Christmas gifts from Clas Ohlson – for the person who loves smart-home gadgets and cross-line laser levels
Christmas shopping is well underway both online and in Clas Ohlson’s more than 200 stores – including nine here in the UK. And our friends at the popular Swedish retailer (which has a store up here in Newcastle) can already disclose what’s on many people’s wish lists this year.
“The smart home is a strong category, with, for instance, products such as weather stations and systems for controlling lighting and heating”, says Eva Berg, Head of Assortment at Clas Ohlson. “The Netatmo weather station is very popular and it is not a bad guess that this will be a popular Christmas gift. Netatmo gives you all information about, for example, temperature, air quality and noise level directly to your mobile phone.”
Another bestseller, particularly appreciated in Clas Ohlson’s Nordic markets – but also in rural homes across the UK – is the energy-saving stove fan.
“Customers especially appreciate how it quickly spreads the heat throughout the room, and the fact that it works without external power. Things you appreciate yourself are often something you like to buy for others”, Eva Berg continues.
“Everyday items such as tools are also popular Christmas gifts. For the DIY enthusiast, Christmas is usually a good time to finish home projects. For instance, we are seeing a very high interest in our special offering with a cross-line laser and distance meter.”
“Finally, all sorts of lighting products are popular this time of year. For someone who likes running or taking an evening walk, the Lumus beanie with a built-in LED light is a perfect gift.”
For more Christmas gift ideas, check out the Clas Ohlson online store, or find out the location of your nearest high-street branch. There are over 12,000 items available to buy online, and if you order by 6pm, Monday to Friday, you can collect your purchase from your nearest store the following day.
