Pros and cons to door-mount trash cans?
Comments (19)O. M. G. I just went to the rev-a-shelf website. Now I know it is true that this whole business is peopled with completely obsessive folks; it is dawning on me very slowly how utterly outclassed I am. As an inveterate mess-retainer, married to a hopeless slob, I really didn't know how much effort was devoted to de-stuffage-ing. Zelmar, when I first read about your compost setup I couldn't picture it and really was unclear of its utility. I just might become a convert. Someone, plllog perhaps, noted wanting a lid for their compost. It may depend on local conditions, but I've found that lids on compost are more trouble than they're worth. You'll be dumping the goods before it starts to smell and the lid just interferes with acquisition as well as de-acquisition, plus it gets dirty and needs cleaning (before such time as it just breaks of course). I had a beautiful ceramic vase-shaped compost bucket with an iris painted on it by an artist in Monmouth, ME -- it kept breaking and I even bought a new one. But I've given up on that; compost bins need bonking on the compost walls. Now I use a square 2-quart food service plastic bucket; perfect size, shape, etc. I've never mounted it on a door but I bet it could be gerry-rigged as zelmar has above. But again, I don't even see the need of a top. Just install a wire cage for the bucket so it will lift out and be done with it. Even if there are dogs or skunks around, a kid-latch on the cabinet door should help....See Morecorian integrated sink/countertops -- pros/cons
Comments (95)Hi All! I have learned sooooo much on this site. Thank you Mr. Corlett. I have had Corian countertops since 1998 with a granite composite under mount sink. Love the Corian, not the sink so much because it seems yellowed since installed. But I do a lot of canning so the sink has put up with a lot of beet juice and boiling hot water with minimal distress, no cracks. Just clean with Soft Scrub and bleach sometimes. We are now building a house. I am again using Corian for the countertops. I am considering either a Corian integrated sink 850 or an LG-HiMacs integrated sink 3118. I do not like the sink drain in the center of the sink as in the 3118 but that sink is an inch and a half longer than the Corian so better for skillet handles to fit in sink. Do you have an opinion as to the staining or cracking or other issue of either product I might consider before making my final decision? Thank you. Cynthia...See MoreTwo Soap Dispensers? Pros and Cons? Placement?
Comments (28)Love the pros and cons and the vote to do what works for me, as well as advice on what has worked for YOU! All important considerations. I had read in older threads that some experienced enough aggravation with Never MT that they did not recommend them. I've never had one and never experienced any aggravation with filling a dispenser from the top, so I am not considering Never MT this time either. Something just jogged my memory, though, about how the dish soap dispenser isn't helpful if it cannot be mounted closely enough that the soap dispenses INTO the sink rather than onto the counter or onto the side of the sink. So, I might make my decision after the counter fabricators tell me how close they can mount the dispenser to the sink....See MoreKitchen Faucet: Wall-Mounted vs. Counter-Mount
