I have had nothing but poor experiences with Smeg, it's staggering how so many people still seem to think of them as some sort of status…

It can get more tricky in situations where eg. one of the kids has ‘done more’ like had the parents live with them. A somewhat more…

If you actually have strep throat, antibiotics are probably the better way to go…

They're comfortable but they're not really all that cost effective IMO. I've had to replace the heel rubber every year (like $45) and then…

It’s a waste to get these, the ones with lithium batteries (I think models 1500 and up?) are a little more expensive but an order of…

Yes this is the most common overhead carry-on size pram that most airlines will be fine with. Many of the competitors are small but…

Yeah we have some and are happy with them, tbh their social media/advertising can seem a bit scammy but the product is good

Pic's just isn't the same once they stopped using Australian peanuts - I wondered if it was just my memory of the taste, but later tried…

It’s a mixed bag, sometimes you’ll get someone happy to pay close to the top level condition, sometimes you’ll get someone that…

I have one and like it, it's a thin carpet with a hard backing that actually works quite well for chairs with wheels. Much better than a…

Recently flew with Rex, it was pretty good, reminded me a little of Virgin Blue back in the day (but with a few more inclusions). Overall a…

These are great, we found it didn't get used for too long because the baby outgrew it quickly, but it's well designed, will easily last for…

Yes, see https://www.nytimes.com/2009/08/26/dining/26curi.html - basically you dunk them in hot water (50-60 degrees depending on the…

I think it probably was a stock issue, mine wasn't cancelled and it just arrived today (and my order used the THANKYOU code too)

Not sure if I'll pull the trigger on this one, but it's funny thinking of buying a pricey air purifier and then getting cheap unbranded…

Once babies are out of the newborn stage, it's also fine for them to have cold formula, even straight out of the fridge. If your baby turns…

Years ago I bought a no-name USB charger. One day, there was a loud bang and a big spark, it was burning hot and smoking. It seemed fine…

If it hasn’t arrived yet and it was sold by Amazon rather than a third party seller, you can just refuse the delivery, it’ll get sent…

I like it, bought this like 3 years ago, obviously it’s not heavy duty or anything but it’s $50 for both pieces and for doing light odd…

I kind of get the engineering appeal, but it's really frustrating that the protocols are so vastly decoupled from the form factor. Back in…

I've found it's important to have a strong wifi signal, I had to put an eero unit in the garage, but with a strong signal it's been rock…

I would expect that for $330 the “most advanced indoor pollution monitor” would do it all…

Free shipping on Amazon too https://www.amazon.com.au/AirThings-2980-View-Pollution-Notifications/dp/B09SQ3P6WR But seems pretty expensive…

It is a fairly typical annual pass upsell pricing structure, a pass is like $70 which isn’t much more than a day ticket. TBH it’s…

Gas stoves are not dissimilar to an unflued gas heater, all of the combustion by-products remain in the house unless you increase…

It’s just an endless cycle, we switched to GloBird at the start of the year at 27c/kWh and they jacked it up this July to 40.5c/kWh. Just…

Reviews mix all the flavours together so hard to tell if this one is any good specifically. But for $25, worth a punt. Probably stacks with…
