What completely piss poor products have you had the misfortune to buy, and why? I've just bunged a flymo hover mower in the tip. It was shite:

1. Couldn't collect any of the clippings (they all just stuck to the underneath)
2. Couldn't mow next to brick walls or fences (cos of the hover bit)
3. Blades kept flying off
4. Finally sheared through itself over the bank holiday.

Total rubbish. Bought a Bosch and a subscription to Which.

And on that front, Which - FFS, it takes them so long to subject a toaster to their thousand bloody tests that by the time it's been reviewed on their website you can't buy it any more.
