Amazon slashes 30% off 'almost silent' smart tower fan controlled by your voice

Shoppers can keep fresh and cool this summer with this quiet but powerful fan
When the temperature rises, finding ways to stay cool becomes a top priority. Whether shoppers are working, relaxing, or trying to sleep, a quiet and effective cooling solution can make a big difference to comfort, especially during warmer months.
Fans are a simple yet effective way to keep indoor spaces cool and comfortable, especially during warmer weather. From compact desk models to larger tower designs, they help provide relief easily - and now shoppers can get the GoveeLife 36-inch Smart Tower Fan for £63.17 down from £89.99 on Amazon.
With eight fan speeds and five unique modes - including normal, natural, sleep, auto, and a customisable option - this tower fan makes it easy to create the perfect breeze for any situation. Whether it's working in a home office or trying to cool down before bed, there's a setting to match everyone's needs.
The smart fan also connects quickly to Wi-Fi and works with Alexa and Google Assistant for voice control. Shoppers can also use the dedicated app to set timers, schedule operating times, adjust speed or mode, and more - all from their phone.
Designed for wide coverage, the fan features a 75-degree oscillation range and a high-speed motor that delivers airflow up to 6.3 m/s. Its quiet operation is a standout feature, with a noise level as low as 27 dB in Sleep mode. The built-in temperature sensor also allows the fan to automatically adjust its speed based on the room's conditions.
For an alternative buy, shoppers could try the Shark FlexBreeze Portable Fan for £169.99, which is described as a hybrid indoor and outdoor fan with cover, pedestal stand, remote controller and InstaCool Misting Attachment. The 12-1-1 fan has five cooling speeds, 180 degrees oscillation, 55-degree tilt and a controller. The Pro Breeze OmniAir 41' 2-in-1 Bladeless Tower Fan and Air Purifier from Debenhams is another choice for £149.99 that is said to remove up to 99% of dust, pollen, odours and pollutants from the air.
The GoveeLife fan, however, has a 4.5 out of 5-star rating on Amazon. One shopper said: 'Almost silent on level 1, still very quiet on top level and it looks great too.'
Another said: 'This fan is amazing. It looks modern, doesn't make too much noise when on, and can easily link to Alexa.'
'This looks great,' said another. 'Its footprint is small and tucks away in a small space. It runs quietly because of the strong breeze it emits.'
Naturally, not everyone loved the fan, and one person said: 'It's not as quiet as I had hoped for.'
With money off the GoveeLife 36-inch Smart Tower Fan, however, it could be the perfect option to cool homes as temperatures increase this summer.

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's wedding planners defend couple's lavish nuptials as Venice locals stage protests

The planners behind Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez 's luxurious Venetian wedding have defended the billionaire couple amid fierce backlash from the Italian city's locals. After a two-year-long engagement, Bezos and Sanchez are set to tie the knot on June 27 - but the ceremony is just one part of their extravagant celebrity-laden celebration. News of the lavish wedding has sparked outrage among Venice's residents, who have been protesting against the Amazon founder's arrival. Passionate signs reading 'No space for Bezos' and 'Veniceland: A playground fit for an oligarch' have been plastered across Venice, sharing the sentiment that citizens want Bezos and Sanchez to take their multimillion-dollar wedding elsewhere. Demonstrators have also been plotting to clog up streets and canals to throw off the wedding's events and hinder the roughly 200 guests from getting around the city. But the couple's wedding organizers, Lanza & Baucina Limited, have spoken out on their high-profile clients' behalf, claiming they have been adamant about respecting Venice throughout the entire planning process. 'From the outset, instructions from our client and our own guiding principles were abundantly clear: the minimizing of any disruption to the city, the respect for its residents and institutions and the overwhelming employment of locals in the crafting of the events,' Lanza & Baucina Limited said in a statement to Page Six. 'Before the recent news of protests arose, we had worked for there to be minimal negative impact or disruption to the lives of Venetians and the city's visitors.' The company added that Bezos and Sanchez have donated funds to various Venice charities in the months leading up to the nuptials. Bezos and Sanchez have also gifted funds on behalf of their guests, Page Six reported. Others have also voiced support for the powerful pair - including one of the wedding's vendors. 'Events like this bring quality tourism to Venice,' Antonio Rosa Salva, the owner of Rosa Salva Venetia bakery, which is making pastries for the wedding, told The Associated Press. 'I don't see how an event with 200 people can create disruptions. It's responsible tourism. 'It's prestigious that a couple like this, who can go anywhere in the world, are getting married in the city.' Mayor Luigi Brugnaro also advocated for Bezos and Sanchez, telling The Associated Press: 'We are very proud. 'I don't know if I will have time, or if he will, to meet and shake hands, but it's an honor that they chose Venice. Venice once again reveals itself to be a global stage.' Demonstrators (pictured) have also been plotting to clog up streets and canals to throw off the wedding's events and hinder the roughly 200 guests from getting around the city Founded by Prince Antonio Licata di Baucina and Count Riccardo Lanza, the high-end wedding planning company has worked with stars including George and Amal Clooney, and Salma Hayek and François-Henri Pinault. With a celebrity portfolio, the Bezos-Sanchez matrimony - costing roughly $15 to $20 million - is sure to be nothing less than show-stopping. An Italian source previously revealed to they will say 'I do' on the island of San Giorgio, home to the famous Basilica of San Giorgio Maggiore, a 16th century Benedictine church. Bezos' $500 million superyacht, Koru, is to be docked on the island's harbor. The island itself will not be open to the public. The ceremony is just one of three events - all at different locations. It is believed that on June 26, there will be a gala at a private cloister along the iconic Lid, possibly at Chiostro della Madonna dell'Orto. And on June 28 there will be an extraordinary party at a church, the source claimed. The insider confirmed guests should be arriving in the country over the next few days and will likely leave by June 29. 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. Musicians including Lady Gaga and Elton John are set to perform. 'Lauren wanted some big talent to sing for them and it just doesn't get any bigger than Gaga and Elton,' a source previously told 'It also helps that Gaga and Elton are good friends and were happy to do it together, which is cool. It will be like a mini vacation for the besties.' Around 60 of Venice's water taxis are reserved for the week, with some of the 400 gondolas on the island out of commission as well, according to the source. However, both city officials and wedding planners have debunked rumors that they had booked half of Venice's water taxis. Officials also denied that guests were blocking out rooms in ritzy hotels, and called any speculation of the wedding disturbing the city 'fake news,' according to a March statement. Yet, city's most expensive hotels are nearly fully booked with names from the star-studded guest list. Rosa Salva Venetia will be making pastries for goody bags for the over-the-top weekend. The menu items at the bakery include tiramisu, flaky, cream-filled pastries and fritelli, a traditional fried treat. The insider said a celebrity wedding planner, who is not a part of this event, has heard that guests will receive 'opulent' gifts just for attending. Roughly 80 percent of the money the couple is dishing out for the festivities is going towards Venetian vendors, according to The Associated Press.

