Bben Ultra Slim 14 inch Laptop Computer with Windows 10 Review

My daughter is 11 years old and has just completed her SATs (Standard Assessment Tests), she will be moving up to the secondary school or big school as my generation called it but apparently now it is “high school” no doubt another adaptation from America. We wanted and somewhat felt we needed to get her a laptop or notepad computer as they get their homework assignments online along with being a great research resource we decided to get it now so she will be fully ready and familiar with the computer.

We quickly decided a full on laptop would be too heavy and bulky for her to ship around so finally decided on the Bben Ultra Slim 14 inch our main reasons being it was under 1.8 kilograms had a nice brushed metal finish my daughter approved of, reasonable price, 13.7mm thickness, it has an Intel processor rather than AMD which I have personally had issues with, maybe bad luck but enough to put me off them, had a good battery life and came ready to go with Windows 10.

It arrived in a branded flip top box with power lead and an instruction booklet, the instructions are not really needed as Windows 10 walks you through the setup after switching it on although you should be prepared for a few hours of downloading and installing Windows 10 updates, not something unique to this as anything you buy will need the same and it something that is mandatory with Windows 10. After it had finished updating I went through personalising it and testing all the features ready for my daughter.

The bootup is very quick and the touch pad very responsive but due to me being stuck in my ways I wanted to fit a wireless mouse to it for setting everything up which I was pleased to see was plug and play working instantly, I installed Google chrome as a preference to the standard edge browser supplied with Windows and did some surfing going through a few websites testing sound and graphics all displaying perfectly and videos along with live TV playing flawlessly. The keypad is very nice positive touch buttons rather than keys you don’t know if it has registered or not and the screen display is really crisp and clear. It comes with a few things pre-installed which are easy enough to remove if you don’t want then.

I installed Avast a free virus protection and a few other programs my daughter wanted and everything runs great, we have told her it’s not for playing games on and this is not the intention of us buying it for her but I did test out a couple to see how smoothly they ran as it’s a fairly good test and again they ran smoothly, I installed a computer testing program from Novabench and even after a few hours use without reboot it gave very good results.

Inofia UK King Mattress 5FT Mattress 3D Breathable Fabric Review

My old mattress had seen better days and I have been having lower back problems for quite a while, my wife had got an over mattress I think it was called which sat on top of our original mattress but it really was a waste of money being way too soft and if anything making my back worse so it was time for a new mattress.

After having a good look round I decided this looked ideal with the claim of 7-zone spring systems that are scientifically proven to align the spine and directly combat back aches and pains I thought it could help improve my back. The mattress arrived in a big and very heavy box with the mattress being tightly sealed in a vacuum packed plastic having a little plastic release knife that avoided damaging the surface when opening.

Once I ran the opening tool down the seam the mattress instantly expanded into full size and easily slid into place, the quality looked very nice and it felt very solid so I made the bed up ready for a night’s sleep, I had not realised how bad my old mattress had got until I started using this one and the difference was like chalk and cheese, the mattress is not too soft and not too hard it sort of hugs your body without you sinking into it if that makes sense.

I have been using the Inofia mattress for a month now and it really is superb, my back pain has eased off considerable and I am getting a good uninterrupted night’s sleep, my wife who was very dubious about it even more so when she saw it arrived in a long box rather than flat is now completely convinced in its quality and attributes.

Overall I am very pleased with this mattress and it certainly delivers great quality, I don’t understand all the technical aspects such as having a 7-zone spring system or pocket springs and how they work but I really don’t need to as long as it works and it does, it’s comfortable and very supportive and I would not hesitate to recommend it especially to anyone having back issues like mine.

Despite the elaborate design, the pocketed coils can still be folded and shipped right to door.
