"I was very fortunate to have Noah Fardo be my lawyer in my malpractice suit. Not only did he successfully represent me but also during the pretrial months (the case ended up being settled out of court) he kept me very well informed, and if I had a question promptly and effectively replied. He is both an excellent lawyer and an extremely nice person, who helped calm my distraught reaction to what to me was a serious injury. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a skilled, compassionate lawyer."
"When my uncle died unexpectedly in his apartment after the local utility company shut off his heat, I decided to ask several lawyers if they felt that the company was negligent. Attorney Noah Fardo as the only one who looked deeply into the details of the case and then decided a wrong had indeed occurred. He'd call to update me through every stage of litigation, and when he had any news at all to report. I appreciated, so much, the personal touch he had with my case. I have to say, if there was an attorney who was ever so determined, and unrelenting, it's Noah Fardo. Now my case has been successfully won and the estate received a large settlement. Thank you, Noah!!"
To everyone at Flaherty Fardo LLC: I wish to express my deepest gratitude for all your proficient help regarding my assessment appeal and your success in getting great results. I cannot thank all of you enough (especially Noah) for all of your hard work on my behalf. I have sent a check for your services, and again a million thanks!
Attorney Fardo was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in regards to estate planning for my grandmother. He was able to assist my family with many complex issues and saved us a substantial amount of money. I would definitely retain his legal services for other issues that may arise in the future and would highly recommend him to anyone seeking legal counsel.
We were represented by Noah Fardo in a 2012 and 2013 real estate tax assessment appeal for our home in the Bell Acres/Sewickley area. Noah did an outstanding job. I am a former attorney and business owner with no prior experience with Noah and his associate Nicole Hauptman. They did an outstanding job in explaining the legal issues, giving clear and understandable advice and in communicating with me. I would highly recommend them and would definitely use their services again.
"Thank you Noah for the past 5 years of helping our business grow. You have been in our corner without hesitation giving 100% each and every time. You have always made yourself available and I appreciate that. You have never been intimidated, and I am so proud to say that in every single case, we have had favorable outcomes. What has amazed me most is not only your professionalism, but also your ethics. There is no doubt our business is a success because of your help. Thank you so much."
"I have been in business for 9 years and never dreamed I would need a lawyer to help receive payment for work I did. But when a customer refused to pay for services I already rendered, I did not know what to do. I called Noah Fardo and we immediately had a plan of action in place. Noah was very professional yet persistent and in no time at all we had settled the matter and he was mailing me a check. What a lifesaver."
Whenever unforeseen obstacles have come at us, you have been there to advise, assist, making our lives less stressful and allowing us to focus more on each other as we deal with our loss. God Bless you for that! And our thanks also go out to such a warm and gracious staff.
Dear Mr. Fardo, Thank you for all your hard work and accepting me as a client for the case you just resolved. Your professionalism and exemplary work ethic came across as a first class lawyer. If I ever need a lawyer in the future, I will definitely call upon you as well as recommend you to anyone who would need your service. Your office staff was friendly and accessible, every time I needed to contact you by phone, as well as reach and speak with you.
I am very pleased with the outcome, along with my entire representation with Flaherty Fardo from the moment I placed the call to them. The service I received was prompt, courteous and highly professional. My attorney, Nicole M. Hauptman, won me a favorable determination and was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her and the entire team at Flaherty Fardo, LLC. Thank you so much!
Noah & Nicole, 16 months ago I started a process to lower my home's taxable value to a level I thought was fair and that I had anticipated receiving when I built my home. After hours of research, emils, phone calls, hearings, and conversations with various attorneys, I thought I would never see the light at the end of the tunnel. I greatly appreciate your ability to review my case in great detail, understand my perspective, and guide me down a path with your expertise that I was struggling to find on my own. This agreement has taken a very huge load off of my shoulders that I've been carrying around for some time and I can't thank you enough for that.
When the latest Allegheny tax assessment upped our taxes on one of our primary properties over 50%, my quest was to find the right contact to help me fix this issue. I was referred to Noah Fardo and Nicole Hauptman for an Allegheny County real estate tax appeal. Several lawyers/law firms we have relationships with referred them, basically saying they are the best, and I am happy to say I agree. They first tutored me on how the process worked, what options I had, potential outcomes and action plans for each scenario. They were always available if I had questions, and basically walked me through the process. I was very satisfied with the final outcome of our appeal, and felt their their fees were reasonable. Not only are they proficient at their craft, Noah and Nicole both have great personalities, and made an arduous process quite palatable.
I wanted to thank you for all of the questions I've been asking. You and your firm have been terrific throughout this entire process, as I have no idea what I am doing. I also recommend you to all of my friends. Thanks again!
Dear Noah. Thank you so much for taking on my case. I appreciate your professionalism and the sensitivity that you exhibited towards me and my situation. If I am ever in need of legal assistance, you would be my first choice! Thanks again, to you and your staff, for everything.
Ms. Hauptman, we wish to thank you for the unparalleled professionalism in taking care of our property re-assessment. We did not expect the speed in which you came to a resolution of our appeal. We are pleased with the results and the amount of reduction in assessed value. We appreciated the immediate response to our questions and emails. Your firm will be highly recommended to friends and family. We will certainly contact you if we need any legal assistance in the future.
Nicole, thank you for your expert handling of this. I hope you know how thrilled my family is with your results at the Board of Viewers. You've taken a load off my grandmother's mind. I truly appreciate the professionalism, courtesy and promptness you showed us.
I retained Flaherty Fardo, LLC to defend me against the city's appeal of my property tax assessment. What made Flaherty Fardo stand out was the quality of the information available on their website, as well as the knowledge, experience and professionalism of its lawyers and staff. Thanks to their skill and advocacy, the city lost its appeal and I will not face an unexpected and significant increase in my real estate taxes. I was extremely satisfied with Flaherty Fardo's representation, and while I hope that I will never need a lawyer, it is comforting to know that I can turn to them.
Hey Noah, just wanted to say thank you again for all the hard work you did while working on my lawsuit. As you know, I contemplated on whether or not I should proceed with a lawsuit for almost two years (time was almost up to file) before I finally decided to contact someone. So I did my research at my local courthouse and found your name on a judgement search index. The office did a wonderful job with such short notice and my time running out to file. I felt so comfortable talking with you that I knew I made the right decision to proceed with my lawsuit.
Dear Attorney Fardo, Thank you for representing us for our reassessment hearings and getting us a favorable settlement! Throughout the appeal process, we found you and your staff (especially Nicole Hauptman and Kelsey Ramsdell) to be accessible, professional and on top of the issue. We would definitely seek your services in the future if the need arises and recommend you to others.
Dear Noah, Thank you for your willingness to represent me, all your skilled hard work and your very swift response to all my many emails. I really appreciate your taking on the case, as Dr. (intentionally omitted) did something very wrong; Again thank you.
Shawn was wonderful to me-I couldn't have hired a better attorney-he makes you feel as if the world is NOT going to end just because you are accused of something- If I were to ever need another attorney again, I would go with Shawn- All in all, when everything was said and done, not only was I extremely pleased with Shawn and his professional manner, but with his services. He took the worst time in my life and made it better. Just by being able to vent to him with my concerns, which he never dismissed, to just having him explain things to me the way I understood, it helped with the traumatic issues in my life. Thanks Shawn, you're the best!
Had a small employment case, and Noah handled it with tenacity. He gave me updates about twice a week and what he said would happen in the beginning is exactly what played out. He acted as a true advocate and was worth every penny.
Thank you so much - we are thrilled - nice work! We do not need to continue the case, as this is a great outcome. Once again, thank you for your excellent work, we are really pleased!!
Noah - Thanks you so very much for your help in resolving the matter with (intentionally omitted). I was very impressed with your professionalism and intellect. Have a Happy Holiday and fun with your family.
"Dear Nicole, Just a short note to let you know that Anne & I are very pleased with the results of your property assessment appeal on our behalf. As you may recall, when we were first notified of our new assessments I went to the internet looking for help. During the appeal process, you and your firm kept us informed of each event in the process and the courts feel for what might happened. As you can see, our new total assessed value is about half of the old assessed value. Thank you again for your & Flaherty Fardo efforts!"
Thank you for informing us of the decision. This morning a copy of the letter sent to my mother was mailed via US mail to you for your records. We agree with the decision and your recommendation not to file an additional appeal. Thank you for your efforts in this matter, providing us with excellent legal counsel and keeping us informed of every step in this process. Best regards.
Nicole, I want to thank you and your firm for such an easy, efficient, and affordable process for appealing this assessment. You have made a difficult thing so easy on us, and have saved us thousands over the next years. Thank you again.
"Noah, I am very pleased to hear that you received our payment; my wife and I were very pleased with your efforts on our behalf – especially the outcome. Thank you very much for keeping us constantly informed with new developments in the case, and for letting us know what to anticipate with regards to how the process typically unfolds. Your steady communication helped to make this a fairly stress-free process. We will definitely contact you again if we need assistance in the future, and will recommend you to our family and friends. Thank you again for all of your help, and have a great end of the summer!"
"Noah, Stef and I would like to thank you for the efforts you and your law firm put into our tax appeal. As you know we lost the appeal twice before and really pretty much had given up, that is until your law firm got involved. Not only did you and your team take on our case but you also handled everything without much involvement from us (I really appreciated when you stopped by my house to pick up needed paperwork, unbelievably awesome!!). Thank you for not only winning our appeal and saving us thousands of dollars but for doing so with professionalism, integrity and trust that is not always easy to find nowadays."
Hi Noah. I received and deposited the check yesterday. I am glad this matter is now finalized. I can't thank you enough for all of your help throughout. I couldn't have had better representation. Thank you again.
Nicole/Noah: Thank you for the update. This is an excellent outcome. We appreciate your representation for this lot and for our residence. It has been a long process, and you have been professional and effective throughout. We are very pleased with the results. Thanks, again.
"Dear Noah, We just wanted to take a moment and say thank you for all of your hard work and thoughtfulness. You really did an excellent job for us! Thanks again."
"Noah, you have been such a great support. Thank you for your compassion, faith and beliefs. You made me feel at ease. I have been truly thankful and grateful for your friendship and service."
Hi Noah, Thanks again for everything you did. This has been a nightmare, and we don't know what we would have done without you. If we can ever do anything for you, let me know. Again, thank you so much.
Dear Noah & Nicole, Many thanks to you and your staff for your successful efforts on my behalf.
Thank you for all your efforts in this regard. I do not think anyone else would have been as persistent as you were in getting this matter resolved. Thank you again.
Noah & Nicole, You both deserved something more than an email to express a gratitude that I am certain has been expressed to you many times by grateful clients. When I first wrote to you Noah, the very day I received my assessment, you responded immediately - within the hour. As time went on, and I occasionally emailed for updates, someone from your office, or you, yourself, responded every time, clearly and respectfully. You and every member of your staff empowered us by your constancy and validated the worth of our individual cases. For this, I am so very grateful - because it allowed me to work and go one with my life, knowing that this situation was in honest and eminently capable hands. Ultimately, you and Nicole stayed the distance with me. Your office did not merely provide the bare minimum legal representation...but truly stood alongside of me in the best possible paradigm of legal representation. And so, I am offering you my profound gratitude. Thank you so very much for your integrity and humanity.
I'd like to thank you Noah. I want to thank you for your persistence in getting after my insurance company. You are a fine attorney and I would be pleased to recommend you if ever I have the opportunity.
Noah/Kelsey, Bravo! Well done! Thank you for the analysis. It was by far the biggest win so far, and more than paid for the cost of the service. The rest of the actions from here on out are certainly bonus opportunities. I look forward to working with you with my other legal matters in the future. Please let me know when you hear about the other actions. Thanks again!
Thanks for all your help with this. We will surely recommend your firm to others in a similar situation.
These guys are great! I need a consultation and got one for free. I talked with Attorney Noah Paul Fardo and he was very helpful. He walked me through the entire process. What I am most impressed with is that he did not try to sell his services. Instead he advised the most cost effective way to help me and actually told me I was better off not hiring a lawyer for now. I think it is very rare for a lawyer to tell a potential client not to hire a lawyer, when it would have been so easy for him to sell his services and charge me, of which I was ready to hire and pay them. Thanks guys, I appreciate it.
Attorney Noah Fardo has represented me, as well as friends and associates that I have referred to him over the years on a variety of matters. I have found him to be exceptionally bright, highly effective and consummately professional. More importantly, Noah is a good and decent person. He cares about people and always endeavors to do the right thing. This seems to give him a moral clarity in his work, on behalf of his clients, that propels him to win. I highly endorse and recommend Attorney Noah Fardo.
What a great job the entire staff did for me on my tax correction, especially Nicole & Noah. My thanks to all for a sterling effort.
Noah this is the best news that I've heard all year. I want to thank you again for a job well done, and to also let you know that I will use your services in the future for services that I may need. Happy New Year to you and your staff!
Thank you so very much. We appreciate all your time and effort to make this possible.
Nicole & Noah, Thanks a lot for this information. I really appreciate the insight you folks provided and the honest feedback. It is not easy to find such honesty, in today's world."
Noah, thanks to you and your entire office for assisting with our property appeal. We are very pleased with the settlement outcome. Your advice and guidance throughout this issue was outstanding. I will be happy to recommend your services to other who I know are struggling with the appeals process. Look forward to updates to your blog as well!
Noah and Nicole, Thank you for all your assistance in helping me reduce my assessed property value, and consequently my taxes, to what is a fair and reasonable amount. I am quite satisfied with the outcome. I will definitely keep your firm in mind should I need any future legal counsel.
Noah, I can never thank you enough for the time and effort you put into helping our family. Your dedication and work ethic to bring justice was evident every day I talked to you...you did everything a person could hope for when encountered with this situation. You're a great person, and a great friend too. Thank you so much, you will never be forgotten.
Mr. Fardo, thank you for sending me the final Order of Settlement with regards to our tax appeal. I greatly appreciate the help, assistance and guidance your law firm provided me during this time and especially the professionalism and dedication of Nicole Hauptman whose expertise and wisdom was instrumental in resolving this issue.
Thank you very much again for your excellent work which brought a huge benefit to us.
Thank you Nicole, you have answered all of my questions. You and Noah have been super. I could not be more pleased with this result.
We are thrilled with the outcome and very happy with the new assessment. It's a fair assessment and we see no need for an additional appeal. Thanks for all that you did to make this happen.
Nicole, many thanks to you and Noah for fighting the good fight for us. It has been a long year awaiting this outcome, and we are pleased with the results you have been able to attain for us. We (almost) look forward to getting our new tax bills.
Thank you Noah. It was a pleasure working with you and Nicole. I appreciate the communication you offered all through this process. Thank you for the detailed break up of the different pieces of the property tax and the new amounts. It will help compare the bills we will get. I will send you a check within the week. To the address mentioned in the invoice. Thank you again for getting us these savings in property tax, it was a pleasure working with you.
Thank you so much. We are very happy with the result. You did a great job. We will definitely recommend you to all our friends and family.
"After countless phone conversations with many law firms that said, no, I did not have a case based on our phone conversation, I finally was able to get at least a personal interview with the law firm Flaherty Fardo to determine if indeed I had a case. They were able to win my case and I was awarded a monetary value beyond my expectations. I highly recommend them if you want it done right. Flaherty Fardo were truly a godsend to me and my family."
Dear Noah & Nicole, I think you did a fantastic job representing me, and I am very pleased with the outcome. Thank you for all of your efforts on my behalf.
Just paid our reduced school and township taxes and received a rebate check from the County. A big Thank You to everyone involved in getting our reduced assessment.
Thank you Noah. That is great news, and thanks for your help. I couldn't have done it without you!
Nicole & Noah, we would like to thank you for all your help and time given to our case. We appreciate the good work you did.
Dear Mr. Fardo, I just received the notification from Allegheny County property assessment office about the reduction to $640,000.00. Thank you for your help and advice.
"Noah, Thank you for your time, energy and self. We couldn't have won without you."
Thank you very much. I'm very pleased with the result.
Great – thanks for the help. Could not be more pleased with the outcome.
Thank you very much with for your assistance with our property assessment process. Appreciate your work!
You kept your promise, You did not kneel. Your expertise, knowledge of the law, and presentation of the facts, including the key historical ones won this appeal for us. I have to also mention how grat you were — even when I was at my highest emotional pitch (!), you did not patronize me, you stayed our defense and became even more determined to stay on task. I so respect you for that. There will no doubt be another challenge for us as yet another county assessment takes place. And we want you and Flaherty Fardo by our side! Thanks again. You are wonderful.
Needless to say, the results you achieved far exceeded my best hopes for a fair assessment. I just want to thank the firm for a job well done.
Noah and staff, Thank you for the beautiful poinsettias. We are keeping it beautiful for M***** to see when he feels better. Thank you for everything your office has done for us.
Great job! I've got the assistance that I needed. Nicole Hauptman was very helpful. I'm greatly appreciative of Noah Paul Fardo and Mandy Schilling also.
Thank you for the excellent news - the results of your outstanding efforts. We are pleased with the decision and do not want to file an appeal. Regards and Happy New Year!
Thank you for the efficiency in dealing with my tax appeal!
Thank you Noah & Nicole for all of your efforts to resolve this in a very speedy manner. Thank you again for all of your efforts on our behalf.
"I have known and worked with Noah Fardo for years. He has always been extremely professional and goes the extra mile for everyone. His work ethic and passion are second to none. His firm has always kept me well informed every step of the way. I couldn't be happier with his work and I highly recommend Noah and his firm."
Nicole, thank you for your great help on this matter. If we have future legal matters I won't hesitate to contact you and your firm. I've been impressed with your professionalism and concern for your client. Thanks for helping us with this matter and best regards.
"When Allegheny county sent an official to visit my house to ask questions concerning my assessment, I was nervous and unsure of how to answer their harassment. I'm glad I immediately thought of you and called to see what my rights were. Thank you so much for taking the time to answer all of my questions and informing me of my legal rights to refuse them access to my house and land. Most importantly, thank you for the thousand of dollars you saved me each year on taxes!!!"
Noah Fardo is a 5-star lawyer. When Noah took my case, my experience in working with him exceeded far beyond my expectations. He kept in touch with me through every step of the process, alleviating much of the anxiety associated with a lawsuit. He responded to my ongoing questions, comments and concerns almost immediately. I felt like we were a team and when the case finally came to execution, he left no stone un-turned. Most importantly, he fought for me equipped with total knowledge, vigor and professionalism.
Hi Noah and Shawn, Thank you. I had no idea what to expect filing my first lawsuit. I really didn't even want to file it. You guys did a phenomenal job and me and my family can't thank you enough. I hope I never need you again, but if I, or anyone I know does, I absolutely will recommend you. Thanks again guys, we really appreciate it!
It was truly a pleasure working with your firm.
Thank you again for your representation and assistance on this matter.
We are very happy to have the reduction down to what we paid for the house and have no intention of appealing. Thanks again.
Attached is the decision that I received regarding the (2011) school district tax appeal for our property. As you can see, the assessed values did not change at all! My wife and I are so very pleased with this result, and we are very thankful to your firm for representing us. Again, thank you so much for your efforts that led to completely successful results.
Thanks Nicole. You all continue to amaze me with your quick response to a former client. Thanks again!
Hi Nicole, thank you for representing us. We are very happy with the result of this appeal and appreciate the work you and Noah did to make it happen.
"A Special note of Thanks. A Simple Act of Kindness has a beauty all its own."
I have used Attorney Fardo as an attorney for over 10 years for personal and professional matters. In my professional career I have had dealings with dozens of attorneys. I chose to use Noah Fardo because of his accessibility and common sense attitude. Noah advises me on many issues and is always willing to listen, understand and recommend a course of action. It's a comfort to know that I can pick up the phone and talk to Noah in person whenever the need arises unlike many law firms.
Thank you so much for all your efforts on my property appeal. Again, I am very pleased with the results! I will be mailing a check toy our office today. Please send my best to Noah. Again, many thanks!
Dear Nicole...My wife and I are quite pleased with the results you obtained in the appeal and thank you for your very effective representation or our interests in this matter.
"Nicole, I want to express my appreciations for your feedback and honesty. Many attorneys would have charged me for a consultation before providing any guidance on this matter. I have already filed an appeal for 2014 and will follow through on your advice. Thanks again."
"Hi Nicole, thank you so much for sending the final settlement and paperwork. I greatly appreciate all your efforts to successfully resolve my case. It is a great relief to know it is settled."
Dear Nicole, Yippee! Thank you, Nicole. You made this entire process very easy for Ron and me and we are thrilled with the results. We appreciate your professionalism and how you kept us informed every step of the way. We will continue to recommend you to family and friends. Take care.

