Prepare your home for the arrival of Christmas

Christmas is inevitably approaching. Even before they appear in all their glory to delight both young and old, we should thoroughly prepare for them. Yes, we mean cleaning and decorating the household, buying or making gifts for loved ones, and baking all those Christmas cookies that make Christmas taste so delicious.

Sometimes less is more with a smile

Some people look down on pre-Christmas preparations and embark on them with reluctance, while others have been waiting all year and indulge in pre-Christmas preparations with a joyful song on their lips. We have different personalities, and Christmas preparations are not just a "piece of cake". However, everything is easier if we approach it positively. As the saying goes, if you tackle it with gusto, half the work is done. You should, however, adopt the rule that whatever gets done will be just enough for a perfect Christmas. Because they will come even if your windows aren't washed and you've "only" baked three types of cookies. Forget about midnight cleaning and baking; rather, use that time for contemplation and perceiving the magic of Advent.

Let it sparkle

And to make cleaning go faster, we bring you a few tips for electrical helpers from the Slovak brand Orava, with which you can manage cleaning easily. For example, washing windows... Hard work and back pain are over with the arrival of the Orava Lautus-1 cordless window cleaner with suction.



It works like a small vacuum cleaner; just wash the window with water and a little detergent, and then simply "pass" the window from top to bottom with the Lautus-1 to suck up tiny dirt and dirty water - and the window shines with cleanliness. No polishing with newspapers or special cloths! Thanks to the wiper width of up to 28 cm, window washing is really fast. You can easily handle French windows too! The Lautus-1 is also excellent for washing mirrors, tiles, and shower enclosures.
The second clever helper is the Orava Steameasy handheld garment steamer, which, in addition to regular "ironing," can also be used for cleaning stools, fabric armchairs, sofas, and curtains. With the power of hot steam, it also removes odors, bacteria, viruses, and mites from the textile – just attach the included brush attachment. Your home textiles will thus be clean without having to wash or deep-clean them.



And thirdly, a handy cleaning aid is the extra quiet and powerful Orava Volcano bagged vacuum cleaner. The energy-saving ECO motor with excellent suction power of 160 W guarantees a meticulously vacuumed floor, crevices, and parquet. You can regulate the power as needed. While handling the vacuum cleaner, you can listen to Christmas carols and make household chores more pleasant. Noise will no longer bother you, as the noise level at full power is only 68 dB. The accessories include a floor nozzle, crevice nozzle, round brush nozzle, parquet nozzle, and turbo floor nozzle, which is a very decent arsenal for fighting crumbs and dust in the home.

Sweet and Merry

What would Christmas be without Christmas baked goods?! Linzer cookies, *šuhajdy* (chocolate cups), gingerbread, Parisian crescents, Christmas walnut cake... Every family has its cookie repertoire that must not be missing from the festive table. The Orava Chef-3 kitchen robot will gladly help you with pre-Christmas baking and cooking. It works in five ways - kneads, mixes, whips, blends, and even grinds meat. It tackles the job thanks to six speed levels and a Pulse mode and is not afraid of even the most daring cooking challenges. With its help, you can knead dough for homemade bread, whip up a light cream for Parisian crescents, prepare cocktails, blend creamy soup or sauce, and grind meat for honest homemade meatballs. It is made of highly durable materials to serve you faithfully for many years.

Fish should also not be missing from the Christmas Eve dinner. Whether you're frying carp horseshoes or another floating delicacy, this year, bet on healthier baking and frying – instead of hot oil, bake with hot air. The Orava Airy-4 air fryer is great for this. It has eight preset cooking programs, but also allows you to set the temperature up to 200 °C and the timer up to 60 minutes. It boasts an extra-large, 7-liter frying basket and saves you up to 60% of time compared to regular baking and frying. However, food prepared this way is primarily healthier, easier to digest, beautifully crispy on the outside, and nicely juicy on the inside.

The True Christmas Atmosphere

Once you have the house cleaned and the cookies baked, you still need to "doll up" the whole home for Christmas. Lots of lights, the scent of pine needles or cinnamon with citrus, it simply must be. And when Christmas carols are playing throughout the home, it's wonderful! In the offer of the Slovak brand Orava, you will find Christmas LED lights and Christmas string lights. Whether you choose colored lights or noble white light in a warm or cool shade, they will all elevate the mood in your home to a festive atmosphere and the expectation of Christmas miracles.



To satisfy all senses, the Christmas scent should also not be missing. Just add water to the Orava HUM-42 ultrasonic air humidifier and drop a few drops of essential scented oil into it – some love the scent of apples and cinnamon, some like the scent of pine needles, and others find the scent of citrus Christmassy... which one will you choose?
