Best King Oversized Flat Sheet of the Decade, No more fighting.

This Kingnex Oversized King Flat Sheet, 132x110", Top Sheet is the best king oversized flat sheet of the decade, no more fighting over the top sheet at night!

It's made with Soft Double Brushed 1800 Microfiber and Extra Wide for a King Bed.

I got this because I was frustrated with sheets that did not tuck under the mattress on both sides.

I was frustrated with paying a premium price for King sized top sheets that weren't wide enough, or soft enough!

This sheet is WIDE! There's so much extra sheet on the sides that your can tuck it in on both sides, and create a tight cocoon.

It's also SOFT! Some other high end top sheets still were not soft after multiple washings. This sheet is soft right out of the package. We gave it a wash before using and it came out great. 

Color selection is great too.

This my greatest discovery in top sheets and has improved my life. If I want another color, I'm getting this one.

 Installation instructions

I fixed some problems with page 5 of the Big Ass Fans Haiku L instructions.

I fixed some problems with page 5 of the Big Ass Fans Haiku L instructions.

For the first steps, 1, 2, and 3 I would re-order them as 2, 3, and 1. 

1. Connect the ground wire, 2. Connect the safety cable, and then 3. Secure the extension tube.

Then, just before step number 4, add a step that says, “Pull down the wires”, because giving the wires some slack will make it a lot easier to plug in the wiring harnesses.

Then there is a missing step after number five. There needs to be an added step that says, “Slide down the motor cover, and then screw it in to secure”. Then you go to the last step which is, “Slide down the trim”.

Extended Strikes Plates Protect the Edge of Your Door Frame

What do you do when the strike plates on your door frame don't protect the edge of the frame?

As you can see from the photo below, the latch on the door strikes the door frame, and THEN it strikes the strike plate. 

When I asked the builder about this, they said, "Those are standard strike plates. You have to turn the handle so it doesn't hit the door."

What!

What?

Because of THEIR POOR DESIGN, I HAVE TO THINK ABOUT this every time I close a door?

No. 

Searching the web, I found out that I am not alone. 

I found this post, Craftsman Trim and Extended Strike Plates, talking about the same problem.

Here are some photos showing the situation.

Solution

It turns out that there's a solution. Extended Strike Plates.

You can get them from The Hardware Hut.

UPDATE:

These strike plates worked so well. I installed eight of them in minutes. It was SO EASY!  Here are before and after photos:

I tried to follow directions and drill a hole 3/4 of an inch down from the ceiling, but the drill won’t fit that close to the ceiling, so I ended up doing 1 1/4 inches. When drilling a hole for the anchor I found that 3/16 of an inch worked well.
