Car cleaning made easy, the Dyson way.

Advantages: Well-known Dyson technology, comfortable drill-style design
Disadvantages: Shortish battery life

...This little number is a beauty - fantastic looks are combined with excellent performance to give a handheld vacuum cleaner that is so far ahead of the rest that it deserves its own category. It's so easy and natural to hold due to its drill-like handle and trigger set-up, and well-known Dyson technology is everywhere in evidence. It's clearly intended to be useful as a car vac, and its here that it really shines - the long nozzle easily fits in almost any crevice, and the powerful suction does the rest. A single charge cleans my car every time - there isn't much left in the battery by the time I'm finished though, so maybe this is the only drawback? But it doesn't fall short of the competition here either - every car vac I've ever used has a very short battery life. The Dyson has a recharging stand into which it slides easily - less...

Review of Dyson DC 16 Handheld Root 6

Keep out from EasyCar rental company

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: All: no support at all, no compromise with the customer, no refund,...

...My advice is that you NEVER rent a car to Easycar. I rented a car for a week this summer in Geneve. When I reached the airport the instructions were to contact to Alamo Desk. When I reached Alamo desk, they told me that there were no reservation in their reservations system. I have to call back to Easycar in Spain, and after complaining, they gave me no solution. Alamo Desk stated clearly that was Easycar's error, they were also talking to Easycar and told them that no reservation was introduced in their system. I had to find a car by my own going desk by desk to all car rentals companies in the airport, I had to pay for a new car rental again, and a more expensive one as they were no cars available. But the problem didn't stop here. I was said by the Easycar rental phone support that all additional costs will be payed back. When I...

Easy and cheap cut at home

Advantages: even easy cut, good value for money
Disadvantages: none to report yet

...I got this for my partner because, quite frankly, I was sick of him stealing the scissors and my razors at home! This clipper is a good product and I would always reccomend something from the babyliss range - call me a sucker for brands but I have never had a problem with the make when buying products before. The overall appearance isn't the typical appearance to clippers, at least not ones I've seen before but just like it says on the tin my partner found them easy to use and hold. Straight from the box the clippers use "Unique circular blade technology for multi directional cutting" which seem to make a massive differents than a pair of scissors giving the cut a nice and even appearance. The product is rechargable and comes with the mains equipment for corded use or uncorded, whichever you prefer! The results look very...

Easy as is should be

Advantages: Reasonable renting charges. New cars
Disadvantages: Limited mileage. Too many rules for some

...Recently it became necessary for me to take a trip from London up to Wrexham for an interview. However, after pricing up the cost of train tickets during peak times in the morning and evening I nearly had a heart attack. It was at this point that I decided to look around at the idea of hiring a car for the journey. After looking at a few and doing the relevant pricing comparisons I came across the Easycar.com website. With the aid of a very clear website and easy to read and understand charges and regulations I decided to give them a try. The prices of hiring their cars are incredibly cheap, especially if you book well in advance and mainly on weekdays, however weekends were still very competitive. The car you can hire depends on which branch that you use. The main choice is either Mercedes A class, or Vauxhall Corsas. We hired...

Car buying made Easy

Advantages: Web site with lots of photos, Lot of cars, low prices helpful staff
Disadvantages: Waiting -

...I went to car giant with my brother in law as he recomended them to me. Personaly i found the whole process really easy. I found my car on thier web site, it had loads of pictures of the car inside and out. I went there, my brother inlaw gave it a once over, we test drove it said yes,they then prepared it ( this did take a few hours) I paid for it and drove off. It took the best part of the afternoon/evening but they had a nice restaurant where we had somthing to eat and I went on thier free Internet for a hour or so. I got a 1 year old nissan micra which has 2 years warranty on it in a lovley silver colour. The staff were very helpfull, answering all of my questions nothing was too much for them....

