I got an IKEA one, quite reasonable and is decent

I had a pull out tap installed and removed it within 6 months. I hated that the hose moved around in the cupboard under the sink. Do they all do that or did I just have a cheap tap/install?

Mine does that. It doesn't bother me.

I used the packaging from my aforementioned IKEA tap to make a little cylinder where the hose slides up and down, preventing jamming and noise.

What are the benefits of homemade yoghurt? Far less sugar? No preservatives? Control over viscosity?

Good excuses to buy a Thermomix AND an Airfryer

Juicers.

Having received my refund from MOD Australia for their failed cold-press juicer, I went back to the drawing board looking at the whole range of cold-press & macerating types.

Came back to cold press and one from Kuvings, slightly cheaper than the MOD.

It promises minimal pulp, and on this it delivered. Have to chop things up a bit more (eg carrots into 3 pieces rather than fed in whole) but its relatively quiet, quick and efficient. My typical mix is a carrot or 2, a tomato, an apple, a lemon or lime (home grown), piece of ginger, sometimes celery and other stuff. This produces a nice big glass of juice for brekky.

It reduces pulp in the juice by having a fine steel-mesh internal strainer, which the MOD lacked. However there is still a big mess over the parts to clean - but fewer than the MOD and they mainly rinse off.

We’ve moved on to Eccovacs quite a while ago. Had a number of Roomba vacs and separate mop but they just never kept up with the technology IMHO. Eccovacs units vacuum, mop, lift pads, self empty and self clean then dry at heat.

Roboroc are still around. Our mighty Roboroc S7 (known as Fred) is still chugging away.

We just bought a The Roborock Saros 10R and Mrs Scash loves it. On sale at the normal places for around ~ $1,700.

All very good these days. Roborock Saros 10R looks to be excellent.
