These 6 Time-Saving Products Help Make Household Chores Easier
Ka 3in1 Laundry Capsules
image

Always spilling detergent on the floor or find it a hassle to measure it out? You could find detergent pods, like Ka’s 3in1 Laundry Capsules handy.

According to the Japanese brand, each capsule has 10 times the strength of ordinary washing detergent liquid, and has cleaning, antibacterial and deodorising properties – our laundry came out feeling clean and with a light freshly laundered scent.

All you have to do is toss one into the washing machine drum. How it works: Each pod has three pre-measured three liquids (no pouring or measuring needed), housed in a casing that dissolves in the wash. One capsule is recommended 2.5 to 6kg of laundry, and two for 7kg.

Plus, they can be conveniently tossed into the luggage (for when we can actually travel).

Each tub of Ka 3in1 Laundry Capsules (Universal and Colour) is priced at $29.90, available at NTUC FairPrice.

Roidmi Cordless Handheld Vacuum Cleaner S2

If you’ve yet to make the switch to a stick vacuum, you have been missing out. It actually makes vacuuming kind of fun — no more dragging a cumbersome canister. Consider the Roidmi S2, which does a pretty good job without the hefty price tags of competitors.

A charge of about two — 2.5 hours gives you more than enough juice (about 60 minutes) to clean a four-room HDB flat. It can be manoeuvred across the floor easily, and the soft roller brush picks up dirt and hair efficiently. There’s even an automatic LED light — this really helps in spotting dirt, crumbs and hair in dark corners, under furniture and on dark-coloured floors.

There are also various other accessories for mopping, cleaning the mattress and more, but some will have to be purchased separately.

Roidmi Cordless Handheld Vacuum Cleaner S2 is priced at $449, available on Lazada.
