One of many, is a cooker extractor hood, turn it on and its like standing on the runway of Heathrow airport with a airbus 380 taking off, and it wouldn't suck a piece of loo roll up. ( I tried it)
A Belling cooker with solid hob plates. If we needed to go from boil to simmer, we had to have a separate ring ready at the lower temp, as they took an *age* to cool down.

We were too excited at being able to afford a cooker after around 8 months with just a microwave that we gave no thought to the style of hob. It was a gorgeous British Racing Green though...
The one that springs to.mind for me has always been animal insurance. Over the years, I have made a total of three genuine, unforeseen claims... and every time the insurance company has pointed me to a clause in the tiny print, saying something like "we will never pay put under any circumstances". So i have ended up paying the vet's bill alongside the direct debits for the insurance....
Given up since and decided it is just better to save it yourself.

Yes pixie327, banks and insurance companies are nothing but a load of sharks, its almost impossible to read and understand the thousands of words that make up terms and conditions for almost any product or service that one buys. And they know that OH so well.
A packet of Players No. 6.
I have always had insurance for my dogs and never regretted it.
A combined washer dryer. Can't remember the make, but I would never buy a washer dryer again!!
Same as Woofgang. Over the last 40 years I have never regretted insuring my dogs and it has saved me a lot of money.

We use Tesco Pet Insurance, very easy to deal with, never had a problem with them, does exactly what it says on the tin ;o)
Split screen Morris Minor. It failed seven consecutive MOTs after lots of work in between MOTs. Sold it to the last mechanic for the bus fare home.
A passionate condom.
Agree with the washer/dryer. I would never buy one again, although no doubt they have improved since the one I bought 25 odd years ago.
Endless items of clothing and various pairs of shoes.

Pressure washer. Used once and now collecting dust in the shed, its too heavy and fierce for me.

A car at auction, years ago. It lasted less than 24 hours.

Poinsettia lasted a few days

Guinea Pig lasted a few weeks!

Don't ask me why but I did, and I can't even remember the last time I did. I bought a Mcdonals cheese burger, and fries, burger and fries stone cold, is this normal? never again, what a waste of money.
// a hillman avenger in the 70s,//
hillman minx in the sixties ....

I was gonna say so crap that none exist now and there is no second hand market -- - yeah but I have checked - there is
I had my hair cut last year and wish I hadn't, now growing it back but it grows quickly so no odds really, some coloured moldable playsand- literally everywhere and some Elena Iachi trainers that they had in a size which was just a smidgeon tight that I thought would stretch but haven't :(
All of that my own fault.
// A passionate condom.//

sozza that was a joke - some threads deserve a bit of slapping around
bad buy - aaargh ! Rolls Royce thingey seraph
the one where there are no spare parts
didnt work for eight months - no spare parts
I wd never never buy one again - the only asset I have lost five figures over ( yes more than £10 000) - so appalling I forgot I owned one once

so you have to wait for one to DIIIIIEEE!
but hold it - suppose it is part X that fails on every car
just done say it - please dont say it
They were one of the better looking Rollers back in the day though, PP.
That's the one PP ;)
