I wonder if anyone can help - I lent my Kitchen Aid KSM90 Classic (4.5Qt Bowl) to my mother in law to try, and she then decided to buy her own. She bought a Artisan mixer, with the Artisan bowl which i THINK is 5 Qt size. Now she does a lot of cooking and decided to use both mixers hence mixed...

I would never buy from Comet again ANYTHING! I bought a DVD player from there, an expensive one in fact in 2001, it broke 3 months in and had been used only for 2 DVD's! I went in and asked for an exchange since it had literally never been used - I went to university and never took it with me...

Rob, you sure have your work cut out for you! Althought I love the idea of being able to wash the carpet in a big machine! I would do that if I could. I have chickens trying to get into the house all the time and when they do they tend to poo on the entrance carpet, I bought a steamer for this...

2800 rpm baby! AquaCycle - I have to disagree, I purchased a seperate spin dryer last year to try and save energy and time drying clothes, and I have to say, its one of the best laundry appliances I bought! The spin speed is 2800 rpm and the clothes come out if it noticably dryer than they...

PassatDoc your response seems to be very passionate, however I have had to re-read the thread in case I missed something, was all that post just from Jon joking that he is going to spike the vicars tea with vodka? Or have I in fact missed something? As for the kettle thing, well if your used to...

Oh Jon thats great news! We will have to get together for alittle wash in sometime! Have you been on the Robin Hood experience yet - its so funny! I am going to be between Derbyshire and the SOuth from September - hopefully to become Dr Sparkle!

I love the light up panel on it - I think id use it as lighting in the evening maybe with just another table lamp - it really gives a lovely homely appearance! Your all so lucky that your American appliances are so beautiful, I do not know of many English appliances that light up in such a way...

Hi Jon! Long time no speak!!! Love the flat - where are you, your not in Notts are you? WOW if you are then we can meet up I'm in Derbyshire! Love the dryer! Be careful with counter top dishwashers there are lots of rubbish ones out there - the Swan / Kenwood ones are awful! Have a Bosch...

How many Loads? robliverpool - is that right that "5 loads a day seven days a week"? I also read you live alone, thats a TON of washing! I wash a lot, but even I cannot manage to do all that! Love the Swan, how is the build quality and do you know who actually makes the machine? I know 21st...

I am beside myself, I have just got home and opened the dishwasher to empty and noticed I have done the most STUPID THING! I filled up the salt last night and set it off on an intensive wash, however FORGOT to put the cap back on the salt resiviour. So with the cap off the cycle has been run...

For me its got to be a circa 1983 Bang & Olufsen BeoCenter, I do have a 1960's Swan electric kettle but I am scared to use it as it does not turn off after boiling, just plug it in and thats it - no switch on it at all! I still use my Smith Corona typewriter tho, I think that was from the 70's...

Kenwood? Do you guys not have Kenwood in the USA?

Oh I saw this in John Lewis - its a monster of a mixer! However that price tag!!!!! Hmm not sure that I would use it though. I think it would be great for proving bread, but I can do this in the airing cupboard too. Also soup would be good but I do not think I would use it at all. I do love...

Fire Link Here is the electric fire I saw, this one is on display at the London Science Museum.

duet83 - what you call a flash light is indeed a torch over here. I love our language differences, I never knew you called a torch a flash light! I'd be in trouble if I needed to buy one in the US! Other I can think of are: Tap = Faucet Live Wire = Hot Paraffin = Kerosene Meths = Mineralised...

LOL! I'm loving the vintage PC in the kitchen! Of course a stand alone non internet computer could do SO much in the kitchen in the 80's!!! LOL Oh I just love it!

No Soul That machine just doent seem to have a soul! I look at it and it does nothing for me! I hate rental places since you have to use the machines supplied, I think its actually better to find somewhere that does not have a machine installed! Oh Paul I see your in Derby too! Small world!

Don't beat yourself up! Ok it happend, you cannot change the past, just draw a line under it and move on, you CANNOT punish yourself for breaking the washer - punish yourself for what? Being human? We are human, we make mistakes! Unlock the dish washers, and ENJOY THEM!!! Lets look at this...

LOL! I love the 80's kitchen!!!! Oh I think its SO interesting your new kitchen tho, cos I look at it and think it looks just like lots of European kitchens - seriously if you showed me that kitchen I would swear it was in a British house!. HOWEVER Our kitchen was chosen because it looked...