I am playing ice and need a worrier with a flex of 85 or and under.. Dont know what i should get?
I am playing ice and need a worrier with a flex of 85 or and under.. Dont know what i should get?
you need a warrior? and if so, why do you need that brand?
Because he is a warrior and warrior's need warrior sticks!
I would read through a recent thread about stick preferences and etc...
i'm not hating on warrior or anything but i'm just curious because there are plenty of good sticks from other companies out there. i do own a few warrior sticks (been using innovative for a few years now) and love the way i shoot with it. but some people just don't like it. so i was just curious as to why. if it's cause you've tried it before and like the feeling, that is cool. you can buy them online if the local shops are out. but if it's cause that's what your favorite player is using, i would suggest seeing the others out there too before sticking to just one brand.
Johnny 5 says: NEED MORE INPUT!
Seriously though, why specifically Warrior? Why flex 85 or under? What's your playing style and position? It's too bland of a question to say I need a stick, what kind do I need? There's a lot of factors that go into it. Please elaborate.
I agree with those who have already commented. Your question is impossible to answer.
Anyway, don't get Warrior. I don't recommend it unless you're an uber sniper. Otherwise, don't "waste" your money because there are just way better sticks out there (IMO).
I cant play with Warrior sticks...I'd reccomend a Bauer Vapor or One90, or an Easton Synergy....but it's all personal preference.
This thread is humoring me today...We all have our preferences...Some may or may not like a certain brand. But saying stuff like that use this stink and don't use it that stick is not productive...If you are going to say a certain stick is not good.. Then post why you don't like it...Also post why you like certain sticks..
Example of good reason:
The warrior stick's kick point is to low for my liking. The nipple grip on the warrior is too grippy.
Example of bad reason:
I cant shoot well with the warrior...
How do we know, if you don't suck at shooting the puck period.
Come on guys lets be helpful and be a little more descriptive with why we like stuff and why we don't. It will help in the long run.
He said he needed a worrier stick, not a warrior. You people need to learn to read.
If you really want a stick you worry about, I'd suggest anything priced $300 or more. Plenty of worrying, guaranteed.

