Today I start thinking about thing I have and not use in my house. I have Jacuzzi bathtub that I used maybe once or twice for last 4 years. It wasn’t my choice; I bought my house with Jacuzzi bathtub. How many items do you have around your house or apartment that you no longer use?

I made a large donation of unused items not long ago. I dont have anything now that isnt being used. I have a limited space and have to make it count. So I have to keep it pretty well exact.The only thing that I still have extra are two computer chairs but when I have company they can be used, so they are on the watch list.I am not sure if I will keep them both.

I have just 4 chairs for my dining room table. When we have a big family meal eytc we borrow some from my wifes restaraunt. I have never thought of donating things that I no longer use such as appliances etc. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I may be driving to some homes/shelters donating a few things.

I have to make large donation soon, but my bathtub will stay at my place, it is too costly to remove it....

Several, some examples: treadmill (more outside time now), humidifier, juicer and blender (no time to make any smoothies or drinks), etc.

I sold some of them off Ebay we still have some in the house, which are mostly hubby's probably over 20 items he told me not to ever sell his things he said he is using them (well not all) hahah I hope he changes his mind because I really don't like clutter even if they are stored properly they are still clutters to me because we don't use them and some we can't fix anyway

Man always store his toys. My father keeps his tools, but he no longer is able to use them.

That's so cool to have a jacuzzi bathtub. I have a normal bathtub only but we seldom use it, too. We prefer to have a shower because it won't waste so much water. I love China

We have a BoFlex exercise machine that I just had to have a few years ago. Trouble is I don't use it because I find it complicated to change the bands and set up for different exercises. So I end up using free weights.

I wouldn't have space for BoFlex at home. I have small yoga mat, more than enough...

We have started to clean out our house because we need some work done, and boy do I have tons of stuff we do not need. I throw out the bad stuff, put some things on Ebay, put other things on freeycle or craigs list for others to pick up. And clothes that are not good enouh to donate go into to those clothing bins by the supermarkets. They grind them up and turn them into a form of cloth.

I know what you are dealing with. I have tons of good items, but I don't have room for. I like to keep all clean and easy to use.

Mixer - My Westbend mixer which seldom gets used.
This is my Westbend mixer I own. It seldom gets used. Maybe 2 or 3 times a year only. I use a hand held mixer most the times. I also have an electric pancake griddle that has not been used in years. It sits on top my fridge out of the way. Then the large pots and roasting pans which get used a couple times yearly is all. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

we have a very big garden in the front. i guess there's no use having such a big garden. its difficult to maintain and plus, months have passed since i've strolled in my garden, because i dont have time. plus even the backyard is so full of trees that we hardly spend time there. i sometimes wonder what is the use of so much land.. a few more houses could've been made instead of all this, but then, it wasn't ever my idea to built such a house!..lol

The one which instantly springs to mind is a pasta maker which I got second hand but in fact had never been used. Well it's still never been used and has sat in the cupboard now for over two years and somehow I doubt I will end up using it and selling it on myself. Plus of course there are all those novelty gadgets you buy that end up using once such as the waffle maker which sits next to the pizza maker having only been used once and the electric cheese grater which at least got used twice before I realised it wast too slow and bunged up all the time.
