Gransnet Insight end of year thread: chances to win! NOW CLOSED

A test of gadgets and aids to help with arthritic/weak hands, both in the kitchen and for DIY would be good.

Product testing? I love the Mumsnet 'swears by' so would love a Gransnet one. I'd be interested in skin creams that help reduce the appearance of liver spots; shampoos and conditioners for post-perm use; toothbrushes and items such as oral irrigators and their effectiveness; handcreams; clothing that doesn't make me look like Auntie Betty nor does it make me look as mutton dressed as lamb, especially in respect of sizing as sizes are so misleading in different shops; bras and bra fitting services; I could go on and on but won't......

I would love to test the latest Echo Dot with home control

id love to test foundation. Im so pale and really struggle to find a colour that matches

I would love to see a lot more product tests and open to testing all kinds of things from beauty products, food etc to home appliances!. Looking forward to enjoying another year with Gransnet

Travel opportunities and associated insurance for the suddenly single woman /man of un age certain. I'd be more than happy to volunteer for this

Hand cream, any food at all! Books would be good including recipe books

Happy Christmas everyone

Perfumes - are the extremely expensive ones really that good or could you get by with a cheaper fragrance? How long do the cheaper fragrances last for, are they worthwhile buying or should you make an investment in an expensive one?

Some super ideas here. I'd also be keen to test family history resources and software (ties in with a planned project for the new year!). That and photo books: I love making these, but prices vary enormously and don't always seem related to quality/value. Also lightweight vacuum cleaners, effective pain relief for arthritis, orthotic insoles and thinning hair again!

Hair thinning is a good one. Also any new tech gadgets I'm a bit frightened of to see how I got on. Anything Dyson...never bought anything from them yet as not sure it's worth the price.
I would also be interested in organic products - face and also food. What about those delivery boxes with food that you cook from scratch? Up for most things really!!

I'd like to test a SEBO vacuum cleaner. I've heard they are good and of hotel quality but can't quite believe it when I look at the prices compared to Dyson for example.

I would like to test different ways of making a room smell nice. In particular, I would love to test an electric defuser to see how it compares to a simple reed diffuser.

I’ve just signed up - thanks for the opportunity.
I don’t mind testing anything at all !
Some great ideas already listed but how about Fitness trackers, supportive shoes/trainers, sat navs, anything to do with cats /dogs, hand creams for chapped hands, eyebrow treatments for thinning brows.

I would love to test shampoo and conditioner to help with hair loss due to medication

Technology products e.g. Fitbits I pads sat nav.
Also sulphate free shampoo

Would like to try any lightweight hoover to see how good they are on stairs

easter eggs

So much has been covered already. But can I add my vote to the calls for tests on wonder shampoos/treatments for thin or fine hair? There's a king's ransom awaiting the person who finds us a cure that really works.

I would love a Nintendo Switch, as my kids are fed up with the Wi, so hopefully this will get them the exercise we all need

Hair products for thinning hair please,vegetarian food and antiperspirants that really work.

Gluten free products as I live with Coeliacs

Yet another one for thinning hair (again probably due to medication). Also a good substitute for bleach as I have a lung problem and bleach aggravates it.

My husband is diabetic but has a really sweet tooth. I would love to product test sugar free sweets, chocolate, biscuits etc. The shops are full of dairy free, gluten free and wheat free etc but very little sugar free. I am happy to product test anything really

Stand mixer

Shampoo for grey hair and hairdryers that don't make your arm ache.
