Welcome Back to Teasmade UK!

A teasmade is an appliance which is usually kept by the bedside, to wake you up in the morning with a hot cup of tea. It combines the functions of an alarm clock and a tea maker. This website for owners, collectors and enthusiasts, is run by Sheridan Parsons, a historian, with additional content supplied by Doug Fennell, an expert on technical matters and Goblin production.
