Wahl James Martin SLOW Cooker

Advantages: good size, easy to use, boils fast
Disadvantages: no froth!

...I've no idea who the guy is on the front of the picture of the box and had no idea that it was endorsed by this james man because ours came without a box. And the best part was it only cost a fiver - you've really got to love garage sales. My friend was only over here for a one year study abroad course and laid evrything out from her house on a table and sold everything off really cheap. I snatched this up as you always need coffee especially when an esay/ project/ disseratation is due and a few allnighters are needed to get stuff done. Being a fellow caffiene abuser Sarah had used this machine quite alot in the 1 yearperiod since purchasing it, i've had it for about 6 months now and have had fair use out of it. It's a silver standing coffee maker which is a stunning silver colour with switches on the front. the slide in and out... Read review

Advantages: Saving made on haircuts
Disadvantages: you need to get a reliable person to help if you cant master yourself!!

Cut down those barber bills and get trimming. depending on your... Read review

Advantages: Ideal for cooking stews, casseroles, joints of meat
Disadvantages: Need to brown things before slow cooking

...Slow cookers are a great way of cooking food if you are going to be away from home for a long period in the day. Even though I work from home I still use ours on at least a weekly basis as I find that the meat when cooked in it is much more tender and tastier. Although I had used slow cookers in the past, my old model was slowly gathering dust on top of the cupboard, and last Christmas I received a Morphy Richards Slow Cooker as a present from my mother in law, but it retails at £34.95 in Argos and can be purchased online or in the shop. The slow cooker is very large, with a 6.5 litre capacity and is silver in colour and oval in shape.
