Garden Furniture

Advantages: Comfort and style
Disadvantages: May not stock them in bnq anymore!

...I like to have stylish furniture, I bought this for my dads house in cyprus and it looks fabolous in the summer, we even use it in the house during the rest of the year. Not only does it look good but it also brings extremely good comfort, the cushions have special foam in them which has been designed to ensure maximum comfort. The cane used is of excellent quality, selected and shaped to ensure the best standard of product possible. It is very easy to assembly, with clear instructions given, so anybody can do it! I found mine at bnq for £299. However i am unsure if they still stock them but i have seen many available on ebay, offers varying. They really are a pleasure to sit/lay on and enjoy the sun or even have them inside the house. Would really reccomend them to anybody wishing to purchase a value for money...

What a Polish -Tesco Value Furniture Polish

Advantages: It does the job just as well as more expensive ones
Disadvantages: none

...I have quite a lot furniture which is made of wood so I do go through a lot of polish so when I discovered Tesco Value Furniture Polish I thought I just give it ago and it only costs around 33p which I would say amazing. So off I went with the polish in one hand and the duster in the other and started to use it on my Dining room table. It is so easy to use and so I sprayed a little on the table and I soon found that it came up with a lovely shine and the dust just disappeared. I found the smell not as strong and overpowering like other brands of polish and that is a bonus for me as often I find I can get knocked out the the fragrances of many other furniture polishes The design of the aerosal is the usual colour scheme of blue,red and white and it holds 330ml. There are warning notice on the can saying this product is very...

Aluminium Garden Furniture

Advantages: Looks Unusual
Disadvantages: Weathers terribly

...After having our garden landscaped 2 years ago, including more decking than you could shake a stick at, we decided that our old, white plastic garden furniture just didn't match anymore. After much deliberation, we decided on aluminium furniture and scoured all the local outlets. We settled for a hexagonal table, with a bronze coloured aluminim frame and a frosted glass top. The top had a hole in the middle to take the cream coloured wind-up parasol. The six aluminim framed chairs had a sort of plastic coated wire mesh as a seat, which was light and practical, and dried out within minutes after a shower of rain. It cost a total of £500 for the lot, including 2 matching sun loungers. The whole suite looked excellent, and was very easy to keep clean - just a wipe with a damp cloth. The glass top did, however, get grubby...

Throne for the Garden gnome!

Advantages: Beautiful hardwood bench
Disadvantages: Not cheap

...We recently had a new patio built and I had hoped to do a review but haven?t discovered a suitable topic in which to write about it, but as we have been enjoying sitting out in the sunshine we decided that we needed some more up-market garden furniture and so it?s about the garden bench that I am going to tell you about today. I wanted a table, chairs and umbrella, but it would probably cover the whole patio and then you wouldn?t be able to admire the lovely pattern! So I agreed with my husband (unusually for me!) and we went looking yesterday for a bench instead. I had looked in the Argos book but as you can?t actually see the item before you buy it, we were a bit wary and so went to Homebase as they were advertising 10% off today and although the better half was working if we choose something I planned to go today to buy it, save...

Lafuma RSX, the ultimate garden recliner.

Advantages: Comfort, adjustability, quality, guarantee, comfort...
Disadvantages: price.

...Bought on an impulse from a camping shop at £175 for two, cheap they aren?t but they are worth every penny! ************************************** These French made chairs come with a two-year guarantee and are the ultimate in garden comfort. High tensile steel frames have elastic lacing threaded through loops supporting a padded seat complete with headrest, which will have you nodding off in the sun in no time. The reclining action is very smooth and infinitely adjustable so you can sit in the exact position you want and not in one predefined by the manufacturer. Once you're happy with the position simply turn out the levers under each arm rest to lock the seat in position. The tops of the resin arms have built in pads to make things even more comfortable. The headrest is a simple but clever pad held on by a loop of elastic...

