A smart socket, a pull-out countertop and other accessories will help you save time and effort, and sometimes even manage the house without getting up from the sofa.

1 Light-blocking curtain “Bengta”, 1,199 rubles

And this means that you no longer need to hem curtains and adjust them to length. You can simply arm yourself with scissors and do everything in a matter of minutes, the edge will remain smooth, and the threads will not stick out. Another bonus: this fabric does not let in light in the same way as blackout curtains.

2 Portable induction panel “Tillreda”, 7,999 rubles

Everyone who has dealt with induction cookers knows how convenient it is to use them. You can set a timer, and the gadget will turn off exactly when it is necessary; the boiling liquid will not flood and will not extinguish the burner. And a portable model is useful not only in the country. For example, this two-burner panel can fully replace a stationary hob in a small kitchen. Or use it as an additional one: take it out when you need to cook a lot of dishes at once (for example, for a holiday). The panel does not heat up during operation, so it can be removed immediately after cooking.

3 Controlled socket “Trodfri”, 1,199 rubles

4 Retractable work surface “Utrusta”, 4,500 rubles

An additional pull-out area will solve the problem with the lack of space on the countertop. Moreover, the structure can be immediately equipped with everything necessary: for example, put a knife and a cutting board there.

It is convenient to carve and prepare products on a mobile countertop, besides everything you need will already be at hand. 

5 Mirror “Frack”, 469 rubles

This wall mirror is convenient not only because it frees up space on the countertop around the sink. Thanks to the retractable mechanism, you will not have to make unnecessary movements and fuss during the fees. You will be able to adjust the tilt, move and move the mirror without touching the surface with your hands, cleaning will become easier. And the magnifying side is useful during the application of makeup and hygiene procedures: you do not need to look in your makeup bag every time or bring an additional accessory from another room. This mirror can be used both as an addition to the main one, and independently, for example, if there are shelves hanging over the sink.

6 Roll-up curtain “Quadrille”, 10,499 rubles

Another component of the smart home system is a roll-up curtain with remote control.
