StreamR, by Pure

The StreamR portable speaker, by Pure, claims to bring together the best of Bluetooth streaming, digital radio and Alexa voice technology. This is basically three devices in one, with a whole host of functions that are, for the most part, easy and straightforward to select. Like any device with multiple purposes on offer, you need to learn your way around the StreamR, but Pure has done a great job of trying to make this as simple and user-friendly a little speaker as possible.

Specialized Torch 3.0

Specialized was created in 1974 by a cyclist for cyclists and produces everything from pedal-powered bikes to electric bikes and a wide range of accessories from the helmets on your head  down to socks on your feet. The Torch 3.0 are specialist road shoes with the main goal being to produce a high end shoe full of features at a price that was reasonable. Well the price is probably going to still put a few people off, but these are definitely a top of the range shoe.

Globus Group Gloves

It won’t come as a surprise that your fingers are one of the most sensitive parts of the body, I mean paper cuts and hangnails aren’t serious wounds, but wow, they can hurt, and as we use our hands for, well, everything, it is vitally important we protect them when performing dangerous tasks. We received five different gloves from Globus Group who specialise in creating hand protection and we will be looking at each pair in turn.

ROIDMI X20

There is this wonderful moment in one of the Harry Potter books when Professor Dumbledore cleans up an entire room with the wave of a wand, I could enjoy cleaning more if you could do everything in one clean swoop. I’m not saying the ROIDMI X20 is magic or can fix broken ornaments and remove dragon blood from your walls, but it can vacuum and mop up your floor in one go, leaving you more time to watch movies about wizards.

Montane Trailblazer 30

The trailblazer 30 from Montane is a close-fitting, lightweight multi-day pack, weighing in at approximately 800g, it is available in either Electric Blue or Charcoal, as the name suggests it has a 30-litre storage capacity, designed for rapid, long-distance mountain trails with its low weight, stability and quick access to your gear.

Mira Advance Shower (8.7kW)

If you feel you have a handle on life there’s nothing like trying to use someone else’s shower to remind you that you are basically a monkey whacking a coconut against the floor trying to get in. Some showers have so many dials, knobs and buttons it looks more like a cockpit of a plane instead of something to wash the filth off. The Mira Advance Shower has been designed in such a simple, intuitive way that anyone can use it first time…even with a hangover.
