three in one

Single multipurpose item

Three in one describes something that combines three functions, components, or identities in a single unit.

The phrase appears in product names for multipurpose items: three-in-one oil, three-in-one shampoo.

In Christian theology, the Trinity is described as three in one—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as one God.

It's a three-in-one printer: it copies, scans, and faxes.