Trying to come up with a Hanukkah-worthy meal for eight nights isnt easy for busy people on the go. Thats where the Aroma Market & Catering comes in.
Even bubbehs were ordering potato latkes and brisket from the glatt kosher Cooper City venue, which offers dozens of prepared salads, vegan dishes, various meats, pastries and specialty items like gefilte fish and kasha varnishkas in its long display cases.
We were pleasantly surprised by the latkes, which tasted homemade when heated up at home. The brisket was flavorful and not too fatty, though we would have liked more gravy, especially since we used some of it for the kasha. They do a good job on their white fish salad, and sweet-and-sour meatballs filled in nicely as hors doeuvres.
You can also buy fresh produce, frozen foods, desserts like chocolate bapke and doughnuts right from the oven. And if youve been meaning to pick up a menorah, Aroma stocks that, too, along with candles, dreidels and candy for the kids. For anyone who keeps kosher, its a go-to place year-round.
Aroma Market & Catering, 8819 Stirling Rd., Cooper City; 954-252-2600; 8 a.m.-9 p.m. Monday-Wednesday, 8-9 p.m. Thursday, 7 a.m., to two hours before Shabbat Friday, closed Saturday, 8 a.m.-7 p.m. Sunday; soup $3.99-$6.99 per quart, fish, beef and chicken dishes $1.75-$24.99 per pound, salads $5.99-$10.99 per pound, vegan dishes $2.99-$9.99 per pound, sides $1-$10.99 per pound, dairy menu $15-$20 per tray, pastries and cakes $3.49-$27.99 (more for sheet cakes).

