(More customer

back into the portable generator business. They sold their portable
generator line to Briggs and Stratton a few years ago but they are
back to producing portable generators again. I always liked the
Generac portables. They were quality products at reasonable prices.
I've owned a Generac 4000EXL for 12 years. It is a great little
generator and the only one I knew of at the time with an OHVI
engine. My experience with the 4000EXL is the reason I purchased
the XP8000E.
I ordered my XP8000E over the Internet. Due to the bad ice storm in
the Northeast, none of the local dealers had them in stock. I paid
$50 less than Lowe's sells it for and that included free liftgate
delivery, which was nice since this unit weighs 200lb. In
retrospect, the ability to return it to Lowe's would have been
worth the extra $50.
The XP8000E was well packed. The packaging is ingenious and if you
follow the instructions, removal is really easy. On the down side,
following the instructions means you are cutting all four corners
of the box so if you have to return it, you have no box. The
generator is mounted on top of a heavy cardboard support. It
suspends the generator just enough so you can slip the wheels on
without having to lift it at all. Once the wheels are on, the
generator rolls easily out of the now flattened box. The only thing
I didn't like about the old red Generac generators is that the
wheels were under the motor end and the handles were on the
alternator end. The alternator is the heavier side of a generator
so you were lifting the heavy alternator end whenever you moved it
around. I was pleased to see that the new models are designed so
that the weight is over the wheels rather than the handles. This
makes moving the XP8000E almost as easy as the 4000EXL, even though
it weighs twice as much.
The next step was to fill the generator with oil. The XP8000E
Operator manual specified 3 different oil viscosities depending on
ambient temperature. There was no oil that could be used for all
temperature ranges. This is a nuisance because in New England,
temperatures can vary widely and I didn't want to have to change
the oil 4 times per year (for each season). Conversely, the engine
manual for this generator said 5W-30 full synthetic oil could be
used from -20°F to over 100°F. Since this conflicted with the
operator manual, I called Generac for clarification. They told me
5W-30 synthetic could be used at any temperature and that is what
they use at the factory on their test generators. I picked up some
MobilOne 5W-30 and proceeded. The first thing I noticed when
filling the generator with oil is that the lower support (a U
channel) is upside down from how it was on my old 4000EXL. The U is
facing up. The support is also directly below the oil fill, the oil
drain and the oil filter. What this means is that it will be nearly
impossible to change the oil without getting some in the channel.
With the old models, it would just run off and providing you had a
strategically placed pan underneath, there would be no mess. With
the new design, the channel fills with oil. Since the engine is
directly over it, you can't get access to clean the channel so the
oil will slowly drip out over the next few days. I'm not sure what
the engineers at Generac were thinking but this is a very bad
design. Next I gassed up the generator. When I removed the gas cap,
I discovered there was a mesh filter cup in the fill tube. This
interesting way of filtering the gas makes it difficult and slow
filling the generator. The filter cup prevents you from inserting
the fill nozzle of the gas can more than 2 inches into the opening.
The filter also restricts the flow so the combination makes filling
the generator very slow. Pour too quickly and you will spill
gasoline everywhere. Considering this generator has a 9 gallon gas
tank, this is a significant inconvenience and another design
flaw.
I fired up the generator after filling it with oil and gas. It
started right up but I noticed a few more design flaws. Generac
went to great lengths to put all the controls on one panel. This
makes controlling the generator easy because you don't have to walk
around the generator to reach the various controls. Unfortunately,
this arrangement is poorly implemented. The choke, which was easy
and smooth to operate on the older models is now controlled by a
cable. The choke positions are vague at best. Also, if you are not
very gentle with the choke lever, you will pull it out too far and
then it jams. If you don't pull it out far enough however, the
generator won't start. It is near impossible to put the generator
in the full choke position without jamming it. Then you must wiggle
the lever to get it aligned so you can push it back into its
socket. Also, the on/off switch and start button, which were
separate on the older designs are combined into a single rocker
