Other Electronics : What Is The Most Useless Item You Have Ever Bought For Your Home

I am busy donating a few gadgets I never use to freecycle. At the same time, Im trying to resist buying an espresso coffee maker because it will use up counter space in the kitchen, and I may end up not using it. Did you ever buy some gadget and only use it once - or even never ? ~~~ amsterdam ~~~

Best Answer To Other Electronics Question

No, Im not being smug. But Im not the impulsive buying type. If I cant justify it, then I dont buy it. But I still have plenty of stuff that are hardly used, but they are "second homed". I have a coffee maker(not espresso)Which I found brand knew and boxed in a skip. If I had just had the foresight to walk on by!

Just little decorative nick nacks. I used to have way too many of them and they took up so much space. They just sit on the shelf. I dont know what I was thinking, how many nick nacks does one person need, ya know? I had to get rid of over half, now my house doesnt look so cluttered with gadgets,lol.

Answer 4

an elecrtic toothbrush, its too much hassle, i just used the regular one anyway.

Answer 5

An electric juicer, was there ever a piece of equipment so poorly designed, I only used it once and it took ages to clean. Its in the back of the cupboard. I regularly use my stove-top espresso coffee maker though.

Answer 6

We bought a wardrobe. It was made by a company call THUKA (Im not joking) Its label code was something like beslag56, and nothing can fit in it.

Answer 7

curtain rods..... I have solid wood blinds...

Did U say, bought, or brought? If the latter, then it was my ex! He gave the "kiss of death", to everything electrical! .l Funny but true!

Answer 9

George Foreman Grill - sandwich toaster-smoothie maker-ice cream maker - coffee peculating machine..... list is endless... However, the BEST gadget we recently bought and it would actually be fantastic for elderly people too (Cos they wouldnt have to lift a heavy kettle any longer) is a TEFAL quick-cup (Kettle - water boiler) - saves on electric too - you get instant boiling water for your tea and coffee - absolutely FANTASTIC at .m. when you gotta get up for work - dont have to wait for the kettle to boil...

Answer 10

My husband bought a ceiling rose for the living room, around the ceiling light, and Im still waiting for it to be put up, 1 year ago. Apart from that, I bought a Easiyo yoghurt maker, and only used it twice.

Answer 11

"Rampent Rabbit".. Now I dont see her much these days

Answer 12

I would have to say the 2 in 1 VHS and DVD player. I never use the VHS side. I actually never have used the VHS side. I dont even know if it works!

Answer 13

I cant decide - A television, a radio/dvd boomer, a vhs player and an electric toothbrush. The most used are the microwave oven and open-top oven-toaster. The computer and laptop are my livelihood. The vhs, television and radio sat unused, since we can watch or listen to news and downloaded movies and music. The electric toothbrush is not too useable with its bristles to floss between my teeth like a normal toothbrush could.

Answer 14

wheels!

Answer 16

Definitely, the bread making machine. After the novelty wears off, it makes more sense to simply go buy a loaf rather than buying the mix, dragging it out, setting it up and later cleaning it and packing it away. I finally sold it at a garage sale. Some poor soul excitedly snapped it up in the first ten minutes. Im sure by now he also thinks its the worse thing he bought for his home.
