Shark 'easy to use' vacuum has 40% off for a limited-time only on Amazon

Shark 'easy to use' vacuum has 40% off for a limited-time only on Amazon The Shark Upright Corded Vacuum cleaner is 40 per cent off on Amazon for a limited time, with the price slashed to £139 Shark maintains that the Shark Classic Upright Pet Vacuum traps 99.9% of dust and allergens within the vacuum (Image: Shark Clean) Shark is renowned for its exceptional vacuums and other appliances, and now a fresh deal on Amazon means customers can snap up a "brilliant" vacuum for just £139. The Shark Upright Corded Vacuum cleaner has 40 per cent knocked off on Amazon for a limited period - and compared to its standard RRP of £229.99, it could be a bargain too tempting to pass up. The Shark vacuum features two floor settings so users can toggle between carpet and hard floor modes using controls on the handle. Shark also maintains that it traps 99.9% of dust and allergens within the vacuum, preventing them from being released back into the atmosphere.

Shark offers a five-year guarantee on the appliance so if anything malfunctions, they will substitute it at no cost - provided they register it with Shark, reports the Mirror. And for those seeking alternatives, Amazon's Avalsor Cordless Vacuum Cleaner has been slashed from £189.99 to £95.45, though it may not deliver the same suction strength as the Shark Stratos. Meanwhile, the Hoover HF4 Hydro Pet Cordless Vacuum Cleaner With Anti Hair Wrap for £219 offers both hoovering and mopping functions in one gadget, courtesy of its interchangeable brush and mop attachments. The Shark vacuum cleaner boasts a 4.6-star rating out of five on Amazon. One satisfied customer shared: "Very happy with the product. I had never used a fancy vacuum cleaner like this one, having only used classical ones in the past (e.g., Henry or similar). "I had to find a vacuum cleaner that would fit behind the door in my room due to space constraints. Being detachable, I'm storing the base part separately and the upright part behind the door, so the door can open properly. "This way, I have it easily accessible as well. Just grab the two pieces, put them together in one click, and vacuum. In a maximum of 5 minutes, I'm done cleaning the carpet in my room. The Shark Upright Corded Vacuum cleaner has 40 per cent knocked off on Amazon for a limited period (Image: SHARK . GETTY) "It has strong suction, and the rotating brush is brilliant. It's light enough for me to manoeuvre easily. It is also very versatile and can be used in many setups, reaching into my drawers and not easily accessible corners and spots. It is just perfect. I never knew how practical these vacuum cleaners are. "I don't have pets, but the pet attachment is very useful, having a smaller rotating brush to fit tight spaces or stairs. Although the vacuum cleaner itself is not too noisy, the pet attachment is, due to the whistle effect, but it is not a major issue. All the same other attachments are good and practical." Some customers have expressed concerns about the size of the dust bag. One customer shared: "I really like the shark, it has no problem picking up the dog hair, and there's lots as I have three large dogs. It's versatile, and I love how you can take the container off the bottom bit to do the stairs easily. Article continues below "The little pet hair tool makes doing the stairs a doddle as it easily picks up dog hair. Neither rotation tool seems to get clogged up with dog hair either. But I have a couple of gripes, the container which holds the dust/dog hair is not big enough, so I'm emptying it very frequently."

US proposes new drone rules that could lead to Starbucks, Amazon deliveries

Aug 5 (Reuters) - The U.S. Transportation Department is proposing new rules to speed deployment of drones beyond the visual line of sight of operators, a key change needed to advance commercial uses like package deliveries. "We are going to unleash American drone dominance," Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said at a press conference on Tuesday. Under current rules, operators need to get individual waivers or exemptions to use drones without visual line of sight. The department said eliminating those requirements "will significantly expand the use-case for drone technologies in areas like: manufacturing, farming, energy production, filmmaking, and the movement of products including lifesaving medications." The proposal includes new requirements for manufacturers, operators, and drone traffic-management services to keep drones safely separated from other drones and airplanes. "It's going to change the way that people and products move throughout our airspace... so you may change the way you get your Amazon package, you may get a Starbucks cup of coffee from a drone," Duffy said. "Industry needs this rule to make sure they can use this technology that's going to allow them to do business more efficiently and effectively." Amazon (AMZN.O), opens new tab resumed testing drone deliveries earlier this year at two locations in Texas and Arizona. Amazon has a goal of delivering 500 million packages annually by drone by the end of 2030. Under the proposal, operations would occur at or below 400 feet above ground from pre-designated locations approved by the Federal Aviation Administration. Operators would identify boundaries and approximate daily flights and takeoff, landing and loading areas and ensure procedures if communications with drones are lost. Drones would yield to all manned aircraft broadcasting their position and not interfere with operations at airports. The Transportation Security Administration would require flight coordinators and others to obtain security threat assessments and a fingerprint-based criminal history records check. Lawmakers and many state officials have raised concerns about drones being used to target high-profile U.S. events like the FIFA World Cup. Association for Uncrewed Vehicle Systems International CEO Michael Robbins praised the risk-based proposal as "a critical step toward enabling drone operations that will enhance safety, transform commercial services, and strengthen public safety with drones as a force multiplier."

I'm a nail technician — my favourite LED lamp has been slashed by 43% and it gives salon-quality results

TWO years ago, I became a qualified nail technician and since then, have been through countless nail lamps. The one that has remained my trusty companion has been the SUNUV nail lamp — and it's been discounted on Amazon by a hefty 43%. Whether you're looking to save some cash by doing your manicures at home or considering a career as a nail technician, this nail lamp is one to consider, offering salon-quality nails at an incredibly affordable price. We all know that summer brings weddings, BBQs, festivals, and other events that can strain finances, leaving less budget for monthly salon trips. So, now is the perfect time to save your pennies and put some treatments on hold by investing in a nail lamp. The SUNUV lamp has over 2,000 five-star reviews, has made over 3,000 sales this month alone, and is currently on sale for just £39.98. How much is it? The lamp usually retails for £69.99 but is currently (and frequently) on sale at Amazon for just £39.98. Who's it best for? The lamp suits anyone looking to do their nails at home, all the way up to people looking to start an independent career in nails. It's perfect for beginners as much as trained professionals due to its easy-to-use features and salon-quality strength. What we loved: The affordability and salon quality, as well as its four different time settings, which include a longer time and lower heat setting for sensitive hands and the longevity of a manicure. What we didn't: I genuinely don't have any issues to report with this lamp — it's been my go-to for years. SUNUV Led Nail Lamp £69.99 £39.98 - buy here Performance 2 BUY HERE I tested this lamp as part of my review of the best nail lamps, focusing on how long it takes to use, how easy it is for beginners to get to grips with and the features that set it apart from other devices on the market. The SUNUV lamp takes the top spot as the best overall lamp for me for several reasons. Firstly, despite being a salon-quality lamp — in fact, many salons use it — it's priced similarly to many flimsy starter lamps, making it a steal for the quality it offers. While it doesn't come with polishes, base coats and tools like some others do, the durability of the manicures it delivers makes it worth purchasing those additional items separately. One feature that I really love is the three different time settings of 10, 30, and 60 seconds, as well as a fourth option: a lower-heat, longer-timed 90-second setting, perfect for those with sensitive hands who may find higher heat intensity uncomfortable. The placement of the lights inside the lamp ensures even curing, while the sturdy, detachable base makes pedicures much easier to achieve. Price and packaging Other salon-grade lamps, such as Glitterbels or Gelish, can sit at the higher end of the price range, costing between £250 and £350. I've tested Gelish as well as other high-end lamps and still find SunUV's lamp to be the best all-rounder in terms of value, affordability, and features.
