Review for Kenwood FP580 Food Processor 2 Speed White:
Perfect for small kitchens
After seeing this bargain food processor on the website I trawled round a few shops to do some comparisons and it definitely came out ahead. I’ve used it a few times now and it’s brilliant, the price is fantastic. One of the best things is it’s size, because the base fits both the processor and the blender it only takes up a small amount of room in my tiny kitchen. The one slight downfall is that all the fittings can’t fit in the processor for storage so you still have some cupboard space to find, however this is a small price to pay for the amount of fittings you get.103
Review for Temptations by Russell Hobbs 13523 Single Chocolate Fountain with heated stainless steel base and keep warm function:
We were very disappointed with it and will revert to the fondue set instead which melts the chocolate and doesn't need or waste so much.

Review for Temptations by Russell Hobbs 13523 Single Chocolate Fountain with heated stainless steel base and keep warm function:
Great disappointment
I gave this as a present to my parents with great expectations. Unfortunately it is a let down. It doesn't melt the chocolate - that has to be done in a pan - and it wastes so much afterwards in cleaning it - even after saving the excess in a bowl. You need too much chocolate to make it work so you can't just put in less or it won't cascade.We were very disappointed with it and will revert to the fondue set instead which melts the chocolate and doesn't need or waste so much.

Microwave & Amazon
Bought this based on the Which? report, it was judged the best standalone solo microwave. It is a bit plastic-y, and the first one I received was broken (not encouraging). Credit to Amazon though, they sent a replacement that arrived the next day - well done Amazon! New one great, and so far working as hoped! Would recommend it.105

Review for Morphy Richards Accents Traditional Kettle 43691 Red:
Bad paint job
I have had no problem with the taste in my kettle, although my son says he had, but the paint finsh started to deteriorate almost immediately, at first I thought I had scratched it but soon spots started to appear all over the kettle and my son is experiencing the same problem, I have a black one, my son a cream one, I am aware that several other people have had the same experience although I believe Morphy Richards do not seem to think there is a problem, however, mine has gone back and like a previous reviewer I am left with a matching toaster. I did look at replacing the kettle with a similar model but on checking the one on display I found it had the beginnings of the same paint deterioration.106

It's the dogs b********!!
Just bought this one to replace the earlier model. I had this for six years and apart from christmas time has completely replaced my conventional oven. Yes it is a bit large but that is it's best feature! We use this to cook a full roast for six people with no problems. I can't praise this item enough. Saves time and more importantly saves money!Don't hesitate. Buy one!

Review for Prestige A La Carte Electric 28cm Non-stick cooker:
This is a highly versatile piece of equipment which is very economical to use and very controllable. You can sear steak on it or have the heat down really low to just quietly simmer things for hours. It is also excellent for cooked breakfasts with plenty of room for bacon, mushrooms eggs etc., all in the one easy to clean pan.
All the friends/family who have seen it have been impressed and wanted to know where we got it. A highly recommended product.

Still brilliant
I had an earlier version of this, with a ceramic insert for slow cooking and a metal grid for baking things on, as a student 30 years ago. When we needed something similar for our boat last year I had real trouble finding one, so thank you Amazon!This is a highly versatile piece of equipment which is very economical to use and very controllable.

pure luxury
Buying this for a friend as i now own one due to a staff member going on about hers and whats she's having when she gets in without cooking! My first dish was a soup and my goodness what a life and time saver,I was able to have a good nights sleep without having to wake n check every so often,got up saturday morning my soup was cooked well,you couldn't get the meat any softer than what it was,soooooooooooooooooo soft just like cotton wool! I had all saturday to myself which i spent with my feet up and doing my word search with a glass of bacardi breezer--pure luxury and a fantastic purchase-every woman should own one of these instead of a man!!!!112

Review for Russell Hobbs 10810 Glass Panini Press:
Yum Yum
I bought my husband one of these for a joke Christmas present this year (domestic appliances not being high on his list of priorities unless I am making something with them!). Of all the presents we received as a household this year, this was the most successful. We must now all weigh a little bit heavier as we are constantly full of yummy panninis. Our current favourite is cheese and marmite.Its easy to use, easy to clean, works fast and delivers delicious snacks with just about any kind of bread you can find in a supermarket. Highly recommended purchase!

