Woolworth Elevation

Advantages: Price and reliability.
Disadvantages: None

...The Elevation Coffee machine from Woolworths, is one of the best presents I have ever had. I was so impressed with it, that after having it for three months, I bought another in case the first one broke down. Over three years later I am still using the original one. It is used every day, producing fantastic coffee, espresso, capuccino and latte. My Wife and I used to have regular fund raising coffee mornings and that machine would be going non stop for 3 or more hours, no problems. It needs descaling every two to three months, depending on usage. The milk frothing ability deteriorates as the scale builds up inside. Descaling with Citric Acid crystals is the method I use. Care has to be taken with cleaning the drip tray daily and the frother head but otherwise very low maintenance. Drawbacks, the only slight niggle I have... Read review

Advantages: Versatile and easy to carry
Disadvantages: Can't take the cover off to wash it.

...My family bought me two Cushties when I was pregnant. I found them very useful and versatile. I could put one under my bump in bed, or between my knees to make lying on my side more comfortable, put them under my feet to elevate them when my feet were swollen, and even in the arch of my back at work when sitting in office chairs. Then once the baby was born, they were great for breast feeding on, then to put behind my baby when he was learning to sit up. They're now in his nursery where he uses them to lounge around on to read his books! They're very light and easy to carry around with you and come a great range of colours Excellent product!...

Advantages: Steam or dry..
Disadvantages: none

...I had to go out and get a new iron last week as my old one had had its last days, and well gave up on me, so here I go of shopping again for a new one. So I thought best place here is Woolworth's, so of I went well they have a wide variety of irons and electrical equipment in there, and so I set about looking for one, I wanted a cheapish one, as been near Christmas I thought any saving is good. And I saw one for just £8.99, I thought well an iron is an iron at the end of the day; they all more or less do the same job, its just Woolworth?s own steam/dry iron. And come back to my pile high of ironing, and set about trying it out. It has all the usual functions i.e. sole plate, spray nozzle, steam control knob, temperature dial, and water tank window, filling mouth, spray knob, pilot light. When filling your iron with water, you must... Read review
