Advantages: Easy to instal, an attractve focul point and suit any style of decor. Disadvantages: Very heavy.
...Having stared at a blank wall for fifteen years I decided a focul point was needed in my large living room. As my home is decorated in quite a contemporary style I opted for a wall mounted electric suite which I purchased on line. The Krypton Suite exceeded my expectations, it was so easy to mount on my wall and not only is it an attractive feature it is extremely functional and it is very user friendly, the remote control is an added bonus. I love the coal effect which looks like a real living flame and with a choice of heat settings my room is cozy and warm within minutes. I am so pleased I chose a fire with a wooden frame it complements my room perfectly and would actually suit most decor and style of furnishings....

Advantages: Quick, clean convenient Disadvantages: Not designed for the Mug
...After being back in the UK for 3 months I decided to ditch the cafetiere and buy a coffee machine. I needed something that was quick, simple to use and didn't waste coffee and this fits the bill perfectly. Initially designed for the Dutch market (Philips and Douwe Egberts both being Dutch) it produces small cups of coffee as that is how they drink it, but their home based coffee is strong and tastiy.
What I do to make a mug of coffee is to just use one pod, press the one cup mode, let it run through, press one cup mode again and when it reaches the optimum level for the mug, depending if you add milk/cream or not, stop the flow of water by pressing the on/off button. It suits my taste, hope it suits yours....

Advantages: no more burn marks on clothes Disadvantages: no automatic switch off
...when my old iron died on me i sent my husband out to buy a new one think that all irons are pretty much the same. i was in for a rather nice suprise with this one no more waiting to see if the light has gone out to make sure its hot enought i just set it to the temerature i want and leave it not only does it change colour when its ready but it beeps quite loudly so i don't have to stand right there, and also means i no longer burn clothes.
I've also found that compared to my old iron this one is heavy and although heavy irons might not suit everyone i prefer this. the ceramic plate means it glides wonderfully with little to no effort which is great because i have karate suits to iron all the time as my husband is an instructor.
The only negative i have found with this iron is it has no automatic switch off like some i've seen around....

This is a beautiful hotel situated right at the end of the main promanade in Funchal. The views across the ocean, and into the city are perfect, with the sun setting over golden cliffs to the west in the evening towards the harbour. The hotel is situated more
