this ricer. It is extremely sturdy and heavy for its size, and is just a very high-quality piece of equipment that can be used for all sorts of things -- soups, purees, spaetzle, squeezing moisture out of wilted greens, etc. I also love that it doesn't have holes on the sides. My last ricer had side holes and I was constantly squirting boiling hot potato bits all over my kitchen. This ricer really aims the riced items downward into the bowl, which I appreciate.

Question: Why impresses the reviewer about the mattress?

The fact that it came undamaged after being compressed and folded to fit into a rather small box says a lot about the quality of the springs. I bought it to use with this frame http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005WXO984/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1 and it fits perfectly.The mattress is firm but not too hard, very comfy. I don't understand what some reviewers are talking about when they say it's so soft that they sink into it. Two adults who weigh about 290lbs in total have been sleeping on it with no complaints.It is very nice for the price so I'm not going to be too picky. The only cons are:1. The underside of the mattress is a few layers of that cheap reusable grocery bag material. It tore a little bit when I tried to drag the mattress to a different room.2. It is heavy and very floppy, so it can be difficult to stand it on it's side and carry down 2 flights of stairs when we move out.Overall a very good purchase.

Question: Where was the grill purchased at?

This is the 2nd Grill Press that was shipped. The 1st one was damaged at the handle but as soon as I contacted Amazon about it, they very promptly (the very next morning) shipped out the replacement press with no problems. This one is perfect and I am very pleased with it. This press fits my 10 1/2" cast iron skillets PERFECTLY.I am a loyal Amazon customer, I love their return policy and their customer service. As long as I can receive free shipping, great prices and wonderful service, I will continue to be for many more years.

Question: When did I use the pan for the first time?

I used this pan for the first time yesterday after watching it for months on Amazon. I made an orange chiffon cake and it released beautifully (I did use some cooking spray) and looked very professional. Makes a great presentation with very little extra effort. I did wash by hand as I would like to preserve the finish on this pan for as long as possible; the crevices didn't pose too big of a problem (not like, say, washing the Nordic Ware garland mini bundt pan by hand). It has a nice heavy feel to it (as their Platinum Collection products tend to)and I would say I'm very satisfied. I ended up getting it when the price dropped to twenty-five dollars, but the day after I had ordered it the price went down to twenty-three dollars. Amazon apparently does not do price adjustments anymore, so I couldn't get that difference in price back, but just be aware that it has gone that low in price and if you are patient and don't need the pan in a hurry it will likely go down in price again. Free shipping was great.

Question: When was the Potato Ricer received?

We received this OXO Potato Ricer last week and already have used it for riced/mashed potatoes, spaetzle, and egg salad...what fun! This is one of those items that any cook really can do without, but why not give it a try anyway! The sucker is huge, but we managed to prepare some fine eats, and it really was not that difficult to use. The ricer has long metal handles and a good-sized black plastic food-safe hopper that holds a lot of food, and the built-in pot rest worked perfectly on the side of the pan. The packaging was easy to open, which is always a good thing, and inside there was a small piece of paper (2 1/2 x 2 1/2") with instructions for use, and for cleaning. On the packaging itself was pictures of the three settings and explanations, very simple. My wife has had absolutely no problem changing the settings, removing the outer disk for cleaning (only handwashed the unit, so far), and overall she is pleased with it's performance. She had never made spaetzle before and was happy with the results,... and by the way, the fluffy mashed potatoes were incredible!P.S.: I made the egg salad...delish!

Question: What happens when you put the paper in the press?

This patty press is just perfect. You can't beat the price. It cleans up in a snap. We make 1/4 lb. and 1/2 lb. burgers without much effort. The bottom part has a piece that lifts out, so you don't have to worry about the burgers sticking. The bottom piece impresses a dimple into the burgers, so they cook more evenly and don't puff up in the middle. The shape is perfect and fits nicely on the bun. One thing we discovered by trial and error is: if you are using the patty papers for freezing, don't put the paper in the press. Press out your burgers first, then layer the papers in between the burgers to prevent sticking when frozen. When you put the paper into the press, the paper gets embedded into the meat and it is very difficult to peel the paper off of the frozen burger.

Question: What does the user heat in the microwave?