Amazon data centres to consume ‘as much electricity to power Burnley'

A complex of huge data centres being built by Amazon in Britain will consume as much electricity needed to power a town the size of Burnley, campaigners have claimed. The proposed data centres, near Houghton Regis in Bedfordshire, are projected to consume around 114.8 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity a year. This equivalent to the power consumed by more than 42,500 UK households, according to researchers at Global Action Plan, which is campaigning against the development. It exceeds the number of homes in Burnley, which stood at 41,955 after the most recent Census in 2021. Planning documents show the two data centres in the development will include 42 back-up diesel generators, each around 25 metres tall, that need to be fired up fortnightly to check they are working. It is estimated this will produce the same emissions as 1,079 homes heated by gas. The plans were lodged with Central Bedfordshire Council by Colliers Properties, a known partner of Amazon Web Services (AWS), the retail giant's cloud computing division. The documents name Amazon Data Services UK as the site's eventual operator. Known as Linmere Island, the project would sit on an empty 22-acre greenfield site. While the plans also include 140 solar panels, it is not clear how much power they will supply to the data centres.

'I thought I was happily married, then Alexa tore my world apart'

A UK private investigator has revealed how he uses smart speakers like Alexa to catch out cheating partners - and the voice logs told one woman everything she needed to know Smart assistants like Amazon Alexa, Siri, and Google Home are not just for playing music or turning down the lights – they're becoming the unexpected sleuths in our homes. A UK private investigator has suggested that these clever gadgets could be unwitting detectives after working on a case where a woman discovered her husband was cheating. Christopher Thomas, from UK Private Investigators, said: "While the internet has made cheating easier in my opinion, smart devices are levelling the playing field. ‌ "These devices record so much information and many log what has been said or requested." A client grew suspicious after spotting odd voice commands and song requests on their shared Alexa history, according to Christopher. ‌ "She wasn't snooping," he clarified. "She was just trying to re-play a song she'd heard earlier. But when she opened the Alexa app, she found a string of romantic song requests, followed by a dinner recipe, and then mood lighting being set, all while she was at work." Initially, she thought it might be a system error or an accidental repeat of an old command. "When she confronted her partner, he claimed he must have hit the wrong button on the app remotely. But the voice logs told a different story," Christopher revealed. "The voice commands had been recorded and saved. It wasn't him and it definitely wasn't her." The commands included "play a romantic playlist, set dining lights to 40%," and advice on "how to cook duck confit." The digital forensics expert says that smart technology is increasingly playing the role of detective in infidelity cases, as people often overlook how extensively they're monitored. "These devices track everything including the exact words used, the time of day, even who said what. You might delete your texts, but smart assistants keep a record of your day." Christopher points out that discovering deceit in relationships often comes down to piecing together the subtle clues rather than cinematic confrontations. "In the real world, it's about gathering breadcrumbs that reveal the full story." ‌ He warns that while smart devices offer convenience, they also document interactions with undeniable clarity. "Alexa doesn't lie," he remarked, signalling that a smart speaker may be privy to more secrets than one imagines when it comes to unfaithful partners. It comes after one man admitted to sleeping with his brother's wife after a drunken night out. Speaking to agony aunt Coleen Nolan, the unamed man revealed that he's 'eaten up with guilt' after the drunken, one-off encounter. He said: "I got chatting to my sister-in-law about life and then we moved on to discussing my brother and she admitted that she's fallen out of love with him. The conversation got really deep and personal, and sparks started to fly. Unfortunately, one thing led to another and I ended up in bed with her." ‌ The brother asked Coleen whether or not he should come clean. She responded: "To be completely honest, I think if you tell your brother, your relationship is as good as over. Ask yourself what your motive is for telling him – is it just about you and getting rid of your guilt by handing the problem to him? "It is hard to live with guilt, but sometimes when you've made a bad choice, you have to. I guess there's a chance his wife will pursue a divorce, as it's clear the marriage is in trouble and she's admitted she's not in love with him, so your problem might go away. You could leave it and pray it never comes out – the danger is, if your brother and his wife get into an argument and she wants to hurt him, she might blurt out that she slept with you. "So, the next question is, can you trust her? It's less important for her to keep what happened a secret because she can walk away and move on, but your relationship with your brother will be left in ruins. "You say you've never spoken to her about that night, but maybe it would be a good idea to have a conversation during a break at work about how you handle things going forward. It might make things less awkward when you have to see each other with the rest of the family and provide some sort of reassurance."
