Dunelm has slashed the price of a "very comfortable" sun lounger in its latest sale, offering the Amsterdam Charcoal Lounger at a reduced price of £55.30, down from its usual £79, but only until midnight on Sunday, June 22 according to the company's website.
The grey lounger boasts 'breathable' mesh fabric and comes with a detachable pillow. The retailer's website suggests it's perfect for various outdoor activities, but customers particularly praise it as "perfect for relaxing in the garden".
For those looking for a more budget-friendly option, Dunelm also offers the Helsinki Lounger at £35, available in four colours. It has a 4.5-star rating, slightly lower than the Amsterdam Lounger's 4.7 stars. In comparison, Argos is selling the new Habitat Cali Metal Sun Lounger in orange for £45, which has received exclusively 5-star reviews to date.

The Amsterdam lounger's notable 30% £23.70 discount and its consistent four and five-star customer feedback make it a standout choice on Dunelm's website, reports the Liverpool Echo.
A satisfied customer named Andy comments: "Very comfortable reclining lounger. Well constructed all weather covering is perfect for relaxing in garden Tempted to buy a second one, good value."
One satisfied customer says: "Very, very comfortable recliner. This is so comfortable! I bought one of these and the Helsinki, cheaper ones, to compare. The Helsinki is comfortable and good value but this is next level! The padding is very comfortable and it's slightly longer and wider, I'm 5'8" and this is better for me. It folds up easily and is light and easy to store.
The locking mechanism allows you to recline

Buyers will need to keep it out of the rain as the cushion doesn't come off to wash or dry, and one person's feedback added a comment on the locking facility on the lounger, saying: "Tilts back easily but as others have said the locking mechanism doesn't lock, it's no problem if you are on a level surface but if you are on a slight downhill you'll slowly tilt upright!"
One purchaser was not worried though, saying, "I've just bought another so we don't fight over this one. It's more than double the price of the Helsinki (when being sold at full price) and you can leave that one out to get wet but I think it's worth it for the comfort."
The head rest is a bonus for comfortable sitting but cannot be detached

Another buyer gave the Amsterdam sun lounger four stars, noting one area for improvement: "Fantastic lounger very comfortable and stylish. Love that the armrests are thicker than my last loungers, a lot more comfy and roomy. Relaxing in these is lovely and the material keeps you cool. I dropped my rating by one star due to the fact that these don't recline back enough for my liking, just a few inches more would make them perfect."
Alternatively, customers can purchase the Argos Home Folding Metal Zero Gravity Sun Lounger in grey similar to Dunelm's Amsterdam chair is priced £45, and also in a choice of teal or blue too, if bringing a pop of colour to the garden or balcony is a priority. The yellow version is currently reduced to £30.15, find out more here.

