You know what its like you see something that you HAVE GOT TO HAVE ...........

You sulk, you moan , you go on and on and on about it

Until you get it

Then you use it once, maybe twice

Then you DO NOT USE IT AGAIN :laughing:

What gadgets do you have in your home that you never use or you only use when you remember that you have got it

my breadmaker was free on freecycle i do use it but only once every 3 or 4 months so i've lent it to a friend by the time i get it back it will be like having a new toy so i will use it again

i bought a juicer in august and we love having fresh juice, i use it less and less but i know that it will get used occasionally

i am very restrained with gadgets i don't buy them very often as we have a tiny kitchen and nowhere to store them if i stop using them

I've got a juicer that's gathering dust on top of the cupboard!

I hate to admit we have gadgets that are rarely used but here's my few :blush:

Electric egg boiler
Electric steamer, use the one that goes on the cooker instead
Panini maker
Doughnut maker, used twice
Pasta maker, never been used.
2 ice cream makers
Slush machine, never been used
Pancake machine, never been used
Potato ricer, rarely used
Breadmaker has been made redundant now.
Sandwich toaster isn't used that much right now either.
A sewing machine that has only seen the light of day twice I think


Oh and I have a digital voice recorder that when connected to the laptop prints out straight from machine but I am too embarrassed to use it while I am out so haven't used it :blush:

I'm sure there are loads more we have that I haven't said

Chcolate fountain - it seemed like such a good idea at the time but cleaning it is a nightmare.
Sandwich toaster - more cheese comes out of it than stays in the ****** sandwich

my mum bought me a chocolate fountain! we used it that christmas and never since! (about 3 years ago or is it 4? !!!)

i was ruthless when we moved 4 years ago and got rid of everything i didn't use!:littleangel: then a year ago my mother in law gave me a bamix stick blender that she had bought ( for the bargain price of £99 :eek: ) i love it, use it lots, - my food processor was not getting used so i was going to freecycle it, but DH made me put it in th eloft, he refused to believe i wouldn't need it!

DH bought me a digital photo frame last christmas (or was it the one before :blush: ) still haven't got round to setting it up! i DO want to use it!

Bought a juicer and used it once and gave it away - too much faff!

Bread maker - used it a lot when I first had it but it is now collecting dust

Pop Corn maker - sits on the top of the cupboard - think about getting rid but you never know might need it

Potato ricer - used it when I first had it but can't be bothered anymore
