This is bar none the worst sales job I have ever seen. When advertising a kitchen oven, the top two things you don't want to mention would probably be:Now, I'm not sure which is worse, #1 or #2. But either way they're both really bad!
- The oven is large enough for your kids to crawl inside, and
- The oven's door lock will prevent them from escaping.
The LG LRE30453ST Electric Range at Vann's"big enough to fit two plump German children inside" ... "the door lock would be perfect for keeping them inside."Obviously, the description's intent is to elicit humor. But that's just not something you want to be humorous about!

Amanda — 2008-09-25 16:15:57 US/Pacific —Oh my gosh! That is absolutely horrible! Humor gone awry for sure. |
Lori — 2008-09-25 21:25:27 US/Pacific —Hard to believe it is on their regular public website as a product description -- someone in their marketing department really messed up! |
Mom — 2008-09-26 10:57:20 US/Pacific —Yuck, the product description sure does NOT make me want to run right out and buy one! |
