Our microwave just went out and I and trying to find some recommendations for a new one. Does anyone know of a site or anything where I can get good, accurate reviews? Is Consumer Reports any good? Also, doper opinions are welcome, too. So if you have/know of a particular model that is really reliable or has great features let me know! Thanks.
epinions.com has a lot of models listed, but only a handful of them have enough reviews to base a purchasing decision on. All reviews on that site are submitted by the consumers (more accurately, epinions members), not necessarily professional reviewers. So you’ll generally find the reviews to be more casual and open than reviews found in Consumer Reports.
By the way, there’s a frequent poster on these boards called Chronos. Are you his girlfriend, or am I reading too much into your username?
Thanks for the link, I will check it out.
And you are reading too much into it, I’m afraid. Back when I started using this name, ohhh… about '94 or '95, I kept having a problem with the name (Chronos) being taken when signing up for things. This was especially problematic when changing ISPs and selecting an email address. So after a while, in order to distinguish myself, I appended the tag of the Quake clan I was in at the time (clan Goodfellas) onto the end of my name. And since then I guess it has stuck. I still use it at times when signing up for something online, but perhaps I will consider changing it as this isn’t the first time the GF has been equated with “girlfriend”. :o
