Adult Like a Boss With These 9 Products To Make You More Productive
* Becoming an adult means doing annoying tasks like laundry and vacuuming
* These handy gadgets save time and headaches
* Fun devices like a padded Bluetooth sleep mask can also make the mundane more enjoyable
One of the saddest parts of growing up is realizing things aren’t as simple as they once seemed: Santa doesn’t bring all those Christmas presents, your Amazon Prime account does. If you leave your clothes on the floor, they won’t magically reappear clean in your closet, but instead start piling up into a fashionable obstacle course.
Luckily, technology has now made mundane, everyday tasks quicker and easier. From lightweight and portable coffee makers that brew single-cup servings to personal steamers that warm water in seconds, you can save yourself time and hassle. Many will also make your life more enjoyable, such as a padded eye mask that features Bluetooth speakers to sing you to sleep.
