However, Lexar respected that it was to be MY house, so therefore everything should meet with my approval, all while actually dealing with my mother here at home. They were very good about keeping both of us up-to-date on progress, and letting both of us know of issues or problems, and decisions that needed to be made. My beautiful house was completed on-schedule (if not early), and lived up to all of my expectations. Even more than one year after moving in, I am still very happy with the quality of my house. Matt Winter (the guy/general contractor in charge of building my house) is wonderful, and remains very responsive to any little question or possible problem I present him with. My mom enjoyed working with him immensely during construction, and I've only had 1 inquiry that turned out to be an actual problem since moving in. Matt and Lexar are dealing with this problem with as little pain to me as possible, and at no cost to me. Everything else has been my wild imagination, and explained to my satisfaction. In short, I have nothing but praise regarding my experience with Lexar Homes. There has only been once aspect of my experience with Lexar that I was not completely happy with. That is the sales lady's recommendation (before finalizing the contract) that I hire my own contractors for some of the work. She really encouraged this, claiming that customers enjoyed the "sweat factor" that came with doing so, and that it often resulted in less cost. However, perhaps because of the remote location, my mom had a terrible time finding contractors at all, let alone ones that I could afford and would meet scheduling deadlines. After all was said and done, I (and my poor mom) really felt that having Lexar do everything would have been much less stressful, and that any additional cost would have been minimal and more than worth the peace of mind it would have afforded. All in all, if I were to ever build another house, I would be perfectly happy to use Lexar Homes again.
Maureen herself acted as our agent, although she also owns and runs the agency, and she did terrific work on our behalf. We couldn't be happier. She was effective and highly professional, and we liked her personally very much. My husband and I felt listened to as well as competently advised as we worked through the sale process, and Maureen was such a pleasant, gentle, intelligent, and cheerful presence that we feel sure she must have many clients who, like us, would enjoy having her as a
friend.
We received two full-price offers for our house after only the first weekend of showings, both of them from well-qualified
buyers. Although the improving sales market no doubt played a part, we believe this also clearly attests to Maureen's skills in pricing and marketing our house.
In addition, she is a lifelong Boston resident who has a great deal of knowledge about the city's neighborhoods and a
network of professional contacts who provided valuable assistance that wouldn't have been available to us otherwise. We were always able to reach her easily and, when additional coverage was needed, her staff stepped in and managed whatever needed to be done without delay. They were all simply excellent, and delightful to work with in addition!
As anyone who has bought or sold a house knows, there are so many details, competing interests, and legal concerns involved in this kind of transaction that it is essential to have someone who, as Maureen did, thoroughly understands the issues involved and is able to clearly explain the options, risks, and benefits of the decisions that may need to be made.
When we encountered complications related to an easement, some contradictory city records, and whether or not there had
been termite damage at some point in the past (all common problems in an old city like Boston), what might have made this a stress-filled ordeal turned out to be as good an experience as anyone could hope for. We thank Maureen for that. Nothing ruffled her, all was manageable as far as she concerned, and this calm realism helped us greatly deal with everything. In the end, we had very happy people on both sides of the deal, a smooth transfer of the property to the new owners, and sufficient proceeds to invest in a new house on the other side of the country! Good work, Maureen and team, and thanks."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ma/jamaica-plain/maureen-mcelroy-reviews-340158.htm"},"position":5}]}

Lexar Homes (Olympic Peninsula, 360-379-1799) was and is so easy to work with! I can't imagine that building a new house is ever easy, and I was living abroad at the time my house was being built, which further complicated things. However, Lexar respected that it was to be MY house, so...