Great product! I have to say this lunch warmer heats food quite evenly, much better than a microwave. My husband and I keep stash of healthy leftovers in 2 cup round glass containers in the freezer to grab and go. These work beautifully with the lunch warmer. The night before, I choose lunch for the next day, put it in the frig to partially thaw and my lunch is ready to slide into the crock pot warmer once I get to work the next morning. No spills on the way to work as it is partially frozen, and the 2 cup amount is below the max fill line on the metal insert. I must say I am looking forward to our next road trip as I plan taking 2 crock pots, a cooler and an inverter to help minimize the monetary and weight gain expense of travel. I've read complaints about the cord length (3 ft), but any longer would make it awkward to wind and carry. Liked this product so much, I bought 7 of them as gifts, all greatly appreciated....even got a lunch text photo from my son, the engineer and a big thank you from my Marine! Enjoy

Question: What kind of milk gets the best froth?

Mr. Coffee has outdone themselves with this coffee maker. It's important that you read the instructions and especially important that you prime the unit before you use it. Anyway, I've given this maker a good run creating all sorts of coffees. I've tried different grinds and types of beans, all with excellent results. The unit itself is primarily plastic but everything fits nicely. I have only one concern with the obvious connection made between the main unit and the milk frother. It is a bit tough pushing it in and later removing it. Only time will tell how well it really is. However the coffees you create using this maker is as good, if not better than what you can get out. Take your time to learn it, care for it and you'll be pleasantly surprised. I had originally put this on my Amazon Wishlist and was surprised when I received it as a Christmas present. I had it up and running the day after Christmas and have been happy ever since. One last hint.... Remember to use cold milk to get the best froth !!

Question: How does the screen work?

I just love this screen. With the metal feet that can rest on a counter top without burning it is a big plus. The size of this screen fits all my skillets. Heavy enough to stay put on the skillets. Well made construction. I just threw away all my other screens that are flimsy and with plastic handles that have melted. I would recommend using a mitt to pickup with the metal handle. Just as a precaution. I doubt that the handle will get hot, but I just feel more comfortable using a mitt. it is easy to clean and works great.

Question: How long have they been looking for a new set?

These are short and hard to knock over. My parents had knocked over and cracked their taller acrylic set. The dispensing end is on the top so no annoying crumbs on table or cabinet. My parents like the little screw on caps which I might have thrown away. Also good If you live in a humid climate where salt cakes. Great genuine ceramic grinder, easy to turn. Since my parents are older I was worried about ease of use. These are very easy to use and adjust grind coarseness. I have been looking for these after buying a similar set 10 years ago. They are thick glass so very tough and seemingly impossible to break.

Answer: 10

Question: What was the product the customer purchased?

This is just your basic, cheap, hecho in China colander. I would have given it a score of three, but felt that the presence of little metal slivers on the handle weld spots deserved a lower score! I removed the slivers with a pair of needle nose pliers, and they came off easily enough. Also, there is a label attached to the bottom with a glue that doesn't come off with normal washing. In fact, I haven't been able to remove the glue residue and suspect that it's going to be there a long, long time.

Question: How often does the author bring out her actual vacuum?

The Siwvel Sweeper G2 is a handy little dvice to have around - it's great at picking up crumbs, dog food, broken glass and dust - the ony thing I would say is that I have a large dog and I have to keep cleaning the brushes because the hair winds around the brushes - but for quick pick ups it's fantastic. I use it on the steps, hard floors, in the bathroom - We are getting ready to sell our house and it's great to just zoom through the house first thing in the morning. I gave my second one away to my son but now I am sorry I did because it would really be handy to keep one on each floor. It stores neatly and is great for picking up crumbs under tables etc. My house stays a lot cleaner and I only have to drag the vaccum cleaner out once a week - good for me! Good for my back.

I use it on the steps, hard floors, in the bathroom - We are getting ready to sell our house and it's great to just zoom through the house first thing in the morning. I gave my second one away to my son but now I am sorry I did because it would really be handy to keep one on each floor. It stores neatly and is great for picking up crumbs under tables etc. <hl> My house stays a lot cleaner and I only have to drag the vaccum cleaner out once a week - good for me! <hl> Good for my back.

