small appliances and tax relief

[C'on]

Could someone please clarify if you claim full tax relief on small appliances like kettles, toasters, hoovers etc. or do they come under the 12.5% wear and tear? Thanks in advance

You can claim for small kitchen items, bathroom items and household items in full that have little or no re-sale value.

This would include items such as glasses, crockery, pots and pans, kitchen utensils, ironing board, etc.

Kettle and toaster could be considered in this category as they are relatively cheap, not sure about the Hoover - I have mine in the 12.5% wear and tear deduction.

If you have to replace washing machines, hoovers, cookers etc, put them down as repairs. Then use 100% allowance in the same year.
