I would have a look through the household section of the forum. There are loads of posts there saying what people have brought with them and why. There is also a lot of advice about what you can and can't bring with you.

TV doesn't work for recieving their terrestrial stuff broadcasts over there. I have family who moved a few years ago and said electricals were really reasonable for price. Best bet is to check out some of the shopping websites for aus for prices. Sorry can't remember any of the company names though.

I would say if you have any decent large white goods bring them. I brought no kitchen ware at all and kettles etc were really cheap. All your electrical goods excluding some tv's are on the same voltage so as Ali said you just chop the plug off and put a new one on, easy peezy.
