'Best cordless vacuum by far' with £100 off is leaving floors 'pristine'
This slashes £100 off the usual £369.99 price tag, with the discount and Speed Clean Kit automatically added to your basket when you apply the code. Gtech is also knocking £120 off its 'powerful' Multi Platinum Cordless Handheld Vacuum, bringing it down from £269.99 to £149.99.
Gtech promotes the AirRAM Platinum as 'taking the work out of housework', boasting easy manoeuvrability thanks to its dynamic steering and Forward Inertia Drive technology. This latter feature propels the vacuum forward, allowing it to glide effortlessly across both carpet and hard floors.
In a bid to compete with Shark and Dyson, Gtech has incorporated its own version of anti-hair wrap technology, which prevents hair from getting tangled in the brush head, making it perfect for pet owners. The vacuum cleaner also features a single suction setting to deliver maximum power, eliminating the need to fiddle with different settings mid-clean.
This pairs with Gtech's AirLOC technology to remove tough embedded hair and fine dust that 'no other vacuum can'. Other standout features include LED headlights in the brushhead to illuminate hard-to-see dust and a long-lasting battery that can run for one hour without loss of suction, reports the Mirror.
While the vacuum's 0.8L dustbin might be on the smaller side compared to competitors, it boasts a feature that compresses dirt, meaning you won't have to empty it as frequently. The AirRAM Platinum also comes with a Speed Cleaning Kit and a detachable duster, transforming it into a handheld device perfect for tackling stairs, upholstery, and those hard-to-reach nooks around your home.
In comparison, Samsung is marketing its Samsung Jet 85 Pet Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner, complete with a pet tool, at £479, along with several accessories. This model has earned a commendable 4.5 out of five in customer reviews.
Or Miele offers the Duoflex HX1 Cat and Dog for £329, directly from their site, which represents a saving of £120 and carries a solid 4.2-star rating. Yet, the Gtech AirRAM Platinum stands out with an impressive 4.8-star rating from over 3,500 reviews.
A satisfied buyer enthused: "Exceeds expectations in all areas, easily bettering our Shark vacuum. The [AirLOC] feature leaves the carpets pristine and the design of the product means even edges get cleaned, which our previous Shark and Dyson couldn't manage. Overall, the Gtech is fantastic."
One individual praised: "Best cordless vacuum by far. Power is excellent at one-hour battery time [while] suction and pickup are amazing. I'm in a two bedroom flat and have vacuumed almost daily for the last two weeks and the battery hasn't gone down. I find it a lot quieter than my three-year-old Gtech and it feels lighter to use. Storage is simple – it sits in a corner of my bedroom, ready for use. I love it."
Despite acknowledging the AirRAM Platinum as a 'good vacuum', this four-star review stated: "Bit unpleasant to see the dust accumulating in the machine unlike our old AirRAM."
However, another satisfied customer exclaimed: "Fantastic. Nice and compact for storage. Great suction with the [AirLOC] system, has fantastic power and gives an extremely thorough clean. Great for picking up small bits of fluff and long hair embedded in carpet. Holds charge well. Extremely pleased, would always choose Gtech."

Nigel Farage throws support behind campaign to stop introduction of racing tax
The Reform leader said he would fight against the tax proposal during an interview at Goodwood where he was a guest of leading racehorse owners Dr Jim and Fitri Hay Nigel Farage has thrown his support behind racing's campaign to stop the government carrying out a tax raid which the industry claims will threaten the sport's future. The Treasury last month completed a public consultation over plans to harmonise remote gambling duties which would treat horse racing on the same level as other forms of gambling. The British Horseracing Authority has launched a petition and urged participants and punters to lobby their MPs to argue that racing should be taxed at a lower rate. The BHA has produced economic analysis which has estimated that racing could lose at least £66 million if the tax is set on a par with online games of chance, putting tens of thousands of jobs at risk. Reform leader Farage was at Goodwood on Friday where he was attending as a guest of leading racehorse owners Dr Jim and Fitri Hay. Last year former Prime Minister Liz Truss was among their entourage. Speaking to ITV Racing, Farage said: 'I love racing, be it Flat, be it jumps. It's a really important part of what we do as a country, and there are some concerns around it. 'I think there is an ignorance here. There is an an assumption from members of Parliament that all gambling is bad, all gambling leads to ruin, and look, some of those machines where you can go and lose your entire money in an afternoon are pretty addictive. 'I do think horse racing is different. You are making an individual decision each time to have a bet. There are checks and safeguards in place.' Asked if he thought that was the majority view in government, he replied: 'No. I think I'm in a minority. 'It's worrying for the racing industry because what they are proposing to put in is going to do the most enormous amount of damage. 'And I see this again and again and again, people with little understanding of what they are legislating on making decisions for everybody else. I will certainly be fighting.

