1. Clean & Prep
Clean With A Friendly Robo Cleaner:
Yeedi Vac Station
Spring cleaning is often a very strenuous process for the family as the months and months of cleaning backlog is squeezed into a short period of time to ready the house for Chinese New Year. From vacuuming to mopping and sorting to clearing, we could use some more hands to help out around the home. The great news is, robot vacuums and mops are here to help.
The Yeedi Vac Station gets the cleaning job done for you by precisely vacuuming and mopping your floor at the same time while you settle the other tasks. It features 3000Pa strong suction power that sweeps up dirt like a hurricane and a self empty station to automatically empty the dustbin routinely which you only have to clear out every 30 days or so. Start your CNY right with a new cleaning assistant.

Look Sharp:
Bruno Styling Handy Steamer
Ironing sometimes just takes too much time to get done. At times, we find a shirt or dress we like to wear for visiting only to realise that it has gathered some creases while sitting in our closet. Steamers have been an extremely convenient and easy solution for such cases.
The Bruno Styling Handy Steamer is a great tool to help crips out the creases and help you look fresh. Its portability gives you the freedom to use it anywhere and it gets ready super fast in only 25 seconds. It also helps steam out bad odours and removes 99% of bacteria to help you feel clean and good.
