For anyone from North America considering moving to Mauritius you'll find many brands you're familiar with (Samsung, Black & Decker, LG, etc.), but you'll also come across plenty of brands here that either don't exist back at home, or exist but don't offer the same types of goods. Below are some of the appliances I've bought and/or used personally, along with some thoughts on each.
Purchased from: Mr. Bricolage
Price: ~5000 Rs
Thoughts: A little on the pricey side for a wet/dry vacuum, but it seemed to be the best-built option I could find for a compact vacuum. So far I've been quite pleased with it.
