Earning the top spot in our round-up of the best washable rugs, interiors expert Ali loved the brand’s kamran coral rug. “The ornate pattern features a border and inner design with blue tones, and we found it added a luxurious-looking element to our living room,” she said. “With a dog and two kids at home, we found the water-resistant, stain-resistant rug still looked spotless after several weeks’ use, and it’s easy to vacuum.” Tall praise indeed.

When it comes to doing the laundry in the depths of winter, there’s one appliance you may want to invest in: a heated clothes airer.

Now, you can save even more money, thanks to Black Friday deals from Lakeland, Easylife and Amazon. True to form, our team of shopping experts have rounded up the best heated clothes airer offers available:

So, what are you waiting for?

The first use of Black Friday dates back to the Fifties in Philadelphia, where the local police department coined the term to describe the huge traffic jams, overcrowded pavements and mobbed stores in the city on the day after Thanksgiving.

It wasn’t until the 1980s that the phrase caught on in the rest of America, and was used as a marketing ploy to promote the consumer event and encourage sales. It was then deployed as a reference to the financial status of stores, as they went from being “in the red” to “in the black” as profits increased.

It has since become one of the biggest shopping events in the calendar – not just in the United States, but also in the UK and other parts of the world.

While it was once just a one-day sale, it’s now evolved into a four-day bonanza, and in some cases, it spans the entire month of November, with deals on tech, beauty, home appliances, fashion, toys and much more.

Beauty writer Lucy praised Color Wow’s dream coat in her review where she said that it “did a stellar job of keeping my hair straight and adding some serious shine and gloss”. There “was no hint of a wave poking through and, my locks still looked relatively shiny after a day in the rain”, she added. A great buy this Black Friday – I’m adding it straight to my basket.

The vertuo pop is Nespresso’s most affordable coffee machine – and, naturally, it’s been tried and tested by the team at IndyBest. Spoiler alert: Lauren loved it.

Now, Amazon has slashed the price of the machine by nearly 50 per cent. Receiving a glowing five-star review, she praised the “small but mighty” machine that will slot seamlessly into most people’s kitchen countertops. “Weighing in at just 3.5kg, if you have a large cupboard and won’t be using the machine every day, it’s also incredibly easy to store away until you need it,” she added.
