If you have the money, go for it
Bosch Avantixx Frontloader 60 cm width WAS24460IN

I also got this washing machine installed today. I could check the machine vibration, noise levels, build quality etc - which is very good. However, the technician told me that the water pressure required is a bit high for this machine compared to the other machine and will show an error e17. Also i...t does not store the program in memory if the power goes off - which might be a problem where the power cuts are quite frequent as in our state.Read More

May not be a good value for money

After having a Sony, Nikon low end(digital) cameras, I was searching all the web to find out a new good high end camera(-with a higher pixel and HD capability for video) but a compact type. Based on the good reviews of Panasonic Lumix DMC - ZR3 I decided to go in for that. However, the dealer w...Read more

The most unreliable netbook

I bought this netbook on seeing its sleekness.    The plus points are its light weight, high battery support (almost lasts for 4 to 5 hours after a good charging.The negative points are that the system is very very slow on start up.  It takes almost (incredible) 6 minutes to come to a workable s...Read more

X620 -a good one

I bought this cell phone some 6 months ago at Rs.7000/- and I thought it to be a good value for money since it has camera and a fm radio along with the basic cell phone utiliy. The clarity of the camera is very good but the dificulty is in tranferring the pictures to your pc. But the number o...Read more

A super-luxury car
Opel Corsa 1.6 GLS

I also own a corsa 1.6GLS - from April 2004 and I also have similar experiences. Regular services every 5000 km seems to be a bit costly. I had to pay around Rs. 4000 for the last 20000km service.

High maintenance, poor service
Eureka Forbes Aquaguard i-Nova Water Purifier

I do have similar experience with this aqua guard. It used to stop delivering water every week and we have to really drag the service person inspite of the maintenance contract.

Nothing more than a toy
Che-ez RAP

I was planning to buy this since the price of this has now fallen to Rs.1500/- But I was wondering on how to trust such products from the net mall - now it is quite clear that there are problems as anticipated. Thanks drbaburaj.

Your idea of opening the region lock is excellant. But I read somewhere that this should not be repeated more than twice - the sw permanently locks the whole system.

Opel corsa 1.6GLS - my further experiences
Opel Corsa 1.6 GLS

I have wrongly edited the main review when I was posting my further experiences. My first experience was the tough chassis - 0.8mm sheet against 0.4mm of other makes which makes it tough and heavy. Though it makes one safe, it takes up more fuel to carry that weight . KKV

Buy 1.6 liter if you have to.
Opel Corsa 1.4 GSI

The Corsa 1.6GLS mileage is poor. I get only 10 to 10.5 km/l inspite of a retuning after 5000 km ; I have already done 10000 km on this but still the mileage is poor. Otherwise the vehicle is good.

Chalati ka naam gaadi--Opel Corsa 1.4
Opel Corsa 1.4 GSI

I have a corsa 1.6GLS version. I agree with the review - but the problem with this 1.6GLS is the mileage - it gives 10 to 10.5 kmph only. Otherwise it is really a rugged vehicle. Anyone knows how to increase the mileage??

Opel Corsa 1.6 GLS

Reply to 'criticalanalysis' Mitsubishi Lancer infact has lost their charm now-a-days against Honda city and the Corsa. If you have another lakh of rupees to spend more, you can opt for the New Honda city which has almost similar features like Corsa except for the sheet thickness; Also the... mileage on New Honda city is high (around 19km/pl on an average). I went in for Corsa (against Honda city) because of the Budget. New Honda city will cost around 7.2 akhs on road for the basic model and 7.9 kahs on the delux model. (The deluxe model is the one with plush seat covers, cd system, drivers height adjustment - otherwise same). If the budget is tight and if you like a Hatchback you can go in for a Corsa sail or Corsa. The looks are better on that.Read More
