Flora Report post Posted March 30, 2006 (edited) How sad am I?? About a year ago I bought one of those expensive touch open bins (from a famous make beginning withB ). Yesterday the touch open mechanism on it broke, and I thought great, going to have to get a new bin and couldn't afford to replace it for the same one (I'm a bit sad I LOVE my bin). Well I rang the manufacturer today and they are sending me a new one! Just like that! No questions asked. No blustering or interogating. Apparently they guarantee their bins for 10 years!! I'm chuffed to bits. Oh god, somebody shoot me I really really really need to get a life Edited March 30, 2006 by Lauren Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nemesis Report post Posted March 30, 2006 I have a 50 litre one too... It's fantastic. My lid broke when the bin was about three years old and I had no proof of purchase. The company sent me a new one no problem. Now I recommend them to everyone - an expensive investment but well worth it. A life? What's one of those Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Suze Report post Posted March 31, 2006 ...........well I keep mine shiny by using one of those special window cloths "damp"........then using a dry t-towel...........smudge free...............I have found making all 5 family members wear cotton gloves helps with finger marks too.

Jill Report post Posted March 31, 2006 Which is sadder, you writing about how much you love your bins, or me for reading it? My thoughts exactly I'm constantly buffing my bin Is that legal I too use baby oil on my shiny surfaces - works a treat and smells nice too. Oh no, I've official joined the "get a life" club Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stephanie Report post Posted April 12, 2006 .. and baby oil is fab in a stainless steel sink as nothing sticks to it, just rub some on after you've done your washing up and leave it. Hmm baby oil and latex gloves - kinky! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