Review for Russell Hobbs 12709 - You Are What You Eat - Electric Salad Xpress:
good little gadget
i agree with the first reveiw some of the carrots do get stuck ,but ive found it to be mostly when using smaller veg.other than that great! the spinner works well and mainly the best thing is the ease of which it cleans within 5 minutes of using, and having used a food processor alot that a brilliant bonus! not just a gimmic, worth the extra over an ordinary salad spinner, would have got five stars if not for the veg problem but overall im happy114
Review for Siemens by Porsche Design jug kettle stainless steel:
When you see the interior of this kettle, there's no way it could"leak".
I think a lot of the negative stuff is about the FIRST generation Porsche kettle. There were a few probs indeed with things in that range, but this is the 2nd gen Porsche design. It's absolutely sound. VERY FAST TOO.

Really good quality, safe and easy
I read these reviews after I already ordered this kettle, so I got a bit scared! but decided to try it out anyway. A few months down the line and I can say that nothing has happened to this kettle. I love it, it's perfect.When you see the interior of this kettle, there's no way it could"leak".

So Easy!
I bought this for my fiance as a christmas present, and we tried it out for our New years party, and it was wonderful. It is so easy to use, you just oil the plates, spoon in the batter, and wait three minutes. The donuts came out perfect every time and were enjoyed by all.116

Review for Morphy Richards Dome Quiet Boil Jug Kettle 43318 Red and Polished Stainless Steel:
Very good performer
I bought this kettle about a month ago but it was the white plastic version. I must say I have been extremely pleased with it so far. It does just what it says on the tin; it boils quickly and very quietly (one of the quietest kettles I have used and a great improvement on the previous Krups kettle I had, which sounded like a jet taking off; the spout is quite large and it pours well; it is easy to fill and the the water volume window is easy to see and read (and gently illuminated during boiling). All in all a very good, practical kettle. Just what you want. I'd buy one again on this initial evidence.117

Review for Russell Hobbs 12621 600W Smoothie Maker with 1.7 litre capacity and ice crushing blade:
"For want of a nail the shoe was lost"
Having been initially pleased with this smoothie maker, I have now encountered the same problem as a previous reviewer - the tap retaining ring has broken in half. I always feared that this part was the weakest link as it is a small plastic ring which could easily get lost or broken and after 3 months I have been proven right. RH Customer Services said that they had received no other complaints about this part - clearly not true - and told me I could buy a replacement tap. As the product is still under warranty I shall return it instead. Although this is a good looking appliance and when it works makes good smoothies, I feel unable to recommend it because of the frailty of this ring.119

Review for Kenwood TT720 2 Slice Compact Stainless Steel Toaster:
I make my own bread (with a kenwood breadmaker which has worked well for the last 6 months) and my older dualit toaster I had only has 20mm slots which was ocassionaly a pain for larger slices, but this has around 30mm slots so is perfect.
Only gave 4/5 as I only got it recently so will have to see if it stands the test of time.
Would recommend.

Another quality item from Kenwood!
I agree with the other reviews, does the job well and is amusing to watch this futuristic machine slowly consume the bread and then present you with perfect toast every time, warming rack is handy too.I make my own bread (with a kenwood breadmaker which has worked well for the last 6 months) and my older dualit toaster I had only has 20mm slots which was ocassionaly a pain for larger slices, but this has around 30mm slots so is perfect.

Great quality product
Fantastic product. It does the following exceptionally well:1. Looks good, stylish yet utilitarian - does not over do the design
2. Well made: heavy gauge stainless steel, rubber where there should be rubber and a lovely soft opening lid. This really is a quality product worth the extra
3. Easy read filling gauge which lights up with a blue light when on - looks great and really functional
4. Fantastic base with retractable flex facility
Overall: well designed, well made and looks good. I would buy another at the same price.
