R2I'ed to Hyderabad - Experience using Electronics, Appliances in Hyderabad

Post by Return2Home »

Hi

I want to start this thread to gather experiences and local information from members that already R2I?ed and currently living in Hyderabad.
These days we can buy majority of products in India if you live in or around big cities but the price and availability of product vary from city to city.

In Hyderabad we all know that you can buy the same product in different stores but with lot of variation in price and quality. The experiences should help future R2I?ers like me to buy reliable products in Hyderabad and also save lot of time and money.




LED, LCD TV bought in U.S (Include any suggestions too)

  • If you have bought a TV from U.S, please share your experience like what converter are you using to convert PAL <----> NTSC? Make and Model of TV and Converter?
  • Where did you buy it from U.S or in HYD?
  • If U.S where did you buy and how much did you pay?
  • If HYD where did you buy and how much did you pay?
  • Are you using a step down transformer to convert 220V to 110V? Make and Model?
  • Where did you buy the step down transformer from U.S or in HYD?
  • If U.S where did you buy and how much did you pay?
  • If HYD where did you buy and how much did you pay?
  • What service are you using (Cable, Dish TV etc.)? How much are you paying?
  • What additional devices have you connected apart from your TV?



Refrigerator bought in U.S (Include any suggestions too)

  • If you have bought a Refrigerator from U.S, please share your experience like what step down transformer are you using? Make and Model of Refrigerator and transformer?
  • What is the size of your Refrigerator? Suggestions?
  • How many watts transformer do we need?
  • Where did you buy it from U.S or in HYD?
  • If U.S where did you buy and how much did you pay?
  • If HYD where did you buy and how much did you pay?
  • Have you connected your Refrigerator to a water outlet? 24/7
  • Does your Refrigerator have inbuilt water filtration system?
  • If not, have you connected your refrigerator to an external filtration system? Is this a good idea?
  • Did you have any issues with the Refrigerator?
  • If Yes, did you find a place in HYD where we can get it serviced?


Other Kitchen appliances bought in U.S

  • What other kitchen appliances are you using? Any suggestions?
  • Are you using a separate step down transformer to convert 220V to 110V? I am hoping we can use one transformer for all kitchen appliances as they are all NOT used at once.
  • Did you buy a espresso coffee maker from U.S?
  • If yes Make, Model and Price? Is this a good idea?

Please list any other electronics that you bought from U.S to use in HYD.





Thanks in advance!
