Free: 5x wooden garden chairs (Chessington - KT9) Five wooden garden chairs, free to a good home. Ready to use this summer. We were told they were teak when we bought them and they carry an FSC Mixed Sources mark, but I can’t independently verify the timber. They’re at least 6 years old and have lived outside, so the wood is weathered with a rustic, lived-in look. There are cracks, splits and surface wear across the set. Recently jet washed and given a quick coat of teak oil, so they’re clean and ready to go. All five are stable and comfortable. A heavier adult can sit on them without issue, though some are a little wobbly. They no longer fold — we put a bolt through the leg sections on each one for extra stability. Because they don’t fold, they’ll take up more space to transport than you might expect, so worth bringing a decent size vehicle or it could take two trips.

Free: Blue velvet chair (Chessington - KT9) Gifted Giving away our blue velvet chair. Our cats have scratched it a fair bit in places so it’s not perfect. It’s solid to sit on and very comfy. So with a little TLC and some cleaning it could look great 🙂. We have cleaned it a few times as our cats did pee on it twice but it should be pretty ok - any questions please ask

Free: LayZSpa Hawaii hot tub (Chessington - KT9) Gifted Giving away our Lay-Z-Spa Hawaii hot tub (around 3 years old). It’s not in great condition, it does work - ish but might be better suited to a spares or repair project. The pump powers on, connects to Wi-Fi, and the heating element does work, so it can heat the water. However, the pump runs very rough and noisy and sometimes throws error codes. I replaced the impeller last year but didn’t do the best job, so that’s likely where the issue is. The liner has a number of slow leaks and has been patched in places, so it’s not perfect - it did stay mostly inflated all winter. The inflatable lid and outer cover are included and usable, but both are showing their age, and the grey thermal cover isn’t fully watertight anymore but still improves general use. Overall, it’s well used but could be useful for someone either as parts or for someone happy to tinker. It was inflated all winter and I’ve emptied it in popped it back into its boxes Free to collect — you’ll need a car that’s a decent as it’s bulky - though it is deflated. First come, first served.

Free: Blue velvet chair (Chessington - KT9) Expired Giving away our blue velvet chair. Our cats have scratched it a fair bit in places and I think one of them might’ve peed on it a few times (though we’ve usually cleaned it with a pet cleaning spray so should be fine). It’s solid to sit on and very comfy. So with a little TLC and some cleaning it could look great 🙂.

Free: Sony DBR-900 Hi-Fi surround amp (Chessington - KT9) Gifted Hey everyone! I’ve got a Sony STR-DB900 FM Stereo / FM-AM Receiver up for grabs. If you like solid vintage audio gear, this thing can still put out a really nice sound. Here’s the low-down. This is a pretty full-featured AV receiver from Sony, with built-in decoders for lots of surround/sound-field modes (Dolby Digital, DTS, Pro Logic, etc.). Good for music, movies, gaming — especially with multiple speakers. Here are some of the things it has, so you can tell if it fits your setup: • Power output: ~120 W per channel (8 Ω, stereo).  • Supports 6.1 channel speaker set up (Front L+R, Center, Surround L+R, Surround-Back, plus Subwoofer).  • Analog audio & video inputs: • Several analog AV inputs (DVD, VCR, TV/Satellite etc.)  • Monitor / video out (yellow composite video).  • Digital inputs and outputs: • Coaxial digital input  • Optical digital input(s)  • Digital audio optical output.  • Subwoofer pre-out: yes, so you can add a powered sub to thicken the low end.  • Antennas for AM & FM/RDS built in, plus tuner capabilities.  Condition & What To Know • It’s a bit slow to start up. • Has visible signs of use and age. • It worked the last time it was turned on (~2 years ago), but I haven’t tested it since. Oh and the remote is a bit bashed up so not 100% if it still works but it should Free to anyone who wants it! Great for someone who enjoys restoring gear, or just needs a good receiver without paying new-price.

Free: Green velvet Dunelm chair (Chessington - KT9) Gifted I’m giving away our Dunelm velvet armchair. It’s a very comfy chair but one of our cats has a fascination with it so it’s got to go. It does have some scratch damage but it’s most obvious on the right arm of the chair. Our cat also peed on it twice - we cleaned it with enzymatic cleaner and it doesn’t smell to my mind but I just wanted to be totally upfront to anyone buying it. It is a lovely chair and I will miss it but I don’t want our cat to build up a bad habit so getting rid of it. It’s been in storage for 2 months. FYI it’s quite large and I found it difficult to fit in an Audi A4 estate so you might struggle to get it in a smaller car. It should fit in a decent size SUV. Also I cannot help you load the chair - you might want to bring some helps.

Free: Oliver Bonas two seater sofa (Chessington - KT9) Gifted Giving away our bright yellow Oliver Bonas two seater sofa - RRP £550 Unfortunately our cat has peed on this 4 times and we can get her to stop so the sofa has got to go. It could do with a deep clean - I’ve spot cleaned it twice but it does still smell a little, the feather filled cushions being especially nice problematic.. it’s not terrible but not great either. Perfect for someone willing to put some time in to give it a clean and should be very enjoyable. The cats have had their way scratching it in places too - please see photos for detail

Free: Pizza oven - needs some TLC (Chessington - KT9) Gifted Giving away our old pizza oven. Bought used two years ago for £150 it has served us well but we’ve moved on to something else now so no longer needed. It needs a good clean and has rust on the side panels which are fairly thin. The pizza stone inside is cracked but we have used it despite this for a few months last year to no ill effect. It’s a decent pizza oven that you can make decent pizza with.
