Hotpoint Kenya: appliances backed by a visible service layer
Hotpoint combines online appliance shopping with physical outlets, installation, warranty registration, service centres and order tracking.
One of the more complete local journeys for major appliances. The important caveat is the exchange-only policy: eligible returns generally become a replacement or credit note, not cash.
