It’s no secret that new homes are getting smaller and smaller – especially when it comes to BTO flats. So being smart about the appliances you buy is vital to maximising your limited space.

Overloaded power sockets are as much a hazard as they are an eyesore. But sometimes it’s inevitable, especially when every family member is on their device 24/7.
The PowerBulb by Mega Tiny Corp – a detachable bulb that has in-built USB ports – allows you to turn your lamps into charging areas, and is great for shared spaces.
Besides the fact that you’re preventing a fire hazard, it also comes in useful for your bedside when you’re reading a book or catching up on work. There are separate switches that control the light as well, so you don’t have to worry about not being able to charge when the bulb is off.

Having both a standing fan and purifier in your home takes up both floor and tabletop space. The Dyson Pure Cool Link TP03 Tower Purifier lets you have the best of both functions with just one device.
The purifier section filters out dust and dirt particles in the air to give you better air quality while the fan function keeps you cool. The best part about it is that it’s bladeless too, which means cleaning isn’t a tedious affair that requires a great deal of patience and a brush anymore.

With Singapore’s crazy hot weather, air conditioners are more of a need than a want. But they take up plenty of energy and contribute significantly to our monthly electricity bills. The Super Multi HW system by Daikin not only functions as an AC, but also as a water heater.
While the air-con is on blast, it also churns out waste heat which runs through a system connected to your home’s water heater. This reduces the electricity used for both processes, while still providing you cool comfort, shiok hot water and a smaller carbon footprint on the environment.

The retractable leg massager can also be stowed under the sofa to minimise the space occupied.
