Euromaid is a trusted Australian brand for all your domestic appliance needs, today we provide a review of what not to put into a microwave!
Fast, clean and efficient, microwaves are a fantastic addition to any kitchen. From baking potatoes to melting the cheese on a plate of nachos or defrosting steaks, there are hundreds of uses for this handy machine, but that doesn’t mean you can throw anything in there. In fact, there are some things you should never put in a microwave:
Anything metal
Never put anything metallic in your microwave, whether it’s something large like a knife or tiny like a wire in a twist tie or the foil rim of a plate. Metal heats very quickly in microwaves and this, in combination with electrical arcs that can appear on its surfaces, can create a major fire hazard.
Sealed containers
Never heat a sealed container or bottle, as contents that expand as they are warmed could result in the container shattering or exploding.
Boiling water
While a microwave can be used to heat liquids, you must be very careful not to heat plain water to too a high temperature. This is because there is a chance it will become ‘superheated’ and volatile, exploding when you take it from the microwave and add a foreign object, such as a tea bag or spoon, to it.
Some plastics
These days, most food containers and plastic tubs are microwavable, but be sure to always check them first, or you could end up with a melted mess to tidy up.
Nothing
Never run your microwave with nothing inside it, as this is can reduce the microwave’s life span, as well as potentially start a fire.

Euromaid is a trusted Australian brand for all your domestic appliance needs, today we provide a review of ways to remove grease from your rangehood or cooktop.
We know whether you’re a fan of fried foods or you like oily pastas or stir fries, there’s one thing you’ll find yourself facing when you’re finished cooking – leftover grease on your cooktops and rangehood. Sticky, smelly and unsightly, grease can be a real turn off, but with these tips you can get your cooking surfaces sparkling again in no time.
Cooktops
To remove grease, you need the help of a detergent that can help you cut through it. Use warm water and a rough sponge, but avoid surfaces that are overly abrasive or you may end up marking your cooktops.
First scrub your tops with a damp sponge, working at areas with built up grease and grime, then wipe them clean with a fresh cloth. By giving your cooktops a quick wipe down after cooking, you can go a long way towards preventing a build-up of grease.
Rangehoods
Cleaning your rangehood is slightly trickier, so it’s a task you’re less likely to do frequently. Instead, you should add it to your list of monthly or bi-monthly chores.
You’ll need to find out what model of rangehood you have first of all, and whether it is possible for you to remove some or all of the pieces. For removable bits, you can wash them in either your dishwasher or with warm water and detergent in the sink.
For the other parts, fill a basin with warm soapy water and wash them where they are. Take off the filter cover and clean it inside and out and if the grease is stubborn, try using a specialist spray for grease stains.

Overall:' I have a 7kg front loader of this model its brilliant , I always have preferred the front loaders they wash better and save on money with water usage. I do not get suds left in the bottom like I do with top loaders. Water savings is great on this and it has been reliable for me...

Euromaid is a trusted Australian brand for all your domestic appliance needs. We know that a washing machine is one of those appliances that you’ll be using frequently, especially if you have a demanding lifestyle or large family. So you’ll want to make sure that when you’re buying a new one, it’s the best you can get.
Front loader or top loader - which is better?
Space
When it comes to finding a washing machine that will make best use of your space, a front load machine wins every time. Typically, they can hold as many clothes as most top loaders too.
Efficiency
Front load machines are also more efficient, meaning they use less water and energy to get your clothes clean. Helping you reduce your household bills and do your bit for the environment.
Time
Typically, a wash in a front load machine is longer than in a top loading one. This is because it uses a gentler washing process, which can be better for the wellbeing of your clothes, but does take more time.
Noise
Both top and front loading machines can sometimes be noisy, and the best way to find ones with minimal noise is to check for a decibel rating or calling the manufacturer to ask for one.
There’s nothing more annoying than realising months later that you could have had a better machine for your money, so be sure to know whether you should go for a front or top load machine before you buy.

We at Euromaid Appliances know that It’s a common misconception that old fashioned methods must be better for the environment. For example, many people believe that the best way to save water when it comes to washing your dirty dishes is to do it by hand, but the exact opposite is true. In truth, a dishwasher uses less water than washing dishes by hand.
Thanks to efficient design and modern technology, dishwashers are able to clean the toughest stains from cups, plates and pots using less water than it would take you to do them in the sink. Therefore, if you’re looking for a way to reduce your water consumption, a dishwasher could be the easy answer.
Scientists at the University of Bonn in Germany have proven that using a dishwasher uses a sixth of the water that is generally used when doing the washing up by hand. The study also proved that using a dishwasher uses just a fraction of the washing powder/liquid as is used when washing by hand.
Nevertheless, saving water by using a dishwasher only works if you only use your dishwasher when it is full, and if you do not rinse off all your plates and cups before stacking them in the dishwasher.
Al in all, if you are looking to help cut down on wasting water – which is always an important consideration in Australia – then you should consider using a dish washer.