About Boston
Best identified with the iconic Boston Tea Party, Boston Marathon, Harvard, and the Red Sox, Boston,Massachusetts is one of America's most populous states. It is also site of the country's first subway system and home to an astounding number of Dunkin' Donuts. As you land at Logan International Airport, one look at Boston's skyline gets you excited to explore this 'City on a Hill.'
Boston Neighborhoods
Boston is made up of many neighborhoods - Tremont, Shawmut and Washington streets in the South End have a number of restaurants and retail stores scattered all over. South End is also home to the famous Boston Ballet and the Boston Center for the Arts (BCA).
Back Bay is dotted with charming Victorian houses. It also houses two of the tallest buildings— the Prudential Center and the John Hancock Tower. The Old Hancock Building is easily spotted for its aerial weather beacon illuminated with red and blue lights. The famous Boston Public Library is also part of this neighborhood.
Downtown Boston holds the Financial District and the Government Center. Emerald Necklace is a group of parks that were constructed to encircle Boston. The country's oldest national park - Boston Common – is also a part of this. Jamaica Pond and the Franklin Zoo are other attractions that contribute to this design. The Hatch Shell located along the banks of the Charles River is a popular venue for concerts and is adjacent to Esplanade Park.
Things to Do in Boston
The Freedom Trail is one of Boston's iconic activities – and you can do it the fun way – a costumed tour! Some key highlights of the Revolutionary War are the home of Paul Revere, Old North Church and the Old State House museum.
If you're in the mood for some theater, head to the Theater District to catch a show at the Citi Performing Arts Center or the Orpheum Theatre. If you're around at the right time, you can attend one of the city's many annual events - First Night on New Year's Eve, the Boston Arts Festival and the Harborfest activities of Fourth of July. The Charles River fireworks with the Boston Pops Orchestra are a great way to celebrate this holiday!
If you time it well, you may be able to catch a game with any of Boston's four major professional sports leagues – Red Sox, Celtics, Patriots and Bruins. Even if they're on the road, a trip to Fenway Park could still win you a beer at one of its famous bars.
Make a trip to the Boston Public Library to see its many murals or the Institute of Contemporary Art in South Boston for its remarkable architecture. Walk along the Esplanade to enjoy a view of sailboats on the river or take a trip to the New England Aquarium, and catch a glimpse of the penguins and hermit crabs that call it home. And once you're done, a great way to unwind is to get on top to the Prudential Building's Skywalk Observatory to get the ultimate 360-view of Boston.
Boston Accommodations
If you're on a budget Boston vacation, Boston apartment rentals in the Back Bay and Beacon Hill neighborhoods may prove more expensive. You could expand your search for Boston vacation rentals to include the greater Boston area to get more options – homes for rent are available in all parts of the city. If you do decide to look for an apartment for rent in Back Bay, try and get one with a view of the Charles River to get the true Boston experience.
Spring and Fall are the best time to be in Boston – especially if you're looking to avoid the cold Boston winters!

Frigidaire/Electrolux Doesn't Care About Their Customers
Posted by Silent reviewer on 06/29/2005
CALIFORNIA -- Our story goes: Started June 18, 2005 - when a repairman came to check why refrigerator isn't working. He told us that it was "sweating back to the compressor" and that it is a "sealed system problem". That someone from Frigidaire will call us to tell us what is going to happen next. We lost all our food for a Father's Day gathering and continue to lose money over this whole HORRIFIC incident.
June 20 (Monday) - No calls all day. We had to call Frigidaire and see what the situation is. No help whatsoever. We had to go to Kinkos to fax the repair order so that they have TWO copies (one from us, one from the repair company) to assure that the refrigerator is un-repairable and needs replacement. We wait...
June 21 (Tuesday) - Called Frigidaire. They said it was going to take 72 hours for a "review" to see if/when it will get replaced. AGAIN, WE ARE PATIENT...AND WAIT...72 HOURS.
June 24 (Friday) - So here we are, 72 hours later. Called Frigidaire, still no answer. They told us that it is STILL in the review process. What the heck were they doing the last 72 hours? Hmmm...makes you wonder...if they care, doesn't it? They said to call back by the end of the day for an answer. So that they can contact the place where we bought the fridge from for replacement. Called them before they closed...STILL NO ANSWER. And of course they don't work weekends...So still no fridge...continue to eat out everyday...we wait again for Monday.
June 27 (Monday) - Called Frigidaire...what a surprise...STILL NO ANSWER. This is 72 hours plus one day. Still no answer from the "Review Department"...which I'm trying to think is a department with a bunch of round filing cabinets. Their reasoning this time is that the department is very busy and shorthanded. I wonder why?...maybe because your appliances are unreliable and need to get replaced not even a year after it's purchase?!! Again...we wait.
June 28 (Tuesday) - Called Frigidaire...well, you might as well read what was on my story above, on June 27th. Cause that's pretty much the same story. Except, apparently a supervisor was going to "expedite" the process and give the file to the review department who is still reviewing the case. I think they have one person working there and only one person...who is in a 6x6 room with a stool and files and files of complaints and cases. They said they would call me back by the end of the day. Of course they did..NOT!
June 29 (Wednesday) - So here we are...144 hours (business hours that is) has past...not counting last weekend of course. Eating out, wasting money. But Frigidaire doesn't care...it's not them who has to eat out and it's not them who's money is wasted. Why should they care. Still no answer. Same story. Still no refrigerator. Talked to another supervisor...same story. I might as well call myself and tell myself the same story tomorrow. At least I'll be talking to someone who cares...ME. Will keep you all updated.
June 29 (quick update) - Still no answer. They apparently said that they have an approval and will send the "letter" this afternoon to the place where I bought my appliance. I called them...still not there. Will again call tomorrow.
June 30 (Thursday) - Persistence is the key. You HAVE TO be persistent and keep calling these people at Frigidaire. Even if you get the same answer...keep calling. Almost to the point of annoyance, feel me? Anyway. My dealer called (where I got the fridge). Told me that everything was good to to and to go over to their store and pick one out. I went, I did, and still had to have another bargaining conversation with them because apparently the side by side/stainless steel models wetn up in price. Is that my problem?? What the hell is that supposed to mean to me? Well, that means that I have to pay the difference. Oh, helllll no. :) There is NO WAY that I was paying anything. Long story short...they just gave me the same model as an even swap. Delivery for free (as you would expect). My representative at the Appliance Dealership was AWESOME! She did everything she could to get things DONE. Which is more than what I can say about FRIGIDAIRE OR ELECTROLUX! Let's hope this doesn't happen to anyone else. Especially...let's hope this new one last us more than 9 months!
If you need contact information on Frigidaire, good luck in trying to find a helpful person that will give you answers. But here's what we've found as far as regular mailing addresses and contact people:

