Household Appliances
 
I have been having great fun this morning with a power washer. I bought it a couple of weeks ago for about £30 as we are in the process of doing up the garden. I thought it would be handy to clean the path and decorative walls with.

I have used it for the first time today to jet wash the wheelie bin which had developed a nasty smell and was housing a family of slugs..:D

What fun it was..... I have also tested it on part of the wall and all I can say is that I wish that I hadn't had a shower before doing this because I now need another one.:D The muck that came off the bin and the wall was unbelieveable and it was brilliant to use. The only problem was that I must have developed a bit of back pressure in the hose and have soaked a fair bit of the kitchen. I do, however believe that I now have the cleanest wheelie bin in the borough.

This is my new favourite household appliance.. What's yours and why? :)

I got it at Asda at Easter. It may have been on special offer but they were £20 dearer at Homebase at the time.

I also love the powerwasher, usually use it on the car but last week I did the decking, what a difference it makes. The dishwasher is also a favourtite of mine though didn't want one at first, love it now.

My favourite household appliance?

Washing Machine - it is until i come to do the ironing
Dryer - same as the washing machine
Fridge Freezer - It keeps stuff fresh mind you it does need defrosting
Cooker - this must be my favourite seeing as i eat the results until it comes to cleaning it
TV - nowt good on tv at the minute so dont really watch it
Video - cant be bothered plus ive forgotten how to set it to tape something!!!
so really it must be the COOKER.

My favorite appliance has got to be my steam cleaner. It saves me hours defrosting the freezer. It's a god send all round the house.
Then it's the George foreman Grill.
TV
Washer
Dryer
Computer
All things I can't live without.

Come to think of it, it's probably the grill. Mine's a Rosemary Conley but it's the same as a George Foreman.