Question: What area of the brewer is the best place to for the filter?

This Kuhn Rikon brewer seems as though it is a good idea but is poorly made and designed. I did get one good cup of brewed coffee from it after I settled the filter in the bottom of the brewer so it didn't leak coffee grounds under the filter. If it is working well it will give you a nice cup of coffee in a French press style in which you expect some fine coffee grounds and extra body in the brew. With French press style coffee and even more so with the Kuhn Rikon there will be some unavoidable sludgy grounds that will settle out in the bottom of your cup. Overall I think you are better to stick with a much nicer looking and better made French press brewer for exampleBodum New Kenya 12-Ounce Coffee Press, Blackor one of the Abid "Clever" brewers if you prefer filtered coffee (Clever Coffee Dripper Small). The push button drain feature on the Kuhn Rikon worked well for me but the locking drain feature never worked well and quickly broke. When I made tea the first time I discovered that some of the leaves had slipped under the filter and were stuck under the filter and hard to remove. I think keeping the filter well settled in the bottom of the cup will prevent the tea leaves slipping under the filter as well at least for a while.

Question: What was the rack needed for?

This rack is thin and lightweight and to be honest, I wondered if it would hold my spices without the clips breaking or coming off the base; not a problem. Follow the directions for placing the clips, and arrange your spice containers before sticking the clips to the base. You will be pleased with the results. Keep in mind when ordering, that these racks will hold small glass spice bottles and small to medium-large plastic spice containers. The racks are great for what they're intended to do, they are not a cure-all for every "spice cabinet need", use them accordingly and you'll be happy with your purchase.

Question: What else has to be checked beside measurements of the baking sheets?

I do quite a bit of baking. I was using old aluminum baking sheets which I have probably had for 30 years. I always figured it wasn't worth buying new ones because it wouldn't change the taste or outcome of anything I baked. Well, the new sheets don't make anything look or taste different, but, man, do they make baking easier. I made several dozen cookies for Christmas. No greasing the baking sheet, no spraying it, no parchment on it. Just put the cookies on the sheet and put it in the oven. No stick at all. And clean up was a simple wipe off with warm soapy water and rinse. I wish I'd done this sooner.In response to some reviews, please have the sense to check the measurements of the baking sheets, which are stated, and the size of your oven. Many newer ovens, particularly those with convection fans in the back, are smaller than ovens used to be. This was the size I wanted which fits perfectly in my oven. Please make sure before you buy that they fit in your oven.

Question: Did customer service have an explanation for the way it looked?

When I first received this, I was very disappointed. It looked like water stains all over the spread. It did not look like a design.I could not figure out if this was suppose to look like this or not. So I contacted customer service and they didn't know either.They were gracious enough to reissue a new one and I sent the other back. I can now say that the new one is no better.It isn't a bad comforter for the price but know that when on the bed, it gives a faded, very used look. This is the style I now assume. It is made to look that way. So if you like the worn out in spots, faded look, this is the quilt for you, like a nice pair of worn out jeans. I think the first one was worse and I'm keeping this one. My living room is dark and it will work. But don't expect it to be a uniformed color like it shows in the picture. The backside is, but the front isn't.

Question: What crunch a little when you adjust them?

I have been reluctant to try these pillows because other reviewers mention the "crunching" sound they make when you move. It's true they crunch a little when you adjust them, but it didn't take long to get used to it and it doesn't bother me. There was no smell with this pillow, but I did need to remove some of the buckwheat to make it softer and more pliable. It's a pretty firm pillow, but I like that I can adjust it and the shape holds when I build a support for my neck and an indentation for my head. I have tried quite a few pillows due to a very bad neck and back and this one works well for me. Anyone who suffers from neck and back pain knows that each person is different and what works for one person won't necessarily work for someone else, but this pillow is definitely worth a try. It works for me.

Question: How long have they had this item for?