I'm going through exactly the same situation right now, except that I bought a freezer and it lasted less than 2 weeks. I purchased my freezer on 22 July 2005 at a dealer in Laval Quebec.
I just received my credit card statement with the purchase of the freezer as one of the items. I'm disputing the charge until I get my situation resolved.
Whether this situation is resolved to my satisfaction or not, I will NEVER, NEVER, purchase a Frigidaire product again.

yeah, i got the 72 hour line three times until i figured out that this is the company code for "you're screwed"-good luck, i've been waiting 3 months now for the replacement dishwasher that never came. Personally, I think they are going under and we are on the wave.

I bought a Frigidaire stove. We were satisfied my husband did all the research and thought we were getting the best product for the money. Not too long after purchase, the glass in the oven door developed a iridescent color. We called to have it checked. A repairman came out, looked at the oven and told us this is normal. It had to do with the gases between the glass. Because he determined it not ba a problem, we had to pay for the visit. Around $92.00. My husband refused to pay. He threatened us with a collection agency. We had to pay. We will never will we buy Frigidaire and I guess now, Electrolux and we are actively looking for two appliances. :-(
Posted by Martina on 2013-09-15:
We have bought 4 Frigidaire appliances and 3 out of the 4 have been crap. We have had our dishwasher repaired twice and now again which will be the 3rd time. The fridge is also not working and we are waiting now for 2 weeks for the parts to arrive for the repairman to come back and fix our fridge. Our above the stove microwave also stopped working and we are waiting for our microwave as well now. I would suggest nobody buy these appliances if you wish for appliances to last longer than a year. Take my word, I have been on the phone a few times with Frigidaire and the repair company and they just send you back and forth playing games and wasting time. Terrible appliances!!!!

Icemaker Problems
Posted by MRFN on 11/23/2009
I purchased the higher-end Electrolux CD FD refrigerator (with WAVE TOUCH) in July and have had nothing but problems with it since day one. Ice Maker issues: wet cubes, slow production, leaky, inefficient, started making noises, stopped working, new motor installed, stopped working AGAIN!!, etc. It's a beautiful, sleek looking unit but it doesn't work properly (repair people have told me that they are not impressed with icemaker design).
Customer service reps seem very nice at Electrolux and the outside repair people are accommodating but Electrolux will not replace this LEMON and the repairmen can only do so much -- it keeps breaking and never worked properly in the first place (so I am out multiple days of work after almost six months and still do not have a WORKING icemaker). For the money I paid, I expected this unit to be attractive AND to WORK PERFECTLY! Don't buy this unit! If I had to do it over again, I would buy the Samsung (I was too impressed by all the Electrolux bells and whistles and now I am paying the price).
My advice is to look elsewhere until Electrolux does a much better job with design and service.

Electrolux is giving full refunds for this refrig. I have a similar ice maker problem and am recieving a full refund minus tax and installation.
Posted by DLV on 2012-04-30:
I would recommend a KitchenAid refrigerator.
I would role my 15 year old KitchenAAid from the garage back into the kitchen if it wasn't white and shove this piece of junk electrolux out to the garage.
Posted by Louanna on 2012-05-24:
I too have had nothing but problems with our Great New refrigerator-the ice maker works for 6 weeks and goes out again-I have had 6-8 repairs and nothing works. Would never buy products from Standard appl as there service contract sucks. Now they say it's not repairable-so You spend $2700.00 on a refrigerator that's not repairable 2 years later. Will never buy top of the line again.
Posted by Lori on 2012-08-23:
I too am having ice maker problems. 3 times now in 13 months it has stopped working. Electrolux refuses to acknowledge they have a bad product. One more time and it goes to the dump.
Posted by jc on 2012-09-22:
same story here --- bought an electrosux -- 2 years worth of problems -- paid $700 for a 3 yera extended warranty, after 6 months into the warranty time they had to replace the fridge, and then they said that because it was a new unit, I did not get to transfer the unused warranty portion to the new unit --- just delivered this unit (EI28BS65KS4) and now the ice maker on it is not working -- and the door never shuts right --this is so frustrating! DO NOT BUY ELECTROLUX!
Posted by SMHanson on 2013-10-21:
I agree, I will never buy another Electrolux, bought it for the looks, when you pay that much for a frig, you think it's going to be the best. Ice machine is terrible, over $500 in repairs and Electrolux will do nothing to replace this lemon. Repair crew just out again and will now call Electrolux every day until they get this thing repaired correctly

Unprofessional Customer Service/Non-placement

RE: Frigidaire Gallery Refrigerator, Serial # PLHS5267ZAB5, Model # LA23411589
Dear Vice President of Customer Service,
This letter is to explain the circumstances of why we will not buy another Electrolux product. In November of 2002 we purchased new appliances for our kitchen which included the above refrigerator. Approximately two weeks ago the entire cooling system quit working. I called customer service's automated number for a service repair number. There were only two offered. I never received a call back after several attempts to one and the second one did not have a refrigerator technician. They suggested I call customer service directly. In speaking with customer service I was informed that my warranty had expired and that I needed to contact a repair person on my own. I contacted a repair person who explained the board needed to be replaced. That was replaced and immediately blew. He said I needed to contact Frigidaire directly. I called customer service back and explained the situation at which time they said they would put in a request for repair and someone would call me back in 24 hours to let me know what had been scheduled. I call the next day after I did not receive a call. The woman I spoke to said she did not understand why I had not received a call, normally they are very good. She then asked me for all my information again and said she would put the request in again….. it would take 24 hours. I called again after I had not received a call. I explained again to your representative, who then said she doesn't't know why I would think it to be 24 hours. The policy is 48 to 72 hours and why was I calling them anyway since I was not under warranty. I explained about not being about to contact an authorized repair service and she said to use who ever I wanted because it did not matter. I then contacted another repair service who took one look at the old board and said I needed to have Frigidaire come out. It appeared to be the compressor. I AGAIN called customer service and was told it would be another 48 to 72 hours before I would get a call to let me know when someone would be out. Fortunately, after speaking to a supervisor, who placed me on hold while obtaining an appointment with A&E Service, I was able to have an authorized repair technician come to my home. The repair technician then informed me that my unit has a short in the wire that is incased in the unit and therefore not repairable. He asked how old the unit was and that this falls within the five year warranty that I needed to contact Frigidaire. I called on the next business day and was told the service company would be called and the case would be reviewed and we would be told if it would be replaced or not in 48 hours. I then received a call from Brittney would said that because we did not purchase an extended warranty nothing would be done. I called back later and talked with another customer service representative and after asking her to explain how it is that something's can be covered in a five year warranty how it is that something that CANNOT be repaired due to a manufacturing defect is not. She repeatedly said that if I had bought the extended warranty it would be covered. I then asked to speak with her supervisor. She asked me why several times, saying she has already addressed my question and that if I should provide proof of purchase I might be offered a small rebate. I had to ask several times to speak to a supervisor and was left on hold for 20 minutes before I was put through to Laurie. I then asked the same question and she said she is doesn't't write the warranty and what is it that I expected. I explained that we paid a lot for our refrigerator and for us it would be worth paying $1000 to have it repaired but after only four years of owing it we didn't even have that choice. It doesn't't make sense to offer a five year warranty of parts and repairs that can be made and not offer the same warranty of something that can not because of a defect of the manufacturing. She then said there are guidelines and that is what they go with. What did I expect? I should have bought the extended warranty. I asked to speak with her supervisor. She stated there wasn't anyone else for me to talk with. I asked if she has a supervisor and she said yes, but not in that office. I can go the website and make a complaint that way if I like but the answer will remain the same.
So, what is the point of the long letter? I have had to deal with many customer service providers from being in real estate and property development over the last 10 years. My husband currently owns more than 40 investment properties and is developing a handful of multiunit properties over the next five years. I currently own a property management company. This is the first time I have ever felt the need to write a letter about how unprofessional and disappointed I have felt at the end of a resolution to a problem. There never was an answer of let's see if we can help you or answer your question to some satisfaction or even giving me a name or transferring me to someone to answer the simple question of why I have some parts that are under a five year warranty (that I would gladly pay to have fixed) and that something that CANNOT be repaired does not fall in that same category? I understand that customer service doesn't't write the guidelines, but they do interpret the guidelines because that is what guidelines are for, to guide. Doesn't it seem reasonable that perhaps this short in an area that is not accessible falls outside of the 'guidelines'? I don't know, customer service wasn't willing to help find that answer. Given all the above boring details, I will not buy another Electrolux product to replace any existing appliance in any unit or in any new property. I will forward a copy of this letter to Consumer Reports and everyone I know along with what I have learned regarding other appliance companies. If your company cannot stand behind your products, then I cannot either.

