Amana SX 522V

Advantages: Cleans everything.
Disadvantages: No storage for the mains wire and plug which tends to get twisted.

...Purchased Vax 6151SX after my second hand Dyson completely died !!! Before buying the Vax I thoroughly researched vacuums plus and so glad I did. This is fandabadosey - does everything except the ironing !!! I've had it a week now- my house has never looked cleaner. When it arrived my son (12 years) and I unpacked the box, it was like Christmas, so many packets and attachments to open and discover. I found the instruction leaflet simple to understand, no problems at all, my son has also leant how to use it, with no problem - though think the husband may find it difficult, he'd only just learnt how to turn on the Dyson.

At first, all these different pipes and brushes were a bit confusing... Read review

Disadvantages: Door shelves a bit too deep and not quite high enough, annoying beep when doors left open too long

...Once you've renovated your kitchen, your old fridge might just seem a bit outdated. And if you have a large family (or even an average sized one that have good appetites) you might just find that you'll be in the market for a new fridge. After having suffered greatly with my old fridge, which was too small, had no way to move the shelves and had a tendency to freeze things that shouldn't have been frozen, we decided to invest in a new fridge. Our requirements were that it be large enough to hold even the excess food one makes during holiday seasons, large storage space for fresh vegetables (due to those on diets in my house), that the shelves be easily adjustable (preferably half width ones), and that it have a freezer on the bottom. The two models I looked at were by LG and Amana. In the end, we decided to get the LG and here's why... Read review
