consumers

By Rieva Lesonsky

When we hear the term consumer electronics, many of us tend to think of smartphones and watches, speakers, etc. But, in the last several years consumer electronics has broadened to encompass so much more. So let’s take a look at consumer electronics in the home.

There are a lot of products consumers are craving right now—and you only have a few days to get them and take advantage of the March Expo discounts from Alibaba.com.

Cleaning up the home

Consumer electronics in the home helps consumers live in a healthier environment. We’ve only just recently learned about how dust (and dust mites) can aggravate asthma and allergies. It’s essential to rid our homes of dust mites and there’s a slew of new, innovative vacuums to help us do that. Take a look at this UV Vibration Sanitizing HEPA Allergen Vacuum. It removes dust mites and pollen. It comes in several colors and the manufacturer says it’s a “3-in-1” device, since it’s can be used as a handheld vacuum or a stick vacuum. The supplier says the UV light that kills 99.9% of bacteria and other microorganisms.

Some consumers prefer to let the vacuums do all the work. They’re looking for something like the Mechanical Rotary Ash Mites Dust Sweeper Robot Vacuum. It comes with mops that make floor cleaning easier.

Essential oils

We all want our homes to smell good, but the days of spraying cans of artificial  smells are over. Today, more consumers want to add fragrance to their homes that smells more authentic and won’t choke you. Essential oils fill that need. One great way to spread the oils’ fragrance is using diffusers such as the Wood Grain Ultrasonic Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser. This model comes is available in seven LED color options, and since you mix the oil with water, it also serves as a humidifier.

Or your customers might like one that you can turn on and off using their Amazon’s Alexa or Google’s Home Assistant device, like the Smart Essential Oil Diffuser Voice App Diffuser, which comes in two different wood grains.

Since so many consumers spend endless hours in their cars, many try to make their drives as pleasant as possible. These air purifiers also emit fragrances from essential oils and negative ions (which are good for you) are made for use in automobiles.

Smart cup holders

Speaking of the car, check out these smart cup holders which can cool or heat a beverage. These have a temperature range from 21 degrees to 140 degrees.

Cooling Off

These small portable chargeable fans are sure to catch the eye of many consumers. The Portable Rechargeable USB Desk Pocket Hand Fans are perfect for travel and come in a variety of colors.

Lighting the way

LED lightbulbs have become a must-but for many consumers. These Landlite Energy-Saving bulbs can be controlled through Amazon’s Alexa or Google’s Home Assistant by connecting them to your home’s Wi-Fi network.
