A Twitter user posted a video of different appliances that appear to make the lives of Asians much easier, leaving some viewers in other countries swooning with envy.
“That grain dispenser. The foldable washing machine. The table plate warmer. The Hyundai steamer. The fruit & vegetable cleaner” sighed one commenter.

The video was originally posted on TikTok on the @vivifuture.home account. And while that particular video appears to have been taken down, there are many others that feature equally enviable appliances.
But in the video that @shongani, who hails from South Africa, posted on March 20, which has been viewed a whopping 4.9 million times, there’s a multigrain dispenser, a blender with a cover that muffles its loud sounds, a multi-level steamer, a gadget that seems to disinfect raw meat and clean vegetables, another that coats sausages on a stick with eggs, a foldable washing machine, and all sorts of other devices and appliances, all designed to make modern life easier than ever.
At any rate, some commenters got very interested.
Others just found the videos to be soothing to watch.
One netizen pronounced herself to be a “convert” to Asian appliances and posted a similar video.
Others just commented about what gadgets from the video they coveted.
And some commenters just wanted them all.
Most of these appliances are manufactured in China, as one netizen helpfully pointed out, and others in South Korea. In other words, they’re certainly not available everywhere in Asia!
