Running a house is not an easy feat. We are all too aware of families' struggles to get everything done on time and in an orderly fashion. In saying that, life does not always have to be mayhem. You don't always need to do things the hard way. What if we told you that here at DID, we had a large selection of portable, well-priced and easy-to-use household gadgets that will help make your home life a lot easier? 

Below, we have a list of 7 handy household gadgets perfect for making light work of cleaning, dinner, or home heating.

Here at DID, we love a good steam mop, not only because they are super convenient to have around the home, but because they are modern, feature-packed, and, best of all, inexpensive. With prices ranging from €50-€250, we stock brands such as Shark, Black & Decker and Nilfisk.

To be honest, we think that the term' robotic vacuum' alone is enough to get most people on board as to why it is a handy household appliance. Without a doubt, the robotic vacuum is the golden standard when it comes to modern household cleaning. With the touch of a button on your smartphone, you can program your vacuum to hoover your home for you. How cool is that? Admittedly, a robotic vacuum will be more expensive than other styles of hoover, but let's be honest, it is well worth the extra money.

With brands such as Eufy and Samsung stocked across our stores and online, you can avail of a brand-new handy household hoover right away. What's more, if you don't have the money to get a new vacuum right away, simply submit a quote to Humm Finance, where if you qualify, you can buy your newest hoover now and pay for it later.

You might be wondering, 'what on earth can a thermostat do in my home? What is it that got it on our must-have household gadgets list?' well, it is simple. A thermostat can have a lot of different uses, and when we say thermostat, we don't mean an old-fashioned run-of-the-mill temperature checker. We mean a state-of-the-art smart thermostat like the Nest Learning Thermostat 3rd Generation thermostat.

Coming in at between €200-250, this thermostat has it all. Not only does it help you save energy across your home, but after 7-10 days, it syncs to your home's heating and energy patterns and adjusts the heating in the way you want it. You can control the Nest from your mobile, and you will even get a monthly home report for good measure. Perfect for giving you all of the important details and figures when it comes to your home heating. 

There's no need to wait, we have Humm Finance options available, and what's more, you might be paying €200 today, but you will save so much money in the long run on heating and energy, that you won't even remember the initial cost. A very handy money-saving modern tool, one of our must-have household gadgets of 2023. 

The perfect tool for making delicious food, shakes, or sauces, a food processor is a super handy tool to have around the home. Here at DID, we stock blenders, mixers and processors from Kenwood, Ninja and Magimix. Food processors have become the staple in the modern home today because they are so convenient and have a range of purposes and features that make it the ultimate 3 or 4-in-1 machine. Some lower-level mixers' prices start at €70 and increase to €400 for some high-end machines.

Food Processor Key features: Some of the most important/sought-after key features of a food processor include a large feed tube, a child safety lock, a large bowl for large batch preparation, and different blending or blitzing combinations. Oh, and if the motor has a quiet function, then that is even better. The wide range of functions makes this compact kitchen device one of our must-have household gadgets.

We don't think that air fryers need much of an introduction because they are an absolute necessity in the home for many. Not only are they modern and well-priced, they are also a far healthier alternative to a regular deep-fat fryer. Both in-store and online, we are home to a massive collection of air fryers from leading brands such as Ninja, Tower, and Tefal, and with each brand serving up air fryers at a host of different prices, there is no reason why an air fryer shouldn't be on your to-buy list.

Air Fryer Key features: Some of the most popular key features associated with the humble air fryer include temperature control, food settings, large capacity, energy-saving capabilities, and an easy-to-use touchscreen display. You can even bake, dehydrate, and roast. So you are never short of recipes to try!

Remember, air fryers are all about making your life easier. So pop into one of our stores or browse online and buy one today. You'll be happy you did.

Now that Covid-19 is past its peak, one could state that the air purifier is no longer necessary. Here at DID, we couldn't disagree more. Air purifiers are a modern home essential because they ensure that the air you breathe is fresh and bacteria-free, meaning you are less likely to catch any stubborn viruses again.

From €100 Shark air purifiers right up to €650 Dyson air purifiers, we have it all here at DID and are ready to provide you with the best in air quality for your home. Each purifier in our collection uses HEPA filters that trap more than 99% of dust as it floats through the air. With each purifier in the range being easy to use and slick in design, we don't think that there are any bad options to choose from, regardless of your budget.

Last but not least, we have one of everyone's favourites, the coffee machine. If you are tired of making a cup of coffee all by yourself, we strongly recommend that you pick a coffee machine from our collection. Not only will the machines that we stock make your coffee for you, but they can also make different types of coffee. What more could you want?

Here in the store, we have coffee machines from leading companies such as Sage, Lavazza, and DeLonghi, and we also have a selection of pump coffee machines and pod coffee machines to cater for every budget. So your next coffee is never too far away.
