Superb product
The product is superb in terms of the build quality. It displays output and input voltage which is a good feature.I have already suffered a loss due to voltage fluctuations so installed this unit immediately.It was unavailable at the time of my dishwasher purchase or else had installed it much earlier.It's a must buy to protect your dishwasher if you have voltage fluctuations in your area.3999/- is a small amount to invest to protect a dishwasher if about 50k.

Must have for dishwashers.
Sleek Look, digital voltage display for input and output, wall mounting provision are excellent. Among the better choices for voltage stability for dishwashers which can be affected by voltage fluctuations. Just plug and play. A Stabilizer dedicated for dishwashers. Recommend it.

More pros and cons too
I bought a latest Voltage stabilizer from Vgaurd. Model VDW 500 PRIME. I wrote below content as an Amazon review. But I hope they won't publish it. So just thought to share this here.Cons:Plastic cabinet.Unwanted bulky plastic faceShaky socket pins. I hope pins inside socket are hold properly. But with shaking pins, internal wires strands can be cut in long term usage.Heating more than other models.ProsSlimmer because of Torroidal transformer usage. Some NON TECHY MODEL (Actress) had given confirmation about this. Pathetic move by Vgaurd marketing team.First time ever I have seen in Vgaurd, active cooling with fan is used. Fan is noisy since the small fan spinned at very high RPM at starting. Later I have not heard it's sound. May be switched off permanently to save fan's life.Decent quality of plastic is used.My indepth thoughts:I bought this for my new inverter washine machine.Vgaurd WAS making best sturdy stabilizers before 15 years. During that time appliances were also reliable since most of them had transformer based powersupply which are robust against powersupply fluctuation.Modern appliances has SMPS which are very sensitive. Even few milliseconds of surge voltage is suffiant to damage MOVs, Diodes, capacitors, IGBTs and further mocrocobtrollers. This can be easily avoided with better rating of electronic components during design. But manufacturers are not doing that to save few cents. Result is, we the consumers has to relay on NON STANDARD products like stabilizers from Vgaurd.Government must regulate electricity suppliers to provide safe vilatage at any time. For example 220-240V at any time. Govt must implement a voltage Monitoring and logging functionality in Energy meters. Electricity suppliers should be fined when the voltage supply exceeds safe value.Voltage stabilizers manufacturers should clearly say the behaviour of their products. As per my understanding, this stabilizer just boost by 40V when powersupply is below 200v, pass through supply when it us berween 200 to 240V, and buck 40V when power supply exceeds 240v. In my home EB supply is mostly around 250V. So I get 210V (40V bucked).It may trip when powersupply exceeds 280v. As per this stabilizers spec it will function from 130V. So my expectation is, at 130V input, this shit will give 170V. this is already mentioned by an Amazon reviewer with photo/video. Vgaurd must understand that even a low voltage of 170V can damage many apliances under load. They can simply switch off the output when input is below 160V. One more thing, 40V step is huge.Why BIS is not fixing any standards for voltage stabilizers? Why Vgaurd is not getting ang quality certification from ISI?Because of missing standards and issues in power supply system, I'm using totally 5 stabilizers in my home. All of them are bought by my hard earned money which taxed heavily. Again while buying the products too we are taxed. Double taxed!

voltage boost by only 10-15 v
really unsatisfied because i bought this to increase voltage, but it increases voltage just by 10-15 volt. My input voltage is 150, and it increases to 165, but still my washing machine doesn't work as it requires 190 volt. so, unsatisfied with this product.

Good for dishwasher and washing machine
I am using this for my Bosch dishwasher and washing machine. Works very good. Value for money😊
