Cordless, lightweight, and totally portable
This is one of the most lightweight and maneuverable vacuums Dyson's made, and it weighs just under 6 pounds, it's easy to carry between rooms or up and down stairs. Because it's cordless, you're not dealing with outlets or getting tripped up by a power cord. You can grab it, clean a room or two, and stash it away again in minutes.
It runs up to 40 minutes on a single charge, which is plenty of time for most day-to-day cleaning tasks. If you've got a mix of flooring in your home, the Motorbar cleaner head automatically adjusts to work on both hard floors and carpets. It also has a special de-tangling feature that removes hair from the brush roll as you go, too. No one wants to pull pet hair off of the brush.
The V8 Plus also converts into a handheld with the push of a button, so it's useful beyond just floors. Clean your couch, car interior, or even shelves and window sills with the included attachments. It comes with four Dyson-engineered tools, including the Hair Screw Tool, which is especially effective on upholstery and pet beds.
Dyson's whole-machine filtration captures 99.99% of particles as small as 0.3 microns, making it a good pick for allergy sufferers or anyone who wants cleaner air in their home. Some of the most frustrating allergens and breathing issues are made worse by vacuuming (or not vacuuming) and this might be able to help ease some of your fellow sufferers' sneezing and congestion if you vacuum regularly.
For its lowest price ever, you get an excellent stick vacuum that can truly do it all. You can save some serious bucks, too. It's time to go ahead and lock in your Dyson purchase and see how it can change how you feel about cleaning. Chances are you'll probably feel a bit different about it.

This woman was quoted $500 to fix her car's sun visor — so she got a $50 part from Amazon and did it herself
When TikTok user Julia Lutz was told it would cost $500 to replace her car's broken sun visor, she didn't just take the quote at face value — she took matters into her own hands. Armed with a $50 part from Amazon, a screwdriver and a couple of how-to videos, she pulled off the repair herself. 'I found a replacement on Amazon for $50,'she said in her recent TikTok.'About to watch probably like two TikToks, maybe a YouTube video — I'm going to replace this.' Lutz ended up saving $450 by skipping the shop — and she's not alone. As car technology gets more advanced, repair prices are climbing. Maintenance and repair costs rose 4.1% annually from 2013 to 2023, outpacing the 2.8% average inflation rate, as reported by CNBC. While prices vary depending on the make and model, more Americans are noticing a gap between what shops charge and what the repair actually costs — and many are starting to wonder: Should I just fix it myself? Thanks to Jeff Bezos, you can now become a landlord for as little as $100 — and no, you don't have to deal with tenants or fix freezers. Here's how I'm 49 years old and have nothing saved for retirement — what should I do? Don't panic. Here are 5 of the easiest ways you can catch up (and fast) Nervous about the stock market in 2025? Find out how you can access this $1B private real estate fund (with as little as $10) Lutz's repair quote may have seemed steep — but she's far from alone. The comment section flooded with similar struggles, sharing sky-high bills for what they say were relatively minor fixes. One Toyota owner said she was quoted $650 to replace a window regulator — a part she later bought for just $50. Another chimed in and wrote, ''I got quoted to change my serpentine belt for $400 when a belt is $30 at autozone, so I did it myself. I am no mechanic but YouTube is the best teacher I ever had.' These stories echo a broader trend of the rising labor and parts cost. In 2019, the average labor rate for auto repairs was below $50 an hour, according to repair software firm Mitchell as reported by CNBC. By the end of 2023, that figure had jumped to nearly $60. Much of that increase came in the post-pandemic years, as repair demand slowed, skilled techs left the industry and parts prices surged due to global shipping disruptions. 'If cars are to be affordable, they must also be affordable to maintain,'Alan Amici, president and CEO of the Center for Automotive Research, told CNBC. 'And they must be affordable to repair, or else we're going to have fewer vehicle sales. So I think the automakers are going to be motivated to drive those costs down.' The recent tariffs are only adding fuel to this fire. The Trump administration has added a 25% tariff to all imported auto parts — from engines to electrical components — making even basic repairs more expensive for everyday drivers. And while more recently, a U.S. federal court has blocked Trump's broader plan to impose global trade tariffs, not all tariffs are off the table and the policy keeps changing. Existing duties on steel, aluminum and auto imports under a separate law — the Trade Expansion Act's Section 232 — still stand, meaning drivers aren't in the clear just yet.

Dave Ramsey says — and that 'anyone' can do it You can't control the economy — or the rising cost of car parts — but you can control how you budget for your next repair bill. When Lutz's car needed work, she skipped the mechanic and turned to Amazon for parts and YouTube for guidance. DIY can save you hundreds — especially for simpler fixes like window regulators or serpentine belts. But when it comes to major repairs like engines or transmissions, it's usually smarter (and safer) to leave it to the pros. Consumer Reports cautions that while DIY jobs might offer short-term savings, mistakes can cost you more in the long run. It may also mean voiding possible warranties, so be sure to first check what your DIY repair might impact. That said, working with a mechanic doesn't mean paying full price. According to a Consumer Reports survey, many independent shops and national chains were rated highly for offering discounts and being open to negotiation. Dealerships, on the other hand, didn't score well when it came to affordability or flexibility. And, of course, it's important not to ignore the warning signs. If your car starts squealing, leaking or making mysterious new noise, get it checked out sooner rather than later. Catching problems early can be another way to save you even more in the long run.

