Braun SI 6550 Iron

Advantages: Great features, feels good to use and move around fabrics, good cord amount
Disadvantages: None other than the original cost

...When it comes to irons, I don?t seem to have that much luck with them if I am honest! I seem to have got through a couple over the past few months and when I was not getting on at all well with my Tesco Value iron I decided to start looking for an upgrade. The Tesco iron only had very basic features and I missed the steam and water spray functions so with those in mind I started looking for a new model, I do like to look before I buy so took a trip down to my local Comet and the model that I have brought, the Braun SI6550 iron looked and felt ok and came with some good features, those 2 I mentioned being a couple so I went back home and did my research on finding it for the right price and about a week later, the iron was delivered to my door, here are my thoughts. I eventually found that the iron was the cheapest on the Amazon...

Swan Iron SI4050N.........

Advantages: Works well, lightweight to use around fabrics, good price
Disadvantages: Struggles on tough fabrics

...It would be fair to say that when it comes to irons I do not have the best track record! When I moved out of home my mum kindly passed me hers as she was getting a new one, that gave up on me so I invested in a rather cheap Tesco model and that didn?t last long so I am now finding myself investing in yet another iron. Spending a little time looking through the Argos catalogue I decided to invest in a Swan branded iron, this was the brand that had lasted my mum well (At least till I ended up with it!) so I have brought the swan iron , model number SI4050N and here are my thoughts. As you will have read above, I got this iron from Argos, I looked in their catalogue and saw it was in stock, Argos was also the same price as Amazon for this model and as I was in need of a quick fix I popped into town.

Review of Swan SI4050N

Good child's camera

Advantages: easy to use and durable
Disadvantages: screen size could be bigger

...This was bought for my 3 year old son who always wanted to use our camera, which we were afraid that he was going to drop one day. So, this seemed like the ideal solution. The only down side was the price, which costs around £35-£40. I really wanted to buy him a cheap one from Argos or Tesco for less than £20, with a bigger screen size. However, I knew that being used by a child, it would be dropped and very soon broken. So, begrudgingly, I bought it because of it's durability. I was pleasantly suprised. It is chunky and thus easy for little fingers to hold. The sides are rubberised and I think this reduces the impact when dropped...and trust me, it has been dropped a few times. We have the blue one and that has two faces that are interchangeable. The only disadvantage is that the screen size (1.8") is rather small for children. Also...
