Trolley-tastic!
Review of Smoby Supermarket Trolley by
mummy2harry
Advantages: Small, lightweight, hours of fun, cheap
Disadvantages: Nothing!
...My little boy Harry has been dragged around the shops with me since he was about 3 weeks old. Consequently, he rather loves sitting in the big supermarket trolley being Daddy's trolley helper when we do our weekly shop. So when it came to thinking of things for Father Christmas to bring Harry, we couldn't quite resist buying him this little trolley!
The trolley is made the company Smoby, who produce a large range of children's toys, available in toy shops and all across the internet. The trolley comes in the colours of light blue and a lime green, with fetching red wheels. The wheels are held on by plastic screws which are nice and sturdy and rotate smoothly, and squeak free! It also has a sticker on the side of the basket which reads "Let's Shop" in case us mummies and daddies forget what it's for! It is made of sturdy plastic...

As well as a trolley, a learning experience too.

funkyjo
Advantages: Teaches so many different things.
Disadvantages: None.
...Trolley.
******************************
I bought this shopping trolley for my god sons birthday and decided it was such a good toy that I had to get one for my daughters birthday.
The leap frog shopping trolley is like no other toy shopping trolley I have seen before. It comes fully fitted with a scanner and game settings which I will tell you about shortly.
This shopping trolley is mainly green and yellow in colour with some blue and red and is made of strong durable plastic.
Also with your shopping trolley you recieve ten items of shopping as follows; (all of which are mad out of strong, durable and colourful plastic)

ASDA Beech effect PC Trolley / Computer Desk
Review of ASDA Beech PC Trolley (computer Desk) by
lostsworld
Advantages: nice looking, easy to setup and cheap
Disadvantages: either chip board or mdf
...Have been looking around for a PC desk recently and needed something small but big enough for the usual PC equipment. Was going to buy a 2nd hand one until I seen this in ASDA and decided to buy it.
At £27 give or take a few pence I grabbed it and thought I'd take a chance and I'm glad I did. The PC desk has top shelf for monitor, middle shelf for keyboard, lower middle shelf for printer/scanner etc and a base shelf for whatever you want. Where does the PC unit go your thinking ! The desk has a side metal shelf that can be fitted either site for the desk that a tower case can fit. But I have a desktop case !!! I hear you say, no matter the base unit will fit on the bottom shelf and you can do away with the metal side shelf or use it as magazine/paper storage.
The desk itself has 4 wheels and the 2 front are locking...

BNibbles Finally Off His Trolley?
Review of East AnglianTransport Museum by
BNibbles
Advantages: More there than 1st impressions would indicate
Disadvantages: Strictly open air - weather permitting!
...the full English breakfast (and I do mean full!) and four-course dinner on the way back, leaving you with only your drinks bill to settle before getting off, in my case at Finsbury Park. Entry to the museum and shuttles to-and-from Lowestoft Station in vintage buses were also included.
THE MUSEUM EXHIBITS
First impressions are that it's not very big, as a walk around the site will confirm, seemingly one hundred meters wide and about three hundred long. However, once it all comes to life, it starts to feel much more realistic.
Yesterday was a 'London Trolleybus Gala Day'; my reason for going. This is a working museum - very few exhibits are permanently static. Yesterday, for example, we had a range of say ten different trolley buses and a clutch of trams running the main street for all its three hundred yards, along with a vintage...

Belkin Folio Ipod Nano White Case
Review of Belkin Folio Case For iPod nano Case MP3 player by
coopsta133
Advantages: Clean, Tough, Looks very well built
Disadvantages: Expensive, have to remove to charge, slightly gets in the way of the hold button
...When I purchased my Ipod nano, I have heard plenty about how easily they are damaged so I made sure along side its purchase I ordered a case. I chose this on because it was a Belkin case which I like that brand. It also was white to match the Ipod and it also looked quite appealing to me for my tastes.
Unfortunately the case was quite expensive coming in at about 15 pounds from the apple website but at least I was pleased to se it came with a "free/something to make it seem like your money was well spent" screen protector. The protector itself is a little film of plastic that is non-adhesive so it does not stick to your screen for easy removal.
The case is made of nice looking quality leather. It is stitched so it's not just cheaply glued together. The inside is very soft and smooth so it is not to scratch the delicate mirror...

