Have never had a problem with any mail in rebates, and always got the cheque from the companies. Have had a Kitchenaid one, four Samsung ones and am currently waiting for a Roger's one.

Any one else not impressed with the lasting quality of electrical goods here, just bought a new hand food mixer (3rd in 4 years), I have looked longingly at Kitchenaid mixers, they are expensive no matter what rebates are on offer so do they last?

Good luck with the rebate

My mother got one as a wedding gift and it lasted for about 30 years. She finally bought a new one last year, the old one did still work though.

I also got one when I got married and I've been using it for almost 10 years now. So for us I'd have to say they last pretty well!

I have a kitchenaid mixer that I bought 6 years ago - afaik they do last well.

I did have to replace the worm gear a few months ago - There is a plastic gear inside that is supposed to protect the gear mechanism - that one breaks if something goes wrong with the gearing. It costs a couple of $ to buy and takes about 15 mins to replace. There is a pretty good youtube video that shows you how to do it.

Mr C is a lucky man. I have to buy my wife diamonds, if I bought her a kitchen appliance she would use it to murder me.

It was my choice of gift - cooking up a storm these days thanks to the Food Network I also got a selection of UK DVDs, snowshoes and poles, and JEWELLERY :-)
