    How to Keep a White Ceramic/Glass Cooktop Looking Like New

    I have this cooktop in white As a bachelor, I rarely use my wonderful Whirlpool/IKEA cooktop for cooking but when I have done I have noticed scuff marks from my metal pans. I try to let the heating element(s) thoroughly cool down before cleaning the surface. I was wondering if there were a...

    Help - Please Name This Bath Sink

    Hi Redwood, I appreciate your comments but I will probably go with a drop-in rectangular to save money and give me a bit more height, which is always nice (I don't have to bend over so far). Fwiw, aside from providing an ordering medium for the countertop and vanity, "making a Home Depot...

    Help - Please Name This Bath Sink

    Hi Joe, The Formica samples that I looked at with the Home Depot bath designer were pretty nice to me and I would custom order the finish. My decorator looked at the catalog and she is happy with it. That's not to say that I won't consider other alternatives but I have to stay on budget. I...

    Heat Pump for Mobile in Seattle?

    I have decided on the beautiful Pfister Skye F-049-SYKK faucet and I want an undermount-type rectangular sink. As I am doing a Formica countertop (maybe) a Home Depot bath designer told me that I couldn't mount the handles & faucet onto the Formica (?). If this is true then no big deal as I...

    Heat Pump for Mobile in Seattle?

    I am thinking about having a heat pump installed for my single-wide mobile home. I'm not sure what the installed cost will be and have not gotten estimates yet. The forced air furnace works OK and I supplement that with an electric oil burner portable heater so the FA heat only comes on 2 or 3...

    Under-counter Reverse Osmosis Water Filter

    I am currently using a Brita filter pitcher and the water here is pretty grey un-filtered. I moved from a place where I had my own well and the water was a bit "hard" (mineral taste) but delicious.

    Under-counter Reverse Osmosis Water Filter

    I'm doing a small remodel on my kitchen and will be tackling the sink next. I've decided that I would like to install a reverse osmosis water filter under the kitchen counter. I stopped by Home Depot but they only had Brita and GE units at my local store. I found this Water Filter Comparison...