I've had for 8 months now. I've modified (11/11)my review from when I purchased 3/11. What I like:- two heat settings & a non-heat setting- froths like it should- non-stick surface- shuts off automaticallyOnly one time when I used it, it did not shut off automatically and when I smelled it burning I turned it off. The milk was brown - but this is what I like about the non-stick surface, it cleans so easily. I can't imagine buying a frother that does not have a non-stick feature. I can go for weeks w/not using it, then I can go for weeks when I use it daily. So far it's been turning off automatically. I love using the heated setting so the milk doesn't cool my coffee. I use a mixture of heavy creme and milk and it still froths nicely. 2% milk froths even better. After I make the froth, I use a spatula to put in a coffee mug, put the mug under the Keurig dispener and have the coffee go right on top. I can stir afterwards and the froth still stays frothy! So far, it's produced great froth, consistently.

Question: What the NuWave heating element is made off?

I first purchased the NuWave and loved it until the plastic dome started cracking. Rather than buy another dome, I figured it would be better to purchase a product with a better design such as the Super Wave Oven which has a big glass bowl and a cover on top which should last longer and is easier to wash. The only problem I see with this design which the NuWave overcame is the heating element. The NuWave's heating element is a true infrared carbon heat element which is thick and only glows a little which I can tell will last for a long time. The Super Wave's heating element is a halogen light tube which won't last longer than a year - thus minus one star. The other thing annoying is the loud beeping noise when setting the heat and time. Other than those two things, the oven is great so far.

Question: What was the rating?

I was searching all over the place for an extremely accurate scale and finally settled on this one. Now that I've owned it for almost 3 years, I can confirm that it's extremely durable and totally accurate. I've done comparisons with very expensive laboratory and M.D. scales, and have found this one to be right on the money. I even use it to weigh my cat just before bringing him to the vet. His weight at the vet is always the same as what I measure on this scale. This is a solid, heavy weight and sturdy scale, and certainly much better than anything else I've used in the past. When they say precision, that's exactly what they mean, right down to a tenth of a pound. You won't be dissatisfied if you purchase this scale. I give it 5 big stars.

Question: what hasn't the author tried

i purchased this for cooking pizzas when we go RVing. i use a camp chef stove and recently purchased their pizza oven. haven't tried the oven yet, but it's clear that if you buy that you will need one of these "peels" (oversize spatula) to get things in and out. i really like this size. the flat spatula part is nicely sized, thick enough not to bend, but thin enough so that it'll be easy to get pizzas (or other) on and off. the handle is the perfect length! it'll get your items in and out of any residential or camp oven, but it's no so long as to make it a storing hassle. i thought the price was very reasonable too.

Question: What were the cabinets to be used for?

I wish two things----the cabinets were bigger, and they didn't wobble back andforth after they're put together. I wish the shelf space were deeper. I wish the packages of shelf pegs had more pegs in them; but that's four things....oops!I needed them (2) in my kitchen since my house was built in 1889 and backthen the people were teeny-tiny and kitchen cabinets were not very large,and closets were tiny for these tiny people, so I got these cabinets for mykitchen to hold the extra pots & pans. As far as putting them together, I paida handy man to do that for me. They didn't look too hard, though. I recentlyput my own gas barbecue together----maybe that's why it didn't look hard.Bottom line: they're cute but they wobble a little bit.

Question: How many stars does the reviewer rate the product?e

My favorite thing about these mitts is that they can get completely wet on the outside but still remain dry on the inside because of the silicone exterior and cloth-padded interior, providing both utility and comfort. My only criticism is that in the rare circumstance when I'm holding something VERY hot (e.g. a tray fresh from a stove on 400F+) for 15+seconds my hands will start to get hot. This is a situation I almost never run into, so, if I could, I'd give this product 4.5 stars.Recommended!

Question: Can you see through the product?

After many years of using olive oil and buying different dispensers that were disappointing , this Rachel Ray product is great. It looks good on the kitchen counter and is easy to fill.Olive oil comes out In a perfect stream and after using , no drips down the sides, because of the design of bottle.I like that it is opaque, and I feel it does keep the olive oil fresher.Retail stores carry this product, but I had not been able to find the eggplant color, so ordering from Amazon was the way to go and the price was good.I am pleased with this purchase!

Question: how long will coffee stay hot in the Timolino?

