Air Fryers
The Philips NA352/00 is a 9 L, 2300 W dual basket air fryer that cooks a full meal for four to six people in one go, at the cost of a large body and a dedicated 15 A socket.
Premium Pick
Soundbars
The Zebronics Juke Bar 9400 Pro is a 525 W Dolby 5.1 soundbar with wired satellites that gives loud, bassy sound for little money, but reliability and service reports hold it back.

The Eureka Forbes Dr Aeroguard 150 is a very cheap H13 HEPA purifier for small rooms under about 150 sq ft, with basic controls and slow clean-up in heavy smog.

The Voltas Beko DF14S2 is a 14-place dishwasher that cleans everyday Indian loads well at about 9.5 L a cycle and has a 10-year motor warranty, but it is louder than the LG and dries plastic poorly.
Best Value
