    <description>Buying a new TV, oven, or dishwasher shouldn't feel overwhelming but for most of us, it does. Too many options, too much jargon and advice that doesn't quite fit your home or your budget.

Dominic Smith has spent decades on the shop floor helping real people make smarter choices about the technology in their homes. Now he's bringing that honest, no-nonsense guidance straight to your ears.

Each episode tackles a different category, from big-screen televisions to kitchen appliances and smart home tech to computing. It breaks down the buzzwords, cuts through the noise and helps you buy what you actually need.

This isn't about chasing the best price. It's about making the right decision.

Whether you're fitting out a new home, planning a renovation or simply replacing an appliance, Dominic Talks Tech is the trusted voice you didn't know you needed.
