Advantages: Easy price comparison

Disadvantages: Brain needed - cheaper isn't always best

No-one likes paying over the odds for something, and in this time when it's easier to make purchases online everyone wants the biggest bargain they can get. Kelkoo is very handy for those who need to do a bit of price-checking. Type in the item you're looking for, search, and bingo, a list of prices. You get what you want cheap, Kelkoo get a pay off from your click through, how much easier can you get? They now even list postage to make it even easier to calculate.

A couple of warnings before use however.

On your initial search, while Kelkoo will list manufacturers and prices, they will not be sorted in order of price. Manufacturers pay Kelkoo to be listed higher on that initial search so make sure you do sort by price before making a choice.

Use your brain and remember 'cheap' does not always go hand in hand with 'reputable'. As someone who handed over her card details to a company she'd never heard of because their washing machine was a whole £5 cheaper (fortunately they vanished BEFORE taking my cash) this is an important lesson. Do your research on any company you buy from - even check dooyoo to check what the reviews are like. Cheap is not cheap if you never get what you paid for.

Summary: Do a bit of research and it's a handy tool
