    Advice on purchase of new Food Processor

    Ever considered a Kenwood? They produce rather good quality stand mixers, and have loads of attachments, the mixer attachments like the whisk, k beater, and dough hook is of realy good quality and rather strong.

    Looking for a cookware set, not sure where to start!

    Brabantia We have a set of Brabantia cookware for more than 13 years now and it looks just as new, given it is not non stick, it does have a nice solid bottom, but not too heavy like Le Creuset, to me they (Le Creuset) are just too heavy and not really dishwasher safe according to our local Le...

    My first Miele Laudry Appliance

    I don't think that it was a stacked unit as the washer usually goes under the dryer, but I do think it is a built-in model and not free standing. Be that as it may hopefully you will get a few years still out of your new found appliance. Regards,

    Drying times? washer-dryer combo

    If I can add something why not try using a heatpump condensor so that the condensor can be cooled by the waste product in the cycle of the heatpump thereby reducing the amount of water that is used to cool the condensor. Or would it be cost prohibtive? Regards

    Comfort Lift Dishwasher

    But you still need to bow down to get the rack up plus I think it can get dangerous if there are a few heavy pots and pans on the bottom rack, what if the mechanism just disengages, talking abbout law suites in USA. Just my take on it, but really glad to see that AEG is stepping up to the plate...

    Hi all, I just stumbled upon this video earlier today. The corrosion on the assemble looks horrible, could it really be due to bad metals used in the machine? I would like to know your thoughs on this. Regards,

    Not quite a bob load

    Just something to the new owner of the Miele Dishwasher, the cycle times of most European models are much longer than their American counterparts. We have a Siemens and the cycle times on your machine is pretty much on par with ours, the turbo I would suggest is almost like a half-load wash...

    Samsung Smart Hub

    Wow!!! I am definitely getting on in years, I can't believe there are actually freezers talking to my oven or toaster. I can't for the life of me see the actual need for it, yes for the first few weeks I can imagine the new feeling of it all, but after the novelty wears off you would have...

    Lye Soap

    Just made my first batch of home made soap yesterday evening - I used the cold method but in time will experiment with the hot method as well. I used coconut oil and olive oil with the lye aka drain cleaner. Was a bit sceptical with regards to the drain cleaner, but it looked like it worked...

    Is a more expensive crockpot (slow cooker) worth it?

    Ok, then I think I must get rid of my slow cooker. Maybe it has reached the end of its lifespan. Apparently if there is any cracks in the Ceramic lining it could leach lead, but don't quote me on that. It will give me an excuse to go out and buy a new one. Cheers

    Is a more expensive crockpot (slow cooker) worth it?

    On this note I would also like to know if we can continue to use our slow coocker as the ceramic insert has hundreds of small cracks all through the pot. Another thing that bothers me is the taste its almost as if all the food that comes out of that thing tastes the same, could it be the cracks...

    How Do We Feel About Grundig...?

    I also agree with Foraloysius, and would also side with the Bosch appliances I don't think that the Grundigs are as top quality as they would suggest, its more of a rebranding game I suppose. Like dressing up a pig, its still a pig.

    How Do We Feel About Grundig...?

    Water restrictions?! just keep in mind that a washer dryer combo usually uses water to cool down the drum and or condensor unit, and you know that in Cape Town and the rest of the country we have huge water restrictions and water problems, so just make sure the machine does not use water in the...

    Old cars vs New cars

    @ gizmo I hope that you enjoy many years of driving pleasure in your new VW. I had a 2011 Passat 1,8 petrol, also fitted with the DSG. I really loved the car but the DSG not so much. We had endless troubles with the DSG and VW kept on saying we were driving the thing in a wrong manner. The...

    Liquid vs Powder vs Pods.

    If I could just weigh in here, we have tried liquid detergents a few times, I note that they are very heavily doused with perfumes and that they tend to leave our washing machine with a foul smell after taking out the washing. A very musty mouldy smell that is. That never happened with regular...

    Air Purifiers

    Thanks a million Louise!! We have had an uphill battle with our little one since day one, but things are slowly starting to improve. We have noted that things like smoke, and dust does agrevate his ashtma, but we are learning to control it. Thank again for your advise. Regards
