I bought a new toilet roll holder that you just slide the empty roll off the end and slip the new one with ease.

No more mucking around with spring-loaded barrels for me. Luxury! :aok:

Wasn't initially purchased recently, but I have a waterproof, Bluetooth speaker which I use in the shower. It's just stopped working but will definitely buy another one.

It lasted about two years and only cost about £8. It charges via USB and pumps out tunes from your phone at a good volume and decent sound quality.

Kärcher window cleaner. Takes about 1 minute to clean a window, brilliant piece of kit.

Wee gadget for poaching and boiling eggs quickly (no, not a pot!).

I'm thinking about buying one of them Russian brides that are always advertised on here. Apparently their cracking to have about the house and do all sorts of stuff. Anyone got one :greengrin.

I bought a highland armchair from Marks and Spencer. It's comfy as and it looks great.

I got the matching footstool too, but that's 2 things. Sorry.

That conversation has been done to death on here. Never been on a dating site in my life and always comes up, that and a Muslim dating site and I ain't Muslim either. Cleared my history on the advice of others and they still popup. Whilst am at it, it's currently advertising season tickets for ibrox and I 100% haven't been anywhere near their sites.

I recently bought a battery operated 'fluff' remover for getting rid of the wee annoying baubly bits from jerseys. Works a treat.

Do you know if they'll pick up your existing wife and dispose of her in an environmentally friendly manner. The environmentally friendly stuff is negotiable :greengrin

We got one of these juicers which works brilliantly. Its one of these ones where the plastic top bit doubles up as a bottle for the juice that you can screw a lid on and take out.

Just one problem...I can't clean the ****ing bottle. It's about ten inches long and I can't get my hand into it far enough to reach the bottom as the top is only about 2 1/2" in diameter. Bloody useless.

A glass drinking bottle. Water tastes so much better out a glass.

Fill it with warm (not boiling) water and stick it back on the juicer for a couple of spins.

I've got a Nicer Dicer I use for chopping stuff up in the kitchen. I'm on my third! First one did last year's but the second was a fake and didn't. So beware!

I just bought my wife a cordless vax vacuum cleaner, I know I'm just a big sook, she loves it. It's much more convenient to use.

You didn't just buy a vacuum cleaner ?

Ha! You mock but here I sit busying myself on dotnet and my darling has just come through to let me know it's the best gadget I've bought to date.

I'd disagree obviously. Although not a household item I recently upgraded from a Samsung Gear 2 neo smart watch to the Samsung Gear 2 Classic. It really is a lovely piece of kit and I can turn it into a Hibs watch when I go to the game.

A black iron frying pan.

Meat cooked in it is on a different level to the non stick that have become the norm. A teflon coated pan should be used for eggs and not much else.

I just bite round the core then discard it. No gadgets necessary. :-)

Got one of those in Aldi for two quid about a year and a half ago, is brilliant!

Picked up an egg boiler/poacher for a tenner as well, gets the eggs baby on every time.

A chordless Dyson vacuum cleaner. The hoovering takes half the time than it did before.

Good stuff but I heard it costs a fortune if you want a newer model and have to get rid of the old one.

The way round that is to keep the old one in the dark and only play with the new one when you're home alone ;-)

Just bought my Mrs a Dyson V6 Total Clean based on your recommendation. I'm expecting a much better quality of suction in future.

Not sure she'll be that happy with it.
