I'm not sure Katj. It has a 2 year warranty.

I haven't as yet. I seem to have bought so many cookbooks lately that I hesitated. I'll be interested to see what you think of it.

Like you Cookie I think I will wait.  I still haven't had time to really have a good look at the last lot I brought!

Oops I bought it too. I'm same as you CP and desperately need to cull some cookbooks.

I have a great deal of trouble culling my cook books. I try not to buy more but somehow they creep in. Serious problem.

Instead of culling I've stopped buying.  I'm like you Chookie, it's very hard to cull.

Not buying more is a great way to cut down on things coming into the house. There is always the one in one out rule.
I haven't rid myself of a cookbook when the kids gave me the festive flavours book. Will have a look through the cookbooks tomorrow and probably try and cull at least 3.  :D

I had a cull 11 years ago and still miss a couple of the books I got rid of. I do have some that I could cull though.

This week I bought Something for Everyone and Cooking for baby and toddler and the convenient vego and Christmix 1&2.  Starting to feel I have a problem! If nothing else I am running out of space.  Maybe I need a Hally bookshelf.

Ditto to both of the above. I have described and sketched the Hally bookshelf but DH is more into metal than wood.

I have tried to cut down on cookbook buying (both actual and ebooks) and haven't done too badly, but I recently won the auction for the "I love chocolate" book on ebay which should arrive in a few days.
I'd never think to eat a block of chocolate for instance but I don't mind when it's added to things.  The reviews of the book on here made me want to get it, so I'm looking forward to it arriving.

When I see some of the great UK cookbooks that we can't get here, I really wish they would release them as an ebook too.  Would make it so good for us,  to have access to them with no postage costs (or waiting for them to arrive).
Hopefully one day it might happen.  :-\
