Unclear how long this offer from Sync.com is available. The offer is for **existing users**, so **if you're a new user** you'd have to **do…

I received mine this afternoon. Very impressive unit in the testing this evening (we'll all find our own applications for this tablet, but…

Apart from the larger diameter and much easier height adjustment than the smaller 300mm model, I'd say "approach with care"... I have the…

Can anyone give the *depth* of the external part of this lock? The specs on the TP-Link website imply it's 60mm deep, which seems…

It's so irritating when companies can't even be bothered explaining their offers properly. On the site's page, the offer is no more…

Thanks for this comment. The Aldi stuff used to be good (equivalent to Glad), in my opinion, but my most recent bulk roll (I buy about one…

Very much a "small bank" with clunky procedures, clunky online banking, poor contact procedures, etc. I regretted moving over to them…
