5 Fab Finds for Your "Trentahin" Loved Ones

Ah, the “trentahin.” You probably know one, are one, or are about to become one. In the Philippines, this fun term lovingly describes those in their 30s—a period often characterized by a bit less partying, more embracing of adult responsibilities, and a growing love for comfort, convenience, and an early bedtime. 

They’re past their wild college days, but not quite ready for full-on tita/tito status. They’re in that sweet spot where practicality meets a lingering desire for cool tech. So, what do you get the “trentahin” in your life? Something that says, “I see you, I appreciate your newfound love for homebody life, and I support your journey into sensible adulthood.” Here are some perfect gift ideas that celebrate their unique stage in life:

1. Hyundai 1.25L Coffee Maker to fuel the “trentahin” grind

Why it’s perfect: Because the energy they used to get from a good night’s sleep now comes in a hot, delicious cup of coffee. Plus, it holds 1.25L—enough for multiple servings to get them through a workday, a toddler tantrum/a pet’s zoomies, or just a quiet Sunday morning. Adulting starts with a good brew, not just good intentions.

2. Xiaomi Smart Camera to keep an eye on what matters

Why it’s perfect: They can now watch their naughty dogs or cats, check if the parents are okay, or even look in on babies, all from their smartphone. It’s for those moments when they need to know if their aspin is sleeping soundly or if the cat is finally using the actual scratch post instead of the sofa. Because nothing says “trentahin” like obsessing over what your pet is doing while you’re at work.

3. mWell Power Watch to track their journey to being “healthy-ish”

Why it’s perfect: It counts steps, tracks sleep (since good sleep is a luxury nowadays), and maybe reminds people to drink water. It encourages taking a quick walk instead of watching more TV or moving when they’re too focused on working. It’s perfect for the trentahin who say, “I’ll start my diet tomorrow,” but still want to know how many calories they burn each day.

4. Jabees PEACE Pillow Speaker to achieve a better sleep because they’re usually sleepless

Why it’s perfect: It’s designed to easily slide under a pillow, giving a cozy audio experience without headphones. It’s ideal for relaxing, falling asleep, or simply enjoying some quiet time without feeling disconnected from the rest of the world. After all, what’s better than a peaceful night? A peaceful night listening to your favorite true crime stories or some relatable adulting podcasts.

5. Amazon Echo Dot to provide assistance to their busy lives

Why it’s perfect: “Alexa, turn off the lights.” “Alexa, play some chill OPM.” or “Alexa, what’s the weather like tomorrow?” This makes it easy to control smart devices, listen to music, get news, and set reminders (since their memory isn’t what it used to be). It’s like having a dependable helper who won’t judge late-night snacks or silly, dumb questions.

These thoughtful, practical, and slightly cheeky gifts will surely delight your “trentahin” loved ones. They’ll enjoy the gesture, the humor, and how these gifts can improve their home life.
