Viral Stanley cups that 'keep drinks ice cold for 24 hours' up to 29% off on Amazon

Viral Stanley cups that 'keep drinks ice cold for 24 hours' up to 29% off on Amazon

Daily Record2 days ago
Shoppers found their Stanley cups still had ice in them more than a day after filling them.
Unless you've been living under a rock, you've definitely heard of the iconic Stanley cup. Viral thanks to TikTok, the famous insulated water tumblers have taken the world by storm - but they come with quite the price tag.
Luckily, though, Amazon has slashed the prices of many of the colour options for this high-quality cup. Usually retailing at a steep £45, Amazon has slashed the price of several of their range of Stanleys by up to 29 per cent.
The 'Plum' colour option comes with the biggest discount, now priced at £32. Other big reductions have been seen on the purple 'Dahlia Shimmer' option (now £32.28), the 'Powder Blue Crush' option (£33.75), and the 'Blue Spruce' cup for £32.
The insulated cups promise to keep up to 1.2 litres of water or other drinks cold for two days with ice, or for 11 hours without ice. Made from 90 per cent recycled stainless steel, the thermal cup is also more sustainable than other non-recycled products.
It comes with a straw and lid, so users can choose whether to sip from the cup's straw or to drink directly from the cup, which its product description claims is splash-resistant.

Product Description
Every piece of the product is dishwasher safe, assuring that users won't have to put in any extra effort when cleaning. 'Built for Life' has been the Stanley promise since 1913, and the company promises to manufacture rugged, high-performance products that last a lifetime.
Those browsing alternative insulated cups may consider the similar Home Beige Stainless Steel Travel Coffee Cup on Argos for a cheaper price tag of £12.
For shoppers after a smaller option, the Home Lilac Travel Cup is available for just £8, also on Argos.
But customers adore the iconic Stanley, which boasts a 4.4 rating from over 7,000 reviews, especially when they can grab it at a discounted rate. One happy shopper said: "An excellent and very well built cup that keeps my drinks cool for hours.
"The best part is the size so that you don't have to refill frequently. Can fit into cup holders in dars and is one of the best products made by Stanley as all my previous flasks have been Stanley over many years."
Someone else added: "As described. Beautiful colour and keeps my ice water stays ice cold for over a day. Very refreshing. Always thought it was overly expensive but it's worth it."
Yet a less pleased customer said: "The lid would continually stick when closed making it a struggle to get it open if closed too tightly.
"The issue with this is if not closed very tightly the cup WILL leak unless continually upright, which is simply not practical. I would seriously consider another product if you're looking for something to keep your drinks cold and everything else dry."
But another five-star reviewer wrote: "Absolutely lives up to the claims. I filled it with iced water and put it on my bedside table in case I woke up in the night needing a drink.
"The next morning it was still icy, even after it spent the night in a warm room. Ice in my usual glass jug would have melted within the hour. Downed about half of the water, went to work forgetting I'd left the cup there.
"Twenty four hours after filling it I went to bed, checked the cup that had been sat on the bedside table and it was still full of ice. It had hardly melted at all."
The Stanley cup is available on Amazon.

'Game changing' hair styler that 'can do it all' gets huge 70% price slash on Amazon

