Thread: Daily Poll: Do you own any kitchen appliances that you never use?

Just curious, do any of you have a kitchen appliance that NEVER gets used, yet you hold onto it thinking "I may want to use it someday"....

Yes, I have a bread machine. I love it, but it only gets used once a year or so Also I have two skillets, but I rarely use them. Mainly because they are all scratched up! Why don't I just toss them? They take up so much space!!! I did finally get rid of the George Forman Grill tho

We have had many appliances over the years, but I am not a keeper. If something doesn't get used in 12 months it gets taken to the charity shop...over many years this has included deep fat fryer, a steamer, a doughnut machine, breville, griddle, a dish washer and latest in a long line the microwave

If its in the basement it doesn't get used often. I have a bread machine. Haven't used it since bringing it from Ohio 9 years ago..I think there are two waffle irons down there. Can't remember the last time we had waffle's I've got a really nifty chicken broaster. I think I've used it 3 times in the last 9 years. A couple fondu pots are down there as well. But I do want to do a fondu some day...I really don't know what else might be there.

[MENTION=1]Desert Sky[/MENTION] No we don't use a microwave...the only thing it did get used for was warming milk and I can do that in a saucepan on the stove just as quickly.
We use mostly fresh food, which is easier to do on or in the stove, or the odd tin of soup, beans, spaghetti or peas here and there are also just as easy on the stove

I think the only thing I have actually missed about my microwave is I can nolonger warm up my wheatbear to snuggle with on a winter night...so I had to resort back to my old Hot water bottle instead

More importantly, you dont use a dishwasher?!?!?!? And the microwave is used for SO much stuff, my gosh! Even just reheating leftovers.

I know I have many, I have so many small appliances but I do use most of them at some point so I do like to keep them around. I have an espresso maker that has been used like 5 times, that could go I suppose cuz it is just sitting in my cupboard taking up valuable space. I am sure there are more but that one is the oldest unused item I can think of.

[MENTION=17]cali~jenn[/MENTION] I have a very effective dishwasher so good infact that it can cook and clean up too.
Its name is Christopher but I am not sure there are any left in the shops these days I'm pretty sure I got the last one

Haha you know what is funny, everyone I know who doesnt use their dishwasher says doing dishes is so easy. Then it comes out that their hubby's do the dishes. Good for you! My hubby doesnt even know the dishwasher is there except to take out something after it is cleaned to use.
