BlackVue DR500GW Not quite as good as expected – Newest model of the series Now with WIFi Has wider angle lens which is not really an improvement over the DR400G Has a magnify feature with which you are supposed to be able to… read numberplates etc within the picture. It is however extremely poor as I cannot read any plates despite trying different distances and angles. I have a DR400 and a DR 350 and prefer the lens angle of them over the 500. These can take up to a 32gig Micro SD card but need one faster than a 6 grade for good video I use 10 grade cards only The Wifi works Ok and can watch it on my Iphone and was easy to set up The Blackvue app is available for both Apple and Android pones Faster start than older models Too wide an angle on lens |

Cover-More Travel Insurance Still getting bills from Provider after 6 months and 3 days – I have had endless communication with Covermore since having to go to a hospital in Seattle on May 13th last I actually rang from there to Australia to check if I should pay the… bill myself or not, I was told to get it sent to my home address and then make a claim when I got home in late June When I got home was told I should have sent it direct to Covermore. Some staff training needed here I think. Since then I have been getting bills monthly from Seattle and finally rang the hospital to tell them to send them to Covermore. Am still getting bills at home and its now 6 months and 3 days since my attendance. and 5 months since I made the claim. Last bill sent from USA on 11 Oct, got here 2 weeks ago. Covermore did accept the claim but continue to say they are negotiating settlement via a 3rd party in USA How long does it take to do this. Am disgusted at this tardiness and would never recommend this company to anyone, for two reasons Staff obviously dont give you correct information and they try and beat the biller down in price.. Was easy to buy Is hard to get a result |

Fisher & Paykel 90cm 4 Zone Induction CI604DTB1 Great little unit – We bought this to go in a new unit we bought which had an ordinary cooktop the same size. This one is faster than gas and wife who likes gas cooking is very happy with it. Is… an old model now but is a goody. Was a very good substitution for what was supplied. Ease of use speed of heating, safety as cool in seconds. Had to buy a set of Steel bottomed pots to work on it as copper wont work. |

Topfield TF7100HDPVRt Great machine can record 4 programs at once no probs at all – Have had mine for nearly a year now and no probs. Will record 4 programs at a time good as gold. We use a standby eliminator and the machine still retains its settings. … When we got it remote was faulty (2 buttons didnt work) We were sent a new one without argument via Express. Have more trouble with the TV programs running late when using the guide to record than anything else. Would recommend one of these despite others seeming problems. Lights too bright,(Read the manual) Remote buttons badly placed, get used to it not that hard. I can set it to record and play using only my thumb when holding the remote Easy to use once familiar with it. good recording capacity. ability to record several programs at once Haven't had any problems after getting remote replaced |

BlackVue DR400G HD Best thing I ever bought – Have had this for 3 months now and is amazing what you capture on it. Gives date speed and GPS position. Is HD and you can read number plates while moving Has shock sensor… which protects images caused by a shock. This is adjustable so as bumps in road dont register. Has a parking function so that it can record anything that happens when you are away. So good have bought one for rear window as well This is a lower spec model but does the job without having GPS. However front one will also record details of any parking incidents and have GPS coordinates on it Every car should have one At The Moment is expensive but prices coming down |
