    5 Stars I do want one of those! They must know everything! 20/07/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Some great items, always good for a laugh

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Somethings are really pricey, you should shop around if possible

    This is another one of those online shops that sell the most weird and wonderful things, and as you might have guessed from the name of the shop, it tends to make you want to buy everything! I came across this site when looking for a Birthday present for my friend - she's the biggest kid and I was spoilt for choice. In the end I firmly settled on a pair of inflatable, remoted controlled battling robots. Now that's something I couldn't have found down my local Tescos. What They Sell The site describes it's items as "Stuff you don't need...but really, really want" and this pretty much sums it up ... more

    5 Stars Stuff you really want 12/10/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Fast delivery, great choice of products

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None

    I was having a conversation with my boyfriend when we got together not that long ago and he mentioned that he loves remote controlled gadgets (or any gadgets at all come to think of it) so i thought that as he's a big kid at heart i'd have a browse and see if i could find something suitable for a Christmas present for him (i love to be organised so start my shopping early) Having decided i didn't want to get him a car as i think that's too common i came across a picooZ micro remote controlled helicopter. It's described as the smallest and lightest remote controlled helicopter in the world. So ... more

    3 Stars IWOOT - great gifts but will I get what I want? 09/01/2012

    Advantages Advantages website, products, Paypal, design

    Disadvantages Disadvantages poor service at times with delivery, product tracking, searches need refining

    IWOOT – great gifts but will I get what I want? I Want One of Those (IWOOT) is a website offering inventive, weird and wonderful gifts for any occasion. I first found the site when looking for Christmas gifts for my partner and having lacked ideas, IWOOT gave me any number of solutions. The site is described as “stuff you want…. But really don’t need” which pretty much says it all. IWOOT offers something different to smellies, jewellery, clothes and whatever else you might buy a loved one. My first purchase was s version of The Wizard of Oz where I was able to change all the character names to ... more

    4 Stars WILD AND WEIRD 10/09/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Wild range of products for the person who has everything, great amusing site, easy to browse.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The gold mouse costs £375 and I want one of those!!

    I love shopping on the net especially where you can find really unusual presents for people, or maybe just something wild and weird for yourself. One of my favourite sites is IWOOT.com, it stands for "I Want One Of Those", and its the perfect name for a site which is stocked with everything weird and wonderful. Some items are advertised in a very tongue in cheek manner, heaven knows what they would do if you order one of them!! Anyway I'll come back to those later. HOMEPAGE -------- The site itself is in a very funky navy background with orange and white lettering. On the homepage there's lots ... more

    5 Stars I want that one.... Review with images 20/01/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Candy G-String? Genius!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Expensive, some items cost much less in the shops

    I am one of those people who loves stupid little gadgety things. You know, things that serve absolutely no purpose, other than to look good or do something that has no effect other than make you smile? That kinda thing. I was trying to find silly gadgety things online, when I came across this website, IWOOT.com (or IWantOneOfThose.com.... but that takes a bit of typing). I was instantly drawn to its attractive purple and light orange page design, and the fantastic slogan "Stuff you don't need... but you really really want". This sums up the site in one short, simple sentance. The first thing I ... more

    5 Stars But I WEEEEEELY WEEEEELY want one of those 30/12/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great for gift ideas

    Disadvantages Disadvantages You may end up buying a lot of rubbish u don't really need

    I stumbled across this website whilst looking for a birthday present for a male friend and have been hooked on it ever since. To be brutally honest it is filled with a lot of crappy toys that you don't really need but really really want. So far, i have purchased some Cubeworld, tamagotchi esque things and some wine goblets that have a base that lights up. I also had some Oggz bought for me from there for my birthday after lots of hinting to my friends. The service from IWOOT was good. I received my items in perfect condition, very well packaged, just 2 days after I ordered them. I currently ... more

    4 Stars I want one of those! 25/01/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages really random gift ideas!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages expensive

    I really do enjoy looking on this website and always seem to purchase something rather unusual and unnecessary! I have bought the 'nothing' that I will give to the next person that says they want nothing for their birthday, something! I have recently bought the Diamond keying for my friend for Christmas as she is always looking in jeweler shop windows at HUGE diamond rings and saying, 'That one will do, That is the one' so I thought I would get her one myself to make her laugh, which it did! I find the website versatile and you will always find something for that difficult to buy for someone ... more

    5 Stars I want to go back and buy more... 09/02/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great delivery, reasonable prices, good customer service.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages You don't appear to be able to track your purchases.

    The tagline for iwoot reads "things you don't really need, but really really want" in many ways this sums up the whole iwoot concept. I stumbled upon this website when i was searching for quirky gift ideas that would be something a bit different. Iwoot did not disappoint with it's eclectic range of bizarre and interesting gift ideas. Iwoot supplies everything from watches to designer furniture and a whole lot in between. THe sections of the website are GAdgets and gizmos (watches, speakers etc.), Toys and games, Lifestyle and home (clocks etc.) kitsch and daft, great outdoors(survival tools ... more
