Next, if you're hoping for a hoverboard for Christmas, | :00:18. | :00:32. | |
Experts are warning that some of them aren't well made, | :00:33. | :00:37. | |
Hoverboards, segways, self balancing scooters, | :00:38. | :00:51. | |
whatever you want to call them, they are one of the most popular | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
gifts being asked for this Christmas. | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
I want a hoverboard so I can reach my destination quickly. I am getting | :00:58. | :01:04. | |
a hoverboard for Christmas, because a lot of famous people have it, such | :01:05. | :01:13. | |
as Tiger and Justin Bieber. You can show your own style to people. | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
But Trading Standards, an organisation that makes sure that | :01:17. | :01:18. | |
products are safe for people to use, have taken away more than 15,000 | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
hoverboards in the UK because they're unsafe. | :01:22. | :01:23. | |
Many had faulty plugs and were at risk of overheating | :01:24. | :01:25. | |
Hi, guys, I work for Trading Standards and I've come | :01:26. | :01:32. | |
To talk to you about hoverboards. How do you know of a hoverboard is | :01:33. | :01:42. | |
faulty? It would be difficult to find out because a lot of the | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
problems are inside the mechanism, but if you bought one and you got | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
the plug out of it and you could see and it looks like a normal plug, | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
that is an indication it might be a problem with the whole thing. What | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
should we do to take care of a hoverboard? If you're going to | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
charge it up, do it during the day to make sure someone is around to | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
see if there is a problem. Is there a safe or reliable place to buy a | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
hoverboard from? We are finding problems in lots of places, online, | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
and even some of the big chain stores have had to recall their | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
products. At the moment it is quite difficult to find a place where you | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
can guarantee you will get a safe one. How are the faulty hoverboards | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
getting to the UK? All of the ones we have found so far are imported | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
from China. They are put on the plane, come over here and customs | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
check a lot of the products, but so many coming through the airport that | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
they cannot check everyone, so sometimes that's how they got in the | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
shops. Do you guys still want a hoverboard? Yes. Maybe, I don't | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
know. I'm in the middle. If you could check it is safe, it would be | :02:47. | :02:50. | |

affected by storm Desmond. Naz has been to meet Ben | :03:03. | :03:04. | |
who returned to his home for the first time | :03:05. | :03:06. | |
following the floods. What is it like, seeing all this | :03:07. | :03:18. | |
here? It's not very nice. Your football boots there. Some are dry. | :03:19. | :03:25. | |
These are not wet. It's not very nice. It was all in the cupboards | :03:26. | :03:32. | |
and everything, and the floor, all over the floor. It is just like it | :03:33. | :03:40. | |
is junk. It's a bit upsetting. I didn't think it was going to be this | :03:41. | :03:47. | |
bad. We sit on the couches around here. That's to watch the TV, but | :03:48. | :03:55. | |
it's ruined. Pretty wet, isn't it? It's not nice. Ben's family think it | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
will be a least two months before they can go back home but they have | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
had plenty of offers of places to stay over Christmas. | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
