## Plugs, voltage and apps

Home buyers ask first whether a product works with Kenyan sockets and supply. State the plug type and voltage. For smart products, say whether they need an app, a hub or a particular network band. Hidden requirements cause returns.

## Be honest about performance

Capacity, power use and speed claims should come from the manufacturer's data, not from guesses. Honest claims build trust, and returns for wrong or misleading items are costly.

## Stock by buyer

Households want reliable everyday appliances. Landlords want durable, simple units. Smart home buyers want easy setup. Describe the product for the buyer you expect.

## Common appliance mistakes

Not stating the plug type, ignoring stairs and delivery handling and claiming savings you cannot support. Be honest and specific.

## A typical scenario

A supplier lists a range of smart plugs with clear hub requirements and sees repeat orders. Illustrative example based on common cases, not a named vendor.

## Common mistakes

Listing models you do not hold. Vague titles. Skipping specs.

## Quick checklist

Pick three lines. Write clear titles. Add photos. Submit for review.
