Refrigerator seal was deteriorating, not sealing well.
I was hesitant to remove old seal, after I removed, I lined up new seal, and the seal popped into the slots very easily. Easy repair, no tools, worked great. The seal takes about 24 hour to seat itself for a great fit.

Shattered glass shelf insert
Thank you for the prompt delivery. I thought it was going to be a big problem to get a replacement shelf, but I ordered online and had my part in 3 days! Very easy to insert. Did lay carton on the floor and pulled out the insert. At 83 my strength isn't what is used to be, but it came out pretty easy. I am beyond thrilled with the service. Thank you.

Replacing filter
Really easy, simple instructions, and it was on my doorstep 3 days after I ordered. Much simpler than dealing with the appliance store, where I'd have to drive to the store, order the filter, wait 7-10 days, and return to pick it up. Ughh! Internet is the way to go!
