Shinco DVB-100T Digital Freeview TV tuner Silver

from: Shinco

October 31, 2006
This does not work at all in the car. I bought this hoping my kids could watch on long car journeys - but can never get a signal. The tuner, however does work if you connect it to an inside aerial. If you want this for your car - don't waste your money !

Fireman Sam - To The Rescue!

starring: Fireman Sam, John Sparkes, Joanna Ruiz, Sarah Hadland

May 09, 2005
If you loved the original all those years ago with the voice of the inimitable John Alderton, you will love this new updated version. The theme tune has been revamped, the stories are all brand new and so are some of the characters. There's a new Mountain Rescue to add to the emergency fun, crewed by an Aussie pilot and his helicopter. All the old favourite original residents of Pontypandy are there too, as eccentric as ever and constantly needing one emergency service or other!

It's pacey, it's funny, kids love it and it will prove a real asset to your collection. Buy it and watch them enjoy!

Hyundai HPD719 - Multi-region 7" LCD Portable DVD/MPEG-4 Player - Pink with Free Carry Case

from: Hyundai

August 08, 2007
I bought this item last year as a present and after less than 12 months it doesn't work. Amazon washed their hands of the problem and the Hyundai contact they supplied does not answer/exist. Looking at other reviews of this product it seems unable it will last even 12 months. I would suggest you go elsewhere to buy and do not touch this product with a bargepole.

Duracell Supreme AA 2650mAh Pack of 4

from: Duracell


I purchased these for use with my Wii. They charged very quickly and last an age between charges thanks to the the 2650mAh. There's also the typical robust build quality as you would expect from Duracell.

If you have any gaming remote, digital camera, or any other product that requires AA batteries, these will serve you very well and repay you many times over compared to buying disposable batteries.

PS. For anyone buying a Wii, these are a far cheaper option than any of the docking stands if you already have a battery charger.

Mario Kart DS (Nintendo DS)

from: Nintendo

November 25, 2005
Purely and simply... addictive. There is so much to do here, Ive had this game for months and it still holds up, I will never sell it. If you want a classic game revamped to make more fun, stylish and more value for money its an essential. God, I love my ds.

Bob the Builder - Series 1

by: Bob the Builder

July 16, 2007
My 18 month old grandson wants me to put this on as soon as he arrives, and loves to stand in front of the tv to dance to the music. I do think he finds the one where Lofty is scared of the dark, rather scarey, but this dvd is well worth the money.

All The President's Men (2 Disc Special Edition) [1976]

starring: Robert Redford, Dustin Hoffman, Jason Robards, Martin Balsam, Hal Holbrook
directed by: Alan J. Pakula

February 13, 2006
All The President's Men (2 Disc Special Edition) [1976]Another one of my Dad's favorite movies. He was in college during the Watergate Scandal and followed it thoroughly. I saw the movie from his collection. The EXCELLENT FILM is based on the story of two reporters for the Washington Post, Carl Bernstein(Dustin Hoffman) and Robert Woodward(Robert Redford), who stumbled across a potential lead for a story that snow-balled, to their continued horror, to the incrimination of and forced resignation of President, Richard Nixon. Fed by the mysterious "Deep Throat", Bernstein and Woodward put their own pieces together, sold two and a half million copies of the Post and won a Pulitzer Prize. The script by William Goldman and based on Bernstein's and ... Read More:

Worth buying for Flip as the USB arm is fiddly to use, even with a keyboard USB port.

Sony DVPFX720W - 7" Portable DVD Player

from: Sony

September 12, 2007
Wanted a portable DVD for a while and after reading the reviews on Amazon decided to plump for this little baby. Looks extremely swish and as for performance...the first disc I loaded was Foo Fighters live at Wembley - WOW! The picture is so good you do forget you're only watching a 7" screen. Maybe it's just the novelty but I'd swear it's better than my 32" LCD in the living room. As you'd expect, the sound from the built-in speakers isn't much cop but with quality headphones strapped to your lugholes it's dreamy. The only reason I can't give it a fat five is because I haven't had it that long so I suppose there's still time for summat to go wrong - though looking at the other reviews that seems a remote possibility.

Philips GC4340 Azur Premium Steam Iron with Auto Shut Off 2400W

from: Philips DAP (UK Kitchen and Home Supplier)


I bought this iron about six months ago and it has worked perfectly since day one. The range of steam settings offers good incremental positions and the no steam setting can be selected with one small movement of the slide.

The shape of the face plate seems to suit my shirt size(16)and I think my shirts have never looked better. I iron my shirts box flat when travelling for business or when I have limited space and a work colleague has now asked me three times if my shirt was new!

The water reservoir is a bit small and does need refilling fairly frequently otherwise I would have given this 5 stars.
