abhi90 Posted October 13, 2020 Report Share Posted October 13, 2020 Yes, it still holds true. General and Mitsubishi make great quality ACs. Daiking or LG would be my second go to option but in your budget you can get a Mitsubishi or General. I doubt he'll get General in his budget. But it's worth getting it for 10-15k extra.

SuperT Posted October 13, 2020 Report Share Posted October 13, 2020 I doubt he'll get General in his budget. But it's worth getting it for 10-15k extra.I think he might just get it in that range during Diwali sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never prefer to buy these appliances from online. A lot of the stores also offer good discounts and cashbacks to compete with online stores. Vijay Sales or trusted neighborhood stores sometimes match the online prices, specially around Diwali. I was getting a 2 ton General/Mitsubishi for around 65k last year, ended up getting a Mitsubishi. The stores sometimes even give freebies so the deal works out to be as good if not better than online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This damn heat with humidity is absolutely killing me and was thinking of buying an AC for a long time, want to finally pull the trigger during the Diwali sale. Looking for a 2 TON AC with really high quality parts that is going to last me a very long time. Budget is around 60k. Any idea which company and model would be good. If i remember correctly mitusubishi & general used to make really high quality AC. Not sure if its still true and finding their products is kind of difficult. Spend premium, get General. Close the query. Thank you. Thank you, though the problem is that finding General & Mitsubshi online is almost impossible, both Flipkart & Amazon dont have them. 31 minutes ago, HotSonix said: Mitsubishi or Daikin or lg will do . Samsung if you find copper condenser If you live near coastal areas with high humidity get a non inverter ac or look for inverter ac made spec for these regions Yup I live in the costal area right next to a large lake, the humidity here is absolutely insane. Today its 80%, usually its around 80-90%. Will take your suggestion and get a non inverter ac. 28 minutes ago, SuperT said: 44 minutes ago, i_rock098 said: Hi Guys, Any suggestion for a good AC?

I can extend the budget by 5k thats alright especially if I get a product thats going to last me a very long time. Thank you so much for your kind advice. So I should look for 2TON non inverter AC from General/Mitsubishi in around the 65k range right? Also I guess this needs to be found in physical stores like Chroma/RD/Vijay Sales as online i dont see any 2TON in stock by these 2 brands.

It's best to get the AC from a store, they will provide better after sale services like installation as well. You can wait a couple of days and let the online sales start it will give you more bargaining power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad was suggesting that if we get General or Mitsubishi which use imported parts wont the service cost of parts or maintenance be really expensive compared to the tier 2 brands like Hitachi & Daikin which are made in India if I am correct?. How has your experience of service, spare parts & maintenance been with Mitsubishi? Edited October 13, 2020 by i_rock098 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have had mine for a good 13 years now. Been getting it serviced regularly and it's still chugging along just fine with zero issues. Thankfully when I was buying it, a friend who worked with BlueStar at the time convinced me to go for General never mind the cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How has your experience of service, spare parts & maintenance been with Mitsubishi? Installation was on time, luckily had no issues so no service or maintenance required till now. Your Dad is right the parts will definitely be more costly but then again the chances of them failing or needing repair is less compared to other brands. It's a call you need to make. Also, I believe Mitsubishi provides 7-10 years condenser warranty depending on model which is pretty awesome. For other parts I suggest you get the extended warranty for piece of mind.

DinJo Posted October 13, 2020 Report Share Posted October 13, 2020 Mitsubishi has 2 brands Heavy Industries and Electrical both are very good, later targeted towards household consumers. Both units have extremely good cooling and very long life. The only downside is cost you will not even get basic copper pipe with these AC's along with some other pipes and the cost of AC's are usually high compared to other brands.These models would be available with Mitsubishi sellers mostly which you can search and I think there are some in Powai. Other AC's which can be recommended are Carrier , Daikin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General & Mitsubishi seem to have really high praises here makes me strongly consider getting them. If I may ask how has the maintenance and service been for you with general? Is it really more expensive then the tier 2 and 3 brands? I hope if I buy i dont get an issue either but in case I do I dont want to spend really high amounts in parts. 10 minutes ago, SuperT said: Installation was on time, luckily had no issues so no service or maintenance required till now.

thegr8anand Posted October 13, 2020 Report Share Posted October 13, 2020 For shoes, i have bought many from adidas.co.in website directly as some they have great discounts than other sites. Next is Myntra as they have much better options than Amazon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That extended warranty is provided by the company or the seller? tbh I've not had an issue so can't really talk about parts, but service wise I haven't spent much more on maintenance/service on General than I do on the Godrej. Here's a list of charges for General - http://www.generalindia.com/images/pdf/General_New.pdf LG - https://www.lg.com/in/support/warranty Panasonic - https://www.panasonic.com/in/support/out-of-warranty-charges.html Samsung - https://www.samsung.com/in/support/in-out-warranty-repair-charges/ If that helps.
