Hi,
The alternative is?
If you're not happy with it send it back. The RNIB will argue the build
quality Vs cost. Bottom-line you only get what you pay for. We're always
complaining about the cost of Adaptive Technology. The Goodmans is OK in-terms
of features but this is what we get when we pay a lower price.
Anyone tried one of those £600 units I remember hearing something about, about
a year back.
Regards,
Barry.
