While you take some time off this week to spring clean for Chinese New Year, how about taking the opportunity to replace some of your worn off home appliances with these five luxurious ones we've selected just for you.
From the latest energy-saving washing machine to a desk lamp that will last you 40 years, we've got it all covered for you.
Check out our Chinese New Year Guide for all the best dining and holiday options this January.
1. LG's largest capacity front load washing machine
Newly launched in the market is the latest, fastest and largest capacity front load washing machine by LG. This washing machine uses LG's revolutionary TurboWash technology, which reduces the time required for the washing and rinsing cycles compared to conventional washing machines without sacrificing performance.
Backed by a 10-year warranty, this latest washing machine by LG runs on the Inverter Direct Drive motor, which reduces energy consumption by eliminating the belts and pulleys found in the conventional motors, which in turn reduces friction and reduces noise levels and vibration.
So if you're considering an upgrade plus electricity savings in the long run as well, this is a good investment to consider for your home this first quarter of 2012.

2. Dyson pedestal fan
Dyson's pedestal fan is really an air multiplier minus the fast-spinning blades of a traditional fan. It is basically an annular jet that draws in surrounding air, multiplying it by 18 times to produce the effect of a fan.
Easy to clean, tilt and adjust, it is no wonder that the Dyson pedestal fan is the latest must-have in every household.
Price: US$450
3. Sony Dash Information alarm clock
With Sony's HID-B70 Dash Information alarm clock, you can now go beyond the buzzer and stream playlists of personalized apps such as the latest news, weather, sports scores and social network updates.
There are also Internet radio and photo apps, where you can scroll through via the seven-inch touch screen. All you need to do is connect to your home's wireless network.
Dash will deliver fresh and up-to-the-minute content, available at a glance. The compact design allows it to be on your bedside, desktop or countertop. Featuring a lithium-ion battery, you can leave Dash on your counter or shift it from room to room.