Tesco value range strikes again

Advantages: Cheap, pleasant fragrance, efficient cleaning
Disadvantages: None that I can think of

...Whether you have to do it yourself or are fortunate enough to pay someone else to do it, it will always be a part of daily life? the cleaning! Although I love watching Kim and Aggie go about their business in people?s horrendously dirty homes, making up environmentally friendly, cheap and basic cleaning lotions and potions, unfortunately I?ve yet to follow suit and practise most of these myself and so instead reach for my collection of cleaning agents neatly packed in the cupboard under the sink. One of my faithful friends found in here is the Tesco value furniture polish which I have been using now on and off for a few years. PACKAGING The can itself is basic, white with the red/blue Tesco logo, a picture of a chair and description to the front and all you need to know about the product on the rear. PRICE...

In the night garden ninky nonk train set

Advantages: strong, versatile, compact, nice bright colours, fun to play with
Disadvantages: none so far

...I decided to buy the in the night garden ninky nonk train set from Amazon as my young daughter is a big fan of in the night garden and whenever it comes on TV she gets really excited. So as my daughter already had some of the other characters from the show I wanted her to have the whole set and since buying it the train set the ninky nonk train set has become one of her favourite toys to play with on a daily basis. The train set can come apart and be attached on many different ways and my daughter enjoys looking at the nice bright colours and putting some of the other in the night garden characters onto the train set even though it keeps falling of now and again it keeps her busy and sometimes I hear her in fits of giggles. The train set is very cute and versatile and its great as children such as mine can have hours of fun with it...

Beautiful furniture but expensive

Advantages: Great quality, Good ethics, beautiful furniture
Disadvantages: Expensive

...I recently bought a teak garden table, chairs and parasol made by Alexander Rose. Because of the price - we looked around to try to find an equivalent product which was cheaper. Unfortunately, having seen the Alexander Rose range, nothing else compared in terms of quality or comfort (I didn't realise wooden chairs could be so comfortable!). Everything else seemed rather flimsy or rickety in comparison. I think that their products are a very good choice ethically as well. Most of the furniture is made in a village in Ghana where they pay their workers a fair wage and give them and their family health care. They're also strict about where their wood is sourced from, to ensure that it's sustainable. The furniture I bought is beautiful and unlike a lot of other garden furniture on the market, doesn't have to be treated, although...

Peas please Louise

Advantages: taste good
Disadvantages: non e

...Peas please Louise, I often have a packet of Tesco frozen garden peas in my freezer. I think the packaging must have changed since this category was added as it is not such a lush green pack anymore. The product the same just Tesco has updated the pack These garden peas are available in 1kg pack and in a 1.8kg bag. The 1kg bag costs 1.63, the 1.8kg bag £2.82 (£1.57 per kg) so if you have room the bigger bag works out cheaper. I find a bag of peas handy to keep in the freezer as I can easily use as many as I need at any time. Peas are often the vegetable that will be eaten by children. (except my grandson ) Peas go well as a vegetable accompaniment to most meals. These Tesco garden peas are good ones, not hard bullet and tasteless. They are a fairly good bright green maybe not the smallest and sweetest frozen pea, but...

  Working for Tesco

Advantages: Good pay, great benefits package
Disadvantages: Crap uniform, crap managers

...Ok, first of all, I'd just like to mention, this is a looooooooooooong review, so if you're not actually interested in reading about Tesco as an employer, then I'd suggest you don't bother as it will take some patience to get through! When I left school at the age of 18, and having decided I couldn't be bothered with university, I suddenly had to face the big bad world and go and find myself a job. I wasn't really fussy about what job I did - I've never been ambitious, and simply wanted a job where I could go to work, do my job, come home and not have to think about it. As our local Tesco is just 5 minutes away, I decided to apply there. I wrote a letter requesting an application form, and a few days later received a lovely letter and the form I had asked for. I read through the form and thought, wow, I don't know how to answer...
