Kinky Massage Balls are Dryer Balls.
Advantages: Less drying time, less creases, less lint.
Disadvantages: Noisy, husband complains even more.
...My drying balls were a result of wanting to treat myself. I had some Tesco club card vouchers which is the perfect excuse for a reason to buy something for yourself that you don`t really need. Whilst perusing the store, some strange looking balls caught my eye. I was wondering whether they were a pair of kinky massage balls. On closer inspection, I discovered that they were tumble dryer balls!
I hadn`t seen anything like the balls before so I was compelled to have a look. There were 2 balls, one in pale blue and one in lilac, covered in little nobbly bits. They were partially covered with cardboard packaging. I needed to find out more, I really wanted to feel the entire ball in my hand. I was puzzled with regards to their use in drying clothes so I read the cardboard packaging.
Claims.

My New Tumble Dryer Balls
Advantages: Cut down on drying time
Disadvantages: None
...A couple of weeks ago I decided to treat myself to a couple of Dryer Balls. I've seen them many times before and have read about them, but always wondered whether or not they would work. I was in my local Poundland and I saw them for...would you believe!....£1, well as I like a bargain, I couldn't resist.
A Bit About Dryer Balls
Dryer balls are made from PVC plastic, which is able to withstand extremely hot temperatures and will not melt. You get 2 balls in the packet. They are approximately 3" in diameter and are covered in little nodules. You simply put the balls into the dryer with the clothes and start the drying cycle. The balls are believed to reduce static build up during the drying process, help to reduce the drying time, make your clothes softer and also reduce the amount of ironing needed. Dryer balls claim to replace...

Our pink dryer
Advantages: It dries hair
Disadvantages: Not the fastest but fast enough
...Hairdryer
With Little Miss liking all things pink (and lilac) it was only a matter of time before a pink hairdryer entered the house.
PRODUCT AND PACKAGING
Thankfully I get into the pink (naturally!) box easily and even better is the fact that once inside, I didn't have to do anything- hairdryer was all set up and just required plugging in.
The hairdryer itself is a kind of pearlescent pink colour which is attractive in that it's not overly gharish. The removable styling nozzle, which can be used to direct the air onto a small area of hair is black as is the trim around the back of the hair dryer and down the sides. The air inlet at the back and also (as I expected) the cord is black as are the switches.
On the front of the handle there are 2 switches. The cool button can be pressed down for cooler air, and this is popular...

An excellent hair dryer
Advantages: 3 dfferent heat settings, dries quickly, looks good.
Disadvantages: quite expensive and heavy
...This hair dryer was bought for me as a present from my husband and I can't fault it at all! he chose well!
It is by the brand Umberto Giannini which are well known for their hair care products and hair dressing salons.
It comes with three different heat settings, a hair brush and a diffuser to add extra voume to your hair.
The package it comes in is attractive enough with a big cardboard box full of black swirls and a lrge window in the front of it so you can see the hairdryer. The hair dryer is white with a blue nozzle anda bright pink diffuser so against the white and black box it looks really stylish and stands out.
It is quite a large dryer, definitely not one you would take away with you and it is a little heavy and cumbersome.
It definitely dries my hair quickly, I have thick hair and it takes a while tyo dry my...

Vidal Sassoon Dryer Blows Frizz Away....
Advantages: Easy to use
Disadvantages: No diffuser
...This hairdryer from Vidal Sassoonn is a life-saver.
The last time i used it was yesterday evening when i was going to a friend's party. I had just come out of the shower and was panicking because i only had about an hour to get ready. normally, my hair is a nightmare as it gets frizzy and uncontrollable when it has been washed.
I used this hairdryer and my hair was dry and sleek in about 5-10 minutes. Unlike other hairdryers, it does not frizz my hair claiming to give it "volume". This made straightening it a breeze.
The dryer has a number of different temperature settings also with a cool shot. This means that it is easy for anyone to sue as it adjusts to your hair type.
I would definitely recommend this to people who have to get ready in a rush and teen girls as it is a real life-saver because it makes drying the hair so easy...

''Phillips Tresemme Salon Proceramic Hairdryer''
that was a few weeks ago and so far has proved to be a worthwhile buy.
What prompted me to buy this one (apart from the style and functions) was it was on sale down from £30.00 to £22.99 and iincluded a separate Ceramic straightening brush.
The hairdryer is all black apart from the slider switches, the air inlet grille and the hanging loop which are light grey ( see pics )

Creda T622CW Condenser Dryer.
Advantages: No hose to vent, warms up house!
Disadvantages: Noise, running cost.
...We were bought this tumble dryer as a moving in gift for our new house, finally having space to put a tumble dryer.
We went for the condenser type because there is no need for a vent to the out side, which up here in the north west of Scotland is the last thing you want during a winter gale, believe me!
OPERATION..
The controls for the dryer are easy to understand and operate, the timer is settable up to 120 mins and is clearly marked. The heat setting is a 'push in/out' type with two options, low or high. There is a light that comes on when you need to empty the water bottle, but more about that latter on. The instruction book is fairly good, but i didnt pay to much attention to it.
INSTALLATION..
The dryer is quite heavy and i would advise you to sweet talk who ever delivers it to your home into getting it as close to...

Nicky Clarke Supersilent Dryer and styling set
Advantages: Super silent but effective
Disadvantages: none so far
...Two weeks prior to Xmas this large square shaped box had sat under the tree with my name on it. No amount of shaking or turning upside down gave me a clue as to what it could be and I was even more intrigued when I opened it on Xmas morning to find this large vanity case type box it was the Nicky Clarke Supersilent dryer and styling set.
The contents of the box are:
A super silent dryer 1600 watts, which has an on/off switch with 3 heat/speed settings, a cool shot button which is ideal for stopping frizz. A unique two way handle for your personal comfort. A removable rear air inlet grill, this has an easy clean internal filter, ideal if like me your hair dryer normally goes on fire because theres so much dust etc in the air filter!! Theres a hanging loop in case you wish to hang it up why I don't know when its got such a nice...

Washing Blues ( NOT )
Advantages: Cheap and good looking
Disadvantages: NONE so far
...The very smart looking white unit, which the very kind Argos man had just delivered, was something my wife had been waiting on for ages. What with car MOT and repairs and god knows what else the funds just simply were not available for a new washing machine, and other priorities were dealt with first. So when the funding became available you can imagine how relieved my wife was to finally have a washing machine again. The old one god bless it's little old motor had served us very well and my wife had pondered seriously with the idea of getting one of the same manufacturer's newer model.
However it was an article in a magazine that was highlighting up and coming electronics company Haier that swayed both her and I towards one of their models. Haier are a Chinese company and I suppose the best comparison would be saying they...

Review of Haier HNS1260TVE

You spin me right round baby, right round
Advantages: The types of washing cycles you can do
Disadvantages: If you make an error your going to pay for it in the long run sadly
...This review is for the HAIER HW-C1470TVEME-U washing machine.
Setup
----------
I have to admit the setup is very easy to do but you can have issues. You unpack the washing machine from the fantastic pack and you just place it where you like.
The only odd part to setup is that sometimes you do need to open up the door and make the drum inside rotate a few times in order to begin your first wash. This is because it needs to know it is in use before hand, so this is the one thing you might have to do to begin setup.
Design
-----------
This washing machine is a really nice design. You have the door which has the glass there and the glass appears to be this light blue. When you look at this from a distance it does appear to be an ocean blue colour and yet when you go up close this is not the case at all.
Just above the door you...
