@DogFather, I didn’t buy the vacuum and the Steam Mop. My parents bought them for me, in the futile belief that if I had them, I’d use them. I sometimes wonder if I killed the vacuum cleaner on purpose, because of my deep-seated aversion to housework…
My dad is the one who usually buys gadgets. He recently fell for the hype and bought a Slap Chop. He was the first one to say it’s a piece of crap. By the way, if you want some real entertainment, just Google “Vince Offer” (the Sham Wow & Slap Chop guy). He’s a real piece of work, and his full name is Vince Shlomo Offer. (Really.)
The last gadget I bought was a kitchen mandolin, last year. The first time I used it, I sliced a huge chunk out of my thumb. Took me over half an hour to stop the blood that was gushing out. Fortunately, I’d recently had a tetanus booster (don’t ask), and I didn’t need stitches. I haven’t used the mandolin since.
