As I was in search of handbag I went to a nearby shopping complex "phoenix" mall.I found a shop that claim to have authentic bags  at a low price which was of the brand Baggit .Before purchasing the bag I asked if the bags were really legit and they assured me that it was.





I found an orange colored bag really attractive.so I went ahead and bought the bag for the price of Rs 1500/- .But later when i started using it everyday i found that the bag was not of good quality and the handle flap tore apart .The skin of the bag started coming out and it was not in a good condition to use.So I prefer not to buy any products from Baggit brand.

I will rate it 5/10.

PRO'S

*  Attractive color
* Good collections
* Comfortable to use it.

CON'S

*  Bad quality
*  Price is not reasonable

Philips Hair Straightener

I was fed up with my fizzy hair so i was looking for a hair straightener. I have heard a lot about excessive heat being bad for hair, but having curly hair, I have always dreamt of getting straight hair. Eventually, I bought one straightener from Philips I didn’t get any heat protectant along with this straightener.
           This hair straightener has a clean finish and is light weight that makes it convenient to carry and store. The heat penetrates into the hair and gives a better hairdo with a glossy finish.
The first time that I had used this straightener, I shampooed and conditioned my hair. This tool cannot be used on wet hair, so you have to ensure that your hair is thoroughly dry. After my hair had dried completely, I partitioned and removed tangles from my hair.





When you switch on the straightener, there is a green light that switches on and it automatically switches off after a certain time.I started using it and I ran the straightener patiently through each section. After the process, I had lovely straight hair and I was supremely happy with the straightener. The kind of straightening it did on my hair, was to my satisfaction.

PRO's:

*  Comes from the trusted brand “Philips.”
*   Price is quite reasonable.
*   straightens hair effectively.
*    2-years warranty.

CON'S:

*  Cannot be used on wet hair .

Snap Deal Waste of Time


I have always loved wrist watches, so when a newly launched website offered watches, which are really stylish at affordable prices I thought of giving it a shot. I went ahead and ordered 3 watches from the site.
When, I ordered the watches I never knew I was in for a nightmare. I received the watches quickly and without and problems. But, when I opened the case I was in for a rude shock. The watches looked and felt nothing like a good quality watch is supposed to. The straps felt as if were made of plastic and would come apart any second. When, I wore the black formal watch and turned my wrist the glass of the face just fell out and smashed. I was shocked to see that happen in a brand new watch. I made up my mind to give a complaint to the customer care department.
I tried on the second watch on which the metal loop was disfigured, which caused scratches all over the strap. Now, was I really angry about quality of the watches given.
I sent and e-mail to the customer care department but there was no response from them.  Please, don’t waste your money buying these watches there are not worth your time.

Hersh Hemant

Pros :

None

Cons:


You don’t get what you paid for.
Quality is horrible.
No response from customer services department.

eBay Water Bottles like never before.

Going for hikes in nature is something I enjoy. But, one thing that I always used to find difficult was carrying water bottles, as it occupies a lot of space and are heavy. So, when I saw a fold-able bottle on eBay I went ahead and bought it. I got the bottle in just four days. It was a fantastic buy the plastic is of the very best quality and there is no leakage even when the bottle is squeezed. It was heavenly not to heavy easy to hold, and when empty just fold and slip in your pocket.

Always get your money’s worth.
So, many good options.
Products, well perform as described.

Cons :
None I can think of.

AS SHOWN ON TV Star Cj electrolux oven

As I am a food freak, so i love cooking when I am and always wanted to grill and barbecue chicken at home for my family and friends. So one day looked at this ad in a t.v channel which is named STAR CJ, saw an oven which had this option of grilling the food as well. The oven looked interesting and good in the t.v ad, the product is of the company Electrolux which is from a very renowned company in the market. So then I found it interesting to buy and the price was also very reasonable and worthy of buying the oven for that price. Went ahead booked for the oven, which got delivered in 3 days as they had said. The packaging was done in a safe and neat way, product looked exactly the same as it was shown in the ad.

A demo was given to me of the oven. Then i went ahead and started cooking food in the oven it came out really well and was also cooked properly. After a few days I thought of preparing grilled chicken as it had the option of grilling, and here the chicken didn't get grilled at all it got fried into small pieces and it wasn't grilled. So the grill part in this oven just doesn't work, option of grilling is just a waste and rest and everything is good.

I rate it a 7/10.

Pros:

->Reasonable price.
->Fits anywhere in the kitchen.
->Right time delivery, good packaging and handling.
->Got a lot of free stuff as well.

Cons:

->Grill option doesn't work properly.
->Doesn't cook properly when there is a lot.    

Sanjeev Kapoor Diamond Coated Pan

Having a passion for cooking, I always used to idolize Sanjeev Kapoor. So, when on Starcj.com I see a product that was being personally endorsed by Sanjeev Kapoor. I just had to have it. I ordered the product immediately. The delivery was fast no doubt and the product looked and felt fantastic from the start.
The Original Which was Sent
It also came with a one year warranty but, just after a few months the pan started getting bubbles in the
The replacement which was sent.

coating and then coating started peeling off.

 Alarmed by this I contacted WonderChef who asked me to send the invoice and the pictures of the damage. They did respond stating that they will send a replacement for the product, which was good. But, when I finally got the product I was shocked to see the product looked different which is okay. But, then the feel of the pan was not the same as the original. Also, it already had a small scratch on the rim. And, after just one use the base colour started coming off.

I again gave a complaint regarding the same. I did receive a call back from the WonderChef and it was communicated to me that the coloured base pan had received customer complaints. And, I was told that the product will be replaced with a new one which can be used on induction stoves as well. But, LO and BEHOLD when I finally got the product it was the same that I was told they had got customer’s complaint. Even, when I told them that I do not need freebies just give me a pan that works. I was given junk.

I rate them 2/10 it is not worth the inconvenience that it causes.

Pros :
The coating looks and feels fantastic.
The food will not stick whatsoever even without oil.
Comes, with freebies.

Cons :
The coating will not last for a very long time.
Cannot, use the pans on induction.

The replacement takes 2 to 3 weeks to reach you.

www.tradus.com Clyd Henley T-Shirts Pack Of 3 Review.

Tradus.com is a nice website. Well as i a was online and planning to shop for some t-shirts. I looked everywhere around like flipkart.com and jabong.com. Few of the websites where good. The products were also really nice. But that did not fit my budget. I came across Tradus.com and i planned to buy Pack of 3 henley t-shirts.

Pack of 3 (Grey,White and Black)


So as this product as priced at 899 INR. That sounded like a pretty good deal for me. I ordered this product.

I dont know how the back end works. Or how Tradus.com works. The delivery too 4 extra days to reach me. Well if you see it has a one day delivery option.

But for some odd reason it was delayed for 3 days.

When the shipment arrived it was nicely packed and i paid as it was cash on delivery. When i opened the pack there were only 2 T-shirts in there. And it was very poorly packed. I used those t-shirts for a month or 2. Now they have shrieked to a even smaller size.

I ordered small because that was my size. And now i use this pack of 3 henley t-shirts as nightwear.

CONS

1. Not delivered on time.
2. The packing was shabby.
3. Shipment included only 2 in a pack.
4. COD is very convenient. Please check your product before paying.

PROS

1. T-shirts were very confirmable to wear before they shrink.

RATINGS:
