Love Island contestants' go-to handheld clothes steamer is now 30% off
Amazon has slashed 30% off the handheld clothes steamer that this year's Love Island contestants have been using on repeat in the villa, and it's perfect for taking on holiday
There's nothing more annoying than reaching your hotel, unpacking your suitcase and discovering that all of your carefully packed clothes are now wrinkled and creased. No one wants to start doing the ironing on their time off, and it seems even the Love Island contestants aren't immune to opening a suitcase full of crumpled clothes, as they were spotted whipping out a handy steamer to use before getting ready.
The exact steamer they've been using in the villa is the Russell Hobbs Handheld Clothes Steamer, and it's the perfect pick for taking on holiday with you. Usually priced at £59.99, Amazon currently has it on sale with 30% off, slashing the price to £41.99.
Its compact size and easy to use design means you can stash it in your suitcase and whip it out when you arrive, giving your clothes a quick steam before hanging them up with no ironing board or figuring out how to use the hotel iron necessary. The speedy 60 second heat up time means you can quickly and easily get rid of creases before heading out the door, and it has a 150ml water tank that means you won't need to keep topping it up after every other item of clothing.
It has one temperature setting that's safe to use on all fabrics so there's no having to swap settings when you go from linen to cotton to silk. It also has a ceramic soleplate that makes sure the heat is evenly distributed and glides over materials smoothly.
As well as getting rid of creases and wrinkles, steaming is also great for getting rid of bacteria, with the Russell Hobbs Handheld Clothes Steamer eradicating 99.9% of bacteria in under a minute. The steamer also comes with several accessories, including a delicate fabric brush, padding accessory and a heat-resistant storage cover.
If you want something even more compact, the Philips Handheld Steamer 3000 Series folds in half to take up minimal space in your suitcase, is currently on sale down from £49.99 to £39.99, and is ready to start steaming in under 30 seconds. The Steamery Cirrus 2 Handheld Garment Steamer is also now on sale, reduced to £59.99 from £79, and is safe to use on everything from delicate silks to sequins and beading.
However if the Love Island endorsement of the Russell Hobbs Handheld Clothes Steamer isn't enough, Amazon shoppers have also been praising it saying: 'I very rarely write reviews, however this time I decided to share my opinion. Absolutely amazed with the ironing results! Proper high quality steamer that I was looking for. Highly recommended. Quick results, long lasting water compartment also long cable which is a bonus.'
Another agreed: 'Ideal for more delicate fabric. Easy to use. Great price.'
However another said: 'Water chamber too small. On off switch in an awkward position.'
Someone else wrote: 'Easy to use for de creasing clothing on the hanger with several different attachments. I keep this in the bedroom to freshen up clothes and keep them smart. It's a little on the heavy side, and the reservoir is not the easiest to check the amount of water in. But it works pretty well and I find it a useful addition to the iron.'

