Here is a short list of things that you may or may not have realised that you can use your microwave oven for, some bizzarre and some very practical. If you try these please be very careful as they may cause fires and or other damage to your microwave ovens.

1. You can sterilize garden soil in your microwave ovens. This can be used then for planting seedlings. This though is not a practical way of producing a growing medium for your plant seedlings, as you can only really do about half a pound at a time and there is no real guarantee that it will work. It is recommended that the soil is blasted on full power for 90 seconds or until it is steaming.

2. To sterilize kitchen cloths, rinse them with clean water, and put them into your microwave oven damp, then blast them for thirty second on full power. There are a couple of draw backs to this though. If the cloths are dry they will catch fire very quickly and the damp cloths generate a a large amount of steam and get very hot, so make sure they are left for a couple of minutes with the microwave off before removing them from the microwave.

3. Get more from lemons by heating them on full power for twenty seconds. This appears to produce more juice. I do not know why and there is probably some very good scientific reason, but it does work!

4. Ladies you can life out of your old dried up mascara by putting it into your microwave oven and cooking it on full power for 15 to 20 seconds. Put a cup of water in the microwave with it for safety reasons as the mascara may explode.

5. Dry herbs in your microwave. Wash the herbs first and then spread them over a piece of kitchen roll and put another piece of kitchen roll over the top. Cook them on full power for about forty seconds and they will be dried and ready to use however you want. This is a quick and easy way to preserve some of the herbs from your garden.

Replacing your appliances will cost you money right away as you have to pay for the appliances. But might it save you money in the long run? Many companies have focused on creating much more efficient appliances today, in the light of the environmental crisis.

If you have an old appliance that you replace with a new appliance, it will most likely be more electricity-efficient. With more efficiency, you can save money on your electricity bill every month once you have replaced the appliance. Maybe even a lot more than you think.

My girlfriend's parents had an old refrigerator. They were getting tired of it and wanted a new one. The new one cost $800, but they bought it on credit and made a deal where they paid $70 a month for one year. The next time they received their electricity bill, it had decreased from $44 to $9 or a monthly saving of $35. They didn't understand this, as it was a huge decrease. The next month, it was also at this low cost again. So, they investigated what had happened and discovered it was because the old refrigerator had used so much electricity. The result was that they in effect only paid $35 a month for the new refrigerator and after a year they would get a net saving of $35 every month for as long as the new refrigerator could be used. They got a great deal, even though that was not their focus.

This story was about a refrigerator. But you can replace the refrigerator of this story with many other appliances in your everyday life. Maybe it is a new TV or a new gas heater. You can also apply this with your car. With higher fuel prices, fuel efficiency suddenly becomes more important. If you really get into it, it might also be worth a consideration to invest in solar cells to produce your electricity. It might be a big investment, but consider whether it will pay off for you.

Before you run out and buy a new refrigerator, remember to make a calculation of the benefits first. Estimate how much electricity you will save and what it will cost you to replace the appliance. If you can break even in three to five years, it might be a good deal, even if you have to buy it on credit.

Don't forget that by reducing your electricity bill you not only help yourself. You also help the environment and thereby society, so it is a win-win situation.

There is a new kitchen appliance that makes baking, grilling and other cooking chores faster and easier than ever before. Called an Infrawave oven, it uses infrared light technology to make cooking and baking up to 50% faster than with a conventional oven, a toaster oven or even a microwave.

The oven uses a higher frequency infrared lightwave to cook food and this results in brown and crispy foods where a microwave sometimes yields bland versions of the same dish. Meats are cooked on the inside and the outside at the same time. Chef-quality is how the food has been described by folks tasting it. The Infraware oven is more like a small convection oven than it is to a microwave.

The oven actually sends out two different types of infrared waves. The first are shorter, high frequency waves that cooks the surface of the food to make the food crispy. The other type are long, lower frequency waves that cook the inner sections of the food. What results are professional, chef-quality prepared fish, poultry and meats cooked in almost half the time a conventional oven would take. Your family will be enjoying faster and healthier meals in less time than ever before.

There's no preheating or thawing needed either. The Infrawave oven takes care of that as well. What a time-saving convenience that is. In fact, many frozen foods are completely cooked in under 20 minutes.

Not much larger than a toaster oven, the unit is small and compact with a footprint of only 15 inches wide by 14 inches deep.

