Free Delonghi cooker

Dominic from Palmerston North Central

Hi, I have had this fan assisted cooker for over 8 years. I have in the last two years replaced two of the three oven elements. It was all working really well, then the oven stopped working, even the oven on red light does not come on (makes me think it may be a simple repair).

Hi, I have had this fan assisted cooker for over 8 years. I have in the last two years replaced two of the three oven elements. It was all working really well, then the oven stopped working, even the oven on red light does not come on (makes me think it may be a simple repair).

However the four ceramic type rings work perfectly. The rings work so well I carried on using it and just roasted on my BBQ, but someone has gifted me a nearly new cooker so anyone can have this free. It may be a really simple repair as I have mentioned. Working second hand cookers are around $500 (I looked on Trademe)!

Probably worth some scrap as it’s stainless steel but I would rather someone gets it working again. Pick up in Roslyn area. Please e mail me if you would like it at timmonbird@xtra.co.nz

PS it’s a hard wired cooker so no plug. The oven light inside the oven has never worked.

Free porta cot

Dominic from Palmerston North Central

Hi, free porta cot……does not have the cover which also works as the base, so there is just the fabric base, not a hard one. Probably best for pet rescue type of thing or those who want to contain pups or kittens. Clean and folds away to a very small footprint. Roslyn area. Please e mail me at … View moreHi, free porta cot……does not have the cover which also works as the base, so there is just the fabric base, not a hard one.

Poll: When's too early for DIY?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

We can all generally agree that noise from loud music or parties in the early hours of Sunday is a no-no. But when is it okay to fire up the power tools, leaf blower or lawn mower on a Sunday morning?

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the We Say You Say… View more

We're not saying 'Ka kite' to 'Kia ora' but let's challenge ourselves a little more for Te Wiki o te Reo Māori...

Held from the 11th-17th September, Māori Language week gives us a chance to celebrate our beautiful national language. Maybe you'll be celebrating by watching the Toku Reo videos and using Te Aka (Maōri Dictionary) to improve your knowledge, or maybe you've found a buddy for the week that will only kōrero in te reo with you. Ka pai!

If you're a fan of chocolate, we have five blocks of Whittakers Miraka Kirīmi tiakarete to give away. Whether long or short, simply share your show-off phrase below to be in to win. (Winners randomly drawn and notified on Mon, 18th Sept).

Can you solve The Hard Word?

The Team from Stuff

Put down the coffee, feed your brain every weekday and hopefully have a bit of fun in the process.

Put down the coffee, feed your brain every weekday and hopefully have a bit of fun in the process.

There’s a new word puzzle that’s a little “anagram-istic”, a tad “Boggle-ing” and a bit harder than both. It’s aptly named, The Hard Word.

You get one scramble of letters, one cryptic clue and one tense minute to unscramble the letters and guess the answer.

Proudly brought to you by Neighbourly, The Hard Word can be found 9am weekdays on Stuff. Give it a go today - if you dare…

Push through hot water cylinder

Philip from Aokautere - Fitzherbert

15 litre push through cylinder. Installed 1987 then disconnected around 1997 when hot water was changed to gas. Sat in a corner cupboard as it could not be removed until kitchen was replaced. Element and thermostat seem to be ok. Scrap value around $15, so will look at any offers above that.
