Cyrusher XF900 Electric Bike Review – A 750W full suspension fat tire eBike

Following on from my review of the excellent Engwe Engine Pro last month. I have recently been riding the Cyrusher XF900. This is a full-suspension fat tire bike that is equipped with a 750W Bafang motor and comes with a rear pannier rack and mudguards. Like most of my eBike reviews, Cyrusher is a Chinese…

Yeedi Vac 2 Pro Review – Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo

I have previously reviewed the affordable Yeedi K650 robot vacuum. I then partially reviewed the Yeedi Vac Station but had issues as it was the US model, and the self-empty station wouldn’t work properly. This time around, Yeedi has sent me the UK variant of the latest Vac 2 Pro, which is a combination of…

Acer Swift 5 Review – A premium lightweight laptop with the latest 12th Gen Intel Core i7-1260P – SF514-56T

It looks like this is the third time I have reviewed an Acer Swift 5. The first time was four years ago with it running an Intel Core i7-8550U, then in 2020 with the Intel Core i5-1035G1. The 2020 refresh runs the new Intel Core i7-1260P, which is a very different CPU from the usual…

EcoFlow DELTA 2 Portable Power Station Review

I have previously reviewed the excellent EcoFlow River Max 600Wh and, more recently, the Jackery Solar Generator 1000. I have now been reviewing the latest EcoFlow DELTA 2, which was launched at IFA just a couple of weeks ago. This is the first relatively affordable power station from EcoFlow that uses Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries,…

Hinomi H1 Pro Ergonomic Mesh Office Chair Review – A good Herman Miller alternative with incredible amounts of adjustments

I have had my Herman Miller Mirra for well over ten years, and I would say it has been one of my best purchases ever. Over the years, I have reviewed a few gaming chairs, and I have always liked them, but I strongly believe that a good office chair outclasses any gaming chair. The…

Jimmy H9 Pro Cordless Vacuum Review: A high-performance alternative vs the Dyson V10 & Shark IZ300UKT

Jimmy H9 Pro Cordless Vacuum Review: A high-performance alternative vs the Dyson V10 & Shark IZ300UKT

I have never heard of the brand Jimmy (JIMMY as they write it) before, but they are a sub-brand of KingClean who have been around since 1994. The Jimmy sub-brand seems relatively new, their main website jimmyglobal.com was registered in 2019. With KingClean appearing to have no presence in the western market, I assume the…

Wahoo KICKR v6 and KICKR BIKE v2 launch with WiFi priced at £1,099.99 and £3,499.99, respectively

Today, Wahoo has announced a refresh of their flagship direct drive KICKR turbo trainer and the second generation of the KICKR BIKE. There is not a great deal to announce here, both devices are identical to the previous generation, but they now have WiFi. The KICKR V5, which was launched two years ago, introduced the…

Netgear WAX615 WiFi 6 Access Point Review – 160Mhz and 2.5G Ethernet for multi-gig WiFi

I reviewed the Netgear Insight WAX610 a couple of years ago, along with the outdoor WAX610Y. Since then, Netgear has continued to expand the range of WiFi 6 access points, and they now have five options for indoors. Sitting at the top of the pack is the new WiFi 6E WAX630E. The WAX615 I am…

Cost of Running a Tumble Dryer – Cheaper than you thought when using a heat pump vs condenser or vented

Cost of Running a Tumble Dryer – Cheaper than you thought when using a heat pump vs condenser or vented

With the cost of living spiralling out of control and huge jumps in the cost of energy, I have been looking for ways to reduce costs as we approach both winter and the October price cap increase. I probably don’t need to remind any readers, but the current price cap is £1,971, this was due…

Creative Sound Blaster X1 Review – SXFi AMP gets SmartComms Kit

The Creative Sound Blaster X1 was announced in the past few weeks and is basically a smaller, more affordable version of the popular Sound Blaster X4 I reviewed last year (and the X3 prior to it). When I first saw this, I assumed it was geared towards the mobile market and that it might compete…

Nectar Premier Mattress Review vs Nectar Hybrid & Simba Hybrid Pro

Nectar Premier Mattress Review vs Nectar Hybrid & Simba Hybrid Pro

Three years ago, I reviewed the Nectar memory foam mattress. It is a superb mattress, and one of the main selling points for me was the 365-day trial and a lifetime warranty. Mattresses are an expensive investment, and their comfort is highly subjective, having a 365-day trial ensures you have a mattress that suits your…
