Merrick and Rosso have opened up the so-far largely untapped goldmine of appliance-related comedy. Their “Almost Transformers” sketches for the Comedy Channel comes as something of a relief for us here at Appliances Online, who have been crying out for more of this unique strand of humour.

The sketch features numerous “Whitegoods in Disguise”, displaying their transformative powers amidst the general public.

We note the line-up includes a fairly stylish-looking Breville toaster. The costume is a superb representation of the kind of toaster this brand delivers, capturing the stylish stainless steel lines, the robust durability and its ability to conceal a hiding person.


Richie is a Sydney based writer with sophistication, flair and hair. Aside from blogging and writing for Appliances Online and Big Brown Box, he is also a new playwright who had his first play, ‘The Local’ performed last year at the Sydney Fringe Festival. He is also the wicketkeeper for the Gladstone Hotel Cricket Club and his favourite appliance is any 3D Blu-ray Home Theatre System that can be delivered to his house free-of-charge in the near future. He was the lead singer of Van Halen in 2002. Google+
