Get your home ready for a season of easy, stylish entertaining with appliances designed to keep hosting effortless.

From outdoor entertaining to opulent Christmas feasts our must-have appliance list will make the festive season a breeze.


1. Portable Pizza Oven

When long summer days call for outdoor dining, a pizza oven is your go-to for simple yet crowd-pleasing meals. Serve up perfect pizzas and enjoy more time outside with friends and family.

The Ziipa Piana Pizza Oven isn’t just about cooking delicious pizzas; its sleek, compact design and on-trend colour add a stylish touch to your space. Foldable feet make it easy to store and move.


Large Capacity Air Fryer.

An air fryer is a must when cooking for a crowd. No need to stress over side dishes during the holidays. An air fryer offers the flexibility to cook multiple dishes at once, freeing up your main oven for larger roasts.

Upgrade to a large-capacity air fryer like the Philips 3000 Series 9L Dual Basket Air Fryer - its two separate drawers allow you to prepare two sides simultaneously—or go big with the Kenwood Air Fryer Oven 25L, which even includes a built-in rotisserie for added versatility

4. Standing Fan

Keep guest rooms cool and comfortable these holidays. The fresh breeze of a fan is great for hot summer nights and helps keep pesky mosquitos at bay.

The Swan Nordic Pedestal Fan offers a sleek design with three power settings and an adjustable tilt, blending seamlessly with any decor while providing practical comfort.


4. Coffee Machine

Quickly and easily serve morning coffee to a crowd by opting for a classic coffee maker this holiday. Set aside your one-cup machine for a practical coffee maker ready to serve multiple guests.

The Haden Retro Style Coffee Maker offers a retro vibe with a modern twist, brewing up to 12 cups with a customizable strength setting. Want to set it and forget it? Program it to start brewing just before guests wake up.

Prefer something timeless? The Breville Aroma Style Electronic Drip Coffee Maker brings classic style with a stainless steel finish and black accents. Its 12-cup capacity and thermostatically controlled hot plate ensure every guest enjoys a perfectly hot cup of coffee, even after the brewing cycle is done.

5. Robot Vacuum

Enjoy relaxed hosting this season with a robot vacuum that handles the mess while you entertain. With guests coming in and out, whether from the garden or the beach, a robot vacuum will keep your home looking neat and tidy.

The Xiaomi Robot Vacuum Cleaner S10 not only vacuums but also mops, and it's easily managed through an app so you can schedule cleanings without lifting a finger.

Make the holidays a relaxing occasion with appliances designed to elevate your home and make your life easier.