Shoppers will need to act fast, as the price deal is around for a limited time only. Drying and styling our hair used to be quite time-consuming. However, that's changed over the years, with a variety of multitasking tools that do both at the same time. One of them that has been branded a "game changer" in reviews is the Remington Wet2Straight Pro Hair Straightener, and it's currently enjoying a huge 70 per cent discount on Amazon. The online delivery firm has just dropped the price from £99.99 to just £29.99, saving £70 overall - but shoppers will need to act fast, as the deal will only be around for a "limited" amount of time. This nifty styling tool uses an advanced 'wet 2 straight' technology that allows beauty buffs to straighten and dry at the same time, but without the heat damage and frazzled ends. It combines an exclusive venting system that quickly removes and evaporates excess water, reducing styling time, while the moisture sensor straightens hair at the optimum temperature with three times more protection, leaving it "soft" and "shiny." Offering a fast heat-up time of just 15 seconds, it also boasts a dry mode for hair that needs a refresh on non-wash days, while a storage pouch comes in handy for keeping the straightener safe and secure, especially when travelling. The beauty market is packed with similar tools these days, and for those who don't mind paying a bit extra for a professional brand, the ghd Duet Styler has been reduced from £379 to £299. To keep prices a bit more affordable, we have spotted deals website Wowcher offering a voucher that will get shoppers the Airstrait Hair Straightener, which can be used on damp hair, for £69 instead of £169.99. Meanwhile, anyone looking to bag Amazon's limited deal on the Remington Straightener might be pleased to know that it boasts a 4.5 rating from shoppers who say it can "do it all" without excess heat damage. One five-star review read: "I'm in love. I used these to dry and curl my hair at the same time the other day. I was sceptical but, damn, they worked. "Definitely read the instructions as they have a wet and a dry mode. My hair feels great and they haven't caused any extra damage as my hair is bleached." Beauty deal of the week YSL Black Opium remains an iconic perfume - and we know where to bag the newest edition for its cheapest price. The YSL BLack Opium Le Parfum offers a more vanilla-heavy fragrance that has been hailed as "intoxicating" in reviews, with a 50ml now half-price at Boots after being dropped from £115 to £57.50. Massive saving aside, it's the cheapest it can be bought for at the moment, as rival retailers Superdrug, Lookfantastic and The Perfume Shop still stock it at full-price. This interpretation of the iconic perfume was only launched in 2022, with its original floral gourmand fragrance still offering its famed notes that include pear accord, green mandarin, orange flower petals, jasmine sambac and cinnamon. However, the iconic coffee accord has been twisted with four different, yet still complimentary, notes of vanilla, which is said to be its most important ingredient, to create an "unexpected smoothness, with uncompromising intensity." Meanwhile, the unique glossy bottle that has been crafted from a precious black stone, with its dazzling glitter emblem at the heart, eludes to the luxuriousness of the fragrance contained within. As for the YSL Black Opium Le Parfum, Boots shoppers wanting to take advantage of the half-price discount will be glad to hear it has amassed a 4.7 rating from thousands of customers who say it "lasts all day" and "literally turns heads" when it is worn. One five-star review read: "I love the fragrance. I used a lot the first time, not realising how intense it was. It lasts all day and continues to smell great. I literally turn heads when I wear it." Don't miss Boots' half-price discount on the YSL Black Opium Le Parfum (50ml) that is now £57.50, down from £115. A second impressed shopper said: "Just what I was looking for, instead of having to blow dry then get straighteners ready, can do it all with this appliance." Someone else remarked: "This dryer/straightener is brilliant. So good it even gets rid of frizz, leaving straight shiny hair. I am disabled and struggle to hold dryers etc., not with this one. Very easy to use. Love it." A few shoppers have found that the straightener does not heat up as fast as advertised, as one three-star review read: "It does not heat up in 15 seconds as advertised, more like 3 minutes or longer." Although, someone else who praised the heat up time added: "I've tried a lot of different straighteners and nothing comes close to these ones, as sometimes if I couldn't be bothered to dry my hair I could still use them on my wet hair, and they heat up in seconds. I think these are better than the HDC ones by a mile."

The best garden furniture covers to protect your outdoor sofas, tables and chairs come rain or shine

The products or services listed have been independently tested by our journalists. We will earn a commission from the affiliate links in this article. To keep your outdoor space in tip-top condition, come summer rain or heatwave, it pays to invest in the best garden furniture covers. While it's easy to delay considering furniture care and storage until autumn, covering it in between use protects from rain, UV sun damage, falling tree sap, leaves and animal mess. Many premium garden furniture stores produce bespoke fitted covers for everything from hanging egg chairs to rattan sofas. But universal designs are also available from retailers like Next, Argos and Dunelm, with prices ranging from just under £20 to £80. 'Protecting outdoor furniture properly is essential to maintain its condition and extend its lifespan,' says Ralph Aspin, Head of Product and Innovation for garden furniture brand, Kettler. 'A quality cover reduces the need for frequent cleaning and helps prevent long-term damage.' We tested 11 garden furniture covers to find the best for your favourite garden chairs, tables and sofas. Pair with an approved parasol, patio heater and garden solar lights to complete your outdoor living space. The best garden furniture covers: At a glance How to choose the best garden furniture cover Choose a design and size that suits the item of furniture you're looking to protect. Covers are available to for everything from dining tables to benches to barbecues. Ideally, the fit will be snug and secure. Aspin says: 'While universal covers are a cost-effective option that fit a range of sizes, they may not provide a close fit. Tailored covers designed for specific furniture types or sets offer better protection and a neater appearance. Modular options work well for flexible or corner seating layouts.' The material should be breathable and at least weatherproof, if not fully waterproof. 'The most effective waterproof covers are made from materials like PVC-backed polyester or ripstop fabric with a waterproof coating,' explains Aspin. 'These are both durable and resistant to tears. Features like taped seams and secure fastenings are also important to stop water from seeping through. Meanwhile, breathability also lets moisture escape, reducing condensation underneath.' Covers with a UV-resistant coating shelter furniture from direct sunlight, helping to prevent it from weakening, cracking or fading. A cover with 'high colour fastness' is more likely to maintain its appearance and resist discolouration, which can look shabby over time. How we test garden furniture covers I have reviewed a range of garden products, including hoses and solar garden lights. For this test, I tried furniture covers from a range of popular brands and retailers. I used them to cover my six-seat teak wooden dining set or a small modular sofa set, depending on the cover's size. Of course, your garden furniture may be a different size or shape, so while I considered the fit, I also looked for a wide range of sizes and a choice of colourways, so it's easy to find the right alternative for your garden. I assessed durability, weatherproofing and overall design. I noted how easy it was to drape each cover over my furniture, how easy it was to fold and handle and whether I felt the material would tear. To test how waterproof and effective each cover is at protecting furniture, I blasted each cover with a hose pipe (before any bans came into force) and monitored how well the water repelled or if it seeped through to the furniture underneath. I noted added extras, such as drawstring ties and Velcro fasteners to secure the base of the cover, which is important when the wind picks up.

