Though, these days, RO water purifiers are move stealthily into household as specifically made reverse osmosis water filters are overflowing in the markets.

Microwave ovens generate electromagnetic rays. This radiation stimulates the water molecules in food which causes the food to heat up. Microwave appliances do not infiltrate very acutely so food heated for a small time will be warm on the outside but still cold in the center; this is why it is important to mix foods during heating. Because only the food is heated rather than the oven itself, foods cooked in a microwave will by no means build up a coating.

Over-the-range and built-in microwave
If your countertop is a bit jam-packed and you can’t just make a space for a countertop microwave, a built-in or over-the-range oven can be the best choice. Because of their features plus the fitting cost, these microwaves generally come more costly.

The microwave oven is a versatile time reduction kitchen appliance that uses radiation to heat food. This is the same food cooking way cooked in the microwave is as healthy as food cooked in other ways. Research advises that cooking food in microwaves preserves more vitamins, minerals and nutrients than boiling.

To help the company achieve the target, Whirlpool would appoint around 1,500 dealers in more than 200 cities by end of 2010, by which time Whirlpool hoped to reach a market share of 9 to 10 percent.

The company sold less than a lakh ACs in 2009 and aimed to sell around three lakh by 2012, he said.

Gupta said the company has allotted Rs 15 crore for brand promotion.

On the launch of new air conditioners rated in three to five star categories, he said these ACs are priced between Rs 21,000 to Rs 33,000 for the Mastermind Chrome series and between rs 23,000 to rs 33,000 for Mastermind Aviator series.

The company will however adopt a quarter-wise product planning cycle instead of long-term strategy to achieve its target.

Speaking at the launch of its new range of fully automatic top loading and front loading range of washing machines called the Whirlpool Whitemagic range, which WIL launched to celebrate 100 years of its washing machine business, Shantanu Das Gupta, vice president-marketing, WIL said, ” We plan to increase WIL’s market share across the four categories of home appliances to 20 percent plus by 2010 with more emphasis on washing machines, air conditioners and microwaves where we are not as strongly positioned as in the refrigerator category.”

WIL claims at present to enjoy a market share of around 22 per cent in the refrigerator market which contributes around 55 per cent of the company’s turnover, 15 per cent in the washing machine market which contributes around 25 per cent of WIL’s turnover and 8-9 per cent market share in the microwave and air conditioner market

These four product categories constitute the ‘white goods’ market and is estimated to be worth Rs 9000-10,000 crore at present and grow by another Rs 1800-2000 crore more in another two years.

” We hope to achieve strong double digit market share in ACs, microwaves and washing machine category by 2010. Main focus will be washing machines where we intend to increase WIL’s market share from 15 to 20 per cent within next year to meet WIL’s overall objective of 20 per cent market share in home appliances market by 2010.” said Dasgupta.

The company invested Rs 15-20 crore ($ 4 million) in the new Whitemagic range of washing machine and plans to make an annual investment worth $ 15 million (Rs 50-60 crore) in product development in India.

The company launched 13 products in January and had more products for the current year.

“In the product development area the investment in India across all category will be in the region of $25-30 million in the next two years,” said Dasgupta.
