How to choose during the sale
- Size it to your home — air-fryer litres for your family, purifier CADR for your room, washer kg for your laundry.
- Check running costs — filter replacements, energy rating and consumables matter more than a small price gap.
- Confirm installation and service — free installation, demo and service-centre coverage in your city.
- Stack bank offers carefully — big appliances are where card offers and no-cost EMI save the most.
- Read the warranty — motor and compressor warranties are often longer than the product warranty.