It has a capacity of 0.7 cubic feet with inside dimensions of 10-5/16 inches x 11 inches x 6 inches tall. The oven is also equipped with a digital touch pad, a digital display and a slide out crumb tray. The especially unique aspects of the Infrawave are its ability to "know" how to cook your food based on the settings you choose. The unit is equipped with a touchpad that you use to program the oven for whatever type of food you are preparing.

You simply input the type of food that you're going to cook (steak, chicken, lasagna, potatoes, etc.) and the Infrawave oven automatically sets the cooking temperature and time. You can even set the oven to alert you at different cooking times, depending on the style of cooking you want.

For example, you can choose 'regular' and 'crispy' and then when the cooking time is done for the regular cycle, the oven will alert you and then when the cooking time is done for the crispy cycle it will alert you once again. There are a number of different preset options available as well so you won't be stuck looking for the perfect choice.

You don't need special cooking dishware either; any cookware that is suitable for a conventional oven is acceptable to use including ovenproof dishes without lids or metal or ceramic cookware. You need to make certain to keep the cookware and the food you're cooking at least one inch away from the upper heating elements.

All in all, any modern well-equipped kitchen will benefit from the addition of this appliance with its ability to produce chef-quality foods in less time than ever.

Refrigeration needs of people vary from home-to-home and business-to-business. Not everyone requires a freezing section in refrigerators so, why go for a unit that leaves you with idle freezer space? Instead, go for the Freezerless Refrigerators and utilize the refrigerator space to the fullest.

The Freezerless Refrigerator units are available in a different styles, namely, Freezerless Chest Refrigerators, Freezerless Compact Refrigerators, Freezerless Full Size Refrigerators and Freezerless Drawer Refrigerators.

The Freezerless Chest Refrigerators are chest shaped, frost free units. They are generally equipped with an electronic thermostat control with fan forced cooling. These units are available as small, 5.5 cu.ft. units to large, 23.5 cu. ft. units. They have a top lid for accessing its contents and so, they loose less cold air when opened thus, providing effective cooling.

The Freezerless Compact Refrigerators are compact, front door units that are small enough to be placed on table tops. These units are as small as 1.7 cu. ft. capacity. The larger ones like those of 5.5 cu. ft. capacity are good for under counter use.

Ranging from 9.6 cu.ft. capacity to those more than 10 cu. ft., these are suitable for both household and high storage commercial use.

We did some research on the prices of drinking water filters for you. At first glance, you might think that the really high priced units are the best quality or that a really low priced drinking water filter is the best value. We thought that too, until we got a little education.

Reverse osmosis is the most expensive choice in drinking water filters for home use. They use them in large industries and public treatment facilities. In certain situations, they are the right choice for the home, but most of us can do without them.

There best application is desalination, but without additional steps, the water is still not safe to drink.

The more reasonably priced drinking water filter systems reach a top price of around $420.00. They are typically some form of carbon filtration, combined with a micron filter and some sort of stage to balance mineral content and pH levels.

Practically the same drinking water filters can be purchased for less than $150. The difference is mark-up. Buying directly from the factory that manufactures the drinking water filter will save you hundreds of dollars.

For less than $150 and a dime a day, you can get one of the top ten rated drinking water filters, in the world. These units are designed to sit on your counter, next to your sink. They are more effective and less likely to leak than the units that screw directly onto the faucet.

There is typically an option to switch from filtered to unfiltered, in case you want to extend the filter life by doing dishes or washing vegetables in unfiltered water. For cooking though, you will enjoy better tasting healthier foods, if you turn the drinking water filter to the "on" position.

You may be tempted by the really low priced drinking water filters that retail around $40. We thought they might be a good reasonably priced alternative for a family on a budget. We found that there were several problems.

Most are really chlorine filters, not purifiers. Many harmful contaminants, such as THMs and VOCs, which have been linked to cancer, will not be blocked by the cheap models. In some, the toxic metal lead is not removed. Lead contamination is a big problem in many cities. Not because the treatment facility isn't doing their job, but because the pipes that run into the house are old.

Bacterial cysts are another type of contaminant that a cheaper drinking water filter cannot remove. They can cause parasitic infections in the gastrointestinal tract and have been know to cause death in children, the elderly and people with a compromised immune system.

If that's not enough, cheap drinking water filters cost more to use. On average more than 20 cents per day, as opposed to the 10 cents per day that is available. You see, they get you by charging a lower price initially, but then charging more for replacement filtration cartridges. Or, the cartridge has a very short lifespan. Either way, you end up spending more in the long run.
