The number of customers who prefer to check for different appliances online to decide what they should purchase is high. In contrast, most of them prefer to buy major appliances form different types of stores. A trend in customer behavior was observed that they prefer to purchase less pricy appliances from different online platforms where they are highly concerned to purchase the high pricy and major appliances, as there is a fear of faulty functional product they may get or they have trust issues with post-sale service cannot be offered by the retailer.

They are also providing an option to choose a product online and get it delivered from their store and vice versa.
