Hoverboards ?
« on: 18 November 2015, 19:47:16 »

So the same conversation happens every Christmas with little omegod and I actually have an answer this year...a hoverboard ...to be fair I think she would use it a lot so don't mind spending a few quid on one. I know nothing about them and internet reviews of the different types seem to be written by the makers so not much use and there's plenty of low quality crap floating round ebay and amazon 

Does anyone's kids or grandkids have one that's proved reliable and not set the house on fire when charging, if so what type or brand was it ?

I know customs seized a load recently as they did not meet safety requirements
