Weber 1647 18" Grill Brush

Cleaning your grill is essential because anything left on the grate will cause uneven heat when you cook. But when you've finished grilling some savory steaks, burgers, chickens, and veggies, the last thing you want to do is clean up the mess. With Weber's grill brush/scraper, it's really not so bad. This 18-inch brush/scraper has hardwood handles and brass bristles, so you won't be left with rusty residue or stubborn leftover grime. When you're finished, hang the tool by its leather strap until your next outdoor feast. --Rhonda Langdon

Customer Review:

strudy and reliable

The grill brush is not only well made but made to last. It is a practical gift for the man of the BBQ.

It's ok, but

The brush is ok but I think it is meant for the kettle grills and not the gas grill I purchased it for. The little metal tang on the front of the brush is useless for me. You can probably save a few bucks by going to your local hardward store and buying a wire brass brush.

Not the right product for the job

This is a typical grill brush. After a while the bristles will mash down and become next to useless. The scraper is not the right size for most grills, mine included, so it's useless unless you are lucky enough to have the exact right gauge of rod on your grill.

I recommended a different product called the Grill Wizard. Try that instead and you will be happier.

Strathwood Basic Elements Armchair (Set of 2)

With wide, comfortable seats and flat arms that double as a place to rest your drink, these well-made armchairs combine comfort with classic good looks. They’re perfect when paired with a table for al fresco dining. Both pieces are made from kapur wood, a high-density Southeast Asian hardwood with excellent weather-resistant properties. Light enough to move easily around deck or lawn, kapur requires no finishing and is exceptionally-sturdy--with enough oil to repel the ravages of rain, sun, and dew. Rust-resistant hardware and mortise and tenon construction also add to the pieces’ strength and durability.

Before shipment, your new furniture received a generous application of teak oil. Teak oil provides protection from the ultraviolet sunrays. Left untreated, Kapur will weather to a soft warm shade of gray similar to the weathering of teak. If you prefer to prevent this weathering process, you may apply additional coats of teak oil. The frequency of necessary teak oil applications will depend on the intensity of the sun in your environment, but typically, one or two coats per year is sufficient. Teak oil can usually be found at a marine dealer, hardware store, or internet dealer. If you allow your furniture to weather, you may later decide that you would want to restore it to its original condition. This is possible by using teak cleaner products, also available at most marine dealers and internet dealers. After following the instructions for cleaning, you will want to apply a coat of teak oil to prevent the weathering process.

The set’s preassembled components fit together easily with the help of an included allen wrench. Each armchair measures 23 inches wide, by 21-1/4 inches deep, by 32-1/4 inches high.--Mary Park

Customer Review:

good buy

i recently just purchased this chairs the first one that arrive has a damaged but they replaced it right away and i was so glad on the outcome when i assemble this chairs its easy to assemble and it is so sturdy and i love it so much so comfy to sit in and it looks good on our small patio.

great deal, but . . .

These chairs are sturdy and attractive--a great deal for the price. Note, however, that they are wider than specified. The given width, 23", is the width of the seat within the arms; the arms add another 5"-6" total, so the chairs take up a fair amount of space.

Just what I wanted!!

I was searching for redwood/teak wood patio furniture to complement my wood table and needed 6 chairs. While I found similar wood chairs at target.com and on ebay, the prices were higher, and the shipping costs made the purchase much to expensive. Amazon.com offered $84.99 for a set of two chairs and the supersaver shipping was free. I did have a few problems with shipping, but the product was great for the price,and was easy to put together. I ordered 3 sets of chairs. The first set came in about a week. The second set was the wrong style of chair and had to be returned. The third set of chairs arrived 3 weeks after I origionally ordered them, and the replacement set of chairs arrived aprox 4 weeks after the origional order. I now see that the price has increased from 84.99 to 99.99 for a set of two chairs. If the shipping is still free, it is still a great value, as the other venues charged as much or more for shipping as for the price of the chair. All in all, I was very pleased with the chairs. I was a bit frustrated with the shipping problems, but I finally got everything, and amazon.com gave me a small credit due to the shipping problems.

Customer Review:

"Programmable" sprinkler a great value

Had thought this sprinkler was no longer available; but a net search lead me to a link through Amazon, where the price was fantastic. This sprinkler allows you to "program" the watering pattern to maximize water use. It can water short and long distances in one rotation depending on your needs. Sounds tricky, but is easy with clear directions and "user friendly" mechanism on the sprinkler. Well worth the money. Delivery time was very quick.

Great sprinkler, easy to recalibrate on the fly!

I bought two of these sprinklers, one for the front yard, and one for the back yard. These things are great for anyone who doesn't have a perfectly round (rotary sprinklers) or rectangular (sweeping sprinklers) yard. They're really easy to calibrate and re-calibrate. I found myself tweaking the setup frequently to get just the right coverage (it varies depending on the wind of the day), and I found it very easy to move the sprinkler to different areas of the lawn and set it up to hit them just perfectly.

I'm buying a third one now. Apparently, these sprinklers aren't quite sturdy enough to withstand the wheels of a car. But when my neighbor accidentally ran one over and bought me a non-adjustable Gilmour sprinkler as a replacement, I didn't hesitate to order a new adjustable one myself (it was a kind gesture, and I guess it wasn't obvious from the mangled bits of plastic). :-)

Fantastic little sprinkler with easy adjustments

I own two of these sprinklers, one for each part of my backyard. Before I bought the first one, I read the online reviews and thought it sounded like an interesting concept. Well, it delivered everything as promised. I have a square backyard and an alley. The square part is too big to water with ordinary sprinklers. Now I put this sprinkler right in the center of the lawn and set the adjustments (only need to set them once if you don't change them) and it waters everything. It shoots all the way to the corners (about 40ft), but then doesn't shoot over the fence or hit my patio when it gets to the shorter distances. The one for the alley is adjusted to shoot all the way up the alley (about 30 feet) and then it arcs toward my fence and shoots a 4ft. spray. These sprinklers do a great job. One thing to keep in mind: in order to avoid having to adjust the sprinkler every time you use it, it is easiest to simply place the sprinkler back in the same spot every time you use it. If you place it in a different spot, then the adjustments will have to be redone.