Tomtom - just in case! . . .
Review of TomTom Carry case ONE Case GPS by
smudgeybabes
Advantages: Protects.
Disadvantages: None.
...First the technical stuff, the case is made of plastic, ethylene-vinyl acetate actually, which is a form of soft thermoplastic, including recycled materials, so you could say you are doing your bit for the environment. The outer covering is hardwearing Nylon.
The carry case comes complete with a wrist strap, although personally I would not trust it. It has an improved zip, apparently the old one was prone to jamming. The picture Ciao have put up is of the old model, the new one is very similar, just a little more subtle.
These cases are a good idea for keeping dust and scratches at bay, however, it may have been a better idea if the case was fitted with belt loops, so you could carry it on your belt, or a strap like binoculars have, rather than risk it slipping out of your pocket, or even leaving it in the car. The downside...

Vanguard Camera Case
Review of Vanguard LIMA 6B Case Camera by
costas1234
Advantages: Cheap price, Safe and Durable, Waterproof, and Camera Protective
Disadvantages: Made in China, Available in black only.
...Background to Vanguard
Until I started to write this review I had no idea who they were. I searched online and read a few reviews about the company. The company specialise in manufacturing camera bags, binoculars, tripods and cases for guns to name a few products. This companies customers include major camera manufacturers.
Vanguard Camera Case
For a camera case it is a low priced entry level camera case used to hold, store and allow the user to move around with a camera inside the pouch. The camera case is black coloured throughout. The case has the Vanguard's logo encased on the closing part of the pouch. Also the material is polyester and I suppose that it is good that it is not made from leather as the leather in the summer weather reacts to the heat. This camera case also adheres to the international quality...

Krusell Cabriolet LG Viewty Leather Case
Review of Krusell Leather Case for LG Viewty by
ecaps1
Advantages: Snug fit, quality made, comfortable to grip and good lens cover
Disadvantages: Makes the phone bulkier, some buttons may feel more awkward to press
...Krusell Cabriolet - LG Viewty Leather case
Having just updated my mobile handset to the LG Viewty I was keen to get a case which would keep it in slightly better shape than my last mobile which I'd throw around everywhere and toss into my bag. There didn't seem to be many Viewty cases on the market, several were generic ones a bit like a solid sunglasses case which shut with a magnetic popper - something I wasn't keen on as I'd have to keep taking it in and out of the case to use it, and also having read somewhere (although this may not be factually acurate) that the magnet could affect the internal workings of the phone. Just in case, I decided on a case which I could use the phone but still protected the shiny bits and the Krusell case suited perfectly.
The case fits the handset snugly and the holes allow access...

Is that case a killer or is it just a case
Review of Bond Attache Case (Box Set) by
gizmoregis
Advantages: Wow, more than a smashing case
Disadvantages: I already own some of these films!!
...(1999) - Pierce Brosnan
20. Die Another Day (2002) - Pierce Brosnan
Like many Bond fans I already owned many of the films included in the case and so had to think twice about upgrading my Special Edition Bond collection to the Ultimate Edition.
The age of some of the films meant that some of the DVDs I had were of poor quality the Ultimate edition features newly restored picture and soundtrack on each film and is easily worth the £200+ fee alone. In the titles (paricularly the earlier entries). Colours are richer and deeper, the prints are sharper and in dark sequences, what were on the originals merely blocks of black, now show up all sorts of intricate detail in the shadows. All graininess and every fleck of dirt, hair and print damage has been removed from every single frame.
I have watched many of the films now and they have...

Great Case For Sony Cyber-Shot Camera
Review of Sony Cyber-shot LCSNA Case Digital photo camera by
Surj1
Advantages: Wrist wrap, Leather case and good protection
Disadvantages: None
...The Sony Cyber Shot LCSNA is a case for the Sony Cyber Shot digital camera. I bought this to basically protect my digital camera is it's small and delicate. The other reason I got this case was that the camera is small and I just wanted it in a casing so it would be easier to handle and it wouldn't just slip out of my pocket easily.
The case itself is black in colour, compact and light in design just like the camera and snugly holds the camera. The case is made from genuine leather and comes with a wrist strap for easy carrying and accessibility when you're out and about. The Cyber Shot logo is also embedded on the outside flap of the case which itself is Velcro for easy access.
Main information:
- Wrist strap
- Black colour
- Leather
- Dimensions (WxDxH) 10.8 cm x 3.8 cm x |
