Gadgets can make life more enjoyable. They not only give people new fun things to play with, but they also improve their daily lives in ways people could not imagine before.

Here are 7 items that you should be adding to your Christmas wishlist this year…

1. Mist maker diffuser

Essential oils have numerous health benefits, but not everyone enjoys diffusing them using candles or electric heaters. The mist maker is a safe alternative for homes with pets and kids since it uses water instead of fire to distribute essential oils throughout your room. It also has an ultrasonic ionizing filter that breaks down molecules into micro-sized particles, which means more medicinal properties end up in the air for inhalation!

2. Automatic milk frother

Ever wake up with an intense craving for a creamy latte or cappuccino? With the automatic milk frother, you can buy whole beans and grind them right before making each cup of coffee, so it’s as fresh as possible. Then, simply place the beans in the hopper, choose between single or double shots of espresso, pour in whole or skimmed milk (or soy/almond/coconut milk if you’re vegan or lactose intolerant), press start and watch it go.

3. Steam washer & dryer

Two appliances, the steam washer and dryer, are making their way into homes across the globe. These high-efficiency washing machines take much less time than traditional washers to wash clothes. In addition, they use about 45% less water than conventional top-loaders in addition to electricity for heat.

Just remember, as with every dryer, the machine must be maintained and cleaned with dryer vent cleaning. The results are comparable to a front loader, but without having to deal with an agitator in the centre of your clothes. Also, this machine is great if you have sensitive skin because it uses no harsh chemicals or perfumes that can irritate sensitive skin areas like the underarms or neckline, unlike many other detergents.

4. Gas cooker

A gas stove will allow your cooking to be much speedier as opposed to using an electric stove which takes longer because of the resistance in electricity and also, if you’ve ever used a gas cooker, there’s something extremely satisfying about cooking with a naked flame. But, of course, the price for this will vary because, again, it depends on the brand and model.

5. Coffee machine

A coffee machine is always a great idea for Christmas, and if you think about it, it’s something that everyone needs, especially in the morning when they’re half asleep and struggling to function.

6. Coffee grinder

This product isn’t necessary as an everyday thing, but it is a great idea for special occasions such as Christmas. The price varies, but they can get pretty pricey if you’re looking for an electric one that grinds your coffee beans automatically.

7. Blender

Blenders are one of those things that you really need if you like smoothies or milkshakes, or baby food! They’re a great investment because they usually last a very long time, and they should be one of the items that last for many years in your kitchen as they should be something that is used daily without fail.