Best Buy Garden Furniture Cover: Aerocover Rectangle Garden Set Cover This cover is designed for use with a rectangular garden set, but there are lots of shapes and sizes within the wider Aerocover range. There's a nifty storage bag attached, but you'll need to practise how to fold it as I found packing it away harder than unravelling it. It draped neatly over my dining table and chairs without making a crunchy noise like that of some of the cheaper covers. I also liked the pre-threaded drawstring tie, which meant I could simply pull it tightly to secure the whole cover without any fiddly set-up required beforehand. Made from pure polyester, there's a water-resistant lining which effectively held the water from my hose at bay. The furniture underneath remained dry and the cover itself dried reasonably quickly after being soaked, which meant I could pack it away in its bag soon after use. It boasts UV protection too, and it is designed to be breathable to prevent mould and mildew from finding a foothold. All told, I think this quality cover is reasonably priced with features that should suit any garden. Key specifications 2. Best Value Garden Furniture Cover: Charles Bentley Black Garden Premium Rectangular Cover Charles Bentley sells a substantial range of garden furniture covers (from parasols to barbecues) both directly on its website, and through retailers including Next and Amazon. I tested this larger design (215cm) as it's well suited to dining tables and modular sofas. Made from polyester, the cover feels heavy duty and durable. Like the Aerocover above, it draped effortlessly over my dining furniture set, with plenty of wiggle room left at the sides to adjust and fix it into place. There are holes for a drawstring at the base, but you have to thread it through yourself first. Then it pulls tight to ensure the base of the cover stays secured. While matte and smooth on the outside, the inside has a shiny coating which added to its durable finish. When I hosed down the cover, it repelled the water, which beaded on the surface making it easy to drain it away and shake it off. There's no UV protection or built in air vents, though. Key specifications 3. Best Water Repellent Garden Furniture Cover: GoodHome Hamilton Grey Rectangular Dining Set Cover Compatible with B&Q's range of Good Home Hamilton furniture, this sober grey cover comes in a range of sizes to suit various designs and sizes. I tried the Rectangular Dining Set Cover (now out of stock, but other sizes are available,) and found it to be a good size for a six-seater table and chairs. The generous dimensions would also work well for bulky rattan furniture. Impressively, water beaded and bounced off the cover when I hosed it down. It also didn't take too long to dry in the hot sun afterwards. Two panels on either side let air circulate, ensuring that the furniture can breathe while preventing mould and mildew from building up. There's a drawstring to tighten it securely at the base, but what I like most are the Velcro ties that fasten the cover to furniture legs. I didn't come across many others like this during my testing. Key specifications 4. Best Breathable Garden Furniture Cover: Enzeno Garden Covers For such a large furniture cover, this design arrives compactly folded into a small black carry pouch. Returning it back inside for storage takes time; there is a knack to folding it so neatly. While the black material feels thin and a little noisy when unravelling, it covered my dining furniture effectively. The waterproofing claim stood up to inspection too, withstanding a soaking from my hosepipe to keep the furniture underneath bone dry. I was also impressed at how securely this design fixed into place. Velcro fastenings attached to the chair legs, while two large straps on each side of the cover clicked into place to prevent it from flapping in the wind. Another practical design feature is the air vent at the side that is intended to actively improve the air circulation and limit condensation. I think this cover has a lot of useful features built in and there are some 35 different configurations to choose from. While I can't tell if it will stand the test of time after one month, I am surprised at its reasonable price given the initial quality. Key specifications 5. Best Fitted Furniture Cover: Kettler Palma Low Companion Set Protective Cover Kettler is a respected garden brand with a 35-year history selling a wide range of outdoor and conservatory furniture. All its garden furniture covers are tailored-made to fit specific pieces of furniture, although not every item has a specific cover to match. To assess whether its covers have the quality and craftsmanship it claims, I trialled the Palma Low Companion Set and its matching cover. It made a good impression, arriving neatly stored in its own bag. The cover felt strong yet lightweight and was a snug fit on the chairs. Drawstring pulls at each corner ensure it doesn't blow away. For added peace of mind (Kettler's furniture is expensive after all,) weights are available to secure the cover further. While this may be helpful on particularly blustery days, it's not entirely necessary as the fabric is long enough to fit underneath the furniture to secure it from below. When I hosed down the cover, the water ran off effectively, keeping the furniture dry underneath. Vents at the side to encourage breathability and limit the build up of condensation within. This material is also designed to protect from UV, frost, tree sap and bird droppings, and I found it wiped down neatly. Incidentally, the grey finish doesn't attract the heat