Would you buy a brand new never reviewed range?
Comments (4)Found one possibly pertinent comment on this range regarding depth and counter top: http://www.homedepot.com/p/GE-5-6-cu-ft-Slide-In-Gas-Range-with-Self-Cleaning-Oven-in-Stainless-Steel-JGS650SEFSS/204403812#customer_reviews Found three reviews on GE site itself: http://products.geappliances.com/ApplProducts/Dispatcher?REQUEST=SpecPage&Sku=JGS650SEFSS...See MoreWhy do people write lengthy Amazon/Good Reads book reviews?
Comments (18)I also don't understand why folks write reviews that are plot summaries; I always imagine that their high school English teacher required them to do this and somehow they just carried on thinking that's what other people want. I do write reviews of many books I read, I'm not sure if any of them qualify as "lengthy" reviews. I write them to say what I would say if a friend asked me "Hey, is this book worth reading?". I say what I liked or found useful, what I thought was off, and if it's a novel, I say people who like X, Y, or Z might like it, and if it's a book having to do with my profession, I say what kinds of practitioners might also find it helpful or what they may want to be wary of. Mostly I write reviews because I find the process helps me to "digest" the book, but also because I want to do for others what good reviews have done for me--lead me to great books and away from bad ones....See MoreAmazon Prime..would you?
Comments (53)We have had prime for years, even before they offered streaming. Somehow I received my first year free and there has been no looking back. What I like the most is not having to drive around looking for whatever it is I am trying to buy, it always seems to be a challenge. That said I do review prices between other stores/websites such as Target, and Home Depot, for example Amazon does not even come close to meeting the price I pay for bird seed through Home Depot. Even with shopping other websites and locally for many things, Amazon is a huge timesaver and worth the money for me....See MoreAmazon reviews. Wrote my very first one.
Comments (10)Just wanted to update. I just got an email from the manufacturer. It said that even though this has been a very reliable product, they would like my mailing address to send a new one. They would also like to send me tags to send them the defective one to check it out. I am very happy about it. First, usually a manufacturer that does just sell wholesale sending the product instead of coupons doesn’t happen often (not that I complain often, once every three years if that) and even happier for them to have a professional look at it. I am very wary of the second lamp I have. Having the house catch fire, especially if I am not home and my dogs are locked inside is one of my biggest fears....See More- 3 years ago
