Registry...which items do you NOT use?

Registry...which items do you NOT use?

We've only used the $200 food processor a couple times. Why does it grind the food into the smallest possible particle? I guess I really just wanted a food chopper...

We also haven't used the slow cooker yet. But, that was only $40 and I've heard they they are really useful.

We haven't used our $125 set of demi cups and saucers, yet. Nor, have we used our espresso machine ($100). But, our families are Italian, so I'm sure that these things will eventually get used a lot.

$70 pitcher that matches my casual china. Will I ever use that?!

$45 chrome drink mixer. We use our blender a lot, but I don't think that we needed BOTH a blender and a drink mixer...

It just nauseates me to think of all of this wasted money $580 plus tax in merchandise that is virtually untouched! (In addition to all of those non-registry items that are still in the boxes they came in)

Good question. We haven't used the extra large mugs that match our casual china, or the espresso cups, or our waffle maker.

I haven't used my China yet. I am slowly starting to use all my kitchen gadgets. I do use my espresso/cappucino maker. I love it.

we haven't used our coffee maker and still have one set of glasses in the box as well as 1 set of nice silverware we got that is now discontinued (Henckels')

I haven't used my stovetop espresso maker yet. I need to buy one of those little frother thingies so I can make capuccino!

A lot of the bigger appliances such as the blender, food processor etc and most of the baking stuff.

Haven't used the Quesadilla Maker... thinking of possibly returning it... haven't used the Food Saver either but we'll definitely keep that. We got a Gizmo can opener and we still use the manual one while the new sits in the box!

We LOVE our Quesadilla maker for quick snacks. It is amazing - i would try it. We also love our kitchen aid mixer. once you use it you will never go back to stirring with a spoon.

We have not used any of our china or crystal because we are waiting for our dining room set to come in. We also never use our food processor because it liquifies stuff.

most of our stuff is at my dads...we have a condo with a relatively small kitchen so a lot of the appliances cannot fit here.
we haven't used the china either

It would actually be easier for me to say what I have used. All of our gifts are 'in storage' at my parents' house until we buy a house. There is NO WAY that the presents would fit in our one bedroom, no storage apartment.

BTW- I've used the ice cream maker. I made homemade ice cream for Thanksgiving.

We haven't used anything yet! We've unloaded everything (except our china) but we haven't put it to use yet. We were very careful to only register for things we thought we'd actually get use out of, so I'm pretty sure we'll use everything at one point or another.

Most of our stuff is in storage - we've used the coffee maker, the Gizmo can opener, we just took the crockpot out of storage yesterday! Pretty much everything else is there!

We haven't used our china. I can count on one hand how many times I've used my iron. Since I do laundry at my parents house, mom will usually iron anything I need along with her stuff.

We also haven't used the Kitchen Aid Mixer. I didn't register for it on purpose since I knew I wouldn't be able to use it until we had a house, but someone bought it for us anyway.

Don't laugh- our meat grinder!! I know, I know I totally should not have registered for one. DH told me I would never use it, but my mother and grandmother always ground their own meat so I felt I needed to have it. And of course everyone was right - I haven't used it. YET!!
