With such a limited choice, they seem to be mostly reviewing and selecting products manually. Yes, I also agree that they should be giving the user more options but the point is that if the user can decide what options he is interested in for a particular product, then he might as well use google. Like I said, you and I are probably not going to use Kallow ever, but our grandparents might find the service useful. @Abhilash: As far as I can see, Kallow isn’t even using an algorithm for displaying product options.

It should atleast ask some relevant questions before giving the user a purchase option. How does kallow know my budget? They didnt ask me, Do I have a brand preference? I may not be the researching kind but i maybe partial to samsung! Having browser Kallow for some time now, I think it might seem like they are promoting one product over the other rather than giving an unbiased opinion, no matter what kind of tech they are using under ti all.

As you discussed, we focus on making the process of buying electronics easy, because today it is confusing and time consuming for most people.
