Let's All Ride The Dunes!!!!!!

Advantages: Great Fun
Disadvantages: Ensure Safe use

...Hi all after having a day off from Ciao yesterday to get my new tattoo done I am now back to tell you about the Fisher Price All Terrain Switchboard that I bought for my son when he was 6 years old and something he still drags out now at the age of 12 when we go away to the caravan. The basic design mean's that to begin with from an early age it is a scooter with a lockable handle and he loved nothing better than scooting around the camp site instead of walking along with us. He loved it as he wanted a skateboard but being so small he kept falling off this was he had something to hold on to whilst going. He was even able to use it on grass, sand (when it was firm and gravel as this is really all terrain. His favorite trick was to fly down the sand dunes on the beach and then see how close to the waters edge he could get and as he...

Review of Fisher-Price All Terrain Switchboard

Mountain Buggy Terrain Single

Advantages: Truly all terrain, well built, light, comfy
Disadvantages: None

...I wanted a buggy that would stand up to walking regular long walks in the New Forest with my two dogs. This buggy surpassed itself, it is truly all terrain and has even been on mountain walks in Snowdonia! It easily goes over tree roots, gravel, through shallow streams, across heather, through mud, along a shingly beach & more and because it is like a hammock - comfy for my daughter. The tyres are puncture proof and are quick release. I just jet wash it down when I get home and its as good as new. The covers come off & are machine washable too. My daughter has been in this pram since she was a newborn - I used a sheepskin liner and strap covers and she was snug as a bug in a rug - especially in the cosy toes in the winter, she is now 3 and we don't use it as much as she wants to walk everywhere - but it can be used up until 4 years old...

Vax All Terrain carpet cleaners everywhere be afraid

Advantages: Hygienic, easy to use with practise, more convenient than hiring someone
Disadvantages: Bulky, Can be fiddly to clean up after, Expensive

...Vax V-125 All Terrain I have recently purchased this carpet/upholstery/sealed floors washer. Having found other peoples reviews helpful I thought that I could add my experiences of the cleaner to help other potential purchasers make an informed choice. This is a detailed review hence the length but hopefully it will tell you everything you want to know. The Price The cleaner varies in price depending where you buy it from however as a guide it's RRP is £322 however I paid £222 for mine in a sale from Argos hence that swayed my decision to purchase. It would also be worth checking Amazon as I this was the next cheapest retailer I could find. The Packaging The box is very big I have a family size car and found that the box wouldnt fit in with my boot empty it is very large this is without having my seats...

Review of VAX V-125A

All terrain style and comfort!!

Advantages: Great all terrain pushchair
Disadvantages: Poor quality accessories

...useful to help stop the pushchair rolling away from me. I purchased the Jane Powertrack 360 in Titanium colours, I chose this colour because it is mainly grey, which would fit if I had a boy or a girl and because the material seemed to be a bit more easy clean and hardwearing than some of the others. There are also some areas of reflective material on the pushchair which is useful for walking at night. I have been very happy with this pushchair. I walk in the forest everyday and it has stood up to quite a lot of wear. Unfortunately there are some disadvantages - although not all of them are related directly to the pushchair itself: - Even when folded the pushchair takes up quite a bit of space, the wheels are all easily removeable, but you probably wouldn't want to do this every time. I recommend trying it in the boot of your car...

The 'all terrain' CD Player!

Advantages: Amazin Sound, very durable
Disadvantages: slightly heavy.

...falling out every time I move so the Sony was totally out the question for that reason. The earphones with this Nike are totally different. Like no others I have ever seen in my life!!! They are similar to the old-fashioned ones that used to go over your head (oh a cringe at those!!!) only, they go either underneath your chin or from behind your head. Both sound unusual ways to have earphones on, but it is so comfortable you actually forget you have them on! I find under my chin to be the most comfortable and I can remove them quickly if I have to. They are made from very soft plastic and are very bendy and therefore don't snap at all. They don't have the stupid cushions on the ear pieces but again have very soft rubber around them so they almost stick to your ear. But because they are 'looped' and sprung then they stay in place perfectly. (as...

Review of Philips Nike ACT400

Have the time of your life!

Advantages: Fun, easy, thrilling, accessible, forget your worries, feel amazing.
Disadvantages: Can be dangerous and can hurt.

...Mountain boarding began in the UK in around 1992 when snowboarders wanted to access the hills and mountains without having to wait for snow, which is obviously in short supply here. So there came about the mountain board otherwise known as all-terrain board or dirt board, a board which can ride over grass, gravel, rock and concrete, through water and pretty much most terrains you wanna ride it over. Easy to take up, awesome fun, full of possibilites and a sporting scene that's welcoming and helpful, I cannot recommend mountain boarding enough. You can choose to ride with straps over your feet and the option of heel straps or you can be properly stuck to your board with the use of snowboard bindings. Protection is always advised - helmets are an absolute must and wrist, knee and elbow pads are highly recommended too. You can go...

German Rugged All Terrain Phone

Advantages: Rugged, Robust, Built To Last
Disadvantages: Buttons, Lack of Bluetooth, Vibrates as Moo!

...than the k700i for reference. (109x49x19 - 104grams) Screen: Most screen technology today is the real drain on batter life of mobile phones. The M65 is no different. Its a very good quality 65k colour screen at a MASSIVE 132x176 pixels. Its big! Buttons: Once again, the worst part of the phone. Siemens seems to like creating the smallest buttons and placing them near the bottom of the phone, so that you have to hold the phone a tad oddly in order to press them all properly. Plus, the M65 buttons are shaped like pyramids, so that trying to press them off-the-centre means your thumb can slip a little to the adjacent button! SMS: Finally the M65 lives up to a Nokia like speed for texting. Its amazingly responsive, and the T9 implementation is fantastic. Its very good (if you can stand the buttons that is!) I found that the best...

Finding a way through it all

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...I've not been on ciao all that long and I'm still on a little white dot which looks very pitiful next to my name but I am new and I find it hard to get the time to write lots at the minute but today I thought I would write a 'free' review about myself seeing as I'm new so you guys can get to know me. My name is Gia and I'm 27. I'm originally from Bulgaria but we moved over to England when was 12 and I have adopted the English way of life and think of it as home. I soon settled in in England, I made lots of friends at school and I was very popular at schol because not only was a new girl which warranted a lot of interest but I also am an identical twin- cue lots of double looks and people playing spot the difference. Once I left school I went on to college and studied photography where i was really happy studying something i was...

Review of All About Me

It's a real all terrain vehicle!

Advantages: Manoeuvrability, light weight, lockable swivel wheel & lie flat seat
Disadvantages: Might be bit too big for small hatchback

..., with the lockable swivel front wheel ideal - lock straight on rough ground and you can tackle anything. It's also quite light in comparison to other brands and folds up quite well. We have two large cars but I do acknowledge that fitting this in a small hatchback would be a challenge, although the two rear wheels are easy release (like on a golf trolley). The rain cover's been invaluable and the handy flap up window gives extra fresh air if the rain stops. There is a pump for the tyres which you might find yourself kicking sometimes as it sits on the cross bar between the rear tyres; I lost mine on rough terrain one day although was lucky enough that someone found it. You can run with this model - I've tried it only over a short distance and it was fine, the adjustable handle heights help. In all, it's definitely at the expensive end...
