Argos KK05

Advantages: Reliable and easily maintained. Great value for money.
Disadvantages: Noisy. Docking the kettle onto the base can be problematic.

...difference between the two kettles was the colour. I chose the bottle green rather than the white, as it would go better with the décor in my kitchen. Over a year ago we paid just £5.75. The kettle (Model No: KK-05) came with a 12-month manufacturer's guarantee, so what did we have to lose? FEATURES: · * 1.7 litre capacity · * Dry boil protection · * Auto switch off · * Water level indicator · * Pilot light · * 230V - 50 Hz 2200W The plastic-bodied jug kettle was exactly how it had appeared in the catalogue, with clear level- indicator windows either side depicting the minimum fill level (0.5L), and Max fill level (1.7L).

Advantages: Cheap but good value for money
Disadvantages: Can't think of one

...Having just broken my Prima glass kettle (which I loved) which is a completely different story, my hunt was on for a new kettle.

Advantages: Nice Jacket Potatoes With Melted Cheese:P
Disadvantages: None

...I as faced with the daunting task of buying a microwave. All of the choices out there, all fo the brand names and everything else just confused me. So I picked up the good old argos book and had a browse for microwaves. I managed to find this microwave that argos was having a sale on and marked it 'best buy' and I managed to get this for £119.99 The microwave itself has some very usefull buttons such as TURBO REHEAT, that delivers 1000watts of power to reheat something. Also, you get the lovely auto cook buttons, that automatically cook jacket potatoes, fish, chicken etc. Also a nice reheat button, for reheating chinese, indian meals, (curry.) What more could you want from a Microwave?... Read review
