Household Appliances

Being a first-time house owner is a significant life milestone, and the next step after owning a new house is to decorate it the way one would want. Purchasing new appliances, and home decor items and accessories can often get exhausting, but it is important that one pays close attention to the things they would need. From buying a new refrigerator, to purchasing furniture and other items, one has to keep a list of all the essential household appliances they have to purchase for their new house.

Here is a list of some of the essential household appliances one has to purchase, to ensure they stay comfortably.

Television

Every household today has a TV set. With television brands now unveiling models that not only come with better technology, but are also relatively cheaper, buying a modern, chic TV set is no longer considered a luxury. In fact, smart TVs today are more affordable than ever before, with brands like Xiaomi and VU releasing models that come with innovative features and high-end specs at pocket-friendly prices.

For instance, the Xiaomi Mi 4C Pro 32 inch HD Ready Smart LED TV is available at just Rs. 12,499, and is also widely considered among the best smart TVs in India under this budget range. Thus, one doesn’t have to spend exorbitant amounts to buy a new, modern smart TV, which also reduces the financial burden when they are either moving into a new house, or are renovating their current living space.

Refrigerator

Refrigerators have become an integral part of modern households, and we rely on refrigerators to provide us with much needed reprieve, particularly during the harsh summer months. Furthermore, refrigerators also help us in storing away our food items, dairy products and vegetables, without having to worry about them getting spoilt.

Depending upon the number of people living in a household, one can opt for a single-door or double-door refrigerator. It is also important to consider the refrigerator’s capacity while purchasing a new model. For instance, the LG 260 L 3 Star Frost Free Double Door Refrigerator comes with a smart inverter compressor and 260L capacity, making it ideal for families with 4-5 members. It also comes with a 3-star energy rating, and is considered by many to be the best refrigerator under Rs. 25,000.

Washing Machine

Similar to refrigerators and television sets, washing machines have become indispensable for Indian households. Gone are the days when you had to sacrifice your weekends to wash your clothes manually. With washing machines now becoming prevalent, one needn’t worry about their laundry day, or about spending hours washing their dirty laundry.

One can either opt for a top-loading washing machine or a front loading washing machine, with front-loading washing machines inherently offering several advantages over the top-loading models. The Bosch 7 kg Fully-Automatic Front Loading Washing Machine comes with an in-built heater, and is priced just under Rs. 30,000. With several top-of-the-line features and attractive warranties, it is a steal at its current price.

Water Purifier

Considering the amount of contaminants and chemicals we now find in our water, water purifiers have become essential appliances in modern homes. Using new-age filtration systems, water filters purify the water, making it safer for us to drink without worrying about heavy metals or other harmful contaminants. Most of the modern water filters use multiple filtration systems, and remove the contaminants using reverse osmosis (RO), ultraviolet rays (UV), ultrafiltration (UF) and total dissolved solids (TDS) processes.

Air Conditioner

With summers now becoming unbearable, buying air conditioners has become a necessity, rather than a luxury. We can now find affordable air conditioning units that come with star ratings, which signify the energy efficiency of the unit. Air conditioning brands, such as LG, Carrier, Voltas and O’ General have been rolling out air conditioning units that are environmentally friendly, as they come with ec0-friendly refrigerants that do not contribute to the depletion of the ozone layer. For instance, the Onida 1 Ton 3-Star Split AC (Iris IR123IRS) is considered to be one of the best ACs under Rs. 25,000, and comes with the eco-friendly R-32 refrigerant, along with a 3-star rating.

Microwave Oven

Microwave ovens have also become commonplace in most of the Indian households, as they provide greater convenience than traditional heating methods. Whether you want to defrost something, or heat up your food, microwave ovens give you easy solutions without worrying about turning on the stove.

Vacuum Cleaner

Most of us today rely on our vacuum cleaners to keep our homes spiffy and clean. Considering working professionals do not have enough time to manually clean their homes, while homemakers are usually busy tending to other urgent matters, vacuum cleaners have become essential appliances, and enable us to stay safe and healthy without worrying about dust accumulating inside our homes.
