How to choose in 3 questions

1. How many people?
Advertised capacity is misleading: check what real users report in reviews first.

2. What is your budget cap?
Set a limit BEFORE browsing models: ranges climb fast, and premium is wasted if you never exploit it.

3. Which features will you actually use?
'9-in-1' features are often unused. The right model is the one you use daily, not the one with the longest spec sheet.