as much as many of the standard black covers I've tried either. Key specifications 6. Best Heavy Duty Garden Furniture Cover: VonHaus Garden Furniture Cover This affordable garden furniture cover ticks a lot of boxes. It's easy to manoeuvre and position, due to two handles either side of the cover. Small touches like this make all the difference, especially given the one I tried was pretty large, at 250cm wide. There are also two strategically placed air vents on either side of the cover to encourage airflow making the cover breathable and less prone to condensation and the build up of mould. It's designed to be fade resistant, anti-UV and waterproof. When testing the latter, the cover seemed to keep furniture nicely dry, even when I gave it a good drenching. It just took a while to dry afterwards as the heavy duty fabric is rather thick. Finally, it has fastening buckles, hook and loop tightening straps and a drawstring. Few covers seem to offer all three and these make it a secure buy, too. Key specifications 7. Best Rectangular Garden Furniture Cover: Sol 27 Outdoor Patio Dining Set Cover This design claims to have it all. It's made from a heavyweight polyester that is resistant to UV, water, weather, stain and heat. With a jet black finish, the fabric feels strong and well made. It's also smooth, which means minimal scrubbing is required to wipe away any marks. When I turned my hose to it, the water simply beaded away. The tarpaulin doesn't have any air vents. But if you tighten the drawstring at its base so that the cover is gathered above the ground, there should be enough air flow throughout to let your furniture breathe. It only comes in one large size (270cm) which would suit a table of up to six seats. The brand also sells a similar smaller cover that measures 84 by 104 cm and is similarly UV and water resistant. Key specifications 8. Best Patio Set Cover: Argos Home Deluxe Rectangular Cover This wide cover should suit a modular sofa set. Drawstrings secure it at the base, but set aside some time for the initial set-up as you need to feed them through yourself before use. A storage bag is included, making it simple to store away neatly, although I found it tricky to fold it up as tightly as it was when new. When I hosed it down, water sat on the surface of this cover rather than running off. But it still prevented any seeping through to the furniture beneath it. Note, it's not completely waterproof, instead described as weatherproof, so provided it isn't sat out all month in monsoon weather, it should do the job. At under £40 and considering its eye-catching grey finish and practical design, it feels reasonably priced for such a good quality product. Key specifications 9. Best Rattan Furniture Cover Set: Outsunny 600D Oxford Set Cover I tested this cover on a small modular corner sofa set in my garden and as it was so large it draped over easily. The fabric is quite heavy duty, making it one of the bulkiest designs I tested when folded away. However, it wasn't much of a bother to unravel it or to fold it back again after use. Plus, it's so robust it feels like it will stand the test of time. While it doesn't have an accompanying storage bag, it has a pull cord fastening at its base to fit it securely. A protective coating protects against UV and mild showers seeping through and causing damage. Water seemed to bounce off effectively when it faced the might of my hose. Key specifications 10. Best Weather Resistant Garden Furniture Cover: Garland 6 Seater Rectangular Furniture Set Cover This Garland cover is made from polyethylene, the same material found in many plastic bottles and bags, but it has a smooth, wipe-clean finish. A storage bag is included, as is a generous five-year guarantee which is unusual among the garden furniture covers I tested, and testament to the brand's belief in the product's longevity. There are various iterations available, although it may take some hunting and cross referencing to find the best option for your garden. While the one I tested is designed for a six seater table and chairs, it was way too large for my dining set. It is described as weather resistant, and this proved true on test; even when the water pooled on its top, none penetrated down to the furniture below. The material was a little noisy, but that's a small complaint. Perhaps more notable is the lack of loops or ties to secure it in place; you'd need a makeshift solution should the wind pick up. Key specifications 11. Best Budget Garden Furniture Cover: Funshot Garden Furniture Cover Much like the Garland cover, this green polyethylene cover feels like a camping ground sheet. But for under £20 (for the 170 metre-long version featured), it's a good budget solution. There are 14 sizes to choose from too, so it should be quick to find a size that will snugly fit your specific piece of furniture. The fabric is a little crunchy, so it didn't drape over my furniture as smoothly as some of the more premium designs. But there's a nylon drawstring at its base threaded through brass, allegedly rustproof rings, giving ample scope to fasten the cover tightly to prevent it being caught by wind. The anti-UV material is waterproof and protected the furniture beneath when I hosed it down. While the brand claims that its construction is stable and hard to tear, at first use, I'm not convinced that it will age as well as some others that I have tried. But given its wallet-friendly price, I wouldn't expect years of use and if you're bringing your furniture in during heavy rain or strong winds (as is recommended generally) it should still serve you well.

