Appliances

Over the years we’ve been reviewing many items that have been a “Model 2” – an improved product. Like last week’s new Megaboom. We love to see how a good product can be made even better.

When we did a hands-on take of the original Bissell Bolt ION XRT Stick Vac we gave it a big Thumbs Up but also noticed a few points where it could be improved.

Bissell recently released their new iteration of the Bolt and made it into an even more compelling tool for your broom cabinet.

Here is the Bissell MultiReach Bolt 36V and our findings.

I must say I felt conflicted when Miele announced their first bagless vacuum cleaner earlier this year.

After all, Miele build their reputation as one of the world’s top vacuum cleaner manufacturers for the past century, spruiking the benefits, indeed the necessity, of making a bag an integral part of their cleaning process.

And now they announce a bagless vacuum? Have Miele created the best of the bagless bunch?
It certainly is a futuristic-looking machine....

Follow me as I dragged the Blizzard CX1 through the office and our house.

Sometimes a product can be so familiar and yet so unknown...

Take the Kenwood for instance. We’ve had one or more in our families for over 50 years.
It was the most versatile and useful kitchen appliance around.

And then a couple of years ago they came out with the Kenwood Cooking Chef.
Whoa! This is NOT your mother’s Kenwood!

Let me tell you about this awesome machine...

Here at DigitalReviews we love a good cup of coffee and for many years we have been spoiled when a couple of family members had their own café.

So could a fully automatic coffee machine ever come close to producing what we as baristas loved to brew?
Call us sceptical but willing to be wrong on this score.

So when De’Longhi suggested we have a look at the Primadonna Elite, which is their top-of-the-line fully automatic coffee machine, we couldn’t say no.
And after several weeks of testing and tasting we are pleased to admit that sometimes it’s good to be proven wrong!

Let me show you why.

In my college years I did a stint of janitorial duties that included quite a bit of floor mopping so the “joys” of using the mop and bucket have scarred me for life....
Many different solutions have been created over the years to get rid of dirty floors.

One specialist purveyor of floor care products, BISSELL, has just brought out the CrossWave, which probably is one of the best arguments to ditch the mop and bucket altogether. And perhaps the vacuum cleaner too!

Just follow me in my dirty tracks....
