About Us
Nobody photographs a sink strainer. But the things that quietly stop your day being annoying are worth getting right, and most of them cost less than a takeaway coffee run.
Every house has a list of small irritations that never quite get fixed. The knife that will not cut a tomato. The cupboard you have to hold a phone torch into. The chopping boards stacked damp against the splashback.
None of them are worth a Saturday. All of them are worth about twenty dollars and five minutes, if you can find the version of the product that actually works.
That last part is the problem. Search any one of these and you get four hundred listings, identical photos, and no way to tell which one falls apart in a month. So we do that sorting and stock the one that holds up.
We buy the obvious contenders, use them at home, and keep the one that is still working after a few months of ordinary use.
Where a cheaper version exists and is genuinely fine, we stock the cheaper version. Where the cheap version is false economy, we say so on the product page rather than letting you find out.
Not a version of the problem. A sharpener that only handles straight blades leaves your bread knife blunt, so we stock the one with a serrated rod on the side.
Plastic that warps near hot water, springs that fatigue, LEDs that dim off. These are the three failures we check for, because they are the three that happen.
If something is imported and inexpensive we say so. We would rather set the expectation than manage the disappointment.
These are small fixes. If the answer costs more than the annoyance is worth, it is not an answer.
Everyday Home Australia ships Australia wide. Orders are handled directly rather than passed to a third party, so an email about a problem reaches someone who can fix it.
Product pages carry real measurements. If you are unsure whether something fits your cupboard, your sink or your drawer, ask before you order.
If you want to know whether a product suits your situation, email us first. We will tell you when the answer is no.
