BELEEV Kick Scooter Kids 3 Wheel 4 Adjustable Scooter Review

A bright pink scooter for my niece on her 3rd birthday and she loves it, my sisters daughter is either a million miles an hour or asleep and when I asked my sister what to get her for her birthday she said something to wear her out so I thought a scooter would be ideal and am pleased to say she was delighted with it.

I set it all up for her and sent my eldest daughter out to give it a run round test and show her how to use it as it was a new experience for my niece and she would have to get used to riding it which actually only took around half an hour before she was pushing herself round on it fairly confidently. The scooter really is bright pink her favourite colour and all the wheels light up great while in motion, adjustment is very simple with it locking tightly in place with the push release holding pin and securing with the twist grip on the handle. The main handle pushes in and locks in place with another push release holding pin which is very solid.

It arrived in a nicely branded wedge shaped box with all the contents being protected with bubble wrap, the instructions book is very basic but more than adequate as the assembly is very simple and somewhat obvious, I have added a short video and will also add some pictures showing the unboxing, assembly, my daughter giving it a good test run round then I showed the wheel lights in the darks as you can’t really see them on the video from the top view.

• ADJUSTABLE HANDLEBARS: Our kids scooter design with adjustable height handlebar, T-bar and Upgraded Lifting Lock can adjust from 24" to 34" from the deck. 4 adjustable height settings to accommodate ages 3 to 12 years old, suitable for 33" to 63" height.
• PU LUMINOUS WHEELS: The kick scooter features 2 big front LED wheels and small rear LED wheels, which are bright enough to see during the day and are really neat at night. Lights get brighter the faster you go with our Magnetic Core Wheels. Protects the wooden floor from scratch.
• TURN & STOP EASILY: Flexible and lightweight design offers better control turning and keep balance easily by your child's physical incline. Large aluminum reinforced rear-wheel foot brake is easy to stop the scooter quickly when tread, and prevent muddy water from splattering on your kids back legs.
• SAFE & COMFORTABLE: The toddler scooter comes equipped with non-slip deck, unique 3 PU high-rebound wheels and ABEC-7 bearings, make the children scooter glide stably, smoothly and quietly, even ride on the rough ground. Providing an extra level of safety and comfort so they can ride all day long.
• REINFORCED & WIDE DECK: The kick scooter features streamlined new deck design, sturdy enough to hold up to 120lbs. The deck is low-to-the-ground, making it easy for little kids to hop on and off. Large enough to place Both Feet on the deck, kids can switch from pushing to enjoy the ride.

Overall this is a nice little scooter very well made and sturdy, ideal for a small child and with the adjustable handle should last them a good few years as they grow, the wheels are nice solid rubber, the lights look great and best of all my niece loves it although I am not sure it’s wearing her out much she’s still into everything and everything at a million miles an hour :)

NETGEAR GS205-100UKS 5 Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch Review

Easy to set up and ideal for my intended use, I have been using a Belkin version for several years but it had been playing up for a few weeks dropping connections and getting very hot so I decided it was time to change it.

I didn’t need anything too big or with masses of ports as it is just used as an extension to my smart TV, Android box, Satellite TV box and a hardwire link for plugging in my wife’s laptop when she needs a windows update or something transferring off my main desktop PC and this looked ideal. Setup is simple and just a case of plugging everything in and it’s done depending on your setup, for me it was just a case of switching out the old and in with the new.

The box is nice and compact and everything is well finished, the light indicators work as they should showing activity on each port when in use, the box has no internal fan but even after being on all day it is just warm so no issues with that, the speed seems good, solid and consistent through all ports when I gave them all a file transfer test.

I have added a short video and will also add some pictures just showing the unboxing and then plugging in all the network cables, overall I am very pleased with this purchase it is ideal for replacing my old one at a reasonable price and I would certainly recommend it.

• Five 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet ports, up to 10x faster than fast Ethernet for maximum performance
• Small and silent desktop form factor with fan-less design for quiet operation
• Plug-n-play connectivity easily installs into any network
• LED to indicate activity on each port and energy-efficient technology for power savings
• Auto-negotiation for automatic connection at high common speed between switch and an end device

Jelly Comb Keyboard and Mouse Set

Solid and simple wireless keyboard and mouse set, I have been using a Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse set now for a couple of years and it works well but has a couple of really annoying things about it for me, it has a top set of keys that can be used to control music and film DVD’s, volume controls and the power to the PC. I have no doubt many find these additional keys very useful but for me they are a real pain as I often hit the PC power button when picking it up or knocking it thus switching off the PC, the other thing that irritates me is it uses two AAA batteries in the back and if I knock it hard the cover comes off and they tumble out, I must sound really clumsy and maybe I am but decided it was time for a change.

This set looked ideal as it does not have the additional control keys on the top so no danger of accidently pressing them and it takes a single AA battery that goes under a dummy key on the top of the keyboard which slides open then locks in place also a good point to pick the keyboard up without pressing any keys. Setting it up was simple plug and play inserting the wireless dongle into a USB port on my PC and it was instantly recognised (running Windows 10).

The mouse is a simple design with a centre wheel for scrolling, fits nicely in my hand and works flawlessly, I really like the keyboard with a solid base that also has flip up plastic stands to use at an angle, good positive keys so you know the typing has registered and a neat design battery compartment in the top that becomes invisible once the battery is inserted and covered.

• Reliable connection - A tiny nano-receiver connects both the keyboard and mouse via 2.4 GHz using just one USB port, keeping more ports open for other uses; wireless connectivity with a range of up to 10m; plug & play, no need to install a driver
• Comfort - Enables more comfortable typing experience with low-profile quiet-touch keys; the palm rest and removable feet create a slope for a more comfortable wrist posture
• Energy-Saving - The battery status indicator glows red when the battery is running low and the keyboard will go to auto-sleep without use; it will be switched off automatically when the nano-receiver disconnects from the computer
• Elegant Feature - Gorgeous White+Grey color, Sleek keyboard and mouse combo with low profile whisper-quiet keys delivering comfortable and smooth typing; keys customized for Windows for easy access to applications and media controls
• What in Box - 1* 2.4Ghz British Layout Wireless Mouse Keyboard Combo, 1*USB Receiver, 1*User Manual

Summary

***********
Overall I really like this keyboard, it isn’t an all singing and dancing keyboard with buttons for everything but that is not what I want or ever use, it has a simple but nice design, works without any messing about and does the intended job perfectly.
