jtsuei says "Functional and quiet - note no freezer section" about Galaxy 1.7 cu. ft. Compact Refrigerator

The Galaxy 1.7 cu compact refrigerator works quite well for me and my officemate. It fits nicely under my credenza/desk, and is not noisy at all. I was wary because other reviews had stated that it doesn't keep things cold enough, but I've never had issues with that in the last couple of months (purchased in early Feb. 09).

Primary downside: it doesn't have a freezer section (I know other minifridges of this size sometimes do)... so no Lean Cuisines at work for me.
Secondary downside: it's white, which is not the prettiest appliance color. But, how fashionable can an office cubicle be, anyway?

Overall, as a person who likes to "live" at the office (i.e. I have breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks all available in my cubicle), I am quite happy with this minifridge.

Disclaimer - I am an employee of Sears Holdings, and I did get the associate discount on the item plus splitting it with another person. But I do find it quite useful....

jtsuei says "Affordable Mr. Coffee coffeemaker - works just fine!" about Mr. Coffee TF4 4-Cup Coffee Maker

This Mr. Coffee 4-cup coffee maker makes my daily cup of coffee and keeps me happy. It's the most basic model I could find. I suppose it would be improved if it were black, not white, as coffee grounds tend to accumulate and make it look dirty. Also, the lid is slightly warped from the steam. However, it still makes my coffee just fine. I only plan to upgrade when I need to start making coffee for more than one person (I want that whole 4-cup serving to myself!)...

jtsuei says "Slim phone with a QWERTY keyboard - I'll never go back." about Samsung - SCH-u740 Cell Phone

I got this phone for free in Nov. 07 when I renewed my two-yr contract with Verizon. That was the first good part - not paying for it. And, it's an incredibly useful phone that still looks pretty good. All I do is make phone calls and text message - but now that I have this QWERTY keyboard, text messaging is so much easier.

Call quality has always been good, the phone is easy to slip into a purse or back pocket, and it still works despite all my clumsiness (dropping the phone frequently, etc.)

As such, I am very satisfied! Next step would be upgrading to a Blackberry, but this will suffice for now....