switch on this model. Left is off, center is on and right starts
the generator. It takes very little pressure to move the switch to
any of the 3 positions. I could easily see someone inadvertently
pressing start when trying to turn off the generator, thus grinding
the starter mechanism. You have been warned so be careful! Last,
the fuel shutoff valve is extended through the front panel via a
plastic knob/shaft assembly. It is difficult to turn and I'm
betting the plastic shaft will crack from stress over time. So that
is at least two and possibly three more design flaws.
That said, as long as you get the choke to the proper position, the
generator starts easily and it is as quiet as the 4000EXL - Pretty
impressive considering the engine is twice the size. Next I checked
the voltage and frequency. The frequency was 63.5 Hz with no load,
which is excessively high. Most motors will not like this. My well
pump specifically states that the frequency must be no more than
plus or minus 1 Hz. Frequency in a generator is directly related to
engine speed. Higher engine speed equals higher frequency. I
applied a 6000W load to the generator and adjusted the engine speed
to obtain a frequency to 60Hz. I called a friend who also bought
this model and told him what I found. He checked his generator and
also found the frequency to be 63.5 Hz. In conversation, he
mentioned that his generator was running poorly out of the box. I
told him to check to see that the foam element was oiled. If not,
this can cause the generator to run lean. When he examined the
filter, he found the foam element was not installed properly and
was actually folded in half so it wasn't completely covering the
paper element. He suggested I check mine, since he found it
difficult to install properly due to the placement of the filter
housing. I checked mine and sure enough, mine was folded over too.
So far, I was not too impressed with the quality control. I ran the
generator for about a half hour with various loads. Thankfully, it
ran great without flinching.
I shut down the generator and stored it in the garage. A few days
later, I went into the garage and noticed a strong gasoline odor.
Since the generator was the only new addition, I went over to see
if that was the source. It was. I examined the unit and found gas
was leaking near the gas shutoff valve. I checked the tightness of
the hose clamp on the gas line. It was properly tightened. Closer
examination revealed the gas was coming from the valve body. There
are two screws on the face of the valve. I thought perhaps they may
be loose. I took a small Phillips screwdriver to snug them up. One
of the screws was very loose and turned freely. It had obviously
been stripped during assembly. I'm disappointed at this point but
no big deal. It looks easy to replace so I'll just email Generac on
Monday for a replacement part. Hopefully we won't have a storm
before then.
I got a reply Monday with the names of 2 service dealers in my
area. I called Generac because transporting a 200 lb generator to a
dealer 30 minutes away would be a major pain in the back. Plus, I
don't have a pickup and the generator was leaking gas. I had
drained the tank over the weekend but I was unable to get out every
last drop, so a 30 minute drive with gas leaking in my SUV was not
an option. I explained this to the rep on the phone. She told me I
could not replace the part myself because that would void the
warranty. Excuse me? The manual tells me I must adjust the valve
clearance after the first 25 hours of use and every 100 hours after
that. I am qualified to adjust valve clearance but I can't replace
a simple valve? Please!!! I pressed the issue with the customer
service rep. She put me on hold. When she came back on the line,
she suggested that I put a towel under the generator to catch the
gas and bring it to a dealer for repair. My brain's internal
filtering system shut down at this point as I asked her, "You
expect me to drive 30 minutes with a generator leaking gas onto a
towel in my car?" I was persistent and finally she agreed to order
me a part. She questioned me about exactly what part I needed and I
told her the fuel shutoff valve that screws into the gas tank. She
put the order in and told me I'd have it the next day. I was happy
and thanked her. The next day, nothing arrived. I got the part 2
days later. Not great but still not bad. I opened the box and
prepared to install the part but it was the wrong one. She sent me
the valve from the GP8000 instead of the one for the XP8000E. It
would not work in my generator. Working in the service industry, I
know how difficult it is to explain what is wrong over the phone. A
picture is worth a thousand words. With that in mind, I took a
picture of the valve she sent and labeled it "incorrect part". I
also took a picture of the valve in my...Read more›

