  • 0.9 litre dust capacity
  • Weighs 2.8kg
  • We like:We don't like:

    This cordless vac comes with a fully removable and washable dustbin, an LCD display that lets you adjust the five suction levels, check on battery status and receive maintenance alerts, a freestanding charging base and a telescopic wand, which can be extended between 455cm and 655cm.

    Like most cordless vacs, it comes with a removable handheld helper for smaller jobs and tight corners around your home.

    In the box you'll find a pet tool, a crevice tool, a combination tool and a flex tool for harder-to-reach areas; there’s also a spinning sweeper with disposable wet pads for mopping hard floors, and antibacterial reusable wet pads.

    Best fridge freezer deal 

    Bosch KGN39VXBT

    Bosch KGN39VXBT
  • Freestanding
  • Frost-free freezer
  • Black-steel
  • We like: We don't like: 

    This Bosch comes with a hanging bottle shelf, salad box, and a Vita-Fresh chiller compartment designed to keep fresh meat or fish especially cool.

    It offers super cool and super freeze settings to speed up chilling and freezing (handy if you’ve just brought a large batch of shopping back from the supermarket) and a Sabbath mode.

    Audible alarms will alert you if the doors are inadvertently left open, or if the fridge freezer detects a malfunction, but you can deactivate these if you’d prefer them to remain silent.

    Best air fryer deal 

    Cosori CAF-L501

    Cosori CAF-L501 air fryerWe like:We don't like: 

    This basket model from Cosori weighs around 4.5kg and has a 1.2kg capacity, which is generous for a single air fryer.

    Besides its eight cooking modes, it also has an adjustable thermostat, a timer and an audio signal that indicates the end of a cycle. The digital touch display allows you to control the programs and includes a time and temperature display, program status indicator and warning display.

    It measures 31 x 27 x 38cm (HxWxD) and comes with a two-year warranty.

    Best mattress deal

    Breasley Select Plus Memory 1000 Pocket

    Breasley Select PLUS Memory 1000 Pocket Mattress
  • Double
  • Pocket sprung
  • We like:We don't like:

    Exclusive to online retailer MattressNextDay, the Breasley Select Plus Memory 1000 pocket is already cheaper than the average pocket sprung mattress. Now it is on offer for £229, which MattressNextDay says is a £90 saving on the full price.

    It's described as medium firm but in our independent tests, it was rated 7.2 on a scale from 1 (very firm) to 10 (very soft).

    Despite the foam layers, it doesn't feel overly warm to lie on when you get into bed, so it should suit most people.

    Best TV deal 

    Samsung QE55Q80CATXXU

    Samsung QE55Q80C TV
  • 55-inch 4K TV
  • QLED display
  • Supports HDR10, HLG HDR and HDR10+ formats supported
  • We like: We don't like: 

    Samsung’s QLED TVs used to be top of the range, but Neo QLEDs and OLEDs now take the top spots. This means QLED TVs like this Samsung have really come down in price.

    This one has an impressive 4K screen, sharp SD and HD modes, good depth of sound and a decent range of gaming features and voice controls.

    Best mobile phone deal 

    OnePlus 10T

    OnePlus 10T
  • Large 6.7-inch display
  • Triple rear cameras
  • Two year guarantee
  • We likeWe don’t like

    This cut-down version of Oneplus' flagship 10 series doesn't make nearly as many compromises as you might think. Originally launching for over £600, it's now available at a serious discount, and with a versatile camera set up, large battery, 5G and over two years of support remaining, it's a serious bargain.

    Best laptop deal 

    Samsung Galaxy Book 3 360 13.3-inch

    Samsung Galaxy Book 3 360 13.3-inch
  • Intel Core i5 processor
  • 8GB Ram
  • 13.3-inch screen
  • We like:We don't like: 

    This 2-in-1 laptop has a 13.3-inch touchscreen that can be flipped all the way around so the laptop can be used like a large tablet, or propped up on a desk.

    Its Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB of Ram and a 256GB SSD mean it won’t baulk if you have multiple web browser tabs and other programs open.

    It weighs just 1.14kg, which is very light for a 13-inch 2-in-1. 

    Best tablet deal  

    Apple iPad Air 2022

    Apple iPad Air 2022
  • 10.9-inch screen
  • M1 processor and 8GB of Ram
  • 2,360 x 1,640-pixel display
  • We like:We don’t like:

    The Apple iPad Air may has just been replaced by a 2024 model, which means this 2022 version has got cheaper. 

    It has a 2,360x1,640 sharper-than-HD Liquid Retina display and comes with different memory options: 64GB, 256GB or 5G. It also has a powerful M1 processor.

    There are some issues with ease of use and it's surprisingly bulky. It may be called the iPad Air, but at almost half a kilogram, it's hardly feather-light.

    Best broadband deal 

    Hyperoptic 50Mbps Fibre (12 month)

  • Average speed 57 Mb/s 
  • £27/ month (12 months)
  • £19 upfront cost
  • Hyperoptic is a smaller broadband provider that offers fibre broadband in 64 towns and cities throughout the UK.

    It offers a great range of fibre broadband deals, promising to keep your tariff the same for the full length of your contract - unlike many other providers.

    July sale shopping tips 

    Check the Which? website 

    As well as telling you which products are best and which are lacking, we’ve also put together a list of the best and worst shops. 

    We’ve quizzed thousands of Which? members on their experiences of shopping in some of the country’s best-known stores and websites, as well as with lesser-known brands. 

    Watch out for sneaky tricks

    Some retailers use underhand tactics to pressure you into making a purchase. 

    These include anchor pricing (when products are on sale more often than they aren’t), pressure selling (‘30 people are viewing this right now!’) and dubious claims about the ‘before’ price of a product. 

    Research customer reviews

    It’s always a good idea to read reviews before you buy a product, but not all reviews are trustworthy. 

    Some sellers incentivise people to post fake positive reviews to drown out genuine negative ones. If you’re in any doubt, check our expert guide on how to spot a fake review. 

    Returning goods

    The regulations give you a 14-day window to return a non-faulty product, which begins on the day you receive your goods. Many retailers will give you longer than this, but it’s always best to check before you buy.
