I love my Shredder

Recently we were sent a fab shredder from Fellows to review. The model we were sent was the Fellows Powershred DS1 which retail at around £90.00

I have to admit I thought that £9 for a shredder was a LOT of money, however, I think I may have been converted.

Firstly this shredder is super fast, doesn't get hot and stop like my old one and makes me feel safe and secure. It also does all the following:

Shreds up to x11 A4 sheets at a time into 3.9x35 mm confetti-like pieces (Higher security - level 3)
SafeSense Technology shuts off shredder when hands are too close to the machine
18 litre bin holds up to 200 sheets
Shreds paper, staples and credit cards
2-year full warranty/ 5-year cutter warranty

The shredder sits in our study under my desk and is used pretty much on a daily basis and once the bin is full we bag up the screddings.

We have also been supplying our friends that have rabbits and guinea pigs with the shredded paper as bedding for them, so saving them money too.

Bissell Vac and Steam Machine Review and Giveaway

I have hard floors downstairs which I love. They are much more practical than carpet with 2 mucky boys and a dog. Over the past 8 years I have tried all sorts of ways to keep them clean and I think I have finally found the product that does that for me. It is the Bissell Vac and Steam Machine . This amazing suel action machine vacuums and steam cleans either independently or at the same time. It means that I have done away with my vacuum and steam cleaner downstairs (which I gave to my brother in law). What I like: You can either vacuum or steam clean or do both It is lightweight and easy to manoeuvre The handle is adjustable great for a home with people of different heights and for getting the kids involved. You need no chemicals The pads are washable and reusable It comes with a two year guarantee It warms up fast (within 30 seconds) so no long wait to start cleaning It costs under £100 It is space saving. No need for a separate vacuum,...

Dumping the tumble dryer and Ecoforce giveaway

We have a tumble dryer, but it broke before christmas and we couldn't afford to get it repaired, so I have been managing with an old fashioned wooden clothes rail and hanging bedding over the doors to dry, This last would of weeks however, I have been hanging the washing outside and it has been drying much quicker and with less creases, so I am going to take the plunge and instead of getting the dryer replaced I am going to give it away. Ecoforce heard me on twitter bemoaning the fact that I was chasing laundry round the garden as my pegs were not working and very kindly sent me some of their Ecoforce pegs to try and they have been fab. So in conjunction with Ecoforce I have a year's supply of green cleaning and washing up wonder products worth £50 comprising the following: EcoForce Peg Basket x 1 EcoForce Clothes Line x1 EcoForce Pegs x 2 packs Several of each of: EcoForce sponges, scourer...
