Home, Home on the Range
The last of the sweet suite of Frigidaire appliances I received distinguishes itself with its intuitive features. Actually, this is two appliances: the Range and the mounted Microwave. Like the rest of the Gallery appliances, the range and microwave look sharp. Even more importantly, they have a large number of time-saving and convenient options.

Airing My Dirty Laundry
Affinity Washer and Dryer “appliances”. It is like some advanced alien civilization visited my laundry room and left behind their space-age technology.

It’s a Craft! It’s a Toy! It’s a Party Favor

SIGG’s BPA Announcement – Too Little, Too Late?
With his usual thoughtful and even-handed reporting, Jeremiah at Zrecs has all of the information about how SIGG muddied the waters to benefit from concerns about BPA. While it does seem to be the case that no BPA leaches from the old SIGG linings, they do, in fact, contain BPA…
Frigidaire Refrigerator Keeps Me Organized
Earlier, I announced I was part of the Frigidaire Mom Test Drive Team and promised to share my experience testing out Frigidaire’s More Me Time Guarantee.
The appliances (courtesy of Frigidaire) have started to arrive so let’s check them out! Is the new Frigidaire refrigerator super cool, or just lukewarm?
