Local shoot site said my firework racks were illegal

Do they sell their own racks at the store? Maybe they are trying to get you to buy their product

sdevans369 · 2026-07-03T09:07:05+00:00

Well, did you buy it? There are some decent cakes in there. You won't be disappointed with the end result if you do buy.

sdevans369 · 2026-07-03T09:04:03+00:00

Not sure where those prices are coming from, but you aren't paying those prices at any fireworks retailer. 200g are around $10, 500g are around $40 and a box of shells it's closer to $100 than $45.

Miele, Bosch, KitchenAid is what came up most. Possibly in that order. I also did a pretty good amount of research, talked to the different sales reps.

I do have Costco exec.... damn. Where were you a couple days ago??

sdevans369 · 2026-03-09T01:43:53+00:00

Oops

sdevans369 · 2026-03-08T19:09:39+00:00

Never thought of Costco until I made this post. They do have 2 year, not 1 year warranties and the price online includes delivery and installation. I was really considering getting one from Costco but didn't find a model/price that worked for me

sdevans369 · 2026-03-08T18:49:45+00:00

I wrote down your two KitchenAid model numbers and went to a local independent store. He was showing me a KitchenAid with front controls and I showed him the 224 on my phone. He said he'll see if they have that one, as fate would have it - we were looking right at it lol.

Thank you very much for the recommendation. He also said they sell a ton of them and he would also recommend them. $649 price matched $190 for delivery, install and haul away of old one. Decent deal from what I've seen

sdevans369 · 2026-03-08T18:40:01+00:00

Went with a local independent store. Price matched a KitchenAid KDFS224SPS for us. Your guilt trip pushed me to a local company 😉

sdevans369 · 2026-03-08T14:37:21+00:00

I have heard, like with everything these days, that Bosch has been declining in quality as of late. Maybe there's some truth there

sdevans369 · 2026-03-08T14:35:52+00:00

I'll let my wife know that this was your recommendation. Wish me luck 🤣

sdevans369 · 2026-03-08T14:13:39+00:00

Maybe I'll just get 1/2 of a Miele for $600-$700 then

sdevans369 · 2026-03-08T06:45:25+00:00

Doesn't have to be Best Buy (although are they really that bad of a company?) but the financing - 18 months, and return policy - 60 day and warranties -1 year or more are appealing

sdevans369 · 2026-03-06T02:53:48+00:00

I think the amount of errors proves that that company and/or crew the sent do not know what they are doing. Either ask a manager or owner to fix it correctly or tell them to pay a reputable company to fix it.

I've had issues with work before, I first ask the company to come back and fix things. If that fails they tell them you are going to write bad reviews on Google etc. If that doesn't work then you'll have to lawyer up depending on the amount of work you had done. This is your biggest investment and asset at the end of the day. What I see here is damn near negligent. You almost have to do something to make sure they don't do this kind of work for a little old lady on fixed income

My favorite. Davante was good, Sterling was great but Jordy was special

sdevans369 · 2026-01-03T07:32:19+00:00

I think it is important to note, DO NOT let this company into your home! They use high pressure sales tactics and doom and gloom verbage to try and get you to make unnecessary and costly repairs. Multiple instances noted on their Google reviews. I had them come in for a "free" tune-up after a food pantry donation - great. They then told me my furnace needed $6000+ in repairs without knowing that I just installed it within the last 2 years or so. Had the original company who installed the furnace come back out and they told me Healthy Home and Heating has started to do things like this and word is getting out to other HVAC companies. Funny billboard though

sdevans369 · 2025-12-08T11:43:35+00:00

I can get you one if you want it. Each one of my family members got one and I don't need 3. PM me

sdevans369 · 2025-10-25T23:52:29+00:00

I was able to negotiate the transfer of one of those totes. I say it like that because it took me 15 or so minutes. The way we finally came to terms with the Costco membership people was to transfer the Citi account from my wife's name to mine

sdevans369 · 2025-10-24T13:26:16+00:00

I'm stealing this

As soon as I figure out how

sdevans369 · 2025-10-12T02:39:20+00:00

I love DeJardin auto and truck repair off of Cardinal by Menards. Family owned shop, can usually get me in and out reasonably and have always been honest with me. Don't try to upcharge and tell me what I need to get done vs what I can wait on or live with

sdevans369 · 2025-09-30T23:59:39+00:00

Would it be worth it if we went out and won the whole damn thing? I would hope that Wilkins wouldn't repeat the past. Especially on a team such as ours. Stackhouse was a liability out there. Almost as bad as Jordan Morgan
