[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Hyewon] As interest in "homecations" (home + vacation) rises, more consumers are boldly investing in premium home appliances for comfortable rest and enjoyable leisure at home. According to a recent survey conducted by JobKorea and Albamon, 72.3% of adult men and women responded that they would "enjoy a homecation instead of traveling." Most respondents (84.2%) chose to rest at home due to "heat and fatigue caused by prolonged mask-wearing."
For coffee lovers planning a homecation, a fully automatic coffee machine that brews coffee with one touch is an essential item. If you want to enjoy coffee with the rich flavor of a caf? barista at home, we recommend the Swiss JURA brand ENA8 coffee machine. It allows you to enjoy a total of 10 specialty coffees with one touch, and you can also have small fun experiences like testing the coffee taste that varies depending on the ground beans or creating your own home caf? recipes with simple ingredients.
The ENA8, which embodies Switzerland's sophisticated coffee extraction technology, brews coffee that captures the original flavor of beans from different regions, giving a special feeling as if traveling the world in an ordinary daily life. The "Pulse Extraction Process (P.E.P)" evenly sprays water on the coffee grounds to maximize the original taste of the beans, and the "Aroma G3 Grinder" grinds beans twice as fast to preserve aroma, extracting perfectly balanced espresso. Additionally, JURA's proprietary milk foam technology allows you to enjoy velvety textured milk variation coffees such as latte macchiato, flat white, and cappuccino with one touch. The 'Vacuum Clean System' removes leftover coffee residues inside the machine so you can enjoy the first cup deliciously, and the 'One-Touch Automatic Cleaning System' automatically cleans with hot water, ensuring hygienic management during summer without worries.
If you want to fully experience the movie theater atmosphere that was hard to feel for a while due to COVID-19, a 4K beam projector that allows you to watch vivid videos on a large screen over 120 inches at home is perfect.
Optoma's 4K beam projector 'SUHD61' offers the best image quality and color for creating a home theater environment. It features Texas Instruments (TI) DLP 4K UHD chip and XPR technology, a DLP single-chip system's optical semiconductor, and a specially designed premium 4K precision lens to deliver ultra-high-definition images. It displays 8.3 million pixels, surpassing the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) 4K UHD resolution certification standard of at least 8 million active pixels, boasting delicate and accurate image quality. The SUHD61 reproduces 170 million colors, providing excellent rich color expression.
As you enjoy your vacation at home, the amount of food consumed at home increases. Especially in the hot and humid summer, odors and insect infestations caused by food waste can cause unbearable stress for those enjoying a homecation. Food waste disposers that allow you to enjoy fruits like watermelon without worry are popular.
The premium food waste disposer brand "ECOCE" features an "Eco Dry Storage Function" that allows long-term storage of food waste without worries about odor or spoilage. Using a high-strength 3-stage impeller with a millstone method, it completely dries and grinds food waste into powder, reducing volume by about 77%. The high-temperature drying and air circulation blower method sterilizes 99.9% of food waste, eliminating concerns about bacterial growth. Additionally, it operates at an average noise level of 24.6 dB, allowing worry-free use anytime. ECOCE comes in three colors?Eco Green, Eco Beige, and Eco Pink?with a classic design, making it suitable as an interior appliance as well.
