Re: Electrical items that dont last

A Russell Hobbs toaster I bought about 2 months ago. Worked fine for 3 weeks until the pop-up mechanism decided not to stay in the down position. Absolute junk. My cheap Bosch mixer burnt out after 3 attempts at making bread dough. I now have a heavy duty Kenwood Chef and it's amazing!

Our Electric kettle just packed in we only purchased it 18 months ago.we bought a morphy richards retro style one,looked nice for the look of it.Half price at £29 wont be buying another one.Its annoying that everything is made in China when we had manufacturing in the UK IN THE 1950,S-1970S things were made to last but not any more.The value range from Asda lasted longer than this heap of junk
