Nowadays people are using more consumer goods like refrigerators or washing machines. Does this have more advantages or disadvantages?

It has been observed that more and more

people

are utilizing daily household

goods

as compared to previous times.

This

situation has both advantages and disadvantages.

However

, the merits are more than its demerits. On the downside, the introduction of various life

goods

such

as microwave, washing

machines

and so on has a few disadvantages. The major disadvantage is that it leads to a sedentary lifestyle of the

people

, which in turn adversely affecting their physical health. It is generally seen that, in

this

age of automation,

people

often hesitate to perform manual

work

in the presence of

machines

.

This

situation has negative consequences in terms of maintaining health standards as they rarely get a chance to burn calories in the absence of physical

work

.

For example

, in the past,

people

used to perform various household works by hands

such

as washing dishes and clothes, owing to which, they remained physically fit.

However

, in the contemporary world, these tasks are generally performed by automatic

machines

which do not give any chance to

people

for performing any exercise, thereby resulting in their poor health. On the positive sides, developing technology has innumerable benefits for the users The prominent advantage is that the consumer

goods

save plenty of

time

for them. It is primarily due to the fact that

machines

perform the tasks without taking any breaks and at a constant rate

that is

far higher than humans.

Thus

, the

time

taken to finish any task has reduced dramatically with the use of these life

goods

.

For example

, up to date microwave is equipped with all kind of facilities

such

as an oven, conventional heat and so on which not only cook the food items in very less

time

,

Remove the comma

apply

show examples

but

also

perform these task in bare minimum efforts. Yet another advantage of emerging technologies to help

people

in their domestic

work

is that it helps the individuals to enhance the multitasking of the

work

.

In other words

, a number of activities can be done simultaneously because one does not require himself to fully devote any task.

For example

, washing clothes, cooking food on microwave and washing dishes can be performed all together as

machines

only require an initial activity of starting it, whereas halting is automatically done by the internal programming after completing the

work

.

This

saves a great deal of

time

for those, who have limited

time

to complete house chores. To conclude, I believe advantages of technologies has outweighed its demerits because it saves a lot of

time

for the individuals which even encourage to spare some

time

for performing workout to tackle its major disadvantage of making

people

lazy.
