Are we allowed to bring rice cookers in Oak House? Because I read somewhere that it's not allowed in halls? Does that mean it's allowed in the kitchen, just not in your room?


Any other obscure items we're not allowed? Something about mini fridges?

I knew numerous people with rice cookers, you may want to avoid using in your bedroom because in some blocks the fire alarms can be sensitive but in the kitchen it's fine.

Mini fridges are allowed, but halogen lights are not, along with candles, pets and deep fat fryers (or, indeed, any form of deep fat frying). Theoretically, blu-tack is not allowed but in reality that's not enforced. Smoking is also only allowed outdoors.

i am not off to that university hall of residence but i'd say you are allowed, my friend had a cofffee maker , aand a kettle , the last was in her bedroom as there was a photograph of a kettle in a advertisement in that room. the previous comment about fire alarms i dont think this will occur a the only thing that comes of it is steam/ water vapour so this is not an issue enjoy university

Given the rate at which people (a) set their kitchens on fire with items already available, (b) leave the rings on and (c) cook whilst drunk I can see the logic behind it!

Plus deep fat fryers are immensely dangerous even in homes... in the halls I was living in one person set their kitchen on fire with an oven glove being left on a still hot oven ring. I'd dread to think what some people would be like drunk with a deep fat fryer.

How about this... give us a list of things that you want to take and we'll tell you what's [socially] acceptable/allowed or not :P?
