Oh! How I would love one of those new energy efficient french door fridges and new dishwasher, but waiting for my 1992 white side by side Whirlpool to breakdown. Shhhh, I better be quiet huh!
We just went all around the foundation of
Jr & Mommy Buttons, who is in doggie heaven now (10-16-09) rest in peace my sweet furbaby. Your son Jr & and I miss you!
I would love one of those French door fridges too! Not sure it would fit in my kitchen though... Especially concerned about whether or not the doors would open properly with that island of ours... But I HATE or current side-byside since there isn't enough room in either side (freezer or fridge) for large platters, etc.).
And I want to replace our built-in oven and microwave, wondering if it is possible to come up with a double oven/microwave in that space. Holiday meals are a logistical trial with only one oven!

From what I see through Google, those who sell the additive that makesppint into a radiant energy barrier are all enthusiastic about it's efficiency; those who make other kinds of radiant energy barriers (foils, spry on foams, etc.) are equally dismissive! I can't find a page that gives a pro-con write-up.
