Price given for Samsung - AS18FCA(Forte Compact) includes installation charges [pipes and fitting] or not. by carats24

Standard installation would be done without charge. It includes bringing and installing the air conditioner unit in your house like the included 3 mtr copper pipe, fitting the outdoor unit, etc. But if extra wire, pipe or any other work required for putting the outdoor unit will be charged extra. Charges would vary from dealer to dealer and according to the tonnage. by Priti Panadi

Hi, I am planning to buy a microwave that will mainly be used for 2 to 3 people. Through your website I have shortlisted two models - Samsung G273V and LG -MG-396 WS. Please let me know which one is a better buy. Would you like to suggest another model. I have a budget of Rs 5,000. by akrk_kanhiya

Samsung G273V seems to be a good choice with 20 lts capacity and 6 preset programmes. by Priti Panadi

I am planning to buy a 32-inch LCD. I have short listed Panasonic 32LX75 and Hitachi L32A10A. Which one is better? Also, I am confused whether should I go for Sony as it is slightly expensive than my budget? Please suggest. by priyaashinde

Hitachi-L32S01A is better choice as it has higher contrast ratio, better connectivity (3 HDMIs), faster response time and it uses IPS Alpha Panel Technology which is later adopted by Panasonic. Secondly Sony’s V or S series models worth their price considering their high contrast ratio and equally good connectivity. So take demo of chosen models, and go for one which you find value for money. by Ganesh Pawar

Thanks for the previous reply and suggestion. Can you also give me feedback regarding Onida 29-inch Slim model that has a glossy look? How is the sound and picture of the TV? by shatabda

Onida - 29 TruSlim being flat CRT TV will have satisfactory picture and sound performance like other flat TVs, it has good sound output and connectivity including S-video and component input. But some users complain that its viewing screen seems smaller than 29 inch. So take demo of this Onida model along with other suggested models, to judge best one among them. by Ganesh Pawar
