Russell Hobbs

Went to slice up some turkey ham for grilled sandiches and decided that
I was tired of my old, worn out slicer. It was my grandmom's and
doesn't even have a name brand on it. Shopped around online and was
going to get a Chef's Choice, went to Kitchen Kapers to see it and it
looked well not like the pictures online. They had a Russell Hobbs
slicer that looked like it would cut a roast twice as big and had DH
check online from work while I was in store. He found it on Amazon for
50 less. So when I got home, I went online and found out not only was
it bigger, but it also looks like it is metal vs plastic. Something
about metal makes me feel better. So I ordered it today. Now I can
have my Toasties without going deaf slicing the meat, or gagging from
the motor smell. It should be here by next Thursday. And new pasta
maker comes tomorrow. DH says, hummm, long as you use them and not as
dust gatherers. He is soo good that way. Guess it is because I am NOT
a clothes buyer, he usually has to tell me to get something new. Just
wondering if all you over the other side of the ocean know if Russell
Hobbs is a good brand. Little late to cancel but still would like
opinion if anyone has one.
Thanks,
Adele

Russell Hobbs are a standard household small appliance firm here with a
good reputation. Make kettles, toasters, etc. You should be fine with
them. My last Russell Hobbs kettle was over 20 years old when it was
retired because it got dropped and the handle was bust, rather than it
stopped working.
