Conserve SE215 [RE-wrenches]

[Bob-O Schultze, Electron Connection]

<x-flowed>Howdy Ned,
Several years ago, when Photocomm/Golden Genesis first started to 
carry the Vestfrost (now Conserve) freezers , I bought one for 
Kathleen. It drew about 1KW/H per day. I figured it was faulty and 
sent it back. They sent me a new one. Same thing. They then admitted 
that ALL of them were overspec and there was a MATH error when they 
converted from 230V to 115V. Un-huh. They SAID they would put out a 
flyer to all dealers and customers. Never happened, never will. I had 
great hope that Kyocera would clean out the, shall we say, 
less-than-honest folks in the PComm/GG/now Ky management. I'm still 
hoping. Until then, I do business with someone else.
