8 most useless things that were fashionable to buy in the recent past

When we buy a promotional thigh massager that comes third on our checkout and gives us a 10% discount on the second item, we are like as a rule, we firmly believe that we will start using it regularly at home and completely free of charge get rid of cellulite seriously and for a long time, or even forever and ever. But let's face it: will it be so or is it a momentary illusion? The material will tell about 8 things that have been fashionable to shiver in recent years, but their practicality turned out to be very controversial, and we didn’t want to use them at all.

1. open hangers

Open hangers help out a lot when you need to urgently and cheaply organize storage in some kind of temporary home, for example, in a country house, hostel or rented apartment. But, if you think that an open hanger will turn your bedroom or hallway into a fashionable picture, “visually lighten the interior” and solve the problem with disorder, then we hasten to upset you. To make the hanger look beautiful, you will have to hang things by color and in a certain order. If this is not done, such an open hanger will very quickly bring a sense of disorder and visual noise to your room. Another argument against an open hanger: clothes that will hang outside the closet for a long time will eventually become covered with dust. On staged photos in online stores, such hangers look incredibly stylish and European, but in real life, clothes on them quickly become dusty and bring a sense of disorder to the interior.

2. Pile of trays and containers from FixPrice

Trays and containers really help with organizing storage. But their acquisition for each category of things and for all households can cost a pretty penny. Decision? Shoe boxes! In some amazing way, they are perfect for storing clothes, wires, tools, children's toys, and more. Even cleaning guru Marie Kondo is a fan of shoeboxes and recommends using them extensively in everyday life. And small plastic containers are best for taking snacks with you and storing some cut or opened food in the refrigerator, and you don’t need to have several dozen of them at all.

3.Rotating spice rack

At first glance it seems that this rotating organizer is the dream of any housewife. The thing seems very comfortable, relevant, stylish when you look at it on the store shelf. In theory, this contraption should justify its cost with convenience and functionality, but in practice it does not work out that way. The round shape of such a stand does not use space very rationally, the jars often fall, the spinner is unstable and slips. Much more practical is the usual plastic coaster for 2-3 shelves, which has long been preferred by the majority.

4. Tureen

When buying a tureen, we think about how wonderful it will look on the table on Sunday or during festive feasts. In addition, as the sellers assure, the soup in it will remain hot for a long time. However, in practice, this cute and bulky item very quickly goes into the category of "it's a pity to throw it away, and it's no longer needed." Modern pans look aesthetically pleasing, most of them are designed for both cooking and subsequent storage in the refrigerator, and modern refrigerators, in turn, can safely take into their frosty embrace a pot with soup cooled to 60-70 degrees without prejudice to the refrigerator itself, as well as soup. Therefore, tureens are simply not needed.

5. Bread maker and other highly specialized kitchen gadgets

Homemade bread is great, but you can also bake it in a conventional oven. There is an opinion that it even tastes better. What about a hand mixer? There is no need to buy it separately, because an ordinary blender with an additional whisk attachment will be able to beat anything (except for tough dough). Well, we won’t even say anything about a deep fryer, an electric waffle iron, a noodle cutter and a double boiler with a bunch of containers.

6. pitchers

It makes sense in jugs if it is customary in the house to often make your own soft drinks from fruits and berries or something like jelly. However, beautiful, as in advertising, pouring ordinary packaged juice from a jug is a rather strange choice that forces you to dirty the dishes without much sense and then wash them. Your obedient servant uses a drooping jug only for diluting furacillin solution during acute respiratory infections.

Information about the effectiveness of irrigators for home use is very contradictory. Experts are unanimous: this is an extremely useful addition to oral care for people with special needs - owners of implants, prostheses, braces or those who have diseases, for example, gums In other cases, this is more of a pleasant addition than a truly necessary device in everyday life. And it costs a lot of money!

8. Mini Humidifiers

The mini humidifier also disappoints quite quickly. In a large room, even next to the workplace, such a thing is not particularly effective, does not make you feel a significant difference, and soon goes to gather dust on a shelf as unnecessary. Users note that humidifiers with a volume of 2 liters or less do not raise the percentage of humidity in the room at all, according to a home thermometer with a hygrometer. It is rather a fashionable decoration with an assortment of highlights. But then the nightlight from FixPrice will cost less!