If I were you, I would check out your remedies in small claims court. I have been without a fridge for almost two months and my fridge is less than a year old, six repairs, and still not working! I filed a claim (myself, no attorney involved)in small claims court which only cost me $90. If I win my claim, I will get my court costs back. I bet, given your circumstances, you would prevail in small claims court.

I have a frigidaire glass top stove. One burner hasn't worked since day one. We purchased our condo brand new in April with the appliances included. The stove only has a 1 year warranty through electrolux and its coming up on the end of the warranty and still nothing has been done! The repair shops they give me never answer the phone and they dont care to help any further. I agree a terrible terrible company, will never own frigidaire appliances again.

We just bought a Frigidaire double-oven. So far so good (knock on wood!)
Hope it lasts until we sell the house! (knock on wood again!)

Do Not Purchase a Electrolux Refrigerator and Do Not Do Business With Gerhardt's Appliances
Posted by Mm69111 on 06/13/2009
FRAZER, PA -- I purchased two high end appliances from this store; 1 - a Miele dishwasher and 2 - a Electrolux Refrigerator. After waiting for delivery like I was waiting for cable installation; between the hours of 12 - 5, I finally called at 5:30 to ask if the appliance was going to delivered this day. I was told that yes in fact it would be and that they were running late, of course it never occurred to them to call me to let me know they were running late. It finally arrived around 6:30, while my wife and 3 little kids tried to prepare for dinner, while emptying the old appliance as we could not empty it until the new refrig arrived. It was installed, but apparently never inspected! Here it is almost three weeks later and the ice maker doesn't work, the seals on the freezer do not seal, creating the appliance to leak and ice to build up in the freezer compartment. I have called 5 times, they have sent out a service person once who was not able to fix the ice maker, a pleasant person I would add. FedEx rang the bell the other day with a delivery that appears to be ice maker replacement parts, although no one mentioned to us that they would be shipping to our house! I called the store to ask what was going on and when I could expect the ice maker to be fixed...the store instructed me to call back in three days!
After fuming over this for three days I call and they tell me that someone, once again like the cable companies, "will be out there next week, on Monday sometime between the hours of 1 - 5, so we schedule it. I find the appliance leaking again due to the seals and finally had enough, I called and asked them to take the "lemon" back and provide me a new one that works! "Sorry, we can't do that as it is not our policy." I have had it, I am canceling payment with AMEX until I get what I paid for: a new, in good working order, $3k refrigerator! I would not recommend:
1 - Do not do business with Gerhard's Appliances
2 - Do not purchase an Electrolux Refrigerator

Frigidaire Horrible Products, Company
Posted by DJ Moto on 10/26/2007
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH -- A Frigidaire refrigerator was purchased in Sept 2006. We were building a new home and did not begin using the fridge until April 2007. We plugged in the water for ice maker in June 2007 it was not plumbed correctly and it flooded the fridge. Repair tech repaired it. In August fridge stopped cooling. We called again. Tech came out and replaced damper control. We had to throw away hundreds of dollars in food. In early Sept 2007 stopped cooling again. Tech came out and replaced temperature control unit. Again wasted a lot of food. At that time I began telling Electrolux that I needed a new fridge. They were not helpful at all and would not let me submit the service claims to the replacement area. I finally got a supervisor to send my data to the replacement department. Replacement dept denied my claim saying I was outside the warranty of 12 months.
I have sat here for a full week without a fridge that works for the third time in two months. The problems started well within the 12 month warranty period but they will not honor their commitment. They just keep saying sorry there is nothing we can do to help you.

This one year warranty is a load (IMO).Maytag had a two year part,and one year labor warranty,some models had a full two year.Five years on the compressor(parts,and labor),Five years on control boards.Now anything sold after 2006 only comes with the one year.
Compressor replacements out of warranty are expensive($600.00-1000.00's)
I know it is hard,and stressful,trying to deal with someone that is wired to say NO.I deal with factories daily,and they can be useless to say the least.
On your next purchase,I advise checking out a local appliance shop,that services what they sell.Look into extended service plans,but read the fine print!As most extended warranties are useless as well.
Good Luck.
Email if any questions

Frigidaire Appliance Consumer Ripoff
Posted by Fedupliz on 02/15/2008
Purchased Frigidaire stainless steel refrigerator, range and microwave 4/4/07. Microwave door not aligned, range handles so rough they would cut your hands, refrigerator stayed on for hours and the noise would wake the dead. Called Frigidaire and they sent service who said the fan motor was not working. Took three weeks to replace the motor. Noise still waking me at 3:00AM three rooms away. Sounds like it is coming apart when it clicks on which is just opening the door. Service has been here five times, last one 2/11/08. He said Frigidaire knows about the problem and he twisted the cooling pipe which did nothing. Noise still there and now it stays on forever.
My electric bill is higher than it has ever been and waking up at pre-dawn time is making me tired and pissed. Cannot get anywhere with Frigidaire they do not give a damn. How do we get the FTC involved and file a class action. Paid all I want is what I paid for. They are screwing the consumer is anyone listening.