Love Island spoilers: Sparks fly at beer pong party filled with raunchy dares - and the girls get their revenge with ruthless game plan
Sparks will fly in the Love Island villa tonight at a beer pong party filled with raunchy dares - as the girls get their revenge with a ruthless game plan. The ITV2 dating show, presented by Maya Jama, returned to our screens on June 9, with a cast of new dating hopefuls hoping to find love in the Mallorcan sun. The twelfth series has already delivered explosive drama, from fiery arguments, to steamy nights, to ruthless recouplings. And the antics are set to continue tonight, with a game of beer pong that sees any Islander who successfully pots a ball do the dare written on the bottom of the cup. One of the cheeky challenges sees Conor kiss the Islanders he most wants a threesome with - Emily, who he coupled up with yesterday, and Megan. Meanwhile, Yasmin is asked to kiss who she thinks has the nicest lips and she chooses Dejon - not Shea, who she paired up with last night. Her brutal move sees Shea take a swipe back at her - when asked to shake hands with the Islander he thinks is playing the biggest game, he chooses her. He explains: 'Maybe she put it on me to try to stay in the villa, but I'm not sure.' And so when Yasmin is later dared to snog someone for 30 seconds continuously, it remains to be seen whether she will choose Shea, Dejon - or someone else entirely. Elsewhere in tonight's episode, keen viewers will find out who bombshell Harrison picks to couple up with, after he hit the villa last night. He has taken both Toni and Malisha on dates after they were left single and waiting at the fire pit following the recoupling in yesterday's episode. Whichever girl he picks will return with him - while the other will be dumped from the island. As the girls await the news of who he is bringing back with him, they plot revenge against the boys for their recent antics. For the first time in worldwide Love Island history, the girls watched the lads out on boys' night from a secret camera. The guys' hangout was soon interrupted by the arrival of bombshell girls Yasmin, Malisha and Emily. Unaware they were being watched, the boys spoke more frankly than the existing girls might have liked. They are not the only ones preparing for Harrison's arrival, with Dejon (left), Tommy and Harry (centre) discussing it too In tonight's episode, Helena says mischievously to Meg and Megan: 'Even if we don't think [Harrison] is fit, shall we be like, "Oh he's a bit of me"?' Meg agrees: 'All this game playing [the boys] have been doing.' They are not the only ones preparing for Harrison's arrival, with Dejon, Tommy and Harry discussing it too. Tommy wonders if Harrison will try to break up a strong couple - a prospect Dejon does not feel too bad about: 'To be honest, the more he does, the more leeway we've got to cause havoc!' Harry adds, somewhat brutally: 'If he goes and kisses Helena, I'm flying mate! That'd be so good, I didn't even think of that!' Harrison soon arrives with his final choice girl - but he starts getting to know the other ladies too. He pulls Shakira for a chat at the fire pit, while Dejon, Remell and her partner Ben watch. He asks her how things are going and she replies: 'It's been messy. Everyone's saying they're not closed off but everyone's acting like they're closed off.' Ben and Shakira (pictured) are left at loggerheads after their awkward conversation - and she later has some stern words for him about where her head is at The bombshell boy seems to agree entirely: 'Oh my God! Thank God you said that!' Ben later asks Shakira how the chat went, to which she says: 'It went well, he's a really nice boy.' That puts him off slightly: 'That chat was longer than any chat me and you have ever had... I don't know how to take that.' Ben and Shakira are left at loggerheads after their awkward conversation - and she later has some stern words for him about where her head is at. Meanwhile, Yasmin and Harry chat on the terrace, with her telling he is trouble, before he replies: 'I don't think it'd suit you, being real innocent and sweet.' She agrees: 'I can't be someone I'm not. I'm not going to sit here and be like, "Yeah, I'm the girl next door", when I'm like the f***ing devil.' He cheekily replies: 'I'd like to dance with the devil!' His partner Helena tries to listen in on their conversation from the garden - and it leaves her fuming: 'I knew she fancied him!' Meanwhile, Yasmin and Harry chat on the terrace (pictured), with her telling him he is trouble, before he replies: 'I don't think it'd suit you, being real innocent and sweet' This year's series has been one of the most dramatic in recent years, despite it only being early days in the villa This year's series has been one of the most dramatic in recent years, despite it only being early days in the villa. It means viewers are all saying the same thing - Casa Amor is going to be chaos. Taking to X, they penned: 'I can already see who's going to crash out during Casa Amor.'; 'These boys will be FERAL in Casa Amor.'; 'The mess this villa is going to be in when Casa Amor comes back.'; 'The state of the villa, Casa Amor is going to be incredible.'; 'Just imagine what the Casa Amor episodes are gonna give.'; 'I don't know, I feel like Conor will be the "respectful" boy until we hit Casa Amor.'

