Sony NW-E003F Good – This is a great little MP3 player, great for those first time users, or for those that want something that is no nonsense, and easy to use. This is fantastic little MP3 player.… The sound is great. Its easy to find songs and it holds a lot of songs. The built in USB design is great also and its superquick to charge on your computer. I go for walks and it doesn't skip a beat, A great, no nonsense, no bells and whistles MP3 player. Like others have said, you cannot read the LED screen in daylight, only in a dark room! This is very annoying I must say. The software is confusing, but tolerable. |

Kambrook KSK50 Excellent – This is a great kettle. I have had it for over a month, there has been no leaks, and I can't fault anything about. And for the price ($40 at woolies or $30 when on special) you… cannot fault it. I brought this kettle based on the above review and have not been disappointed. It is a fantastic kettle. I looked at more expensive brands and for $30 you cannot go wrong. It's quiet, boils really quickly, has a removable filter and looks really good in the kitchen. The water level indicator is easy to read in indicates the level in both cups and litres which is handy. Has a broad base, but so what? Still looks good |

Canon IXUS 860IS Excellent – This is a fantastic camera and worth the money spent. The photo quality is great and the resolution meants that it produces really clear enlargements. This is a fantastic little… camera. It takes fantastic photo's and the shutter is so quick from the time you press the button (great for unpredictable babies!) Photos are of great quality and enlarge really nicely. There are so many features on the camera that I've stopped using my SLR because it does near the same for me. It takes great night shots too. When taking photo's with the flash, the foreground is usually a bit too bright for my liking leaving the background very dark. I usually find it takes a better photo without the flash, and it has to be night for it to work well. At Twilight it works really great without a flash. |

Kenwood Ariete Original Deluxe SC2000 Good – This is a great, inexpensive steam mop that I really enjoy using, and is so much better than a mop and bucket. The pads are easily cleaned in the wash with a bit of… bleach/napisan. I like that this product folds away compactly and easily in the cupboard. It is really easy to use and cleans stubborn marks on floors quickly. It dries very quickly after wiping with little or no streaks. Generally it is a great product. If you have a big area to clean (like I do) the cord is way too short. I've found that you have to find a power point that is central in the house, with an extension cord and work back from the four corners of your house back to the power point in order to no walk over what you have just mopped. The instruction manual says wait 3-4 minutes to see steam and start using but if you do this, the mop and floor is saturated. You need to wait more like 10 mins before you can start using the mop. |

Breville Ikon BTA550 / CT70 Terrible – I, unlike others, found this toaster to be complete rubbish and has put me off buying any other breville products. I brought this toaster as it looked good and was reasonably… priced after owning a sunbeam. Worked well for 12 months, toasted evenly then the problems began.... After 12 months the digital dial stopped working, the handle to depress the toast wouldn't stay down by itself so I had to stand alongside the toaster, the beeper to tell me that the toast had cooked would go off when it felt like it, including in the middle of the night. |