I am curious whether or not you resolved your complaint. I just bought a side by side stainless steel Frigidare refrigerator, range & dishwasher. The refrigerator is noisy/clunky when it turns on or off, which is frequently, and loud when it runs. I have to keep the temperature dial on colder than the factory setting just to keep the milk cold. The repairman told me to "get used to it" and yet I can hear it in my bedroom down the hall. It is disconcerting to buy a new appliance and have it be so noisy. I'm hoping that there is some recourse.
Thank you.
Posted by fedupliz on 2010-04-23:
Contact Chris Polk at Frigidaire's custonmer service. Believe it or not he was intstrumental in getting my refrigerator replaced. Still have some problems with the microwave sometime it works and sometimes it does'nt.
I think we are just helpless consumers because they all have problems

Wave Touch refrigerator Ice Maker problems!!
Posted by Pjb800 on 02/08/2010
In July of 2009 I thought I was making a great purchase of a Electrolux appliances for my home. July 18th my appliances were installed and the ice maker on my wave touch refridgerator worked fine for 2 weeks. After that I noticed it would leak, partial ice cubes, and finally a week later wouldn't product ice unless I would manually pull the stop bar. I have about 4 service techs try to repair and circuit boards replaced etc.. Long story short nothing fixed it and hours upon hours wasted waiting and trying to get it fixed. After the 4th service call Electrolux replaced the entire fridge. The ice maker now works but I still have very slow dispense of ice and the auger or something just doesn't seem to work right. For $3,500 one would think that something as simple as a ice market would work perfectly. If you are considering this refrigerator please move on!! I know there appliance looks great hence why I purchased but I am really kicking myself now and really wish I did more research prior.

What can a refrigerator possibly have to offer that's worth $3,500? I hope it at least came with a nice, long warranty. Maybe I'm just cheap, but I would never spend that much money on an appliance. And ice makers seem to be the first thing to break. I agree, for $3,500 the ice maker should not only work perfectly but should also dispense gold nuggets!

Terrible Product
Posted by Lexus93 on 06/12/2008
BLYTHEWOOD, SOUTH CAROLINA -- My wife and I have had 4 refrigerators in our 41 years of married life. Our latest one, an Electrolux /Frigidaire by side refrigerator was purchased four years ago. Fortunately we purchased a five year service program. Within the first 30 days the ice maker was replaced - the service man said this was not unusual. Then the compressor failed and had to be replaced. It took two tries and 11 days to successfully replace it. Another ice maker failed. Then the water supply valve failed. And most recently the ice maker was replaced. I do not know what will happen next. This is no doubt one of the worst home appliances I have ever owned.
I did contact Electorlux and they have never replied. One thing for sure I will never, never purchase another Electrolux product.

The reply from Fridigaire must have been bogus, becasue the email are beign stopped
Posted by lexus93 on 2009-02-17:
I did receive an offer from Frigidaire. They are willing to give me a 50% discount on a new unit. Sounds great until you do the math. Considering sales tax, delivery costs, disposal, another extended warenty, etc my out of pocket expenses for the replacement unit is $668.00. Also why a 50% discount on a unit that is (1) pure JUNK and (2) only 4 years old. If I take Frigidaire's offer my total out of pocket costs would be over $1900.00. (old unit + new unit + tax etc) I have declined the offer and requested either receiving an equal replacement unit (at no cost to me), or a 5 year extension to my present maintenance agreement.
Posted by lexus93 on 2009-02-19:
Here is Frigidaire's reply:
Thank you for contacting Electrolux Major Appliances. We sincerely regret that you have experienced difficulties with your product. Electrolux provides very comprehensive warranties with each product to guard against parts that may be defective at the time of manufacture. However, we are sure you can appreciate that a point is eventually reached when the manufacture's responsibility for any assistance we offer outside your warranty.
After a reasonable period of time, many factors beyond the control of the manufacture may affect any product.
We offer Extended Service Contracts to all our customers who register their appliances with us, to guard against unusual problems that may occur outside of warranty beyond normal wear and tear. Unfortunately, it would not be fair for customers who pay for this added insurance for us to cover the same replacement for customers who did not elect to insure their purchases outside of warranty. We apologize for not being able to assist with a higher offer.
Here is my reply:
I am one of your customers who PURCHASED an extended warranty - thank goodness.
I totally disagree with your assessment. Frigidaire manufactured and sold a piece of junk!!!!! A true Lemon!!!
My unit was having problems within the first three months. Yes the worst failure occurred in the second year. By that time the standard warranty would have expired and I would have been stuck for the whole cost if I HAD NOT purchased the EXTENDED warranty.
I must say Frigidaire has reached a new low in consumer appliances. As I said before, my prior units, Sears and GE, lasted over 12 years EACH without repair - for anything - that's right for ANYTHING. And you believe that the consumer should pay out over $2000 for a unit that even in your opinion will fail within 8 years!!!
Well my offer stands. If your position remains as stated in your recent letter, I will:
- of course never buy a Frigidaire product again
- spread the word via the any means I can, including the Internet, on this sorry product
Bottom line I hope anyone who reads this will learn from my sad experience and boycott Frigidaire - Please pass the word!!

our electronic oven in a gallery range (GLES3809EQD quit almost 5 years to the day--the range cost 1,000 and electrolux says they can do nothing except suggest i get it fixed ($578) and buy an extended warranty. . what i can do is inform others that electrolux does not make quality stoves and does not stand behind their products and is a totally unresponsive, uncaring company.

Worst Refrigerator Ever Made!
Posted by Kittyvol on 11/21/2010
We bought our fridge in April 2010. In July, the ice-maker stopped working. I called Electrolux and a repairman came twice to "fix" that problem. Then the water through the door wouldn't work. I called again and a repairman came out for that. Now the water isn't working again and the ice-maker is on again/off again. We're waiting on a repairman for that (and here we are at Thanksgiving week!).
Yesterday we went to the store where we purchased the refrigerator and asked what our options are. They called Electrolux and said they would make a decision within the next 24-48 hours as to whether they will allow the store to accept the fridge as a return. SERIOUSLY?? I think Electrolux should be PAYING ME for all the time missed from work waiting on the repairman! I think we need to have a class-action lawsuit against this company. Who's with me? It may be the only retribution that we have at this point.

Too bad you didn't research this refrigerator before purchasing one. There are a lot of complaints about the ice makers. You would have known to steer clear of Electrolux. I hope you have better luck on your next purchase.
Posted by JCraigM on 2010-12-11:
Problems with Electrolux are increasing. I'm now waiting for my 5th ice maker replacement and 3rd door gasket in 15 months. The parts are back ordered until late February! Does that tell you there's a much larger problem with Electrolux that the company wants to admit?
I've seen class action over cell phone batteries and ink cartridges that cost far less than a hundred dollars. This is a $4,000. refrigerator. Sadly, class action takes years and by then I'll have a KA refrigerator that works!
Hmmm, just a thought, wonder if Kelly Rippa has had any problems with her Electrolux products!!!
Posted by Venice09 on 2010-12-11:
JCraigM, I think that same thing every time I see her commercials. I'll bet she is regretting ever getting involved with Electrolux. Her image is worth more than what they're paying her.
Posted by JCraigM on 2010-12-13:
If Kelly were that concerned about her credibility as opposed to financial gains, she would publicly opt out of the Electrolux financial incentives. My appliance store repair tech says he heard that she has a Subzero refrigerator and probably has never done laundry or cooked a complete meal in her very high end kitchen.
Posted by JCraigM on 2011-01-13:
Kitty, I found a firm that is exploring what you suggested against Electrolux and spoke with their representative at length. Sadly, by the time it is ever resolved, the defective refrigerators will be recycled and our consolation reward will be a coupon for a bag of ice.
Posted by herrell on 2013-09-17:
Same problem.........water and ice! Don't buy any Electrolux appliance until they stand behind their products. Perhaps they could start by making them in the USA.

