Winter blues got you down? Not to worry! Evan Varsamis, our tech expert and CEO of The Gadget Flow, shares the best new gadgets that’ll keep you warm through the colder months, bring a sense of cosy to your living room and comfort foods to your kitchen. Let it snow – you’ll be ready for it.
Heated Blanket – If cold, bitter weather is the only thing keeping you from enjoying the great outdoors during the winter, then you need this snug-yet-rugged blanket with a highly portable, all-weather design. It’s also equipped with a heating feature that can warm up even the coldest of hearts.
Porcelain Sweater Lace Coffee Mug – Nothing can beat the joy of a warm cup of tea or coffee on a chilly winter morning, but to enjoy that cuppa even more, you need the right mug. Allow us to suggest these adorable porcelain ones, moulded with a cable knit design that might just match your sweater.
Macaron Merino Wool Cowl – Perhaps you’d prefer an ultra-cosy cowl to complement your coffee mug? Woven from superbly soft merino wool, this head-turning chunky knit cowl makes as much of a fashion statement as it does a statement about your attitude towards the temperature. The quality wool will never make you itch, and it’s hypoallergenic as well as safe for children and animals.
Towel Warmer – A matter of 20 minutes is all it takes to get your favourite towels and garments warm and toasty. Small enough to move from room to room as required, and equipped with an automatic shut-off feature for extra safety, this is the ultimate luxury for those freezing winter mornings.
Nari Narwhal USB Heated Slippers – With a cosy cotton design that fits snugly to your feet, and a USB-powered heating feature for extra warmth, these slippers are just what your tootsies need to carry them from the comfy bed to the cold kitchen (for coffee, of course) …and maybe back again.
Mountain Bar Mitts – The first victim of a cold-weather cycling commute is always the hands, but with these cleverly designed mitts, you can keep your digits toasty and still maintain a firm grip on the handlebars. What’s more, they’re easy to mount and remove as needed, so you don’t overheat your hands on the odd warm winter day.
All-Season Sled – Sledging in snowy winter is tons of fun, but then that poor sledge just sits in the closet the rest of the year. Not so with this genius design. Instead of requiring a slippery frozen surface, the SLICER provides its own – the sledge comes with an ice mould that can be filled with water and placed in a standard freezer. The resulting thin block of ice is then attached to the bottom of the sledge, and away you go!
The Traction Solution for Vehicles – Okay, so it might not keep you cosy, but it will help you get your vehicle unstuck in wintry conditions. Much more effective than a piece of wood, arduous shovelling or painful pushing, the simple Trac-Grabber system works with a variety of cars, vans and ATVS. The rubber base of the Trac-Grabber is secured to your tires with a thick strap, and the device is able to add traction and help you get your car out of the mud, ice or snow.
Double-Layered Touchscreen Gloves – Smartphone-friendly gloves aren’t anything new, but this updated design includes a leather wrist strap with magnetic snap closure and upgraded material for increased durability. Anti-slip dots provide maximised grip, to make accessing your device during those frosty winter days much easier and more comfortable.
Bluetooth Earmuff Headphones – Complete with a 30ft (9m) Bluetooth range, you can take calls and listen to music all while keeping your ears warm and toasty, thanks to the soft 100% wool material of these high-tech earmuffs. The genuine suede outer lining offers a chic look and luxurious feel.
