Burger press gets regular use (despite my initial horror on being given it that it was a waste of money and something I could do as well with my hands - I can't)
Thermal teapot - it works! I hate cold tea.
Fizz keeper was good but I managed to break it. So now I am back to buying ickle tins of tonic for my G&Ts, not very MSE but without my FK I can't keep it fizzy long enough, I am not that much of a lush it seems.
I got a great corkscrew from there years ago but managed to break it (see a theme here?) and the replacement was a different design but same brand, it was useless and broke almost immediately so I got my money back so I guess that was my worst. IT was the soft grips one. I have gone back to using the old one as it is still just about usable. I love Lakeland though

I have to agree, the spudnik potato masher is RUBBISH!! however i have my eye on the potato ricer, but it's £10, is it worth it?

I'll try the lettuce knife for my non-stick. Thanks for the tip.

Worst for me was the non-powder washballs (tried to be green). Absolute waste of time and money. Useless.

Best buy is their Lavender delicates wash - can be used by hand or machine. Smells divine and gets my frillies clean every time. Not cheap, but much nicer then other delicates washes.

I have this too.... It makes lovely, voluptuous, velvety mash BUT it is surprisingly large and bulky, taking a lot of space.

Since purchasing it, I have seen others that are cheaper and smaller, I may suggest that you shop around..:cool:

The drawer separator which helps you keep your socks in pairs! Broke almost instantly, and inexplicably addressed to my mother instead of me...

The lavender candles are great for the summer. They keep the flies away from your food or inside your house if you put it by a door.

Don't have a worst yet!

not so much a gadget but... one Christmas I was after a baking try big enough for the turkey, I just grabbed a large mermaid roasting tray without even looking at the price, came up at around £30:eek: being too embarrassed to say no I bought it and cursed myself all the way home!, but this has been worth every penny I make gravy in it every week on the gas hob and is so strong I imagine it'll last forever without buckling
