To make sure you’re ready for the FIFA World Cup well in advance, here’s a selection of the appliances you’ll need to keep your home running smoothly and ensure you don’t miss a moment:

TV with special Soccer Mode

Several of the TV‘s in Samsung’s 2014 range have been practically custom-made to help you watch the World Cup, thanks to their special Soccer Mode.  Adding zoom and playback functions to your viewing, you can watch that awesome goal over and over again, and these TVs can even automatically record match highlights for you!

These TVs also include a number of other Smart features to quickly and simply connect them to the web and your home’s device network, so you can effortlessly share the action with your mates around the world.

High-quality big-screen viewing

Smart features, 3D glasses and the like are pretty neat overall, but you’re watching the football, not co-ordinating the moon landing.  Sometimes, all you need is a TV with a crystal clear picture and a really BIG screen that you and your mates can gather around to enjoy every moment.

If this sounds like music to your ears, this LG TV may be just what you need.  It has a big screen, Full HD resolution, and a 100Hz refresh rate for judder-free motion.  Everything you need, and nothing you don’t.

As a little bonus, the TV does feature connectivity to USB devices and even your Android smartphone, allowing you to enjoy their digital content on the big screen for those rare occasions when a match isn’t playing.

Enjoy a bit of privacy

You may not immediately see the benefit of a Blu-ray player during World Cup time.  After all, when there’s so much football being broadcast, why bother dusting off your collection of Buffy the Vampire Slayer discs?

But this LG Blu-ray player can prove a real asset in a home where not everyone is a football fanatic.  Its Private Sound mode lets you beam the TV’s sound directly to a compatible smart device, where it can be played back through some more modest speakers or a set of headphones, so you won’t have to disturb the rest of your household.

Might want to keep your cries of “GOOOOOOOOOOAL” to a whisper, though.

Watch at a time that suits YOU

This Samsung Blu-ray player also doubles as a PVR, with a 500GB hard drive for storing recorded media, in up to and including Ultra HD resolution.

If you’re not quite game enough to watch every single match of the World Cup as it happens (human beings do require a certain amount of sleep, after all), this could be just what you need to do a bit of time-shifting, so you can watch them when it’s the most suitable for you.

Plus, you’ll be able to keep all of your favourite matches recorded for later, and relive the glory over and over again.

Eat, entertain and be merry

“Waitaminute,” I hear you say, “that’s a fridge!  How will that help improve my World Cup experience?”

Hate to break this to you, but your frail human body cannot live on football alone, no matter how big a fan you are.  You’re still going to need food, and this fridge makes it simple and convenient to access said food.

This Samsung 3-door fridge includes an in-door water dispenser for quick refreshment, and the freezer includes a twist and serve ice maker that’s great for parties, such as when your mates are coming over to watch the game.

The wide double-door fridge is also ideal for entertaining, as you can easily fit entire platters on the wide and sturdy shelves, without having to rearrange all the items.

Clean up after yourself

Watching the World Cup can often lead to a certain amount of slackness when it comes to regular home maintenance and chores.  No-one really wants to tear themselves away from the game to do the washing up, do they?

This is when a great dishwasher, such as this popular model from Bosch, really comes in handy – it’s a cinch to load, then it does the work while you get back to the match.  Its Ecosilence drive motor means you shouldn’t be disturbed by the noise of the dishes washing while you watch the next match, plus you can set the machine to run at night and enjoy off-peak energy rates.

Stay pleasant to be around

You may feel pretty good after a monster non-stop binge of World Cup action, but unless you change your clothes every so often, you won’t smell very good.

This Electrolux front loader is an 8kg machine that can handle a big load all at once, if you’d prefer to limit your number of washes.  There are plenty of different wash modes to choose from, and if you can’t decide, its load sensing mode will adjust its settings to better clean your clothes.

Finally, the washer has been designed to also run quietly, meaning you can run it without disturbing the footy or any others in your home.
