I had gone thru for review for summit and preethi and look like preethi is better.

Also found another premier or butterfly at chennai import...but looking for preethi.

Anyone can recommend if you purchase indian mixer in canada and what was the price you paid?

This place is hard to find on the map, so make a good search before you start. It is here. There is a cemetery around that block. Park and take a walk from Coxwell Street and "ON" Gerrard Street towards Woodbine. : http://www.mapquest.com/maps?city=Toronto&state=ON&address=Woodbine+Avenue&zipcode=M4C&country=CA&latitude=43.6843&longitude=-79.3122&geocode=BLOCK

There are 2 Indian Houseware stores on Gerrard Street near Woodbine that may have them, they run around $200 for a small one, and are made to run on our 120 Volt system. ( Not the Indian 240V - 50 Cyc.) They operate a little sluggishly, not as good as the ones in India, because the space provided for the 110 volt motor can only accommodate a smaller one, in the base.

At one location, most of the goods are displayed in the windows, and during the summer even on the sidewalk, in the front of the store. The second place is just one block east of it and has a large sign in front, it is located about two doors away from the corner. Since you are fond of one brand, which is Preeti, I would suggest you start there first. You might find that they charge you a little bit more than expected. So start bargaining like you do in India.

Also see if it has a warranty to go with it and which company services it here and where you can get the original parts as you will need them later. If there is no service from them, then junk the idea.

Freddie.
