The icecream attachment was "free" as a special offer and normally retails for $200. I think it would be a good idea to try it before I give away my Cuisanart to one of the kids. Specially as it was a Christmas present last year.  I'm looking forward to trying the pasta attachment cos doing it manually by yourself is hard going. There was also a Bose special which was very tempting. There was nothing else to watch on tv last night as you probably can tell

CP, my DS9 and I watched that last night too for the same reason. Didn't buy one though, but it was a good offer. DS said I should buy one though.

A couple weekends ago my washing machine of 16 years decided to die. I decided that I wasn't going to waste money getting it fixed again so off I went washing machine shopping, come home with a 10kg samsung front loader which come with 2 years worth of washing powder (doubt it will last me 2 years with 7 people in the house)
So far I'm very impressed with the way it washes, I have never seen DHs work clothes so clean and I have never had a front loader before.

I got the high capacity LG front loader 4 years ago and it has been a marvel. It has the "steam-clean" function too, which is great for heavy, thick items that don't always get fully washed in one cycle. (The dog bed and rugs.)

DH surprised me with a family pie maker last friday

I didn't realize how badly my top loader washed until I got the front loader. DHs work clothes have never looked so clean before. And socks are whiter. I'm so glad I went with a front loader, and it uses a lot less washing powder per wash which will save money as well.

I've always been a top loader person for the sheer convenience of being able to add things during the cycle and also not having the hassle of bending /kneeling to load and unload.

I've had our current top loader for about 20 years now and it is just starting to play up on me - had to put a new pump in it last week.  My conscience says I should go for the front loader when this machine gives up on me, but I am very reluctant.

Which one do you use the most Uni?
The pie looks delicious

[fundj&e]

i think i will be using the family one the most, much easier and i know frank will think its more like dinnner rather than a snack

I was the same Cuilidh, but you can get stands for top loaders to bring them up higher (I haven't got one but will get one)
They do take longer to wash and yes you can't add that sock you just found once you started the machine already. I'm still converted
