As temperatures are expected to rise this week, a cooling fan becomes an indispensable item in any household, ideal for ensuring comfortable sleep during the night or keeping fresh while relaxing and watching TV.
Debenhams has dramatically reduced the cost of the 'quiet' High Velocity Chrome Metal Floor Freestanding Fan which was formerly £89.99, now down to £39.75 - a hefty saving of 56%. This particular model is crafted to provide a refreshing experience from all angles and boasts a stylish appearance.
It offers three speed settings—high, medium, and low—for tailored comfort and is said to be 'easy to assemble' according to its description.
The fan features three easy-to-use speed push buttons and sports a metal finish for that classic 'retro' look.
Debenhams customers have given the fan a 3.8 out of 5 stars, specifically mentioning its size - it measures at a substantial 20 inches.
For those seeking a more compact and convenient alternative, Amazon has slashed the price of the JISULIFE Portable Neck Fan that allows hands-free operation. Initially priced at £36.99, it is currently on offer for £29.59.
In a high-end range, there's the Shark FlexBreeze Portable Fan, previously listed at £199.99 but now available for £169.99. Enthusiasts suggest that choosing this device means "you won't be disappointed" with its performance, reports the Liverpool Echo.
Over at Debenhams, a customer expressed satisfaction by stating: "The fan arrived less than 48 hours after I ordered it. Mostly assembled. Very pleased with it as it tilts up. Three speed settings and I purchased it for less than half price."
Another highly positive review noted: "This fan is fabulous. I didn't realise how big it was, but saying that, it's powerful but not a "wind turbine". Even better, it was in the sale! I love it. Very much recommended."
A contented purchaser remarked: "The fan is very powerful and in the hot weather it is brilliant. The cool air goes all across the room."

Yet, amidst the acclaim, one critical review pointed to a flaw with the product, with the customer reporting: "After the first use the buttons stopped working."

Samsung Galaxy SmartTag reduced from £35 to £13

Amazon is offering the Bluetooth tracker that's the 'perfect travel companion' Bluetooth trackers are a must-have travel companion, letting users keep an eye on exactly where their luggage, handbag and even their keys are. Amazon has slashed the price of the Samsung Galaxy SmartTag2, offering a fabulous 62% discount in time for shoppers heading off on their summer holidays. The gadget usually costs £34.99 and can now be purchased from the online giant for £13.20. This is the cheapest price around, with the SmartTag2 costing £20.40 when bought directly from Samsung, while Argos is selling it for £23.99. The tracker can be popped inside a handbag or clipped on to a suitcase, allowing travellers to follow their belongings via the app. It's worth noting, however, that the gadget is only compatible with Samsung Galaxy devices. The SmartTag2 offers up to 500 days of battery, with the handy Power Saving mode extending its lifespan by up to 40%. The device is built to withstand dust and water, making it a robust travel companion. If travellers cannot find their belongings, the tracker's Search Nearby feature provides intuitive step-by-step instructions via Compass View. There's also the Ring Your Tag function that makes the gadget audibly signal its whereabouts to help locate it quickly. If the item still cannot be located, fear not, as the SmartTag2 has a convenient Lost Mode. When this is activated, the Near Field Communication displays its owner's registered contact information on the smartphone of whoever finds it. The Apple AirTag is a similar tracking device for iPhone users. Amazon is currently offering a single tracker on sale for £28, while a four-pack costs £92. Currys is selling the CHIPOLO Bluetooth Item Finder on sale for £11.99. This gadget is compatible with both iOS and Android smartphones. Over 7,300 Amazon shoppers have reviewed the Samsung Galaxy SmartTag2 to date, awarding it an overall score of 4.3 out of five. One impressed buyer wrote: "Outstanding simple piece of tech, effective and does exactly what it says on the tin… I use these on my keys, in my wallet and even in my car. Easy to locate using the app and an absolute lifesaver in the early morning panics of 'where are the keys?' "Helps add peace of mind for security and is very small to hide. Also helps locate where you left your car when parking. Overall, this is a fantastic piece of kit." Unfortunately one buyer was disappointed with the tracker, as they didn't realise it was only compatible with Samsung devices. They explained: "Never read anywhere this was only good for Galaxy phones. Unfortunately I bought it a few months ago in advance of a holiday, so I only just found it won't work with my Google Pixel phone even though it operates on Android." Someone else, however, is thrilled with the SmartTag2. They commented: "Perfect little tracker to keep an eye on belongings. I have one in my vehicle and also use one on my cat's collar. Battery life is also quite surprising. Location history etc. Fairly accurate, too."

