JOIN AND ACCESS THE MEMBER REVIEWS

I've been reviewing fireworks with the help of my members since 1999, offering impartial opinions on the best (and worst) products available to the UK public. As a member, you can access the full reviews, along with pictures and video where available.

Find out what a firework is really like - no need to rely on catalogue desciptions or a retailer's sales pitch.

Most new reviews are supported by video - your guarantee of impartiality. You can also disregard our opinion, and form your own by watching the products in action for yourself.

Many new reviews now include broadband quality video (DivX or Windows Media).

Where available, reviews are supported by pre-firing shots, video grabs and long exposure photographs.

Member comments are welcomed and included. See what other enthusiasts think about the products.

See the Review section for current reviews, the Review Index for a complete listing, and the Vault Review section for older reviews.

The reviews can help YOU create a better display - rather than buying "blind", you can find out what all the best fireworks are and concentrate your budget on those.

Check out a small selection of comments posted in our forum:

... UKFR really removes the lottery element from buying fireworks. Wish I'd found it years ago! - Richardmx

... I'm spending about £500 this year. Last year, I spent £700 and wasted so much money on really poor value stuff... so the joining fee for UKFR will be paid back ten-fold, I know this year's display will be better than last year's by a country mile. - Macka

... Our thanks to the all those involved with UKFR for providing such an excellent web site and such valuable information. - TFS

... thanks again to UKFR for providing review material that ensured I had some of the best pyro available on the market today!! - Chris Hartley

...The help, hints and tips that I have managed to gather from this site have been invaluable in ensuring that the whole night went off without one single hitch. From hints on personal safety (mine and the audience), setting out the fireworks to getting timings from the reviews sections – and much more beside, all invaluable and well worth the subscription – Thankyou, keep up the good work. !! - Starsky

... Must say a big thank you to everyone at the UKFR for their help, my appreciation goes out to all of you for putting up with my amateurishness, I ended up with a superb display thanks in particular to Pete, Tony Webster, Graham Mann, Paul Sergeant, Clawton, Dj Liam, Pepsi, sorry if I left you out just trying to think of all the people who chipped in and advised, thank you! - Nick