Amazon slashes 19% off cooling blanket for night sweats dubbed 'best thing ever'
Hot summer nights are upon us - this could be a great solution Warm summer days might be lovely, but the hot and sticky nights aren't. There's nothing worse than tossing and turning in the sheets, too hot to sleep - and those who already suffer from night sweats feel the burn even more. Plus, for those who like having a blanket over them at night, regular duvets just don't cut the mustard in the summer. That's why a cooling blanket could be a great solution, giving the comfort needed at night while keeping users nice and cool. Now, Amazon has a deal on the Ailemei Direct Cooling Blanket for Night Sweats, now nearly 20% off at £21.94. The specialist blanket is made from mica nylon and Japanese cold fibre to help keep its users feeling fresh on hot nights, and is nice and lightweight too. Breathable and comfortable, the blanket wicks away heat and claims to lower internal temperature by about 2C. Plus, it's machine and hand washable, making it easy to care for. If this cooling blanket isn't calling out to shoppers, they could try Dunelm's Fogarty Cooling Cotton Duvet Cover with their existing summer duvet. Ranging between £9.20 and £32 depending on bedding size, the simple plain duvet cover comes in colours including sage green, white and blush pink. Alternatively, Debenhams has the Slumberdown Cool Sleep Ultra Cool Nylon Summer Duvet / Blanket for between £46.50 and £78, depending on the size needed. The duvet is designed to draw heat away and is said to be twice as cool to the touch as standard polyester blankets. However, the Ailemei Direct Cooling Blanket is highly regarded by shoppers, who have given it a 4.4 star average rating. One buyer said: "Absolutely brilliant! You literally put it on and can feel the cooling straight away! It's very light and has two layers, it's a slippery type of fabric. I like having a blanket and get too hot under them, this is great to combat that!" Another said it's the "the best thing ever", adding: "I wish I'd bought it earlier, perfect for hot summer nights, lightweight, comfortable." A third added: "Absolutely blooming marvellous. Cooled me down on many a hot flush! Recommended." Some weren't as impressed, with one shopper saying: "I didn't find this cooling, however it definitely stopped me sweating and therefore definitely had a more comfortable sleep. I like the way it is very thin but has a nice weight to it so it's easy to sleep under! Would recommend but not if your expecting it to actually be cool to the touch."

Knicks star Jalen Brunson sends fans into meltdown with cryptic post... before revealing real reason behind it
Jalen Brunson was admittedly baffled on Tuesday night. The New York Knicks star is without a coach after Tom Thibodeau's recent firing, and the team is barreling towards an uncertain offseason following its most successful playoff run in 25 years. So, when the 28-year-old point guard confessed to being 'genuinely confused' on X, Knicks fans naturally assumed it had something to do with their team. 'Probably as to why the Knicks fired Thibs with no actionable plan for a targeted replacement,' one fan responded, referring to New York's rejected interview requests for current NBA head coaches such as Dallas' Jason Kidd and Atlanta's Quin Snyder. Many others joked about the weather in Cancun, which is a nod to the Knicks' Eastern Conference Finals defeat to the Indiana Pacers, or to other related topics, like the future of Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo. Others just offered random guesses about geopolitics or harassment allegations in Hollywood: 'We talking about Iran? Tyler Perry allegations?' But after his post received more than 4 million views, Brunson realized he needed to put an end to the confusion: 'Damn my bad yall, I was talking about love island.' After his post received more than 4m views, Brunson decided to put an end to the confusion The debaucherous reality show has spawned a number of spinoffs on both sides of the Atlantic and now appears to have ensnared Brunson, as well as several Knicks fans. 'Huda needs to go,' one responder added, referring to a Love Island cast member. 'Team Jeremiah or Huda??' another asked. One relieved fan wrote: 'All good goat. Never do that again tho.' The first formal interviews for the New York Knicks head-coaching vacancy have been revealed in former NBA head coaches Taylor Jenkins and Mike Brown. Both men started last season as head coaches, with Brown being fired by the Sacramento Kings in December for having a losing record. Jenkins was given the pink slip by the Memphis Grizzlies with nine games left in the regular season in March. At least three teams have reportedly turned down the Knicks' requests to interview sitting head coaches in the Dallas Mavericks, Houston Rockets, and Minnesota Timberwolves. College basketball legends Jay Wright and Dan Hurley have both expressed an interest in staying with their respective jobs in broadcasting and at UConn.
