Other than that, on the left-hand side, you can filter by brand, product type, or even price so you can narrow down the products on offer for a clearer choice that fits your needs. Then, just click on the product itself for an in-depth view of the item.

Harvey Norman provides information such as the description, specifications and more photos of the items so you can have a clearer picture of the product. On the right-hand side, you can add the item into your shopping cart to be checked out online or if you prefer to view it in-stores, you can find the one nearest to you.

Step 4: Check out

Congrats, you’re ready to purchase your selected item. Once you’ve added the item to your cart, you can continue shopping for other items or proceed with payment. Click on “View Cart” to confirm that the items in your cart are correct and click on “Proceed to Checkout” to make your payment. Key in all the necessary details so that the item can be sent to the correct address. Now, all you have to do is wait for the items to arrive on your doorstep.
