Wickes 2300w Angle Grinder
Written on: 23/04/2018 by SMUSMU (1 review written)
I bought this 'own brand' Wickes 9" angle grinder thinking that being own-brand, that they would stand behind it. That was a mistake. The grinder failed after its second outing. Here is the rub: Wickes do not even know who made the grinder for them! Yes seriously, and this comment below is coming from the Customer care team verbatim: "I am sorry that we were not able to provide you with the manufacturers details as this is a Wickes own brand product." So there you have it. If it… Read Full Review
Bosch PLR 15 Laser Rangefinder
Written on: 12/04/2018 by Sid Pollartd (3 reviews written)
I recently had the need of a laser measure & invested in a Bosch PLR15. Not the top of its league, as it's maximum range is only 15 meters, but I had no need to splash the cash for what I needed, and what I got was exactly what I needed.

Being used to longevity in battery powered things, I was surprised to find that the life is only 5 hrs, but as that's in measuring operation mode I… Read Full Review
LED Lenser H7.2 Head Torch
Written on: 27/04/2017 by GazzerUK (33 reviews written)
On the face of it this looks good. Nice bright wide beam. Comfortable. Adjustable up and down, as well as zoom. Nicely balanced. Well made. Looks good quality. It is a nightmare to operate and the instructions make no sense whatsoever. There is a wheel at the rear with a button, and also a button on top of the light. A bewildering combination of illogical and unfathamable turns of the dial, presses of the rear button, presses of the front button are required for basic operation. Why they… Read Full Review
Argos Challenge Xtreme Hammer Drill 18v
Written on: 17/01/2017 by Craigsparky (1 review written)
This drill was bought from argos to put up pictures in a masonry wall. After waiting 6 HOURS! for drill to charge it died after four 5mm holes! The build quality is terrible, the batteries are giant for such poor run time. Everything about this product is bad from the ground up. I later went to screwfix and bought a 50 pound titan combi drill with 2 batteries which has unbelievable run time for the same stated ah rating as the challenger. On a side to side comparison the titan drilled masonry… Read Full Review