Heavenly Heat Infrared Saunas are made for the chemically sensitive. That means that our infrared saunas create an ideal, safe, and effective detoxification environment for anyone seeking to eliminate toxic substances from their body.
"Terrible! Wish I had gone with another company. Here is the issue with Heavenly Heat. If your sauna arrives damaged or and issue arrives -- they have zero technical support. Your repairs will be done by any "joe" that heavenly heat finds to do the repair in your area. They will have no experience with Sauna's and are given no instructions regarding the chemical free aspect of these sauna's. The worst part is the buyer, me, was treated as if I was the problem for wanting my sauna repaired correctly. I would have refused the delivery had I realized I was receiving a damaged sauna and would have to spend hours and days trying to get this resolved. The owner, Bob Morgan, is extremely responsive before he has your money but after, is a different story. When inquiring about the sauna he would respond generally within 10 minutes. After you purchase, and particularly if you have a problem with it, you are treated as if you're a nuisance. My sister bought a competitors sauna around the same time and the service she received from knowledgable representatives was a world of difference from my experience. My other issue was that there were shipping delays and Bob would never communicate them. I would have to pursue him to get information. I think they make a decent sauna but I would not recommend for reasons stated above."

"My chest freezer broke down and I did not want to buy a new one since I could not afford the same size. I reached out to appliance parts pro and they were confident that what I ordered would fix my problem. $200 in parts later and I now have a broken freezer on my porch and am still paying the loan to this terrible company. They just want you to order parts and try them because they know you can't return them. I hate this company with every fiber of my being and will make sure that anyone that has a broken appliance will not use them.

Appliancezone.com is a leading on-line retailer of appliance parts and accessories for do-it-yourself homeowners. Incorporated in 2008, it was started by CEO, Jim Allen and his wife Paula, who operated an appliance repair business for nearly fourteen years prior to starting the internet company Appliance Zone.
"This is the first online review I've ever written -- my experience with this company was that bad. Three aspects that deserve attention: 1) I placed an order and tried to cancel six minutes later. Turns out they don't accept cancellations. 2) I couldn't find a phone number, so I had to work the return/refund by email. The exchange was painful -- so unhelpful I felt like I was interacting with a bad chatbot. 3) I ended up eating shipping costs (expected) and got hit for a 50% restocking fee (unexpected) because I refused the package instead of paying to ship it back. Didn't matter that it went to the correct address, was clearly labeled, and had prior return authorization. So I ended up with a $21 refund on a $60 order, and a lesson learned about where not to buy appliance parts."

FAQs for appliance sale projects in Satsop, WA
If you’re debating whether it’s worth repairing a damaged appliance, consider a few factors, including the appliance’s age and the cost to replace it. Large, high-value appliances are worth repairing, especially when the fixes are minor and the appliance is only a few years old. However, if the cost of repairs is more than half the price of a new item, then it may be worth replacing it. For example, if your refrigerator repair costs continue increasing and add up to more than 50% of the cost to replace it, you’re better off buying a new one.
In most cases, appliance warranties do not transfer to new owners. However, some exceptions apply. To check the status of your appliance warranty and whether you can transfer it when you move, review the terms and conditions of your warranties or consult your home warranty service. When purchasing a new appliance or one from a previous owner, be sure to pay attention to its warranty status, including the type of coverage and any exclusions.
Typically, most appliances last anywhere from 10 to 15 years, depending on the appliance, brand, and amount of use. Keeping a regular maintenance schedule, including cleaning and tune-ups, also helps appliances last longer. Dryers, gas stoves, and refrigerators tend to last the longest, averaging about 13 to 15 years. Microwaves and dishwashers tend to last about 10 years on average.
There are a few scenarios when replacing all kitchen appliances simultaneously makes sense, including major renovations, moving into a new home, or purchasing as a set. If you want to refresh your kitchen upon move-in day or start over during a renovation, consider purchasing and replacing your kitchen appliances at once to save on labor costs. Also, if your appliances are all original to the home or are older and require increasing amounts of maintenance and repair, replacing them all at the same time may be a good option.
The cost of home appliances ranges from $350 to $8,000 or more, depending on the brand, type of appliance, and features. Additional cost factors include any hookups that need to be installed, such as gas, plumbing, or electrical. Keep in mind that major appliances, such as refrigerators, washers and dryers, and water heaters, will cost more than minor appliances, such as microwaves, due to the size, complexity, and essential nature of the item.
