Smooth operator: Oprah's favorite travel iron is a rare $30 off for a few more hours

Yahoo14-03-2025

When it comes to having good taste, no one tops Oprah — there's a reason people eagerly await the release of her Favorite Things List each year. Chock full of fabulous finds across an array of categories, it's a stellar resource for anyone looking to upgrade their lives. One thing from her 2022 list, in particular, has jumped out at us year after year as an amazing travel solution: the Nori Press Travel Iron, a compact, 2-in-1 gizmo that just might change your life. No one wants to look like a crumpled pile of laundry when they're on an adventure in a far-off place ... and don't you get the feeling there aren't any wrinkles in Oprah's world? Basically, if Ms. Winfrey loves this thing, it must be special. Speaking of special, if you have a trip coming up, you can get it for a rare $89 (down from $119) — but hurry, this lightning deal won't last!
This gadget doesn't go on sale often, and when it does, it usually isn't by this much. Its current price is within $5 of its all-time low, so if you've got some travels lined up this year, this is the deal you want to snag while you can. Just remember, lightning deals disappear once they're 100% claimed, so you'd be wise to add it to your cart, stat.
Since it tackles both sides of a garment at the same time, the Nori is incredibly efficient — two times faster than a regular iron, according to the company. But on top of speed, it has six fabric settings and a steam function so you can customize the results depending on what you're ironing.
It kind of looks like a flat iron for your hair — it's a tong-like wand with heating elements. "This gadget quickly presses both sides of a shirt, dress or pair of pants and reaches its highest temperature in three minutes," says Oprah.
It's also lightweight at just over a pound, and you don't need an ironing board to use it — together, those features make it the perfect travel companion. It also has dual voltage settings, which means that whether you're traveling around the country or around the world, you can plug this baby in.
It even comes in handy for the times you don't have access to a washing machine or dry cleaner. "You can also use it to steam or refresh clothes," Oprah suggests. "And with people traveling again, it's ideal to throw into your suitcase."
Amazon shoppers rave about this gizmo, too.
"I am absolutely blown away by Nori!" gushed a savvy traveler. "This little gem has completely revolutionized my ironing experience, both at home and on the road. ... The results are impeccable every time, with no need for an ironing board. It's lightweight, safe and keeps everything clean — a game-changer for any traveler."
"I hate ironing!" shared another happy shopper. "This iron is just what I needed to get my clothes looking more presentable. No ironing board either? Sign me up. I love that it can go with me in my suitcase when we travel too! My husband is enjoying the benefits as well with his dress shirts! Even my mom, who is the QUEEN of ironing, is impressed."
"I bought this for my weekend trip and used it all weekend!" wrote an enthusiastic fan. "It immediately removes wrinkles with a few swipes, and I found that the steam feature helps a lot. It fits perfectly into my carry-on, and I didn't have to worry about using the hotel iron! Highly recommend."
Some shoppers say it's not quite perfect.
"My only criticism is that Nori is not as powerful as a full-blown iron," shared one. "I think this is kind of to be expected though, and in my personal opinion, the appeal of Nori is that I can use this on the go, quickly, conveniently and anywhere."
A final buyer warned, "Beware: The steamer will spit out hot water here and there." That said, they added, "It's easy to use, unbelievably effective and travel-friendly. I bring it with me whenever I'm away and it barely takes up any space."
Speaking of Oprah-approved travel finds...
If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.)

Everything new on Prime Video in June 2025 - catch Robert Eggers' Nosferatu and over 50 new movies

Recently, I've been very pleased with the content that Prime Video has been releasing, and a large majority of titles I've been streaming over the past few months have come from Prime Video's movie library. Over the next few weeks, I'm looking forward to seeing what new Prime Video titles will be blessing our TV screens in June 2025, including Prime Video original shows and a whole new wave of movies. Nosferatu (2024) is the obvious standout, which I'll have to squeeze into our best Prime Video movies list. Beyond Robert Eggers' latest gothic thriller, Prime Video is expanding each of its genre categories, adding cowboy drama Brokeback Mountain (2006), sport comedy Moneyball (2011), and sci-fi/ action Godzilla (2014), keeping up its reputation as one of the best streaming services. It should be noted that, while the Prime Video Movie and TV Originals listed below are released worldwide, many of the third-party films and TV series that Amazon has licensed for June are only available in the US.

