Dehumidifier (Skerton LA1)
We got this from another Freegler last year to deal with a flood in our cellar. Regifting it now for someone else to use. It's quite noisy and doesn't stop automatically when full, but it does the job. Quite heavy to lift but we can help you load it into a car. Collect from Skerton

Qualcast corded strimmer (Skerton LA1)
Gifted
Only used a few times, has been in our cellar for a while now. I've now got a cordless one which will suit me better. Haven't tried it on grass but plugged it in and switched it on and it seems OK. Haven't got the instructions but they are probably online somewhere. I'm quite strong for my size (5 foot) but found this quite heavy in use, if you have arthritis or don't have strong grip this may not be right for you. Collect from Skerton.

Purple bean bag that we don't have room for any more. Although label says machine washable, in reality its sponge clean only as the inner liner that holds the beads is stitched to the outer cover. So you can't just pull the bag of beads out and wash the cover.

Dehumidifier (Skerton LA1)
Gifted
Silvercrest (Lidl own brand) dehumidifier, large size, a few years old now. Works fine but is quite expensive to run 24/7 which we need in our house, so we've replaced it with a more energy efficient model. We found the electricity consumption per hour was about the same as a tumble drier. It's quite heavy, about 12.5kg, but it does have wheels. Collect from Skerton.

Stove-effect electric heater (Skerton LA1)
Gifted
Electric heater we aren't using any more. Has three settings: fan only, low heat or high heat. Has a light up coal effect which needs a new bulb to make it work, but it looks quite pretty without. Otherwise it's in working order. Collect from Skerton. Cat not included!

Gifted
Lightweight shelf unit for shoe storage or other lightweight items. 158cm/62" high, 59cm/23" wide, 28cm/11" deep.