This Timolino was backed by very credible experts, yet it is NOT a TRAVELING tumbler, as they claim it to be. Though coffee will stay hot in it for hours, acting as a small carafe, you cannot succesfully mobilize it - for the lid drips out coffee. The lid is not deep,even slanted - so coffee easily spews out of it. If they changed the lid, to put a closure which at least snaps into place, it would be useful as a mobile coffee tumbler. The closure slides and DOES NOT LOCK INTO PLACE. Ironically, if it tumbles, coffee spills out and ruins anything nearby. The price is too high for what it really does, since you have to leave it in the office or at home.

Ironically, if it tumbles, coffee spills out and ruins anything nearby. The price is too high for what it really does, since you have to leave it in the office or at home.

Question: What type of beaters does this vacuum have?

I bought this vacuum on the recommendation of a major consumer product review organization; while two vacuums had higher ratings, this one cost about half as much. For the most part, I am glad I did not spend the extra money.First and foremost, it has adequate power for the job and the rotary beaters are efficient. I had used an old Hoover for over 12 years and thought I was getting my carpet clean, I was deluded. The difference in the looks of the carpet was immediately apparent. The Eureka was far more effective. Secondly, it is clean. It uses a traditional replaceable bag to collect dust but has a HEPA filter over the exhaust port to collect fine particulate. There was no fine dust in the air or dust smell. The accessories mount on the body of the vacuum, but while convenient they are not completely secured. The brush falls off occasionally. It is very easy to shift from floor cleaning to the hose attachments; you simply turn the handle of a valve on the upper body of the vacuum. The extensions are long enough to reach an 11 ft ceiling. Shifting to different carpet pile heights is also easy and convenient.The consumer organization gave two reasons for not giving this vacuum a top rating. First they said it was not the as easy to maneuver as it might be. This is true; other vacuums are easier to shove about and this one is not power assisted. They also dinged it for being noisier than the two more expensive vacuums. While this is probably true, after the ol' Hoover I was delighted at how quite it was. Also making it quieter would affect the price. The plastic of the body could be a bit more rugged but again this would increase the price. My home is small; if you really spend a lot of time behind a vacuum, you probably want to spend a bit more. This lack of rugged construction probably explains the huge variability in the product reviews. Caveat emptor - the instructions advise calling Eureka customer service and NOT taking the machine back to the place where you purchased it if it is defective. This could be a problem. And - some assembly required.All-in-all, good vacuum, value for money.

Question: It was not effective in collecting dust when it rotates in place, what was it?

There are a few cautions, based on using it extensively once and less extensively a second time. It could be heavy for a woman, especially a small woman, to handle. The intake is smooth plastic, but I suspect it could scar some furniture, or at least leave minor tracks on the surface; it did not on my furniture, but the manufacturer should buffer the end with a brush or felt. There is a brush that can rotate into place, but I found it not very effective in helping collect dust. On the plus side, I used it for at least an hour the first time without having any loss of power from the battery. It has very good suction, and the position of the intake can be rotated to several angles and then folded under for storage or battery charging. I can't say how the filters work, because I've not had to replace one thus far. Bottom line, the Black & Decker Pivot Vac is probably better for the shop than the home. I don't have a shop, and it works pretty well for the home getting into places that, in my case, have collected dust for a long time.

Question: How many stars did the author give this product in the review?

I did a bit of research on frothing pitchers because I'm teaching myself latte art. The default pitcher that came with my espresso machine is harder to get the frothing right compare to Espro. As much as Espro wants to advertised this pitcher is easy to use no-brainer...the bottom line, you need to learn and understand how to froth milk correctly using your machine's steam wand, each machine is different!!!I'm giving a 4-star because once you are using the steam wand correctly, watching your temperature, this little pitcher does what it claims to do...a nice cup of steam milk with micro foams. This pitcher is definitely good for only one drink.

Question: What is a hassle to install?

Cheap? Yes. Powerful? Enough. Quite? No. Easy to Use? Not. Durable? No. Only two out of five. It is a hassle to install the beaters... and worse is that they are held in place (somewhat) by a inner plastic ring. One of the beaters came out during use and it stripped the inner plastic ring; now it will not latch in place. You can get a durable Cuininart HM-50 for the same price (no brainer) or the Consumer Reports recommend KitchenAid Power 5 for about $10 more Do yourself a favor and look around. Not recommended

Question: What brand name of the meat thermometer did the writer use?