I've relyied on other peoples review on Amazon. This time, I feel
like I must to help a few people out.
First, my co-workers were skeptical about an electric mower, but
I've had the experience in the past.
Here are some of the benefits:
- you can look under your mower by flipping it over and not worry
about gaz or oil leaks.
- grass is cut from end to end of a yard easier with the flip
handle than those that don't. (that should include all gaz mowers)
Instead of closing in on the middle of your lawn, you start on one
end and finish at the other end. (I like it)
- this mower doesn't retain anything underneath. I didn't know that
some mowers would do that. From my previous experiences, you had to
clean up the mower every couple of use.
- height adjustment is super simple.
- electronic brake. If you release the power (bar!), the blade
stops in a micro second. This is great for safety.
- no smells of any sort (except first few minutes being a new
electrical product)
I wouldn't trade it, and my yard is not small.

at the Milwaukee, DeWalt, etc. cordless combos for years but I
could not justify the price for my week-end warrior needs. This kit
gave me reasonably well-made and well-powered tools at a price I
could afford. My son and I built a real tree-house (8x10, 10 ft.
high!) over the Thanksgiving using these tools with no problems.
The tools all performed and held up well through that 40 hour
project. I was glad to have the cordless feature up in those trees
200 feet from the nearest electric outlet. You really do need to
cycle the batteries a few times before you get the max life out of
them, but the one hour charger does exactly that. I'm also a fairly
slow worker(nobody's paying me), so that I rarely needed a new
battery before the charging one was ready and if I did, that was a
good time for a break (like I said, nobody's paying me for this
work). I can see where a professional would need more run-time.
If I were using these tools everyday, I'd shell out for the
professional brands, but for my needs they are just right for the
price.

powerful fans. The quiet mode is effective for light jobs and
almost silent. The look is great- very high end. It was very tough
to install so if you have a contractor that can do it then go that
way. Also, the elliptical curve across the front takes some getting
used to. I hit my head on it a few times before learning the

5-foot, old rickety wooden ladder. I have pulled its last splinter
out of my hand. :-) I'm very glad I followed the other advice to
only get "as much ladder as you need." I almost bought the 22-foot
Little Giant, which would have been way too much ladder for me.
This 5-to-8 foot model is perfect for anywhere I need to reach
inside the house or the first level gutters outside.
The ladder is a little heavier than I expected, but easy to manage
with my small build (5'5", 135lbs). It adjusts much easier than I
expected, and is a very sturdy ladder. I love that you can set the
adjustable leg to be straight up and down. That lets you climb
right up close against a wall -- no excessive reaching or
struggling to position the ladder just right.
Best of all -- FINALLY! -- a choice to buy something "Made in the
USA". As rare as that is these days, it was refreshing.
A great, high quality ladder - I highly recommend it.

(More customer
reviews)Although reviews can provide you with a good
overview of what's out there, I still like to actually see (and
touch) the tools before buying them. So I went down to the local
store and checked out their offerings. I was attracted to the
Hitachi C10FCH miter saw because of the quality of construction,
the ergonomics, the physical size and the price (ordered according
to importance).
Quality of construction: nicely machined table, substantial hinge,
smooth movement of miter and bevel adjustments.
Ergonomics: horizontal handle with conveniently located on/off
switch (pistol grip only makes sense on sliding miter saws). A
laser helps with aim.
Physical size: feels light and compact compared to other models in
the same class.
Price: is reasonable since the saw comes with an integrated
laser.
Performance: Excellent cuts (with the right blade)! With the help
of the laser, I routinely cut base board within 1mm (=0.04 inch).
Tool feels precise, solid and is easy to use.
Drawbacks that pursuaded me to give only four stars:
Although the price is reasonable, Hitachi was skimping on features:
Table extensions are optional and the included blade is very coarse
(good enough for 2x4s but you need to invest another $50 for a good
blade that does moldings, base board, etc.), no dual compound
capability.
Although the laser is extremely (!) useful, ideally one would like
to have a dual laser calibrated to either edge of the cut. I find
myself recalibrating the laser from one edge to the other edge a
lot.
One last thing, the saw dust bag setup is not very efficient. It
catches maybe 50%, probably less.

right in. Throws off a very bright light typical of LEDs - not a
warmer light you may want for home use. Well made and functional
with the many positions you can direct the beam. It IS a beam, by
the way - somewhat of a spotlight but the sides give off a glow.
Because of the primary beam I use this for close work and do not
have it on at all times. The dimmer is very handy, though, and
allows me to keep it on low when I'm not working. The small base
takes up little of my desk space which is appreciated. Why 4 stars
and not 5? It simply is overpriced. It's not THAT high quality an
item and, hey, it's a desk lamp no better than many others for sale
at 80% less. So why did I buy it? I like how it looks and it fits
in my work environment. In other words the art value sold me.
You'll have to decide if the price works for you. In summary -
nicely made, functional and pretty but pricey.

