Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought this product based on the brand name, local store endorsement and amazon reviews. It worked great until about 10 days after the 1 year warranty expired. Then I started to notice water on the floor, despite my regular emptying of bucket and the fact that the bucket was not overflowing. I checked the bucket for leaks. There were none. The area underneath the bucket on one side only was consistently wet. It appears that the unit itself is leaking and allowing water to bypass the bucket opening and run down the bucket housing. I contacted the company 18 days after the one year date of purchase. I was not able to speak to a human being (that was not an option) but did get an email telling me that unfortunately, the 2-5 year warranty does not cover my problem. I paid about $250 for the unit and expected it to last longer than one year. I will not buy a Frigidaire or Electrolux product again. Too bad for them since I am getting ready to remodel my kitchen and purchase major appliances.
