I feel like Goodman's are a good value. It really is all about the installer.

People are proud of their Trane or Carrier or whatever. Until they experience the same issues as other brands. Circuit boards going out on their super "efficient " unit, or coils start leaking just like the cheaper units.

I have received full credit before with the Chase card, but as others have said- you need to follow their rules to the T and be persistent.

I doubt they will reimburse a discount amount in your case, but if cancellation fits their criteria, they should reimburse. Be prepared to provide solid written documentation which you may have to get from the cruise line and doctors, etc.

It seems like every one is focused on food quality. I think it’s average for ff.

Where it stands out is, like chic fil a, the service and experience is so much better than the rest of the pack.

IOW, the employees act like people.

re: Brand new fridge not cold enough

Posted by colorMeShocked on 5/11/25 at 5:58 pm to indytiger

Should be in the 34-38 deg range.

Put a few jugs/bottles of water/drinks in and give it 4 hours or so.

Is the freezer temp around 0?

How is that relevant in my case? I’ve also had windshields replaced by other companies. This particular instance was a disappointment.

re: Refrigerator/appliance brands to avoid

Posted by colorMeShocked on 12/7/21 at 7:34 am to Shamoan

No brands are built like the old days where you could get 20 yrs or more out of a fridge. If you do then consider yourself lucky.

As others have said, it's hit or miss. However, Samsung and LG standout as the brands to avoid.
They look great in stores, but fail at higher rates. I couldn't even get a repairman to look at my LG fridge. They didn't even ask the model number. When I mentioned the brand, they did not want to touch it. Warranty work was futile. And it's not just icemaker issues. Compressor failures are common and that's kind of important.
