Garmin Forerunner 225 Highly functional activity watch – This watch features a heart rate monitor, step counter, calories, distance, GPS, sleep monitoring and more. It is easy to use and has plenty of features to measure your… activities. During daily routine I found the step counter useful and it calculates a daily goal for you each day. When running it shows your heart rate zone, speed, distance, time and more. I found this device encouraging to exercise by giving feedback during exercise and rewards after such as a PB for time or distance. Surprisingly I like the step counter because the daily goal changes and you wouldn't go to bed 200 steps short! I don't know how the sleep counter works but it seems acurate with light and deep sleep cycles as well detecting when I wake up to attend to the kids during the night. I also used it in a hockey game to track my movements, distance and speed which was interesting on the app. I have also used it to walk the kids to school and working on the wards to track my distance. It is reasonably acurate on the treadmill if the GPS is turned off. The app is easy to read and gives a good comprehensive statistical analysis of your events. You can even preset training programs onto a calender into your watch or use preset programs for particular events eg 12 klm run at easy medium or hard training and it will plan out a training schedule for you on its calendar. Overall I love this watch and have barely taken it off since I bought it. It did take a while to figure out how to sync it to my phone and laptop but after that it's great. The app does so much and easy to navigate. It can be a little overwhelming and I am still finding new things. |

Geist Aktiv AK 565 Great family caravan for glampers – We have the AK 565 and it easily caters for our family of 5. Built in Germany, it offers 5 star luxury. Inside it has a Huge queens size bed that converts to a club lounge,… bunks, another dinette, large ensuite with separate shower/toilet with hot water, ducted heating, oven, fridge, tv.... and loads more! The van has a light and airy feel with heaps of windows and plenty of lighting. There is plenty of storage everywhere in the right place. Everything feels like quality and well designed. We love the bed concept that makes good use of space for day and night. Hitching up is a breeze to the ALKO chasis with built in antisway and over-running brakes. You don't need heavy weight distribution bars or electric brake controllers. It only weighs 1200kg and tows beautifully behind our Commodore which can tow 2100kg. It has everything you need for cheap and fun holidays. Bed configuration, easy to use. Screen off the kids room. Light weight and it looks really modern and smart. Excellent for caravan parks and some free camping, but not an off roader! |

Joyce Mayne Great experience! – We shopped around heaps and the product knowledge at Joyce Mayne was amazing. The staff could tell us the pros and cons of each coffee machine and how to pull each one apart and… clean it. It was far superior to any other store. We have found this with other roducts as well. Great service and very knowledgeable |

Ariston LBF 5B / LBF 5BX / LBF 51 / LBF 51X Reliable basic machine – We have owned this machine for a year and it has proven to be reliable. We use it at least once a day and does a reasonable job. It has minimal features but is easy to use. The… quick wash only takes 30 minutes and we found no difference with the longer cycles. It has a good looking glossy chrome finish. It is easy to use. I like the quick 30 minute wash. It operates very quietly. The door is light and has a strong handle. Cheap with long 5 year waranty. Cheap and nasty racks. No child lock. |

LG 567L Side by Side Door GR-P197NIS Excellent fridge, has practical and impressive features – We bought this fridge 4 years ago and have had no problems. We paid $1600 for it and it was far cheaper than its competitors. It looks really good. The beverage door and the ice… dispenser work really well receive a lot of comments. The width is less than 900mm and fits most spaces. Takes a while to clean and put back together because all of the shelves are different sizes. It is a bit on the small side inside but has many compartments and shelves. |
