What is a household appliance? 

Domestic appliances, or Household Goods, is a category of products that make everyday life easier by helping you with a variety of household chores. In this category, you will find appliances both small and large that support you in cooking, cleaning, food storage, laundry and many other aspects of home management. White goods include everything from fridges, washing machines and dishwashers to smaller appliances such as hoovers, mixers and coffee makers. 

How do you choose the right white goods? 

  1. Purpose and functionality: First of all, think about what purpose you need the appliance for. Do you need a new fridge to accommodate larger purchases? Or are you interested in a multifunctional food processor to improve your food preparation? Choose the appliance that best suits your daily needs.  
  1. Energy efficiency: When choosing household appliances, pay attention to the energy class of the appliance. The higher the energy class, the less energy the appliance uses, which translates into lower electricity bills. This is especially important for large appliances such as washing machines, fridges and dishwashers that are used regularly. 
  1. Size and capacity: Make sure the appliance you choose is the right size and capacity for your space and needs. For example, if you have a small kitchen, it is worth considering compact appliance models that take up less space but still offer high functionality. 
  1. Additional features: Modern household appliances often offer many additional functions that can make everyday life much easier. Examples include a fridge with a No Frost function, which prevents frost build-up, or a dishwasher with a fast wash programme. Before buying, it is worth considering which of these features will be most important to you. 
  1. Design and interior fit: White goods are not just about functionality, they are also part of the décor of your home. Choose appliances that will match the style of your interior. Modern white goods are available in a variety of colours and designs that can enhance the character of your kitchen or bathroom.
