Vax not so rapide!

Advantages: Will clean very light fresh stains.
Disadvantages: Sounds like the Red Arrow display team is giving a show in your front room.

...rapide spring carpet cleaner was on offer for half price which is what attracted me to it. I thought to myself that I could use a carpet washer it would make my life easier. I was expecting it to bring my beige carpet back to life and I thought it would be a lot easier than getting on my hands and knees scrubbing. It looked fairly streamline and I had already planned on storing it in the corner of a room. So it seemed like a perfect product for me. At the time of purchase I paid under £60 for it, which is half price although this carpet cleaner always seems to be on offer!! Vax is a well known brand so you expect to get good results. The carpet cleaner is no bigger than an upright vacuum cleaner. It comes with a bottle of the carpet cleaning solution, and it states not to use any other cleaning solution in the machine as it will break it...

Review of Vax Rapid Spring Carpet Cleaner

Vax Rapide

Advantages: Easy to Use
Disadvantages: Quite noisy

...I bought A Vax Rapide Cleaner In December last year! I paid £160 for it, And also bought a pack of 3 bottles of the conditioner for around £15.. I bought this cleaner as I have a light coloured carpet and I can't stand to see dirty marks on it. Once I unpacked the Vax it was quite easy to put together.. Now for the cleaning test...Filled the tank up with water and conditioner and away we go. At first I didnt see any change to be honest, Just that the carpet was just a slightly darker, Well it would be, it was wet after all. I had a few stains in mind, And moved straight to the slight tea stain by the sofa....And yes after going over the stain 15 or so times it did fade away! (But would it have not done the same if I had just knelt down and scrub it with a cloth?) Ok Next was the hall way! Now this area is the entrance to the house...

Review of VAX Rapide XL

Vax Rapide carpet cleaner

Advantages: Quick and value for money
Disadvantages: noise, weight

...Vax Rapide Deluxe V-026 **Introduction** I bought this carpet cleaner 3 months ago after looking at various models but mainly just Vax and Bissell brands. I'd heard very good reports from friends about both brands, most people said that the carpets 'came up as new' so I decided to take the plunge and buy the middle of the range model from Vax. After shopping around I decided to buy the Vax Rapide Deluxe model for £94 + VAT and delivery from www.goshopdirect.co.uk, this included paying an extra £7 for next day delivery, I believe their normal delivery time is around 7-10 days. I was very impressed with the service from goshopdirect and the hoover arrived via courier on the given delivery date. After researching a few different carpet cleaners I chose the Rapide Deluxe because it has a twin motor setup, compared to cheaper models...

rapid sterilising

Advantages: Very quick, very spacious, nice design
Disadvantages: have to clean every week or shortens sterilising time

...I bought the lindam rapid steam steriliser as it was cheap £26 and looked good, It does a 6 minute cycle and claims to be the fastest steam steriliser on the market at the minute, it is also very spacious with out being huge and looks good on the kitchen side. The steriliser can fit up to 9 standard bottles or 6 wide bottles, and is suitable for all types of bottles on the market. When it arrived i read all the instructions and then set about unpacking it all, included is the steriliser, a long detachable power cord, accessory tray and bottle holder tray, tongs and water measurer. The mains cord is very long and one end plugs into the wall the other into the back of the steriliser, The bottle tray fits nicely in to the steriliser, at the front of the tray there is a square dip due to the steriliser having a sticky out bit...

Review of Lindam Rapid Steam Sterliser

Is the extinction of hand writing near? (Tipp-Ex Rapid Fluid)

Advantages: Corrects your mistakes.
Disadvantages: Far from a rapid dry.

...the product is, directions for use and the standard safety warnings (highly flammable, irritant and dangerous for the environment). I've still not quiet worked out what kind of action we should take regarding the latter safety warning. --- The white stuff --- My first impression is you don't get much bang for your buck. Just 20ml in a pot, but seen as I hardly ever use the stuff then I shouldn't really complain. The application is straight forward as you get a foam pad attached to the lid that pulls out as you remove the top from the pot. The label states raid, rapid indeed. There is nothing more frustrating than watching paint dry and the same can be said for Tipp-Ex. Nothing makes making that little spelling mistake even more of a issue than having to wait for the Tipp-Ex you covered it with dry as you think over your stupidity. Rapid should be...

VAX RAPID SPRING

Advantages: Easy to use and saves money
Disadvantages: none

...I got people into shampoo my living room carpet. I paid £35 for this. After it was done I noticed that there were still a few stains. I was not happy about this. Then I noticed inthe newspaper T.J. Hughes advertising this Vax Rapid Spring shampooer. I visited the shop and bought this at £49. I thought that at least if it was not very good, then I was not wasting much money. As it turned out it is very good. I have used this in my kitchen where you intend to get a lot more stains as you are cooking in there.It was brilliant. I then had a party and lo and behold somebody spilled wine and other alcohol. I again got out the vax and shampooed this carpet. Again ,brilliant. I now have had more than my monies worth and would not pay somebody ever again to do this job as I can do this over and over again all for the price of £49...

Rapidly insured

Advantages: Quick, comprehensive cover e-mailed directly to you.
Disadvantages: Others mention problems processing payments.

...I had never bought travel insurance before, never mind online, and so I really did not know what to expect. I had some quotes from travel agents, as part of a package holiday, but other people had warned me that there were much cheaper options available. I also wanted insurance that would arrive quickly as I was going on the holiday within the next 10 days. RapidInsure.co.uk lived up to its name. It is extremely easy to use and navigate, and it only takes a couple of clicks to get a quote and process payment. All the information on the site is clearly laid out. Details are given of relevant contact numbers, how to make a claim, the 24 hour emergency medical line, and the levels of cover provided. I found the cover to be good- the main thing I wanted was cancellation insurance as well as medical, and this was provided. hThe company is...

Rapid White - Grin and bare it

Advantages: It really works (does what it says on the side of the box!)
Disadvantages: You never want to stop using it!

...its not just Brits with the problem) It cost about eight pound for a week trial pack (it was on special). It was made by Rapid White and had before and after (with un air-brushed but probably well tooth-brushed pics to show how I too could look like a dentist poster! For the first time since my Tony the Tiger Toothbrush when I was five-years-old I was actually looking forward to brushing my teeth. There was what looked like a gum shield and two tubes of ?stuff? hmmm. Ok so far!. The applicator pen looked like glue though ? I was already thinking what I would say to firemen when they eventually released my chompers from sticky hell. I followed the instructions and put the first gel into the gum shield - or ?mouth tray?and applied the accelerator pen to my teeth ? trying hard not to close my mouth. It?s a bit like putting a Fruit...

Rapidly Tiring

Advantages: Brandon Lee, decent martial arts fighting, one or two interesting or touching scenes.
Disadvantages: Macho two-dimensional male characters, women as plot devices, gratuitous violence to the point of pure boredom, whiney self-pitying hero.
