As creatures of convenience, we love our household appliances. Except when they break down, at which time we emit colorful language and threaten trips to the landfill. But a major appliance failure doesn’t always mean “major expense” or “major pain in the glutes”. Some repairs are quite simple (and dirt cheap) if you’re willing to tackle them yourself. Today we’re looking at a typical glass cooktop electric range that has assumed room temperature. The bake element and part of one stove element have stopped working.

Samsung Refrigerator Repair – How to Repair Water in Your Crisper Drawer
About one appliance warranty and a few months ago we bought a new Samsung refrigerator. We had a bit of an odd-sized space, and the particular Samsung model we purchased was one of the few French door styled fridges that would fit in our kitchen without major modifications.