Asda urges shoppers to return common household device due to 'fire risk'
The product has been recalled with Brits urged to stop using it "immediately". A UK-wide product recall has been announced on a common household device, with Brits being told to stop using the device 'immediately'. Due to an uncovered fire risk, all Goblin handheld cordless vacuums have been removed from shelves across the country. Households are being told to stop using the device as it was found that the battery in some units of the vacuum began to overheat, which could potentially cause a fire risk. The label of the faulty cordless vacuum has indicated it was "produced for Asda stores", leading the supermarket to advise shoppers to return it to their local store. However, shoppers will first need to check the site codes on their device, as only certain units will be taken back for a full refund or exchange, reports the Mirror. The model in question that could cause safety hazards is the GHV102W-20 model of the Goblin handheld cordless vacuum. A statement on the UK Government website reveals: "It has been identified that in some units of the Goblin handheld vacuum, the battery may overheat. This could pose a fire safety risk if left on charge and unattended." The statement goes on further to clarify that the vacuum "does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016". This specific Goblin vacuum comes with labels indicating it was created to be sold in Asda stores, meaning the major supermarket has had to swipe their existing stock off the shelf and urge customers to return to their local store for a refund or exchange through a product recall notice. Asda's website advises: "Stop using the unit and return it to your nearest ASDA store for a full refund or exchange. We are very sorry for any inconvenience caused. If you would like any further information, please contact Asda Customer Relations on 0800 952 0101." Customers who find the following site codes on their vacuum should immediately stop using the device and head to their closest Asda store: 15A.08.20.115 15A.10.21.181 15A.09.22.168 However, if shoppers find the site code 15A.09.22.168A then their device is not included in the product recall and is still safe to use. Previous Asda customers have left a mixture of reviews for the Goblin vacuum, with some saying it is easy to assemble and has a 'very good suction'. However, some did say they wouldn't recommend it for carpets or pets. One shopper said: "I find the suction very good but it doesn't stand up on its own. It comes with one bracket with a sticker on the back to stick to the wall to help it stand up.' While another person added: "No, you plug it into any socket with the provided plug, the instructions say it's best to remove all the fittings and just charge the top part of the hoover." This was followed by an unimpressed review, stating: "Doesn't pick up hardly anything and it's already broken. Only had it for 3 months." A fourth customer wrote: "I bought this at the weekend and I'm not happy with it at all. It doesn't work. Even put it on charge, it's not even charging and I am not happy about it at all." While a final shopper added: "Its easy to assemble but ive had it for months now and its actually stared spitting bits of dirt back out. So I wouldn't recommend it for carpet or pets!".

Kate Garraway 'sells second home for £1.5 million' after care debt struggle
Kate Garraway has reportedly sold a property in London for £1.5 million. Broadcaster Kate Garraway has reportedly sold her second home after being burdened with "excessive unpayable debt" due to caring for her late husband Derek Draper. It's understood she recently offloaded a London property for £1.5 million. At 58, Kate has openly discussed the financial strain caused by looking after Derek, who passed away at the age of 56 last year. She is believed to have been grappling with debts as high as £800,000 for his care and has also been settling debts linked to his business Astra Aspera, which ceased operations in 2022, reports the Mirror. Reports now indicate that Kate has parted with her second home, located in North London. This development follows rumours about her continuing role on Good Morning Britain amidst forthcoming changes at ITV. The Sun claims that Kate owned a flat in North London, which fetched £1.5 million on the market, although it was "heavily mortgaged". A source mentioned that she had held onto the property as a "financial safety net". The source conveyed to the publication: "Kate takes paying off the debts very seriously and she's always said she'd go to any lengths to achieve that. This is just part of that commitment, even if it does mean she's had to lose the flat which she actually purchased years ago before meeting Derek and before they bought a family home together. Like many people, she was keeping it as a financial safety net which she thought she wouldn't have to use so soon." The Daily Mail has reported that the property, which is reportedly in the midst of being sold, was a three-bedroom townhouse located in North London. The publication claims it was previously available for rent at £6,750 per month before being put on the market. The Mirror has gathered that the residence in question was indeed a house and not a flat, and it's understood that the property has already found a buyer. Last year, there were worries that Kate might be forced to sell the home where she resides with her two children. However, The Mail indicates that this situation may have been circumvented by the sale of her second property. Derek passed away in January of the previous year after battling health issues for some time, including an extended hospital stay during the Covid pandemic. Kate has openly discussed the financial burden of Derek's care following his hospitalisation. For instance, in a documentary aired last year, she mentioned that the costs were "more than" her ITV salary. She pointed out: "Unlike the NHS, state-funded social care is only available to people with the highest needs and the lowest means." Earlier this year, while reflecting on the hurdles she faced, she shared on Good Morning Britain: "One of the overriding ones until he went back into intensive care before he passed away, was dealing with the funding of care. At the time of his death, there were two appeals that hadn't been heard for funding. "It kept on getting pushed back and pushed back. In the meantime, and I'm lucky I've got an incredible job which is well paid, I was having to fund the situation. Now I've got excessive unpayable debt because of it, and if I'm in that position, what else are people going to be?".
