If you are like me and seem to go through an endless stream of kitchen gadgets that just don't work, and end up throwing them back in the drawer and then get annoyed all over again when you pull them out forgetting that THEY DON'T WORK, then this could be the website for you. The famous UK store Lakelands has a great online store full of tin opener and garlic crushers that works. Really simple to use website with lots of stock from this company that has been on the go in the UK since 1963. The online ordering service is slick and they have a great customer service reputation. However, delivery can be a bit slow.