Prime Video reveals Gen V season 2 release date, and its first trailer reveals how it might set the stage for The Boys season 5

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Prime Video has set a launch date for Gen V season 2 The Boys' highly rated spin-off will return in mid-September Its first trailer addresses one of the show's most heart-breaking mysteries Amazon has finally confirmed when Gen V season 2 will be released on Prime Video. The Boys' highly rated spin-off, the first season of which currently holds a 97% critical approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, will make its debut on September 17, 2025. The live-action series' launch date was announced at Mexico Comic-Con 2025 (CCXP) on Saturday, May 31. Like many other Amazon TV Originals, Gen V's second season will launch with a three-episode premiere. The remaining five chapters will air weekly after that until its finale on October 22. As for who'll be back on campus for the series' sophomore outing, Jaz Sinclair returns as protagonist Marie Moreau. Lizze Broadway's Emma Meyer, Maddie Phillips' Cate Dunlap, London Thor/Derek Luh's Jordan Li, Asa Germann's Sam Riordan, and Sean Patrick Thomas' Polarity are also set to return. They'll be joined by Hamish Linklater, who's the first newcomer to be announced for one of the best Prime Video shows' next chapter. The Midnight Mass and Batman: Caped Crusader actor on board as Cipher, aka Goldolkin University's new and morally complicated Dean. Major spoilers follow for Gen V season 1. To answer that query, we'll turn our attention to the first trailer and official plot brief for Gen V season 2. Let's deal with the trailer first. Surprisingly, it confirms that Marie, Jordan and Emma will be reinstated as students at Godolkin University. As my Gen V season 1 ending explainer, well, explained, the trio were imprisoned by Vought for their part in the chaos that engulfed their Supes-only college in last season's finale. Before The Boys season 4 aired, I'd predicted that's where they would remain until the titular Supe-bashers broke them out of jail. Given how The Boys season 4 ended, though, that scenario is, at the time of writing, highly unlikely to happen. So, why has this trio been released, and how does Gen V season 2 tie into events of The Boys' fourth installment? To answer those questions, may I point you in the direction in Gen V 2's story synopsis. "In season 2, school is back in session," it reads. "As the rest of America adjusts to Homelander's iron fist, back at Godolkin University, the mysterious new Dean preaches a curriculum that promises to make students more powerful than ever. Cate and Sam are celebrated heroes, while Marie, Jordan, and Emma reluctantly return to college, burdened by months of trauma and loss. "But, parties and classes are hard to care about with war brewing between Humans and Supes, both on and off campus," it continues. "The gang learns of a secret program that goes back to the founding of Godolkin University that may have larger implications than they realize. And, somehow, Marie is a part of it." So, Gen V's second season will deal with the fallout from its predecessor and The Boys' fourth installment. It'll address why Andre, aka the high-school Supe played by Chance Perdomo in season 1, won't return as well. Perdomo died in March 2024 following a motorbike accident but, rather than recast Andre, Gen V's creative team tweaked this season's story to explain what happened to Andre off-screen. Based on what the teaser shows, it'll be one of this season's most emotional subplots, too. Throw in Cipher's plan to create a new army of Supes who'll answer to the tyrannical Homelander, the potential for this so-called secret program to be integral to the main show's final season, and cameos from The Boys – Firecracker makes a brief appearance in season 2's initial trailer – and Gen V season 2 looks like it'll be a highly charged affair ahead of The Boys season 5's eventual launch. With filming on the latter series ongoing, its arrival on one of the world's best streaming services isn't likely to happen until 2026.

