Customer Review: Poor information
I guess this an electrical item rather than a petrol driven uint but it does not say. It says 2500 watts so I guess it is mains powered - if so you’d think they would say something about the power cord e.g. how long it is and if it is earthed or not!

Customer Review: Poignant Drama With Intrigue And Humor
Enid Bagnold’s play, directed for the big screen by Ronald Neame in 1964, is a touching story about a mystery woman, Madrigal (Deborah Kerr) who answers an ad for a companion for a teenage girl. But this is no prim and proper young English lady - Laurel (Hayley Mills) is a troubled youth who resides with her wealthy grandmother (wonderfully portrayed by Dame Edith Evans, who plays a crusty aristocratic Briton like no one can), and who spins lies, sets fires and steals without a thought to consequences. Obsessed with murder and criminal cases, she is accustomed to having her own way, and sets out to expose her new governess as a madwoman or something worse. Despite the child’s negative attitude, Kerr stays on, trying to reach out to Laurel, who in reality, feels so unloved and unworthy that her anger could get her into deep trouble later on. Miss Madrigal attempts to bring Laurel’s mother, Olivia (Elizabeth Sellars) back into the picture, but this only adds to the tension within the household. Maitland (Sir John Mills), the butler, seems to have an uncanny understanding of all the goings on and a wry sense of humor that most likely keeps him from blowing a gasket. Laurel begins to unravel Madrigal’s secret, which comes full circle when a distinguished judge and family friend comes for a visit. The realization of her conviction for murder (it is never really confirmed whether she was guilty of the crime or not), serves as a reason as to why she has been so determined to save Laurel - she fears that the girl will end up on the same path she did. Madrigal opens the eyes of all around her - “You should be frightened - you see before you the woman Laurel may yet become! The child who lied, cheated and hated, because she could not believe the simple fact that she was loved! You wanted the truth - and the truth may still save Laurel!” I cannot stress enough that the cast is uniformly excellent, bringing the film’s message to the viewer’s attention without bashing them on the head with it. Hayley and her late father act marvelously together, and Kerr embodies her role with such mystery, knowledge and concern that you never feel any malice for her, even after her past is revealed. An expressive musical score, lovely cinematography, both on location in England and at London’s Pinewood Studios, as well as the intrigue surrounding Kerr’s character make for a fantastically rich viewing experience.
Customer Review: Good Melodrama, But Something is Missing …
Hayley Mills does a good job of milking all the emotion there is to be milked from the furious, histrionic teenager she plays in the *Chalk Garden*, and I always enjoy Deborah Kerr in her repressed governess-type roles. But a lot of their interaction just rings hollow, somehow–maybe because Mills is so insufferably bratty that it’s hard to believe Kerr isn’t moved to, at the very least, occasional bouts of unconstrained rage. Indeed, Kerr is so prim and controlled that one tends to question the movie’s basic premise–i.e., that Kerr was just like Mills at that age. The upshot is that the script’s dramatic potential never fully unfolds. My instinct is to blame this on the direction of Ronald Neame, whose work has always struck me as competent but uninspired. This is a gritty story that should have been told grittily, but, except from Mills, there’s hardly a speck of grit anywhere. All that said, this movie remains a worthwhile conversation piece, one that I think is genuinely useful to an understanding of early 1960s’ female pathos. Mills’ character seems hopelessly torn between the only two models of girlhood available–the “nice,” well-mannered girl who never speaks out of turn, and the “bad” girl careening towards a terrible end. Mills clearly doesn’t belong where the “bad” girls go–i.e., jail, or someplace even worse–but just being a “nice” girl will never be enough. The solution the movie offers to Mills’s problem–maternal love and understanding–is too easy, to be sure, for in reality there is probably no solution at all. But the script’s insistence upon finding a happy ending, and redemption for both Mills and Kerr, is revolutionary nonetheless; here, finally, is a movie about rebelious women who don’t die at the end. Four stars, mostly for social commentary and discussion value.

About Victorinox
In 1884, Swiss cutler Karl Elsener set up shop in Ibach-Schwyz, installing a waterwheel in Tobelbach Brook to run his grinding and polishing machines. Thus began what would become the international brand name Victorinox, a combination of Victoria, for Elsener’s mother, and “inox,” or stainless steel. Today, Victorinox produces watches, luggage, clothing, and, famously, Swiss Army Knives. The forerunner of that name dates to 1897, when Elsener patented the Swiss Officer’s and Sports Knife he supplied to the Swiss Army. Following World War II, American servicemen and women shopping in PX stores shortened the name to Swiss Army Knife, which lives on in English-speaking countries around the world and has become a metaphor or versatility.

Customer Review: BigWheel perfect for our special needs!
We have been looking for a big wheel for our son, he’s 5 and has Autism. We had been having a ton of trouble on a regular bicycle because of the breaks… and the overall pressure needed to push… but this Radio Flyer BigWheel has been a great help with our son’s overall occupational therapy… he is now a happy “pedaler” and well on his way to a bigger bike. It’s adjustable seat made me very happy… and it seems very durable! Great BigWheel that helped us to bigger and better things!
Customer Review: My 3 year old loves this!!!!
My son is very hard on his Big Wheels. In fact, he has gone through 2 Big Wheels. Because he skids, or his sister stands on it behind the seat when he is driving (isn’t that how you are supposed to ride it??), he always flattens the Big Wheel tire and or it literally cracks. This Radio Flyer ‘big wheel’ is much more stylish, much easier to put together, and feels/looks stronger. While he only got it one month ago, I don’t see the tell-tale flattening of the front wheel. All my kids love the flag (so much easier to spot him!) and the ‘real metal’ handle bars. He loves it!! Should’ve bought this 2 Big Wheels ago.

Customer Review: What? It’s over…
This scooby doo game is very fun even for an 11 year old. In this mystery, the monsters are not even criminals! There’re high-tech robots controlled by a human villan. This game has a down side. It’s short. There are only three major levels. The only thing you do after beating the level is to go back for items, then the area becomes easy for you. Overall I would rent the game.
Customer Review: Pretty good
This Scooby game is not as good as Mystery Mayhem was but I think it might be better that Night of 100 Frights. Kinda in the middle. I rented it and I’ll probably buy it when I can. I just hope the next Scooby game is more like Mystery Mayhem was.
