I\u2019m a fanatical about it, reading the ones on Amazon<\/a> just for the sake of it (I know, I know I need a life), and definitely scouring reviews on everything from kitchen equipment to clothes, toys and books before I buy anything.\n\nIt\u2019s one of the reasons why I rate online shopping over high street shopping. Reviews give you a very clear view of something before you hand over your hard earned cash and as it’s not coming from an interested party it tends to be a pretty honest view.\n\n

Is this the best teething toy ever?<\/p><\/div>\n\nOf course, you have to find reviews you can trust. Reading ones recently on a gadget site I realised that it was pointless reading the reviews of X Box over Wii as most of the reviews came from teenage boys eager to play Call Of Duty.\n\nWhich is why I totally trust the reviewers on Marks and Spencer<\/a>, and Amazon<\/a>. Not only are these reviewers measured, and amusing, but they also tend to be parents shopping for a good deal like me. Reading their reviews not only saves me time and money but has also stopped most of my online shopping rage (online shopping rage = products arriving that in no way resembles what I was viewing online).\n\nHowever, my all time favourite site for reviews is Boden<\/a>. On this site not only do the reviewers tell you what a product is like from the material to the make, they also tell you their size and shape, so you can get a clear idea of whether the review is any use to you or not.\n\nWhich leads me nicely to the Living With Kids Product Reviews Page<\/strong>. We\u2019re planning on creating a new reviews page for parents, covering everything from necessities such as highchairs and teething toys to beauty products, new foods, toys and household gadgets, and we need YOU<\/strong> to help us.\n\nIf you think you could be a LWK reviewer and help give other parents your views on a product related to family life we\u2019d love to hear from you.\n\nAll you have to do is comment below or drop me a line at anita@livingwithkids.co.uk<\/a>, telling me how old your kids, how we can get in touch with you, areas of interest and bingo – you can be one of our reviewers.\n\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hands up if you read product reviews before you buy?