Anyone suffering from heatwave urged to do one thing before going to bed

This Morning cleaning guru Lynsey Crombie, aka the Queen of Clean, shares her simple trick for tackling yellow armpit stains as a result of sweat and deodorant build-up Summer is a season filled with stain danger, from the potential for ketchup or barbecue sauce to drip out of our burgers on to pristine clothes, not to mention constant applications of SPF that leave clothes with cream marks to the heat, making people sweat through their clothes. Thankfully This Morning cleaning guru LYNSEY CROMBIE aka Queen of Clean knows all the tricks for tackling stubborn marks ensuring that you can breeze through the heatwave looking and feeling clean and fresh. Here she shares her tips: FAKE TAN FIASCO If you're a regular fake tan user, you'll be all too familiar with the orange tint it can leave behind on your toilet seat. To lift the stain, you'll need to use products that help dissolve the dyes and oils in fake tan that stick to surfaces like ceramic or plastic. A cream cleaner, such as Cif lifts the pigment while giving the bowl a gentle scrub. The mild abrasives break down the staining without damaging the toilet seat surface. A damp Magic Eraser is ideal for quick fixes as the melamine foam acts like ultra-fine sandpaper, great for buffing away stains without harsh chemicals. For really stubborn marks, acetone nail polish remover cuts through the oily residues in fake tan - just be sure to test on a small patch first. SAUCY STAINS Summer BBQs are super-relaxing, until BBQ sauce or ketchup drips on to your favourite white top. Scrape off excess sauce using a blunt knife to avoid rubbing it deeper into the fabric. Flip the item inside out and rinse under cold running water to push the sauce out from the back, this helps lift the stain rather than spread it. Cold water also prevents the stain from setting. Turn the item right-side out, add a blob of washing-up liquid directly to the area, and pop in the wash as normal. Washing-up liquid cuts through the grease and sugar in BBQ sauces. The 15 Minute Clean: The Quickest Way to a Sparkling Home, £14.99, is available on Amazon, currently on offer for £12.29. SWEATY ARMPITS Underarm stains from sweat and deodorant build-up can turn hard and crispy, and washing alone doesn't always do the trick. Before washing, spray the underarm area (from the inside of the garment) liberally with white vinegar. Let it sit for 15 minutes, then wash as usual. The white vinegar breaks down the salt, sweat, and aluminium in deodorants, softening the build-up so it can wash away cleanly. GREASE IS THE WORD Grease, from bbq burgers or mayo can be tricky to zap, but not if you act fast! Apply lemon juice to the stain. Lemon is a natural degreaser - the acid helps break down the oily residue. Then sprinkle bicarbonate of soda or corn starch on top - they both act like sponges drawing oil out of the fabric and absorbing the loosened grease. Let it sit for 10–15 minutes, rinse with cold water, then wash as normal. SUNCREAM SAVE Suncream can be a real pain to get out of clothes and the longer you leave it the worse it'll get. If you are out and about when the stain occurs, gently blot to absorb as much as the cream as you can. Or use hand sanitiser to cover the stain - this will stop if from spreading. At the beach? Cover the stain with sand to dry it out. As soon as you can, rinse the stain from the reverse under a cold water tap, to help push it out of the fabric. Then try: White vinegar: This can help break down the oil base of the suncream - simply cover the stain in the vinegar then leave for 30 minutes. Eucalyptus oil: This has magical stain removal qualities and it smells incredible. Coat your stain in the stuff, leave for 15 minutes. After applying either white vinegar or eucalyptus oil, wash the garment at the hottest temperature that's safe for the fabric, and check for the stain again before you dry. Once the item has dried you won't get the stain out. So if there is still a trace of the stain repeat this process again. Avoid the tumble dryer because any trace of the stain will become permanent. Instead air dry on the washing line or on a clothes airer.

Major move by America's biggest retailer spells job doom after chilling CEO warning

Robots are whirring through a 2.8 million-square-foot Amazon facility. The company says the bots are here to help, not replace. Amazon recently began shipping orders from its new $300 million robotics fulfillment center in Charlton, Massachusetts, the company confirmed to The four-story facility houses cutting-edge tech, including hundreds of autonomous machines capable of lifting up to 1,500 pounds. They work alongside more than 1,000 full-time employees to get books, electronics, and toys into delivery trucks. Amazon staffers are 'working alongside robotics and other technology that assist our frontline employees as they deliver for our customers,' Amber Plunkett, a spokesperson for Amazon, told 'Ever since we introduced robotics to our facilities over a decade ago, we have added hundreds of thousands of people to Amazon's workforce.' They're working at the e-commerce giant's $300 million robotics fulfillment center in Charlton, Massachusetts, helping humans get packages ready for deliveries. It's the largest such facility in the state. Amazon expects it will generate around $65.5 million in local revenue. But the rollout comes amid a wave of job security anxiety because of AI — and even Amazon's top brass admits the shift won't be painless. '​​As we roll out more Generative AI and agents, it should change the way our work is done,' the company's CEO, Andy Jassy, said in an internal memo to his corporate staff. 'It's hard to know exactly where this nets out over time, but in the next few years, we expect that this will reduce our total corporate workforce.' For their part, Amazon told that it is training a future workforce for new positions that will 'help design, build, maintain, and work alongside our technology.' The company didn't commit to maintaining current staffing levels. Jassy's memo comes as dozens of iconic tech companies make huge slashes because of generative tech. Microsoft is planning on cutting thousands of jobs to make deeper investments in its AI capacity. Amazon said the new Massachusetts center comes after a $300 million investment - it believes the high-tech facility will bring millions in regional revenue Amazon's CEO, Andy Jassy, wrote a note to corporate staff, warning that some of their jobs might be made redundant with AI Amazon said it has been retraining workers to prepare them for the advanced-tech future Intel, the flagging computer chip producer, said it will cut 15 to 20 percent of its workforce. Walmart, America's biggest private employer, slashed 1,500 jobs, including tech-related positions. Even consumer brands like Lululemon and Procter & Gamble will slash positions from its staff. AI-driven job cuts are frightening middle- and high-income workers that have largely been shielded by massive cuts. For years, those layoffs were concentrated in US manufacturing plants. The trend is freaking out college-educated employees.