Review of Car Giant Car Supermarket

Reasonable rental but rigid rules

Advantages: Very cheap, new cars, easy online booking
Disadvantages: Inflexible rules, possible unavailability of car, excessive fines

.... * Returning the car * This was no problem at all. We took it through a car-wash the night before, as it was looking fairly grubby after a month, and also gave it a good sweep inside. We actually got it back to the depot about half an hour early. Two different young men were in attendence; they noted the mileage and accepted that it was clean enough. We were pleased to note that there were only two other Kangoos in the car park this time, suggesting that the 'out-of-service' ones had been put right. * Accident waiver/insurance * When we first researched Easycar online (we didn't find it on Ciao - but I've since learned that the old name for this company was EasyRentaCar) we read that customers were generally pleased with them, but that there were potential enormous damages to pay in case of any accident, or even a minor bump or scrape...

EasyCars, not EasyKhazi

Advantages: See op
Disadvantages: See op

..., the latter being very helpful as we all know how taxi drivers can sometimes rip us off. ( I’m a cab driver, I should know! ;-) Seriously though, I’m THE honest one. I‘ll write my next op on how not to get ripped off by cab drivers) CARS are Mercedes A class 5 door – 4 seater (5 at a push) mini MPVs or Smart Car 2 seater “hair-dryers“! The A class is an excellent stock choice for a car rental fleet. It is easy to drive and has a high driving position which gives better vision, making driving on foreign and unfamiliar roads far easier and safer. The Smart car is an ideal city/resort car for nipping through busy streets and parking in tight spaces INSPECT the car on collection for scratches/slight damage and you then sign a collection condition agreement. RETURN of the car should be made to the same...

A Little Too Easy

Advantages: Lovely period detail and solid direction.
Disadvantages: It isn't as funny as it could be.

...drives a sports car, while the British women wear dresses and cardigans, she is the height of fashion in trousers and furs and so on?The costumes are beautifully cut and feature a range of fabrics, from hardy tweeds to slinky silks and satins and bobbly winter woollies. Elliott also captures the oppressive atmosphere of the house, focussing on the dark corners, cluttered rooms and stuffed animal heads mounted on the walls. He recognises the arch politeness of those that don't actually like each other but doesn't quite make enough of Cowards' waspish text. His comic timing is good, hitting jokes and moving on. The pacing is generally swift, but the director could have spent more time showing Larita and Mrs Whittaker's escalating game of one-upmanship, instead of compressing it into a single montage. It would also help if there was...

Review of Easy Virtue

Really Easy Cheap Car Hire

Advantages: Clear no hidden charges, simple booking system
Disadvantages: Difficult to judge how little fuel left in tank

...CarJet's web based car hire system is the best way to hire a car in spain. Just book online (you can pay on arrival if you want) and drop into the office at your destination airport. It's as simple as that. I must admit I was impressed with the clear no nonsense web site which gave prices with no hidden extras. Bookings are confirmed by e-mail and you are sent a receipt and booking voucher which you present on arrival. Here is the web address http://www.carjet.com. I was apprehensive about the booking, I thought it just cannot be this easy, I booked the smallest car available and Ford Ka for 13 days it cost £129, which is a really good deal. The only extra you pay is for a full tank of fuel, you bring the car back with as little fuel in it as possible, ok they make a bit on the remainder but who cares at Spanish prices. I needn't have...

Naturally Nice 'n' Easy

Advantages: easy to use, good results
Disadvantages: none for me

...I have been colouring my hair for years. My natural colour is mousy brown and it is very boring. My hair has been all different colours including blonde and I have used many different brands of hair colour. The colour I always end up going back to is red and my favourite brand is Clairol Nice ‘n’ Easy. These days I tend to go for the subtle shades and I am at the age where the grey hairs are starting to appear so I like to keep these well covered. I don’t usually pay the full price of £5.69 as I wait until it is on special offer in Boots and I bought it last week for £3.79. Boots usually have a good choice of colours in Blonde, Red, Brunette and Black. Each box on display shows a model on the front with hair colour for that shade. So it is easy to see what the colour is likely to be. Each colour is clearly marked...