5 new Prime Video movies with over 91% on Rotten Tomatoes to stream in June

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. There are over 50 new movies coming to Prime Video in June 2025, so you're in for a treat if Prime Video is your go-to streaming service. After scouring through its list of new titles, I've done my best to select five new movies with over 91% on Rotten Tomatoes you should watch over the next few weeks. Kicking off the list with a Hollywood classic crime drama, this is followed by two more crime movies, made up of a legal drama from the '90s and a crime comedy starring Marilyn Monroe. Additionally, there's a sports drama from director Bennett Miller and a Clint Eastwood war movie joining one of the best streaming services, all of which will be fighting for a place in our selection of best Prime Video movies. As mentioned in our full list of new Prime Video titles for this month, while the Prime Video Movie and TV Originals are released worldwide, it could be the case that many of the third-party films Amazon has licensed for June will only be available to stream in the US. With that said, you should bear this in mind when scouring through our list. RT score: 100%Age rating: N/ARuntime: 95 minutesDirector: Sidney LumetArriving on: June 1 Though it's been nearly 70 years since Sidney Lumet's masterpiece was released, it has truly stood the test of time, becoming a landmark courtroom drama and one of the greatest movies ever made. Starring Hollywood legend Henry Fonda, 12 Angry Men is set in the backdrop of New York City and offers commentary on the complex nature of the American justice system, bringing the tension of classic American theater to the screen. During a murder trial, 12 jurors must argue whether the teenage suspect in question is responsible for the death of his father. Their attempt to reach a unanimous decision proves to be more difficult than expected when Juror No.8 (Fonda) expresses his uncertainty on different parts of the case, resulting in a courtroom battle where personal issues arise and conflict between the jurors makes them question each other's morals and preconceptions about the trial. RT score: 95%Age rating: RRuntime: 122 minutesDirector: Tim RobbinsArriving on: June 1 Director Tim Robbins had established himself in show business as a successful actor in movies The Shawshank Redemption (1994) and Top Gun (1986), prior to taking a seat in the director's chair. Dead Man Walking is the second legal drama in this month's Prime Video recommendations roundup, adapted from the non-fiction book of the same name. As death row inmate Matthew Poncelet (Sean Penn) gets closer to his execution date, he enlists the help of Sister Helen Prejean (Susan Sarandon) for one last appeal. In the time leading up to his execution, Prejean visits Poncelet's family as well as the loved ones of the victims to understand the case better. In the process, she acts as a spiritual counsellor for him, and the two form a special bond. RT score: 94%Age rating: PG-13Runtime: 133 minutesDirector: Bennett Miller Arriving on: June 1 Moneyball is one of those movies that seems to yo-yo between streaming platforms whenever a new monthly schedule is announced. It was added to Paramount+ back in April, and now it's available to stream on Prime Video this month. Miller's sports drama was adapted from Michael Lewis' book Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game by screenwriters Steven Zaillian and Aaron Sorkin - who had previously served as writers on movies such as Schindler's List (1993) and The Social Network (2010), respectively. The premise is: Manager of the Oakland A baseball team, Billy Beane (Brad Pitt), hatches a plan to outsmart wealthier baseball clubs by reinventing his team with only a fraction of the budget other clubs receive. To get his plan up and running, he enlists Ivy League graduate Peter Brand (Jonah Hill), whom he tasks with going through the major leagues to scout undervalued talent - an old sports analytics method. RT score: 95%Age rating: N/ARuntime: 120 minutesDirector: Billy Wilder Arriving on: June 1 Hollywood veterans Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon star alongside legend Marilyn Monroe in this crime comedy flick from Billy Wilder - the master director behind some of the greatest movies from Hollywood's Golden Age including Sunset Boulevard (1950), Sabrina (1954), and The Seven Year Itch (1955), which also stars Monroe. Some Like It Hot is a campy balance between drama, crime, and comedy. Set during the Prohibition era, saxophone player Joe (Tony Curtis) and his friend Jerry (Jack Lemmon) bear witness to a Mafia murder. Worried for their lives, they devise a plan to escape Chicago, disguising themselves as women. RT score: 91%Age rating: RRuntime: 141 minutesDirector: Clint Eastwood Arriving on: June 1 Taking a departure from the crime movies and sports drama in this list, Clint Eastwood's Japanese-language American war movie (which was also co-produced by Steven Spielberg) takes the fifth spot with a score of 91%. Set during the Battle of Iwo Jima during World War II, the movie portrays the conflict from the perspective of Japanese troops who are defending the island - serving as a companion movie to Eastwood's 2006 war drama Flags of Our Fathers, which depicts the same conflict from the American viewpoint. Saigo (Kazunari Ninomiya), Baron Nishi (Tsuyoshi Ihara), and Shimizu (Ryô Kase) are just some of the Japanese troops preparing for an attack from the American soldiers. With their diminishing supplies and poor conditions in the tunnels, seasoned veteran Lt. Gen. Tadamichi Kuribayashi (Ken Watanabe) uses his skills to hold off the opposition for as long as he can, knowing that his side has almost zero chance at survival. Prime Video's Carrie TV remake cast has been revealed, and it marks the latest lap of the Matthew Lillard renaissance tour Prime Video reveals Gen V season 2 release date, and its first trailer reveals how it might set the stage for The Boys season 5 7 tense thrillers on Prime Video with 100% Rotten Tomatoes scores you can't miss