We picked up a William Sonoma remote meat/temp probe a while back. After long use, the probe cord material starts to crack (especially if you let the grill get too hot). ONce the insulating material starts to crack the probe reading becomes variant and intermittant if at all. I ordered this on line as I could not find a replacement for my "William Sonoma" Brand. Works like a charm. I've booked marked this part as I'm sure I'll need another one in a year or two .. but then we smoke and grill all the time

Question: What produce does the person frequently juice?

Before I make a purchase I always check the reviews on Amazon. I did not however purchase the NB-900 thru Amazon because I wanted to be able to return it to my local box store in case the bad reviews proved true for me too.I've always juiced my kale greens and apples and had to get used to the smoothie texture. I call mine a "thickie" because I put less water in the 32-oz. Blending for 60 seconds macerates the kale. However, following the advice of "TheFruitarian" on You Tube I now blend for no longer than 30 seconds. This makes the kale more "al dente" and I'm okay with that. Adding a banana makes the drink smoother.When I add less water the smoothie has the consistency of applesauce.This is my 4th day on kale/apple smoothies and I'm not looking back.

Question: what do you need to be careful about?

I bought this crock pot for my wife when I saw the TV commercial with the locking lid. That part is very cool. However, I didn't look much closer. This crock pot doesn't have any whistles or bells. There's just a knob with three temperature settings. I suppose that's all that matters though.I like the size and quality of this cooker. The crockery insert is well made and seems very durable.The locking lid is really a nice touch. It's really convenient for taking hot dishes to work or other events. You need to be careful to seat the lid just right before you latch it. Give it a slight twist back and forth to make sure it's straight. Then after you secure both latches, try to twist the lid again. If it moves much, unfasten the latches and make sure the seal is clean and then latch it again. The lid has a nice seal that should prevent leakage when it's latched.Just remember not to over-fill it. It's human nature to over-fill a crock pot. You just keep adding ingredients until nothing more will fit. Try to resist this temptation, especially if you're taking the pot "to go".And if mobility really is important to you, check out thisCrock-Pot SCBAG Travel Bag for 7-Quart Slow Cookers, Black.

Question: Why did vegetable keep slipping around?

Don't believe the videos. The blade that holds the vegetable was too small and the vegetable kept slipping around and falling off while trying to turn it. Also, one of the tines was missing from one of the cutters and I was nervous about more of them coming off in my food. I really wanted this to work because I have another brand that spills veg juices on my counter while spiralizing. But I would rather clean up juices than worry about pieces of metal in my food or waste money on a gadget that doesn't work as advertised. I filed a claim with Amazon and got my money back.

Question: Which two slices are unevenly cooked?

I have the CPT-180 four-slice toaster. As was the experience with several other reviewers, the two center slices toast very unevenly--no matter what the setting or the kind of bread. (And, yes, I have read the owner's manual from cover to cover.) I returned my previous CPT-180 to Cuisinart because of uneven toasting; the customer service was quick and very courteous. I was impressed. Alas! I am not at all impressed with the performance of the replacement. It has the exact same problems as the one I returned. I think there must be a design flaw. From Cuisinart? Sad.

Question: On what side of the display would the numbers not show up?

I searched and searched for an inexpensive timer to replace the 3-way one I had for years and loved. This was the closest thing I could find, and was disappointed. It is cheaply made, and the buttons are hard to push and don't always register. The timer itself works fine, but the display is terrible. You can even see in the picture that there are numbers visible in the background. The first week I had this one, I couldn't read the bottom row because the background was so dark and the right numbers wouldn't show up. That problem is intermittent now. I will continue to look for a better replacement.

Question: How long will the user be without a bed?

I purchased this adjustable frame and the frame broke into two pieces in less than seven months. They obviously don't know how to weld two pieces of metal. In pursuing action on my warranty I find I will be without a frame for the bed for over two weeks at least. Leggett and Platt are not very helpful. Seems I need to wait for the parts and then arrange for a service call. And so on. I was told thatconsidering the damage to the frame they would probably just replace the item. Oh no, they won't. So I will be without a bed for over two weeks and then I wonder once they fix it will it be broken again in another few months. Do yourself a favor, don't buy this product.