I bought this product because I read such glowing reviews on the HD
website and on other websites that talked about different brands of
tubular skylights.
It took 3 attempts to get an undamaged skylight delivered from ODL.
I needed the 14" which Home Depot did not have in stock so I
ordered online from Home Depot. The product comes directly from the
manufacturer however. Before installing the skylight I blamed FedEx
for rough treatment and the flimsiness of the box it comes in for
the damage. After installing the skylight I see now that it is
extremely easy to bend and damage just by handling it and trying to
adjust the angle.
My husband and I are very experienced do-it-yourselfers. There are
few remodeling projects that we have not tackled. I thought this
would be a really easy project based on the video and what I read
from other's who had installed it. It probably is fairly easy if
you have a straight shot from the hole in the ceiling of the room
through the attic to the hole in the roof. We unfortunately did not
have this situation. We required 2-48" extensions. Because of
having to deal with an awkward angle and the extension tubes this
project took us the better part of a day - approximately 7
hours.
The installation in the ceiling is a snap. The roof was pretty
straight forward. It was working with the tubes that was a
hassle.
My biggest complaint is that the angled parts of the tube do not
slide easily and get bent up as you try to adjust them to the angle
you need. In general all the tubes bend and dent easily causing
them to be difficult to seal when you attach them together.
While trying to adjust the angled tube from the roof it came apart
and no matter how hard we tried we were not able to get it back
together and just had to tape it which did not give a good
seal.
I was so excited to get the skylight installed and bring light into
my dark kitchen. The end result was disappointing. I'm not sure
why, but the skylight does not bring much light in and certainly
not the amount as was advertised even on a clear, sunny day. It
could be because of all the difficulty we had with the installation
and the bent up tubes.
If you plan to buy this product I recommend only buying directly
from the HD store. That way you can return it if you have the kind
of trouble we did - damaged when you open the box and parts
breaking during installation.

(More customer
reviews)The below is a running commentary on this unit,
from original 2008 purchase to 2010.
This is a great looking unit with a lot of nice features. We may
just have gotten a bad one, so take this for what it is worth, but
we have been pretty frustrated. The unit keeps showing Code 1 and
refuses to work. I called Electrolux Customer Service, who I must
say were honest and stated that their engineers had misdesigned the
computer board and they were having a lot of problems. Said they
had redesigned the board and would get one right to us. About four
days later a repairman changed the board out. Only problem, it is
still showing Code 1--a leak in the tub. So we have a brand new
$1300 dishwasher that a contract repairman must completely take
apart to fix a seal in the unit. Not what I would expect for a
high-end product. Wish we had gone with the Bosch.
Want to amend my review a little, and raise this to four stars. The
above unit was defective. Lets face it, no company is perfect and
everyone produces a lemon every once and a while. I must say that
Electrolux customer service was great to deal with. After I told
them that the panel replacement had not fixed the issue, they
immediately stated they would replace the entire unit. We have the
new unit in and it is a very nice dishwasher. Its quiet, does a
good job, and has a lot of room inside. My only complaint would be
that if your dishwasher is to the left of your sink, sometimes you
will accidentally hit the touch panel on top of the door. Not a big
issue though. We are happy with the unit, so I take back my words
about preferring the Bosch.
Well, I will go down to 1 star. Now, almost two years later, and
all of the above, guess what we got with the new unit--Code 1--a
leak in the tub, only this time it was also leaking water on the
floor. I called customer service, but they told me that it was past
its warranty, so I would have to fix it on my dime. After I
complained about the trouble we have had with the unit, they agreed
to send a parts kit and a repairman, but stated this would be the
last time they would cover anything. If they hadn't agreed parts
and labor would have been $350 on a unit less than two years old.
Got the parts kit quickly, and the repairman changed out the
parts--including one of the pumps which his tests determined was
also failing--it had become really loud. It is now working,
although I have no idea how long it will be before the next
problem. At the next problem, I'm not calling Electrolux, I'm just
throwing this dishwasher out and buying a Bosch. I would never buy
this dishwasher again, nor frankly would I buy any additional
Electrolux appliances. My family members have $500 dishwashers
which have lasted far longer and frankly clean the dishes better
than this appliance. This is not an Electrolux of European quality,
its a Frigidaire with Electrolux stamped on the outside. Electrolux
is doing itself some serious damage in the US market with
appliances like this. We also have their gas range, which I have
also rated poorly, because of some easily avoidable poor design
features. Avoid this dishwasher!!
December 2010 :) The happy face is because sometimes in life you
just have to laugh!!! So after the last fix it has lasted 8 months.
Tonight Error Code 1. I'm staying true to my last comment, its
going in the garbage and I will buy a Bosch tomorrow. This is
clearly a case of a manufacturer foisting a defective product on
the public. I'm going to review the California Lemon Law and
possibly discuss with an attorney. This is a $1300 appliance!!!
Quite simply, unbelievable!!!

