The Products We're Buying to Make Our Lives Easier in 2024

Our 2024 mantra? Making things simpler and as stress-free as possible for ourselves. These are the products we're buying ASAP to help make this year our easiest, breeziest and most fabulous yet.

Papier

With the new year very much in full swing, we're easing out of holiday mode and returning to full productivity. 

While we still may be enjoying a cheeky cocktail on weekends, or packing the perfect picnic to watch a summer sunset, we're also adding "get organised" to our 2024 to-do list. 

Achieving that goal is now easier than ever, thanks to life-hacking and time-saving products that are as useful as they are pretty. 

From speakers that help you plan your shopping to spa-like saunas at home and everything in between, these are the products helping us get it together in 2024.

Ring

Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Camera, $129

While we love getting out and about, one thing we hate about having an active social life is having to leave our fur babies at home, alone. But thanks to the new Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Camera, we no longer have to worry about what they get up to when we're not there to watch (and coo over) their every move. 

With 360° pan and 169° tilt coverage of every room - all controlled by your phone - the security camera catches all the cute and mischief-making moments our pets indulge in while we're away. What did we spy when we tried it? A few stolen socks (or three), a trawl through the office garbage bin and a whole heap of gorgeous, puppy dog snoozes.

The best part? You can also use the camera's Two-Way Talk feature to stop them in their tracks - or, in our case, share a few "I love yous" in between meetings.
