which one should I purchase
Comments (10)Well I purchased the Kubota ZD331P with the 60" Pro deck. I wound up getting the light kit and the 12 bushell dump from the seat bagger free. Well he says free if I pay it off within 5 years which wont be a problem. I gave them half down which surprized the salesman. I like it so far I wound up having to buy a duel axle trailer with the deal it is a very heavy mower at just over 2100lbs (this thing weighs more than my wifes car) full of diesel and the bagger onboard. (Went thru a weighstation). The trailer I had was only rated for 1600lbs and was only single axle. I needed a new one anyway. They let me take a Badboy mower as well to demo for a month but I.m.o I dont like the open engine design plus it rides a little on the rough side. I may keep it for my own yard the wife likes it says the kubota is just 2 big for her taste. It should do allrite for my 3 acre property. The kubota will only be operated by me. My partner has a scag standbehind that is used for backyards while I do the front. Considering my mower will not fit thru most gates....See MoreAnyone familiar with Franklin Iron Works?
Comments (25)This response sounds like it was written by a Chinese Communist Party office. Chinese products are not quality products. look at how many times Chinese toy makers sent toys to the US with lead based paint. My familt ALWAYS looks for products made in the US first before ever buying from China. China And Xi have shown they are an Enemy of Freedom and is a problem to be dealt with....See MoreBulletin from Mobile: I have all appliances working!
Comments (21)Shades, they make a special kind of cord for times when the plug is behind a piece of furniture. It is a flat "pigtail" that you plug in and it is a heavy duty extension of almost 12 inches that has a three-hole female plug for your fixture/lamp/wifi/whatever to plug into that. Hopefully that would allow you to keep the furniture against the wall. I got mine online from Amazon. I'm sure you can ask Google to give you sources or product options. Believe me, I think there are more types of wiring options than there are different kinds of light bulbs! Dimmable bulbs are taking light bulb buying to a whole new level. You read the fine print is how you know they are NOT dimmable. (The online spell checker does not think "dimmable" is a word and keeps changing it to "dimple." Crazy machine thinks I don't know what I want to say.) Because it is my observation that if they are dimmable it should be printed on the box somewhere as a selling feature. My electrician patiently explained to me several things about dimmers. You cannot DIM lights on a 3-way switch.....supposedly, or presently anyway--I'm sure tomorrow someone will remedy that oversight! You cannot dim plugs, but I'm thinking that my dimmable LED rope lights will be no problem. I will verify that, but at any rate, I can add to the plugin another plug that has a remote switch that connects to the rope lights and it dim dims the lights! Sometimes I get confused and forget a step required to accomplish wondrous things, but I seem to recall that was the way I dimmed the rope lights I installed around the sun porch up in Massachusetts. Now I've told you everything I know about dimming lights.....and dimmable ones, which may be a newly coined word for the English language. It was a quiet day in the house, at least after the road crew jack hammered the pavement in front of our driveway where the gas company had tied in our new 2 pound gas line. It is about 4 feet away from the spot where the city sewer connects to our house, and where we will be doing some sewer digging (and tearing out cement driveway) within a month, probably taking out the repairs made in the same location/house number. I guess we will have our very own speed bump before it is all over. Note also I baked stuffed bell peppers in the oven of my Bertazzoni range. I used spaghetti sauce so I guess that is appropriate as the first real meal cooked in my new kitchen. I could get used to having a real stove to cook on. It's been a LONG time without one--I threw out the old electric range in 2008 after we bought the house we'd rented for two years. Since then it's been the microwave/convection oven and a two-burner Waring hot plate. I got the Breville Smart Convection toaster oven when I knew I would get a M/W drawer. So having a range in my kitchen is an awesome thing. Can you guys see me doing the happy dance here? :-)...See MoreHeirloom and Amazon - maybe you should read this folks.
Comments (31)Just a follow-up here re Heirloom Roses. I ordered two from their website, then two more from their website, then changed my mind twice and changed my orders! I got the first two - in one gallon pots (far from the bands I got from the former Heirloom folks). I re-potted both of them into 5 gallon cans for later fall planting. I was very impressed with the roots fully holding the soil, but not pot-bound. Stems looked healthy. they are already growing and leafing out, even though I got them in the midst of a record heat wave for us. I had also found an Heirloom rose I wanted on Amazon, so ordered it there because I coudn't be bothered to go get my purse and enter my credit card info for the Heirloom site. I got the Amazon rose right away. My other two from Heirloom that I ordered a couple of months ago come tomorrow or the next day. The Amazon rose also looked great, and when I re-potted it to larger can the roots seemed perfect. I talked with someone at Heirloom who explained that Amazon requires immediate shipping - so that's why you get them right away. AND, I learned that with Amazon you get a 30 day guarantee, but direct from Heirloom you get a one year guarantee (or warranty?). Via the Heirloom website you can be part of the buds and blooms, but not via Amazon. So...if you want rewards and a one-year guarantee - shop the website. If you need to "hide" your rose purchases, shop Amazon. So far, I couldn't be happier with my Heirloom purchases. As I say above, ask me after a year if I still feel that way! :-)...See MoreRelated Professionals
