    hi to all the baking experts!

    can i just check who is using which brand of oven?

    we're planning to have an oven in our new place and i hope that i can be as hardworking as you people to bake every weekends.

    we were told brands like ariston, bosch and brandt are good, but the thing is, we cant decide which is better!

    can anyone recommand? we want those built in oven to be placed below the stove.

    thanks in advanced!

    hi, i use ariston...personal liking for the brand :)

    so far the performance has been good too ;)

    For Jason, after he sketched, u need to tell him again what u wanted...sometimes such things happen :) even with uncle soon's carpenter. but i cant draw, i only show them the pictures.

    one more point...are u going to open and close whenever u need to do washing??

    unless we seldom wash...this idea is good, maybe we can use this as a storage for our used plastic bags to be recycled instead?if u really need to have a open below the sink as shown in the picture.

    we also have to take into consideration the mechanism used for this...will it wear off eaily? This i am not very sure...never did any research before. but i used hydraulic for my dish rack at my previous house...after a while, it no longer felt smooth to open and i hate it when it just jump open.

    哈哈！一方面我不急着搬，所以大家就一起配合落！^^

    以下这个有人这样做过吗？应为SINK那里没空间了在前面做这样的小格子可以收小东西干海绵或干桌布等。大家觉得可行吗？

    潮湿的东西放在木柜里总是不太好吧...

    除非你能确保让海棉之类的东西完全干了之后再把它收起来比较理想

    你看到那个在CEILING黑黑的是悬梁，所以没办法敲掉的，在最高处会做几公分的隔离的，只是我没画得仔细。橱是打算做全高的，我怕上面没做到CEILING会囤积很多灰尘，我有懒惰去抹 :P 高处是收比较少拿的东西，加上我老公很高有186公分，手长脚长，所以很容易拿到高的东西，哈哈！所以这到不担心 ;)

    white glass，哈哈！又是偷图 :P (闪)

    u using hydraulic for the glass doors?

    u can actually consider box up if possible...this way, no dust will settle in there :P

    the drawers i mean the tall unit de...i realised the easy part of my current drawers, easy to reach for stuff with sufficient space in between. If the sides of the drawers are too high, u may still need to pull out the drawers.

    I also recycle ideas...i used small boy's pantry concept and i find it very useful for me :)

    the top part of ur door opening upwards will it have any issues with the ceiling? is the cabinet full height?

    u using blum? else i think u can think if u need not have the sides of the drawers too high so that u can reach ur items easily...

    i just realise the white glass very familiar leh... :P