Amazon's In-Car Technology Deal With Stellantis Is Dead
In early 2022, Stellantis announced that it would work with Amazon to develop new software for the automaker's vehicles. That included technology for the cabin and infotainment experience. It was called SmartCockpit , and it was supposed to arrive in vehicles starting in 2024. However, that deadline came and went without the software, and now we know why—Amazon and Stellantis are ending their SmartCockpit collaboration. Both companies confirmed to Reuters that they were "winding down" SmartCockpit development. Neither company told the publication the reason for the mutual decision; however, they said in a statement that this would allow the companies to "focus on solutions that provide value to our shared customers and better align with our evolving strategies." In 2022, Stellantis said that SmartCockpit would run in millions of Stellantis vehicles globally beginning last year. It was supposed to "integrate with customers' digital lives" and create a personalized experience with AI-enhanced apps, Alexa-enabled voice controls, and other tech-centric features. Stellantis claimed that SmartCockpit would adapt to a driver's behaviors and interests, as well as work with other Amazon services. The SmartCockpit project is just one example of automakers reaching out to tech companies for help in developing software, as some of them have struggled. Volkswagen has had serious issues with software that delayed several projects . Amazon is just one company fighting to control your vehicle's screens. Google Built-In (not to be confused with Android Auto) is already in many vehicles, including those of General Motors, Ford, Honda, Volvo, and others. Apple wants to solidify its dominance with its CarPlay Ultra , which takes over every screen in a car. It recently launched on Aston Martins.

NASCAR Nashville winners and losers from Ryan Blaney's Cracker Barrel 400 win
Ryan Blaney took control of the race with a pass for the lead on the restart with 116 laps to go, then drove to his first victory of the NASCAR Cup Series season in the Cracker Barrel 400 on June 1 at Nashville Superspeedway. Blaney won Stage 2 but dropped behind Joey Logano after pit stops at the stage break. Blaney then drove by Logano on a restart on Lap 199 and held the top spot for the majority of the final 100 laps. Advertisement The final pit cycle completed under green, with Blaney holding a sizeable lead over second-place Carson Hocevar and third-place Denny Hamlin. Hocevar finished in second for the second time this season, tying his career-best finish in the Cup Series. Here are the winners and losers from Sunday's NASCAR Cup Series race at Nashville: NASHVILLE RACE RESULTS: Ryan Blaney is winner, plus full leaderboard for Cracker Barrel 400 NASCAR Nashville winners and losers: Winner: Carson Hocevar Hocevar is a future star in the sport, and always a part of the story. Sunday's race had the best and worst of Hocevar, all in 300 laps. Advertisement In Stage 2, Hocevar drove hard into turn 3 and bumped Ricky Stenhouse Jr., sending the No. 47 Chevrolet spinning and into the wall. Stenhouse did not finish, credited with 39th, then told Amazon in an interview that retribution could be coming. But Hocevar finished the second stage in the top 10, then worked the strategy late to end up second after the final pit cycle completed with about 30 laps to go. Hocevar couldn't cut into Blaney's lead at the end, but was able to hold off Hamlin to finish second. It ties a runner-up finish at Atlanta earlier this season as his career-best in the Cup Series. Winner: Bubba Wallace Bubba Wallace needed a good finish badly, but probably did not think he would get one early in the race. Advertisement Wallace was penalized for speeding on the first stop of the race, on Lap 44. He lost a lap, and wasn't able to get it back at the stage end. Wallace did get the free pass on Lap 104 as a group of cautions helped the bottom of the running order, then steadily climbed the leaderboard. The No. 23 Toyota entered the top 10 early in the final stage, and Wallace drove up into sixth on the final run. Wallace entered Nashville with three straight DNFs, dropping out of the top 10 in points. Sunday's result should help Wallace and his 23XI Racing team reset positively as the second half of the regular season begins this month. Loser: Alex Bowman Alex Bowman's stretch of poor finishes continued on Sunday in Nashville after wrecking alongside Noah Gragson early in Stage 2. Advertisement Bowman's 36th-place finish is his fifth finish of 29th or worse in the last seven races, and it puts into question his playoff status with 12 regular-season races left. To give context on Bowman's struggles: He finished second at Homestead and was third in points through six races. After Nashville, Bowman is in 12th in points. Loser: Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Stenhouse was on the receiving end of Hocevar's too-aggressive bumping on Lap 106. (That incident comes up a couple times, doesn't it?) The No. 47 Chevrolet was a model of consistency throughout the first 13 races, coming into Nashville at 13th in points despite just two top-10 finishes but no finishes outside the top 25. Advertisement But Hocevar's contact sent Stenhouse into the wall, out of the race and down the standings and the playoff picture. The biggest stories, every morning.
