Verified site experience
Reason I chose this business:

Had chairs cheaper. Awful search engine though. Even when I knew every detail of the chairs I wanted I couldn't get back to them without consulting my history. Got names of people and all kinds of other crazy stuff. I had to either go back in through the tree of menus as I had done a couple times before or use history.

The only reason to use the site is that it shows precipitation as a quantity rather than a probability and a picture to show the volume. Otherwise it's awful. Right as you start to see the trend in the ten-day data it suddenly overlays the data with an ad that you have to mouse to and dismiss. Intensely annoying. It's also really slow because it lays out the page block by block and doesn't know where the information will be until all the ads before it are loaded. And neither do you. You just have to sit and wait. But the app is worse.It's funny, I used to have a good feeling about IBM and now I hate whatever remains of it. And I have no real idea what the company even does anymore. Or even what country is based in. Rumor has it it belongs to the Chinese now.

My Amazon searches are now all gunked up with sponsored adds that appear out of price order and in violation of my criteria! I've even ordered the wrong thing assuming it was the same as all the other cables on the list. Walmart has greatly improved, has many of the same small sellers I got in my amazon results, and now has an area in the store near us dedicated to online returns (pick up too but I'd rather have it shipped free to me). And you can return stuff w/o a reason and still for free.

I decided to go ahead and subscribe to support newspapers in general but the subscription site is awful. It offers a low price trial but there's no way to find out what the eventual cost would be. I decided to do it anyway but the continue button doesn't work no matter where I try it on my screen, using the continue button in the typing section, and/or repeating the process. Not bothering to contact them since I didn't really want to subscribe anyway and have a subscription to the New York Times. Just giving up. Printer paper is small skinny and expensive and I feel bad they're struggling but I think they deserve it.

I didn't want to pay and found my place on another service, but I've never had a site automatically stop sending unwanted emails and I was surprised and pleased when they sent the last email saying that if you don't log in for a week they stop sending you lists. Wish all sites did that!

Usually -- turnaround from Houzz is WAYYYYY too long. We'll see -- this states 1 week...

So far so good, let's hope the item ordered is good quality and undamaged in shipping.
