is time-saving.

In other words

, the advent of home appliances

such

as dishwashers, washing machines and vacuum cleaners has allowed the majority of housework to be done in a short amount of time.

For instance

, homeowners can use those machines simultaneously to finish many tasks at the same time, allowing them to use the rest of the day dealing with more pressing matters

as work.

Besides

time-saving, these machines complete the tasks more efficiently than humans can by using their hands.

However

, the dependence on using machines at home does have some disadvantages.

For example

, if one of the devices stopped working due to a malfunction, that would put the task on hold until the machine is fixed, which is a stressful situation, because of the

In addition

relying on machines can make people helpless when they stop, and physically unhealthy, the advantages of them saving time and finishing work efficiently is more beneficial.
