₹52,490

The LG PS-Q19YNZE is the better economic choice for anyone running an air conditioner heavily, because its ISEER of 5.10 cuts annual energy use by roughly a third against a 3 star unit. At light usage of two or three hours a day, the premium over a 3 star model takes considerably longer to repay.

Who the LG 1.5 Ton 5 Star AI DUAL Inverter Split AC is for

Buy it if: Households running an air conditioner six or more hours a day through summer, where the efficiency gap repays the higher purchase price within a few seasons.

Avoid it if: Occasional users cooling a room only a few hours a week, who will not recover the premium over a cheaper 3 star unit.

Who the LG 8kg 5 Star AI Direct Drive Front Load Washing Machine is for

Buy it if: Anyone who values water use and wash quality over cycle time, in a home with a level floor.

Avoid it if: Anyone needing laundry done quickly, or with intermittent water supply -- a front loader will not run part-filled.
