Let’s be real — you’ve been doing everything in the same space for over a year, and your domestic setup has seen better days. If you’re tired of sriracha stains on your sweatpants that won’t wash out and losing food inside your cluttered fridge, this sweet array of Whirlpool home appliances from Lowe’s will give your digs a much-needed post-pandemic makeover.
Wash away the stains of last year
Chances are your grungy comforter needs a deep clean, and this machine can tackle that hefty job — and go gentle on your intimates, too. This is the first washer to offer a removable agitator that you can simply pull out when you need space for bigger loads. Add in the automatic dispenser that measures out just the right amount of soap and the built-in scrub brush, and say goodbye to those hot sauce stains.
Disinfect your forks and plates
If you’ve become a bit of a germaphobe over the past year — and who hasn’t — this 24-inch dishwasher is for you. In addition to its brilliant sensor cycle that automatically picks the right cycle for your load, the sanitizing option kills 99.9% of bacteria.
De-clutter your fridge
If you started cooking at home more over the past year and plan on keeping the habit, you’re going to need a fridge that can organize everything. This four-door beauty has shelves, bins, and drawers that will do the trick. The fingerprint-resistant steel is pretty sweet, too.
Get an oven that stays clean
Your oven has likely taken a hit after a year of quarantine baking, so why not invest in a shiny new one that will clean itself? This one has a smart touchscreen that remembers your crispy tots setting, and it’s WiFi- and voice-enabled so you can tell it to start baking from the sofa.
Kick your old-school can to the curb
If your cleaning frenzy has you making tons of curbside trash runs, this compactor will make things easier. Just step on the pedal to open it, drop your non-recyclable garbage in there, fire up the one-third-horsepower motor, squish it all down, and repeat.