in Austria and wanted to find the same for home. It is great
because it combines the ability to have variable light in the
entire room or to have a small reading lamp with a more intense
concentrated light. However, the reading lamp is adjustable to
shine just on the book and not into your eyes.

appliances for new and remodelled kitchens. Among the worst
mistakes we've made was to specify an all Viking kitchen -
refrigerators, range, dishwasher, and compactor. Every one of these
appliances has failed! Our client has now been without a
refrigerator for a month, because Viking was out of stock of a
part! The dishwasher had to be replaced. The range has required
hundreds of dollars of repairs, and still doesn't work properly.
Our advice? Avoid all Viking products!

reviews)We chose this for our media room because of its
modern styling (and
my wife wanted to add an overhead light to the room.) The fan and
remote
operate perfectly, no wobble, smooth, quiet, the best. The light is
another matter. It's one tiny 100w halogen bulb in a frosted glass
dish.
The light output is meager at best, they should have put two
bulbs
in there for it to have any real usefulness. (see customer
images)
The light assembly is also not up to Casablanca's usual high
standard.
The globe/dish mounts into a cheesy stamped aluminum pan with a
bayonet
type mount ( push in and twist to lock ) My assembly must have been
on
the extremes of manufacturing size tolerances (large diameter
globe,
small diameter aluminum pan) because it wouldn't rotate and lock
all the
way. When I tried to unlock it, the entire lamp pan assembly
started
turning instead of just the globe.
It's jammed in there, half locked, so I'm not worried about it
falling out, but when the lamp finally blows I'll have to remove
the entire fan
assembly from its mount in the ceiling and take it to the service
center
(which thankfully is in the next town) and pay to have them repair
it.
I contacted customer service, and this isn't covered under the
warranty. So if you really need a room light with your fan, buy a
more traditional Casablanca design like the Panama II 6645A.

(More customer
reviews)My wife bought us this lamp to finally replace
the hideous dorm-room classic standing halogen lamp that I had
bought at Staples back in my bachelor days. That lamp was perfectly
functional, and definitely provided a good deal of light, but we're
grown-ups now, and it was time to let it go. This lamp is
beautifully made, and looks great in our living room. We both tend
to be fairly conservative in terms of our taste in decor, and we
were worried that our room might look like some tie-dyed
psychedelic wonderland once the lamp was turned on, but our fears
turned out to be completely baseless. We put three CFL bulbs in it
(being the yuppie, tree-hugging hippies that we are) and the lamp
produces a soft, warm, pleasing light, and it looks gorgeous as a
piece of furniture, even when it's turned off.
One thing to be aware of, is that this lamp doesn't provide a whole
lot of illumination, so if your goal is to flood a room with
brilliant light, this isn't the lamp for you.
