yet another question about viburnum
Comments (2)They don't have to be that close together. Within 100 feet should do it. Anywhere in a normal sized yard that looks good would be the way I would go....See MoreYet another question about tipping
Comments (8)I find in the long run you kind of get what you pay for with those cheaper hair places (and I don't mean just with skill, but with attitude, and professionalism). They tend to go a lot quicker too. That said, I've noticed the good stylists often move on to other salons rather quickly. The one you like may not be there forever, or even next month. Or, she may be inconsistant and not remember how she cut your hair last time. Glad you had a nice experience and, I think $4 is perfect amount if you are happy with your cut. I don't think you need to go over board with tipping. A $20 tip at a steak house is one thing, but there's no need to tip $20 for the chili at Steak 'N Shake no matter how much you like it or how nice your server is. You don't have to pay this new girl $50 just because that's how much you paid you last stylist. It's a different set up and a different place. A 20-25% tip is fine for a great hair cut....See Moreyes, it's me with yet another question about the kohler stages 45
Comments (118)Hi there smm5525. I studied ergonomics while I was a kitchen designer. Ergonomics has been a major factor in my sink designs. I based the height of the ledges on my many years of studies. Cutting at that level does not force a downward angle. If you look in the video above, you will see there is no downward angle required. It is very comfortable to cut veggies, etc. I actually pioneered this and many other ideas. The double tiered sink has three patents on the design. I also came up with the rear corner drain about 18 years ago. I saw many sink companies with rear corner drains this year at KBIS. I am so glad to see that. The sinks with interior ledges, both single and double were also my ideas quite some time before everyone got on board. I have about 13 patents on my designs. Sadly, some companies have copied them figuring I am a small company and I would not get in a fight with the big guys. They are right! All in all, I am pleased to see my ideas spread through the industry. Dino Rachiele...See MoreYet another question about Lee Industries cushion choices
Comments (4)I have the cloud nine and find it too hard and uncomfortable. Reached out to Lee and they said they could only replace the cushions with the same type (which if they are uncomfortable, why would u want more of the same) but would they would put a note to make them softer. Still hard and uncomfortable. So essentially a waste of cushions and shipping altogether for Lee and myself instead of trying to please a customer. The fabric (linen looking) also pills badly, and they told me to shave with a sweater shaver or sand w sandpaper to get off all the little balls. (I have no pets so this is just normal wear) This is with calling them soon after receiving the couch. So they aren’t going to do much for you if the fabric isn‘t holding up or you are not satisfied with the cushions. A very expensive sofa to purchase for such poor customer service. Yet being that I don’t wish to add this big thing to the landfill and need a sectional, I will be purchasing new cushions and very expensive slipcovers. (Likely spending more than I would for a new couch) my friend has the same sofa, different cushions, and it’s very comfortable, so I have hope. Unfortunately she doesn’t remember which one. So far cloud nine is hard and maintains shape and down is comfortable but needs constant fluffing. So I’m thinking that maybe leaves the Haven. Maybe you should look at Restoration Hardwares cloud collection. If I purchased a new sofa, that was one I was considering. Good luck on your purchase getting stuck w one for several thousand dollars that you are not happy with is definitely a bummer....See MoreMelissa Kroger
