The '10kg Drum-Type Washer-Dryer Series' was developed to address customer concerns such as 'too expensive,' 'lack of installation space,' and 'long wash-dry cycles,' securing the No.1 spot in the large appliances category. Priced under ¥100,000 and designed more compactly than standard drum-type models, it fits easily into limited spaces and is widely favored by both single-person households and families. In June 2026, the model was upgraded with an automatic detergent and fabric softener dispenser, reducing the hassle of manual measuring and enhancing laundry convenience.

Small Appliances Category No.1: 'LED Ceiling Light for 6-Tatami Rooms (Dimmable)'

[Price] ¥2,990 (tax included) [Product Page] https://www.nitori-net.jp/ec/product/8380201/

The 'LED Ceiling Light for 6-Tatami Rooms (Dimmable)' secured the top position in the small appliances category, combining compact size with sufficient brightness.

Despite its compact diameter of approximately 40cm, it provides ample illumination for a 6-tatami (approx. 10㎡) room. The stepless dimming function allows precise brightness adjustment for various scenarios, such as reading or relaxing.
