Review of Zwift


Rated 5 out of 5 stars

For more than just the offseason

I've been using Zwift since 2015. Prior to that, indoor workouts were DVDs and dumb trainers that you manually changed the resistance on, and they were a drag. The short version of this review is that Zwift is a robust community where you can find everything from structured workouts and racing, to short and long (100 mile) group rides where folks motivate each other to do their best. The software works with a vast array of devices and makes it easy to get your miles in without having to gear up and head outdoors--or to prepare for your rides outdoors.

My go-to for shipping frames

My go-to for shipping frames, wheels and bikes. I appreciate how their web interface is set up to easily calculate rates and get my labels.

Review of Rugs Direct


Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Rugs direct is the everyman's houzz for area rugs

Rugs direct is kind of like the everyman's houzz--there are enough designer choices to feel like you're not in some bargain basement style-free zone, but importantly, there are affordable options to fill out your floor spaces without breaking the bank.

The entire process of checkout through tracking to delivery was smooth and quick.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

Products and prices are fine but shipping is not

Being well ranked in google you might be fooled into thinking that this .com site is like any other but it's not. If you're American and you're used to two-day shipping from most shops get prepared for 2-4 WEEKS with no tracking number.

If this is literally the only place you can find something and you're not in a rush go for it, or if you live in the UK you're fine, but once you cross the pond there is an unavoidable and massive drop in customer experience.
