Amazon shoppers swap Dyson and Shark for cordless vacuum slashed from £200 to £120
Amazon customers can claim a 40% discount on the Smoture VAC02 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner by stacking two deals
The Smoture cordless vacuum has earned more than 1,000 five-star reviews
Amazon customers can bag an £80 discount on a cordless vacuum cleaner by combining two offers. The Smoture VAC02 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner is currently marked down from £199.99 to £129.99, but an extra £10 discount can be applied by checking a tickbox beneath the price on the product page.
This brings the total cost to £119.98 – a saving of £80.01. The Smoture VAC02 is praised for its 'powerful' suction ability, courtesy of its brushless 550w motor, which is claimed to extract even deeply lodged dust, pet hair and stubborn dirt from carpets and hard floors.
The vacuum cleaner comes equipped with LED lights in the brush head to highlight dirt and a touch-screen display for effortless switching between four cleaning modes: Eco, Mid, Max and Auto. In Auto mode, the device automatically adjusts its suction power to suit the floor type, whether that means increasing the strength for carpets or reducing it for hard floors.

There's also an LED display that notifies users of any blockages and shows the remaining battery life, which can last up to 60 minutes in Eco mode. The Smoture vacuum is designed with a self-standing feature – enabling it to stand independently without toppling over – and includes a wall-mounted charging station for convenient storage, reports the Liverpool Echo.
With a 4.8-star rating, the Smoture VAC02 outperforms the 4.4-star rated Shark PowerDetect Clean and Empty Cordless Pet Vacuum Cleaner (£349.99). However, this model is said to be Shark's 'best cleaning' cordless vacuum and automatically empties and charges itself after use.

Amazon customers can save £77 on the Smoture VAC02 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner.
Another option on the market is the Hoover HF4 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner with Anti Hair Wrap, now slashed in price from £249 to a more affordable £169. This 'Pet' model, which boasts a solid 4.4-star rating, comes with a pet hair tool and an extended crevice tool for reaching those difficult nooks and crannies.
However, it's the Smoture VAC02 that's been receiving heaps of accolades, with a whopping 97% of users awarding out four or five stars at Amazon. One particularly glowing review says: "I'm really impressed with the Smoture vacuum cleaner.
"It's lightweight, powerful and super easy to handle. It picks up dust, pet hair and crumbs effortlessly, even from corners and carpets. The suction is strong and the battery life is better than I expected. I also love how easy it is to empty the dust container and clean the filters. Overall, great value for money – it's made cleaning so much quicker and less of a chore."

Another says: "The suction power is excellent – it easily picks up from both carpets and hard floors without needing to go over the same spot multiple times. The battery life is also outstanding, and one feature I really appreciate is the visible battery level indicator, which makes it easy to see how much charge is left at a glance. I've owned Dyson and Shark cordless vacuums and this one outperforms them in terms of power and usability. It's lightweight, easy to manoeuvre and feels well-designed."

One customer left a mix three-star review, saying: "Great for hard floors but not as good on carpets. The biggest complaint I have is all the weight is on the top of the handle and hardly any on the base. This puts a lot of emphasis on your arm as you move the cleaner. Its like a work out for your arm."
But this five-star review says: "I don't usually write reviews but I am so impressed with this I felt I had to. I have a dog that moults a lot all year around. I thought this [vacuum] is very reasonably priced and wasn't sure if it would be powerful enough to manage all the dog hair. I'm glad I took the gamble because this is brilliant. It is simple to put together and it has good battery life. It has tackled all the dog hairs without any trouble and the attachments are great too."

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."

Get a 'fast and reliable' Fire TV Stick rival for £5 - but the deal is selling fast
The Roku Express HD streaming stick is one of the closest rivals to the Fire TV Stick, and in a savvy deal stack it can be bought for less than £5 - here's how Amazon Fire TV Sticks are undoubtedly some of the most adaptable devices available for those looking to enhance their smart TVs, but we've found something for a fraction of the price. Rival Roku offer the same plug-in perks, and its streaming gadget can now be bought for £5. The Roku Express HD streaming stick is one of the fiercest competitors to the Fire TV Stick due to its similarities and, naturally, its looks and appearance, but there are numerous differences to bear in mind. One of the top features shoppers favour about the Roku device is the interface. Thanks to TopCashback, shoppers can get the device for slightly less than £5. Those who buy the device from Currys but through TopCashback's links will give shoppers a proportion of their money back. Man shares 'gran's cream' that 'cleared spots and blemishes in four days' VPN fans rushing for free £50 Amazon voucher thanks to stellar NordVPN offer New TopCashback members and Currys customers will receive £4.82 back after cashback, bringing the total cost down significantly. When it comes to content, there's also a broader range of apps to choose from. It's also not part of the Amazon ecosystem, so unless shoppers are a massive fan of Alexa and being in the Amazon ecosystem, Roku could be an option. In terms of specs, the device allows viewers to watch in 1080p and has a vast range of apps and channels, including iPlayer, ITV Hub, All 4, My5, UKTV Play and STV, reports the Mirror. There's also Netflix, Prime Video, Apple TV, NOW TV, STV, Google Play Movies and TV, Rakuten TV, Sky Store, Sky News, Pluto TV, BBC Sport, Rakuten, Crunchyroll, and Hayu. For music enthusiasts, there's even Spotify, Deezer, Tidal and TuneIn Radio. The device boasts excellent reviews and provides an alternative to the Amazon Fire TV Stick at a higher price point. Google's 4K Streamer Kit is also available for £99.99, offering swift performance and sleek design for accessing all necessary streaming applications. The Roku Express has more than 1000 reviews from shoppers, with many praising its interface and connection. As one user said: "Roku Express is way better than its rivals. Connection to Wi-Fi is so easy and never drops out like my last streaming stick. "It is also much faster and reliable than others, and it broadcasts in HD where available". Another reviewer noted: "Good low-cost solution for streaming multiple TV services. "We especially like the simplified remote control. Set up is easy, but you do need to open a Roku account using a credit card; however, PIN protection helps limit the risk of unintended (or unauthorised) purchases." Nevertheless, some users expressed dissatisfaction with the limited functionality of the Roku remote. As one person said: "It was really easy to set up and use, as well as the simplicity of finding and setting up streaming services via Roku. "But the reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it doesn't have a power button or volume controls, which meant I still had to" use my TV remote as well as the Roku remote, which was a bit of a nuisance having to keep two remotes handy rather than just one. Here's how to get a Roku Stick for £5 Sign up as a new member. Find Currys on the site and hit 'Get Cashback Now' Shop and check out as usual on the Currys website with the Roku stick in your basket Cashback will track and pop up in your TopCashback account within seven working days of the transaction