Electrolux Is Not A Good Product And Company
Posted by Marcus570 on 05/11/2009
MONTREAL -- We purchased a 2008 SIDE BY SIDE IN COUNTER DEPTH. Refrigerator w/icemaker for over $3000.00!!! Guess what the ice making system has failed on many occasions since then, the appliances were bought at SEARS and they have come to repair it almost 6 times so far... The new appliances are electronic and managed by computer chips, so no mechanical failures here... service people DO NOT KNOW what to do with them, since software problems are ERRATIC and momentary at times... they have trouble pinpointing the problems.
Electrolux HAS NOT answered ANY REQUEST, they obviously DO NOT CARE about customer complaints and SEARS just keeps on coming to fix the darn thing OVER AND OVER and waisting money and time.
I cannot believe the issues with a BRAND NEW high end fridge and the issues with service.
I have been told by different technicians that ALL products are prone to failing, including stoves, m dishwashers and so forth, anything with electronic components commanded by computer chips will eventually fail. How costly is it, just for the refridgerator main board, we are talking over $550.00 !!! and that does not include labor costs... so imagine that!
I would THINK TWICE about getting these and WE WILL NEVER BUY ELECTROLUX PRODUCTS AGAIN!

Question by Lady_Arwen 7682 · Dec 10 '11 at 04:13 AM · microwave use cooking reheating frequency
I'm trying to get a sense of how people use the microwave.
I personally reheat food about 2-3 times a day in it but rarely cook food with it. I usually cook using the stovetop, oven, pressure cooker, toaster oven (not for toast anymore LOL), and rice cooker.
Just curious. I eat clean Primal/PHD at home, which is about 90% of the time, so wondering if cooking potatoes, broccoli, sweet potatoes, and the like would be all that bad in it.
I know I prefer the taste of cooked food that is NOT microwaved but honestly when reheating it I don't notice a difference between microwave and stovetop except for certain textures like chicken.

Several times a day. I do the bulk cook-and-freeze-then-reheat method. Microwaving food has both positives and negatives, just like conventional cooking vs. eating things raw. I haven't found any convincing evidence that microwaving is better or worse overall compared to other forms of heating and cooking.
Wikipedia lists some good studies that show both positive and negative effects of microwaving. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_oven#Effects_on_food_and_nutrients
Answer by Dorado Galore 8408 · Dec 10 '11 at 05:24 AM
Never microwave anything in plastic. Including wrappers. In fact, if your food comes in "wrappers," stop that. (I'm referring to seriously "packaged" food, not literally everything wrapped.)
"Re-heat" is an odd term. In general you don't want to be cooking and re-cooking your food. Cook once, consume. If you're large quantities and reheating portions sequentially, I'll just say that's not my approach.
Oh, and for what it's worth. I don't recommend standing next to an active microwave. Something like common sense, it would seem.
Answer by Aili 758 · Dec 10 '11 at 05:07 AM
never, ever use it. We had one years ago, got rid of it and have not missed it at all.
Answer by Josh M 11085 · Dec 10 '11 at 07:30 AM
Never and never - microwaved food just does not taste right to me.
Answer by Grottenolm 1556 · Dec 10 '11 at 08:33 AM
Don't use a microwave at all, don't miss it in the kitchen. Our kitchen is too small for one anyway. Most meals are cooked fresh and leftovers are reheated on the stovetop or baked in the oven.

Answer by peter 5 6406 · Dec 10 '11 at 04:57 AM
I never cook food in a microwave. I do use it for reheating meals 2-3 nights a week. And I always use glass containers.
Answer by syrahna 2477 · Dec 10 '11 at 06:19 AM
I probably use my microwave three times a week - twice to reheat food (usually not for me) and once to thaw some meat for the dog or I in a hurry.
I keep thinking I'll get rid of it, but I have such a crummy stove/oven - it's horribly inefficient to reheat food that way. One of these days I'll get a countertop convection oven...
Answer by blur 1723 · Dec 10 '11 at 01:13 PM
I make big batches of meals and reheat them in the microwave; I'm in college so that works best with my schedule. Usually I use it 1-2 times a day. I also cook sweet potatoes in the microwave and steam broccoli in a glass container. I never microwave in plastic containers, only glass and ceramic.

President Barack Obama's plan calls for $1.6 trillion in higher taxes over the next decade. Boehner, R-Ohio, says he's willing to rethink tax deductions for the wealthiest Americans, but declined to provide further specifics.

How Effective is Cancer Feline Radiation Therapy
There are always some cancer cells in the body which the body can effectively kill on its own if the immune system is strong. Despite this fact, pets still develop cancers that need treatment. Cancer in cats and dogs may not be a very common condition, but it can be as problematic and fatal as in humans. Pets cannot speak about the discomfort that they are facing and therefore, it is upon the pet owners and veterinarians to use their observation and knowledge to establish prevalence of symptoms of cancer in cats and dogs among other health conditions.
Feline cancer can occur in any part of the body. If cancer has been diagnosed in certain specific areas, radiation therapy is one of the treatment options that should be considered.
Radiation therapy involves the same X-rays that are used for a normal X-ray for clinical investigation. The difference is that the levels of the X-rays that are used for the therapy are thousands of times more powerful.
Radiation is a localized therapy and used in cases where chemotherapy and surgery are not possible. It is also used where there is a need to reduce the size of the tumor before surgery or chemotherapy. Sometimes there may be some amount of residual malignancy in the body even after surgery. These cases occur when the growth of the cancer is so widespread that excision involves vital organs and therefore the entire tumor cannot be removed.
Radiation therapy can be extremely instrumental in managing a tumor and in certain cases can even be used as a permanent solution. The therapy is given with the aid of a machine that is similar to an X-ray machine. The size and location of the tumor determines the level of voltage that is used.
Like any other conventional cancer treatment, there are various side effects that come along with radiation therapy. There is every possibility of healthy cells being killed along with those causing the cancer. Moreover, there is a need for your cat to remain extremely still during the process and therefore anesthesia becomes necessary. However limited it may be, even general anesthesia exposes the cat to some amount of risk. Nevertheless, it is felt that in many cases the benefits outweigh the side effects.
At most, the specialist can take precautions to protect your cat from risks that accompany radiation therapy to some extent. For this purpose, he needs to target the rays to the exact spot of the tumor. Another mode employed for protection is to extend the sessions over several weeks. The target area is marked with ink so that the same area can be targeted in each session. Regular monitoring by a veterinarian is required to ensure that the cancerous cells are eliminated completely.
Despite the fatal consequences of cancer, medical science has still not been able to understand the causes behind it.

Keetyn hugh Williams was born on september 19 2012, We was taking by shock when he was born with a cleft lip. If you or you know of someone whos had a server case please reasure me that im not in this alone.
I'm so glad that you posted about your experience and that you have offered to share with others so that they are not alone if the have a baby with a cleft lip. As a nurse i have taken care of a lot of babies and child with cleft lips. Most are surgically fixed and these babies have totally normal looking lips after surgery. Prior to the surgery and durring the healing process we used special bottles to help them get the nutrition that they needed.
How is your baby doing now? I would love to know more if you feel comfortable sharing.
Keetyn looks like such a sweetheart. As a nurse who has taken care of a lot of babies with cleft lips, you are definitely not alone. I have worked with so many mothers who were shocked and surprised by their child's cleft. It can be such an emotional time as you deal with a situation you never expected. How are you doing with feeding? Hopefully he is doing okay with his bottles. Are you getting the support you need from your doctors? Keetyn will still be a bright and beautiful boy and once his lip is repaired, it'll be hard to tell he had a cleft in the first place. Hang in there.
I had a cousin who had a cleft lip but after the surgery he looks very handsome and not knowing that he had undergo operations. GaKb, don't worry everything will goes normal after the surgery. Keetyn is very cute.
