Scott's Turf builder Miracle Grow Company
July 9, 2008
Just used Scotts Turfbuilder with *** control last week on our lawn - which at the time was already pretty nice and green. We followed the instructions on the bag EXACTLY. Our lawn is now completely brown and burnt!! Really really mad. Wish we'd known about/read all the negative comments about this product on Scott's website before I had bought and tried it. Don't know if, or how I can fix my lawn now it is completely burnt :( Terrible product. Buyers beware and read all the negative reviews on their website and the internet before trying it - better yet just don't risk it! read full review »

The installer made a sharp turn as he backed out of the driveway and collided with my parked BMW 650 Ci that was on the street in front of my home at least 5 feet away from the driveway. I was out of town on the day this occured. Their office called me to collect the installation balance due via credit card without mentioning the accident. When I returned into town 4 days later, I saw their card admitting to the accident. Over a week has passed without them compensating me for the damage.

Frigidaire 4000
July 8, 2008
Okay, where to begin? I've read so many complaints about Frigidaire appliances that I'm shocked! Right now, I'm preparing some paper work to sue Frigidaire in small-claims court over the vents on my 4000 Series AquaSurge Dishwasher. The dishwasher is designed to vent out of the sides which in turn has caused my cabinet sides to warp, and my white cabinet doors and drawers (which are all new by the way) to crack and peel, AND my counter top to warp. Has anyone else had this problem? read full review »

Custom Home Improvements
July 7, 2008
Brian was contracted to strip and stain our outdoor deck. He told us it would take a week to complete. He also asked for half of the money up front for expenses, which $500 was given to him by check. Brian was contacted numerous times, and worked a total of 10 hours in 3 weeks. He then never returned any of our phone calls, or ever showed up to work again after that. We were lied to and felt cheated. Brian has left us with a half-finished mess and the summer is half over. We don't want anyone else to encounter the same situation by ever using Brian for home improvement work. read full review »

I paid $20.00 for two sets of smart lids but the shipping and handling was $47.70 and because I didn't notify them that I was returning them they said that they could only give me a $20 credit, which they did. My point was that they probably didn't weight over 5 or 6 oz - they were plastic rings with a stretching plastic over them. If they would have been reasonable about the s & h charges I could have handled this, but I find this ridiculous. There is probably nothing you can do, but I have never disputed a charge in my life, but I don't like this one. Thanks, Christine Heldreth. read full review »

Other Internet sites [http://www.compacttractorreview.com/review/Cub-Cadet/LT1045.aspx] have records of identical complaints from many consumers and MTD [Cub Cadet] has neither issued a recall on this tractor or issued a retrofit repair kit/procedure to resolve this major design flaw. The main drive pulley on the engine has no belt retainer/keeper brackets and the steep angle of the drive pulley in relation to the deck pulleys (in the mow position) appears to be a contributing factor in this issue. read full review »
