I am getting a bit confused here? Nothing new there, but summat seems to have rattled my cage?????

So for those of us who are not computer savey or literate, we have no chance of ever getting a freebie, YES? Personally, I think the whole set-up is flawed. Considering that those with ''quickest fingers'' will always get the product on offer, what chance are there for the likes of myself who have to look three or four times to be sure I am pressing the right button/key? By the time I press the right key, Billy King would have received his freebie by post. Says a lot, innit?

Where is the fairness? A better option would be to get all those interested to make their interest known by replying to the freebie post. After say a week, Ray can draw lucky winners out of the hat. Ok, this may involve more time and effort, (which Ray or his staff don't have), but it gives more chances to more of us. What if you were at work when the offer goes live? By the time you notice it, it's long gone. I'm gutted.

VI, do a search in the arms for the ideal vogue freebie. It's about a million pages long.

Toys.pram.sore loser.
 
Me thinks Raymondo may do it this way to avoid favouritism claims.......if its any consolation i keep missing the list aswell........i like to think i will win something REALLY worth getting for free.
 
Also probably easier logistically.

Do you have a Williams log on VI? If not it would be a start!

i didn't realise you'd sneaked in through the fire escape. Erm, welcome to the arms..
 
Woo and double hoo! Mine arrived this morning!

Along with a packet of out of date liquorice allsorts..... but that jokes backfired on ray cos i'm eating them anyway!
 
They were probably in date when they left, the wee horse and cart courier took its time, so he did, to be sure to be sure...
 
Thanks Kay Jay just registered but need verifying as not GSR. OH Ray, where are youooo?
 
Has anyone fitted their Jollytronic yet?

I've got their sales director camped on the review section of the forum ... :)
 
Mine was going in yesterday. Fresh packet of batteries and all. Until I found my fresh packet of batteries was empty. Will be trying again tonight. Bought a fresh packet today.
 
Mine's going in this weekend. Didn't fit either of my loo's so Mrs C made me go get a new CC pan and cistern for it.

This freebie's cost me a fortune!

I'll gloss over that bit though if the next packet of sweeties are in date.........
 
Here come the excuses, part timers! Village idiot would've used his by now #justsayin...
 
I've fitted 3 loos since this offer came up! All suitable to use this device!

Just saying Ray............
 
Hi Ray, I fitted mine yesterday thanks to you and to Wirquin for the chance to get and review it.
For the install its a pretty standard easy flush valve to install, although in saying that the quality of the pictures is really bad. In my mind it would be better to give diagrams rather than poor resolution pictures. The valve itself seems decent quality.
Major plus for me was that it came with a new universal close coupled kit, was surprised to find that.
I like the fact it came with a new fov but I think maybe an option without one would be good too.
Bad points are n batteries!! come on we're plumbers and plumbers merchants don't stock batteries! someone else has mentioned this in a previous post and it's also the reason it took me so long to fit it.
The really bad feature for me is the actual push button mechanism itself, that silicone ring is going to get manky after awhile, it's quite a bad feature, it looks cheap and nasty to me! why not secure the mechanism like a standard push button ??? and the colour I would imagine this product would appeal to someone who's superclean and clinical so I'd imagine for them, this lid would be a huge no no.
conclusion for me is, that this is a good product in general but because of the push button mechanism aesthetics I wouldn't put another one in my house

waaooow!!! Even I would 'av sent Ray a PM about my concerns so he can forward to manufacturer. But I suppose the whole point of a review is to say it as you see it.
 
Thanks Clive.

I have created a new thread on the "product review" section and copied your review onto it (because in the Arms the manufacturer and public can't see it).

Its pre-moderated so may not appear for a while.

Thanks again for being constructive, even if critical. :)

Reviews have to be honest and open. There's no point in only listening to good news.

I think it's a very clever product, but just don't like the button that's all
