rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author giniroberts - We began our quest for a new oven armed with little more than past experiences of 25 years, using both gas and electric ranges. Were we surprised to see the differences in stoves today! I thought this would be a simple decision. A large oven with a...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author giniroberts - Who needs one more small electric appliance? Who needs to try to keep up with yet one more electric cord? That's exactly what I thought, until one hot and sticky day in May when my air conditioning went out at home and I had company coming over for...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author giniroberts - I attended this movie with my 19 year old daughter who thought I might enjoy a laugh or two. Well, I did laugh. Not because it was so funny, but more because it was so corny and somewhat unbelievable.
