I bought a Karcher T 7 Plus surface cleaner last year and have just started using it again. Unfortunately it seems to be stuck on the corner and edges setting, it doesn't change to a surface cleaner when I push the foot pedal for either hard or soft. Am I going wrong somewhere? Last time I used...

I have an old rectangle small table, aged around 1920, with the chess inset squares. I sent just the top part to have a few repairs done, which were OK, but as well as the repairs the top has been painted over in Shellac which I don't like and I don't think represents that era. I was hoping to...

I have a new LG smart TV 32" which I use with a Humax HDR-1100S freesat recorder bought in 2017. I could not get ITVX with the old 32" TV, nor can I get it with the new TV. I assume the ITVX isn't compatible with the old Humax but have no idea what to buy to get Freesat with a Humax recorder. I...
