We've had this microwave for over a year now. We clean it regularly and wipe out excess moisture because we've had an issue with rusting microwaves in the past.It's held up well as a mid-value microwave, easy to use and nothing complex, plus it looks really nice although a little on the plastic-y side.Recently, after a lot of use since 2018, it's rusting round the edges on the inside. This hasn't effected our use of it and is only a small patch but we will be looking to replace it soon as I imagine it's going to get worse now the rusting has started.My recommendation is to keep it wiped down and clean and you'll get a good few years out of it. If you're looking for further longevity then perhaps look elsewhere.
JenniEasy to use and clean, only problem is size of bread to use in toaster has to be small square slices find I have to flip slice over to toast finish the job. Otherwise good product.
VivienneArrived in the appropriate box with instructions even though it wasn’t sold as new. Cannot fault it. It was in brand new condition,
pam deanDO NOT BUY THIS ITEM the switch is faulty and could prove deadly on both kettles the old went wrong after 1 year the new one as soon as we tried it
godfrey willsHappy customer
satav-23Arrived promptly looked at other reviews on dearer kettles and to be honest why pay more for same sort of problems, lightweight and a nice red, for the price what's to complain about so far so good, it boils quick and wipes over nicely, value for money no complaints so far ????sue
MR S DINHAMGood sturdy kettle, I liked the fact it has a plastic removable filter instead of the normal Netting type that tend to wear away or split over time..
Julie May.Seems decent. Slightly disappointed that it toasts unevenly with frozen bread (with frozen button turned on) - one side hardly cooked other side browned. It comes with a 3 year warranty that has to be registered on-line or by phone within 28 days of purchase (28 days was not obvious) I tried after 30 days and they wouldn't accept me.
ChoccoTheMooseThis toaster only toasts the smallest bread, putting a normal slices of bread in the slots the tops come out untoasted at the top. The bottom little square is about the size of a certain small diet loaf (can't tell you brands don't think allowed) anything bigger and the edges get missed. I thought it would be good as it is a Tower brand but total waste of time and money.
Elizabeth590I bought this to replace a Bosch kettle of similar design that had begun to leak around the viewing window.It has the same capacity, 1.7L. The volume marks on the side are reasonably accurate, with the 1L mark bein. 0.975L. In use, one (actual) litre boiled in 1'55", with a further 12" before the auto switch-off kicked in. So it's fast. It's rated at 3kW, and the actual draw measured by an electricity monitor was 2.7kW.Flow when pouring is slightly slower than with my old Bosch, but that's down to the slightly different designs of particle filter in the spout. Rather than the fine nylon mesh of the Bosch, it's a perforated plastic triangle, which does slow the flow a little, but it doesn't cause any problems.There is just one window on the one side to see inside the kettle, and as a left-hander I found the two-window design of the Bosch handy, but it's something you get used to. And the Bosch is broken, and this isn't!I like it. It does what I want, there's no taste on the water from the material, and it's modestly priced.I'll revisit this review in a year's time, to see if it's wearing well.Recommended.

A good little toaster that looks nice and is easy to clean. I did find that a thick piece of bread didn't go all the way down when toasting so had to turn it upside down and toast again to get the whole slice done but as I don't use the toaster that often, it doesn't bother me. Great for lightly toasting waffles and scotch pancakes though.
Amazon CustomerGreat value
pstesu-xucxzsSo easy to use
SusieBought to replace a more expensive Murphy Richard's kettle that died in a year. This is a nice size, and boils quickly. Friends have commented on how nice it looks in my kitchen too
Rebekah AllenThis is a very good kettle and I love the colour. Easy to use, although it is not always evident how much water is in it if you look at the indicator as it is a bit obscured. It is sometimes not altogether as sturdy as I would like but I like this manufacturer and am happy with the kettle. It boils quickly and is not noisy.
SusanDual wave technology is pretty impressive tbh quite a small unit but packs a punch. Twist and go controls nice and easy to operate. Bright light inside the oven you can clearly observe the food and the finish when off sits very stylish retro looking on the worktop very happy
mickJust wanted a cheap toaster which this is! Nice and stylish and toasts bread.......But we use the standard toastie bread which you can get in all supermarkets for around 55p and putting the bread in it’s really tight and the bread slightly overhangs the top, so it needs turning half way through for an even toast. I just feel it’s to small for an average toaster.
Mummy to charlieAmazing value for money, bigger than expected, high quality microwave.
Diane EdwardsThe microwave works fine, and looks ok. But does look more yellow than I expected so does not match my cream appliances like I hoped it would (not the manufacturer's fault). Knobs are a bit on the cheap side. But, like I said, it's fine. Take note that the vents are at the top so you can't store items on top of your microwave.
