convenience
Effortless at hand
Convenience is ease of access or use—whatever makes something simpler or more comfortable.
A convenience store stays open late for easy access.
Modern conveniences are amenities that reduce effort: running water, electricity, appliances.
Something done at your convenience happens when it suits you.
A marriage of convenience serves practical purposes rather than love.
As an adjective, convenience describes ready-made products: convenience foods, convenience meals.