Inside Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos's blended family... including his VERY private children

After a two-year long engagement, Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are due to tie the knot next week - and when they do, their families will officially become blended. The Amazon founder, who's net worth is $215 billio n, welcomed four children with his ex-wife MacKenzie Scott, whom he married in 1993. The couple met while they working for the same investment management firm, D. E. Shaw & Co, and tied to knot a year before Bezos launched Amazon. They were together for 25 years before parting ways after his romance to Lauren was exposed, and they finalized their divorce in 2019. There is little known about Jeff and MacKenzie's four kids - three biological sons and a daughter they adopted from China - with all of them keeping a quiet profile despite their father's fame and fortune. Lauren, 55, on the other hand, welcomed a son, named Nikko Gonzalez, with footballer Tony Gonzalez in 2002 before splitting. She then walked down the aisle with Hollywood agent Patrick Whitesell in 2005, and together, they had a son, named Evan Whitesell, in 2006 and a daughter, named Eleanor Whitesell, in 2008. They were together for more than a decade up until her affair with Jeff was brought to light in early 2019. With Lauren and Jeff's extravagant wedding plans in Venice, Italy, just days away, FEMAIL rounded up everything we know about their kids. Jeff and MacKenzie's eldest son Preston makes rare appearances with his father Jeff and MacKenzie's first child, a boy named Preston, was born in 2000. His name is a family moniker, with his father, grandfather and great grandfather having the middle name Preston. While Preston is rarely seen, he was snapped attending the Academy Awards with his dad in 2020. He was also spotted at the 2019 American Portrait Gala Preston reportedly attended Princeton University, as did both of his parents. He was also rumored to have completed a humanities and engineering degree from MIT, after Jeff was spotted at MIT's commencement ceremony in 2022. Jeff and MacKenzie share three other children together but they have shied away from the public eye The former also share two younger biological sons and an adopted daughter from China. However, the children's identifies are shrouded in mystery, with only Preston's name known to the public. The kids are rarely seen out or with their famous parental figures. One of the only times the Bezos bunch have been seen with their dad was almost 10 years ago at the Star Trek Beyond film premiere at Comic-Con International in San Diego in July 2016. Lauren has three children from previous relationships and her eldest son is a budding model Lauren's eldest son Nikko graduated from college in 2024 and is now a budding model. Her other kids Evan and Ella have opted to stay out of the spotlight so very little is known about them. In January 2023, Lauren spoke out about how she and her billionaire beau have blended their families, with her joking that she felt like they were the 'Brady Bunch' sometimes. 'On a typical Saturday, we hang out, we have dinner with the kids, which is always fun because you never know where the conversation is going to go with this many kids,' she told the Wall Street Journal. She also dished on co-parenting with her exes, specifically Tony, whom she branded as her 'best friend.' 'It wasn't always that way. There was friction [at the beginning]. But Tony and [his wife October "Tobie" Gonzalez] were at Thanksgiving with us [this year], and we're really good friends,' she explained. 'That took about five years, but we always communicated. I'm not saying that being best friends with your ex is the end-all be-all - but you do need to be able to communicate. 'I'm so proud of it. My son looks at me, and he's like, "I'm the luckiest boy in the world because I can have Thanksgiving with both my parents, and they don't have to be married."' She did not touch on her relationship with Patrick. What to expect from Lauren and Jeff's wedding The guest list is thought to have less than 200 people, with suspected guests including A-listers like Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom and even members of the Trump family. The Amazon boss has booked the Scuola Grande della Misericordia, one of the largest and grandest buildings in the historical center of Venice, as part of the multi-day-long extravaganza of celebrations. According to an insider, Jeff's $500 million superyacht, Koru, will be moored off the coast of San Georgio Maggiore island, which is home to the famous Basilica of San Giorgio Maggiore, a 16th century Benedictine church. They shared that the island is 'off-limits to visitors' from June 24 to June 29, with the mayor believing that the wedding will take place on the yacht - although The Misericodria, an iconic event space in Venice, has been booked out from June 26 to June 28. It's unclear if the space is related to their wedding, but the insider added that a private tender service is said to be taking guests from the island to the yacht. Separate sources recently told the Daily Mail that the festivities are expected to cost anywhere from $15 to $20 million.
