These glasses = WIN.” Mai Tai Glasses

We’ve had a bit of a break but people have been missing our Funny Friday Reviews so much that we’ve brought them back early. Here are some of the more humorous reviews over on Reevoo

Possibly the strangest gadget ever. It’s got a rating of 9.1/10 on Reevoo from a whopping 67 reviews and everyone raves about it. But what is it??

It’s a Zoundz. An “Interactive Fusion Of Light And Sound”. Well there you go then.

For those of you who are still none the wiser, it’s a base unit that comes with a variety of figures. Each figure, when placed on the unit in different positions, plays a different beat or riff – so you can create your own classic tunes.

You can then use your tunes to wake you up by using its alarm function or you can play your iPod through its built-in speakers. It’ll even give you a nice light show at the same time.

People really are quite literally raving about this thing. Here are some of the reviews:

“Quite simply the best present I have ever purchased for anyone ever!”
“it is simp[ly], the best fun you can have with your clothes on”
“Very cool addictive gadget - a must have”
“A very silly way for even the most ham-fisted numpty to make music”

There are more Zoundz reviews here, if you want to get caught up in the madness. You can pick one up for around £15 but funnily enough, they’re out of stock in both the Gadgetshop and Firebox and Amazon!

We’ll let you know when they’re back.

Something to giggle about on this grey Friday…

"When I put it on the ground and sit on it, it doesn’t fly. I have tried all the magic words that I have ever heard of, and even made up some of my own, but without success.

"Instructions could have been clearer (but I am a woman)" Caramel Blind
