Verdict
Overall full marks for the good service but it would have had been better had they ensured the reverse pick up guy picks up defective product from your home like Homeshop18 return procedure. Moreover select cities have return facility available free of cost. However they are also shrewd marketers as they launched onions at Rs 9 scheme which was a big hoax.
