A microwave, because when you first move in, you don't normally have the time to cook big meals, or have the ingredients available to you. A microwave will allow them to have meals quickly, and can be used for re-warming food in the future as well.

My friend got me a book with loads of advice in it such as how to wire a plug, decorating tips, tiling. It was called 'The House Book' or something like that. I was so exciting about moving in that this was great as it showed me how to make my property better.

Depends on how much you want to spend. If you're spending a lot then a nice gas grill is great. Something cheaper might be nice welcome mats for the doors. Or perhaps a subscription to one of the home & garden magazines to give them tips on decorating.
