EPA finds fault with Consumer Reports Energy Star article
As energy prices continue to rise in this country, it's no wonder that American consumers are shopping for more efficient cars, appliances, and other products. At Consumer Reports, we have long recognized the importance of energy efficiency and in recent months have paid even greater attention to the subject, including a July 2008 cover story on gas-saving sedans. (Read more about fuel efficiency.) The theme of our October 2008 issue, on sale and online now, is "Save Energy, Save Money" (cover, right). We review tankless water heaters and compact fluorescent lightbulbs and reveal energy-efficient products that will save you money. We also include a checklist of 25 easy ways for you to cut your energy use at home. But the October story that's so far received the most buzz is "Energy Star Has Lost Some Luster," which highlights some problems with this federal program administered by the U.S. Department of Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA has taken issue with aspects of the story. I've received e-mails from federal officials about our story and earlier today spoke with an EPA representative about the agency's concerns. Let's just say that, for now, we agreed to disagree. (Other organizations, including the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy, recognize the importance of our findings.) You can read the EPA's response to our story by clicking on "EPA's Response to Consumer Reports Oct 2008 article on ENERGY STAR" in the headlines section on the Energy Star Web site. And check out our reply to the EPA: Download consumer_reports_response_to_epa.pdf. Look for continued coverage of Energy Star on this blog and on ConsumerReports.org.—Steven H. Saltzman

Convection oven cookie bake-off
Three is better than one or two, right? That's often the case, but not when you're talking about the cooking evenness of the three-fan convection oven on the Samsung FTQ386LWUX electric range. In a recent cookie bake-off, we pitted the $1,300 Samsung range against the LG LRE30955 electric range, $2,000. Read more about our findings and watch the video (right). Essential information: If you're in the market for a new range, read our latest report, which includes ratings (available to subscribers) of more than three dozen electric, gas, and dual-fuel models.
