34cm/13.5" microwave plate (Crookes (S10))
We've had to dispose of a faulty microwave, have a perfectly functional 34cm / 13.5" diameter pyrex/glass microwave turntable plate that goes at the bottom. Seems a shame to chuck it into recycling.

Single futon mattress (Crookes (S10))
Gifted
We're given away a surprisingly comfortable single futon mattress in a navy blue cotton cover. The cover has a couple of small tears at the top, I think where velcro was previously attached. It is 190cm tall and 75cm wide. We've had it folded up for quite a while and used as a spare bed on the floor for guests, for which it is actually very comfortable, but could also be useful for a camper van or caravan.

Tall lamp - partial repair (Crookes (S10))
Gifted
I inherited a tall standing lamp with a main light at the top and a reading light halfway down. The main/top light has stopped working (no, it's not just the bulb!), but the reading light still works fine. I don't know how to fix it but I suspect the switch for the top light (in the centre of the unit, see pictures) needs repair. If you can fix it and would like it, it's yours! (Or if you just want it for the reading light too)
