An onion chopper thing, bought for a scandalous sum at a Pampered chef do, used three times in 2 years, hurts my hands to use it and is a pain in the neck to wash out.

I love my juicer but as it is a pain in the proverbial to clean it does not get used as much as it should.

I can't do thin slices with it - it's ok for carving of thick steak-sized pieces, though  :lol:

Juicer for me too. What a load of rubbish! Which reminds me, I'll take it to the charity shop, it's only been used twice, and perhaps someone else will have more patience that me and be able to make use of it.

Juicer too for me. Nightmare to clean pulp off metal mesh.
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...
