06Plugs, 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.
07Be 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.
08Stock 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.
09Common appliance mistakes
Not stating the plug type, ignoring stairs and delivery handling and claiming savings you cannot support. Be honest and specific.
