Gesiet commented on Hot Water Heater Power Usage
We have a 400L 3.6kw tank and use about 11kw a day in winter (Brisbane). This is mainly for 3 x showers (<5 mins), and a bit in the kitchen…
Gesiet commented on Worth Engaging a Mortgage Broker in 2024? (QLD)
Absolutely worth checking. Often they can find a great deal, but occasionally they can’t beat the bank. Ours (also in Qld) is very honest…
Gesiet commented on Pesto Sauce - What Is a Good One?
Roza’s Pesto is by far the best option if you don’t want to make it yourself or buy it fresh from an Italian deli. Closest to real…
Gesiet commented on Changing Career from Accountant to Psychologist
I’m currently doing a Grad Dip Psych online. It’s FULL on, and I’m only doing 1-2 subjects a trimester. Far more intensive than the…
Gesiet commented on Aramex Lost My Delivery
As someone who had 3 parcels outstanding with Aramex, one marked as lost, I was able to pick up all three at their depot in Brisbane…
You can’t take a Dyson on the plane. They won’t allow the lithium battery in carry on or check in. I’ve investigated before.
Sure are! And apart from the functions, they are the exact same ovens as Electrolux & AEG. We have an AEG and the electrician was like…
Agree 100%. We have a Dyson and 2 x Vornados. The Dyson is so loud and barely moves air. The Vornado DC is so much better.
Gesiet commented on ALDI Has Discontinued Their Logix Platinum Dishwashing Tablets 40pk (19c Per Tablet) - What Is Alternative Now?
Costco Kirkland are about the same price and work brilliantly. I used to buy the top Finish Platinum Pro before all the ridiculous price…
In the past 3 years, we’ve had both Bosch Serie 6 (German made with cutlery drawer), then moved house and had a cheap 3 yo Miele, which…
Gesiet commented on Ceiling fan recommendations
Another vote for DC fans, waaay more efficient. The Eglo brand are decent quality for their price.
Don’t. Our RACQ guy told us NEVER to buy an MG. They are the car he’s most often called out for!
We have SS and it is hands down the BEST benchtop material I’ve ever had (compared to Cesarstone/Essastone, timber, granite, laminex).…
We installed a solarstar ventilator on the back half of our hotbox Queenslander and it made a HUGE difference. Highly recommend!
Gesiet commented on Financially Better off OzBargainers, since The Inflation Rises, What Is One Product or Service That You Refuse to Spend on?
Finish Dishwashing Tablets. Used to buy the top level (Platinum Pro I think). Now I buy Costco’s which at 17c a tab are just as good…
This one: https://www.appliancesonline.com.au/product/bosch-serie-6-under-bench-dishwasher-smu6hcs01a
Agree! We put in a Bosch Serie 6 at our last house. Fantastic! Our new house had a cheap Miele which wasn’t great. We’ve since replaced…
I found this review really helpful when we bought a machine. We went with the Breville Bambino Plus + a Porlux hand grinder.…
You’re so welcome, really glad it helped. Zinta and her team did a great job for my partner and his sister in resolving their claim.
My partner had a similar issue, but in the reverse side. Sister had coerced mum into leaving nothing to the two other siblings (left out…
The CR travel chinos (not their standard ones) are brilliant!
Agree. Our Woll is 18mo and stuffed. Just bought a Swiss Diamond XD induction to replace it so we’ll see if that’s any better…
Gesiet commented on [NSW] Gorilla Carts 226L Dump Kart - Galvanized Steel Bed $100 @ Bunnings, Wallsend
Yep just tried Bunnings Brendale and Carseldine. They spoke to a manager whose manager said don’t match (coming from head office).…
Gesiet replied to mirz on Hozelock Auto Reel 25m $119.98 in-Store / $129.99 Delivered @ Costco (Membership Required)
Delrico - they are far superior to any other brand we’ve had from Bunnings/Costco.
Gesiet replied to Increase1 on Hozelock Auto Reel 25m $119.98 in-Store / $129.99 Delivered @ Costco (Membership Required)
Check out Delrico, the Rolls Royce of hose reels! We have one, not cheap but brilliant! Our other two are this one above (okay but nowhere…
Gesiet commented on Ceramic Vs Induction Cooktop
We replaced gas with induction and it’s amazing! So much faster and more precise. Plus a dream to clean. Did have to get new frypans. And…
I’d also mention emergency services access to both properties is important. Any cars parked in the driveway area will hinder access. This…
Have you looked into Hidden Fence? A lot of our neighbours have success with this system (we’re on acreage)
Gesiet commented on Bathroom Leak in New Build - What to Do?
Yup. Definitely the waterproofing. If you want to, get a plumber to run a waterproofing test for a few $ hundred and then you can use that…
Gesiet commented on Losing Sense of Smell Because of Flu
Yep, I had a reduction in sense of smell / taste with Covid, but a complete loss with a cold that progressed to sinusitis.