'Sleek' smartwatch that offers 'nearly two weeks of battery life' now £22 after 77% cut

'Have been waiting for what felt like forever for this watch to go down in price and when it did, I brought two!' For people who want to be held accountable for their fitness journey, or simply want to tell the time and receive notifications without having to check their phone, then a smartwatch would be a must-have purchase. Available in a variety of styles, these nifty gadgets will still look smart at a formal event. And shoppers don't even need to break the back to buy a quality device. While there are many high tech brands selling top of the range models, for those looking for a device to simply offer the basics there are plenty of amazing offers on Amazon. One of which is on the popular Jugeman Smartwatch. Normally retailing for £99.99, shoppers can now snap up this 4.8 star rated gadget with the pink strap for only £22.79 in a limited time deal. Other colours are also available, including green, grey, deep blue and black, but these are retailing between £23.99 and the full retail price. Boasting a 1.92-inch HD touch screen, shoppers can truly make this smartwatch their own as it comes with over 220 personalised watch faces to choose from. Featuring an ultra lightweight design to provide a comfortable and relaxed fit, the smartwatch will monitor your heart rate throughout the day as well as analyse your sleep. On top of this, the budget watch can track over 113 sports and monitor how many calories you have burned. Shoppers will also be able to use a range of other features, such as music control, weather forecast, find my phone, as well as receive calls, texts and social media notifications. Boasting a large battery life, this watch is said to provide power for up to seven days with typical use, but some shoppers have said it has lasted even longer. Another popular budget smartwatch on Amazon is the GRV Smart Watch. Dropping from £36.99 down to £20.99, this device has over 21,600 ratings. Able to track over 100 sports, while also providing notifications, this watch is perfect for light outdoor activities and casual workouts. Alternatively, for those looking for an affordable branded option, Argos is selling the Samsung Galaxy Fit3 40mm Smart Watch for £59. Featuring a 1.6-inch AMOLED display and a stunning brush aluminium finish, this device will provide users with daily health insights in real time. Back to the Jugeman Watch, it currently has an impressive 4.8 star rating from Amazon shoppers, with some reviewers saying that it offers 'outstanding value' for its price. One delighted shopper said: "I'm genuinely impressed with this smartwatch! It looks sleek and modern, and the bright display is easy to read even in daylight. The features are exactly what I need fitness tracking, notifications, heart rate monitoring, and more. "The orange strap adds a fun and sporty touch, and it's surprisingly comfortable to wear all day. Setup was quick and straightforward, and the battery life is better than expected. For the price, this watch offers outstanding value. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an affordable yet high-quality fitness tracker!" While another five-star reviewer wrote: "An affordable watch that can do everything, track my steps, exercise, sleep, heart rate, blood oxygen also enables calls and messages. Battery life really good lasts over a week. Connects to gloryfit app and paired within seconds." However, some shoppers had a couple of little gripes. One person wrote: "Only gave this three stars because of the instructions to set it up writing is that small can't read it." With another giving a mixed review: "Battery is very good lasted nearly two weeks. The heart rate and blood oxygen seem very accurate, however I think the steps aren't. Very easy to set up." Despite this, a top reviewer said: "Have been waiting for what felt like forever for this watch to go down in price and when it did, I brought two! So easy to set up, comfortable to wear, easy to use but the biggest bonus for me is the battery life. Five days worn and its still at 50 percent that's impressive. "Other well known bands that I've had before, the battery life lasts a day if that. So impressed with this watch. Would highly recommend." With a sixth shopper commenting: "Genuinely a decent little watch, don't expect high end software but battery life is so far incredible." To buy the Jugeman Smartwatch, click HERE.
