    I love the hexagon cabinets too, a very unique touch. Some space will def be wasted, but make the hexagons not too big and I think it's a good tradeoff!

    It's not my place to say this but... if you're paying for the flat and the reno, you really should do what you like. That's just my opinion... I know everyone has different circumstances. Kompacplus has been used by many of my friends and they don't have any complaints at all. I'm using quartz and I feel like it does stain a little. But can be wiped off with CIF and a cloth (so far).

    I think 55 inch is good enough for 3 room flat. I'm living in 3 room too.

     

     

    Agreed with Spooky. It's my place and i decide on everything so it's a bit of balancing between advice and what you like

    some of the works done recently :

    making good of walls & floor after hacking

    cement sink support up!

    also need to give this a special mention, my washing machine base with wood grained tiles! my contractor said i could choose my own tiles instead of the default HDB ones that people normally use for the bases, so i went to hafary and chose this. the name is "legn natureel". its walnut colored and i LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! i think it looks kinda odd here but this is the look i envisioned, washing machine sitting on a wooden pallet. the grains are really pretty and i think the tiler did a great job. too bad the area is so small and i wouldnt really be able to see much once the WM is up, i still love it nonetheless. if back then i knew such tile existed, i would probably not have opted for HDB tiles :( and hopefully when my walls are painted grey it would tie the whole look together. 

    most of the electrical wirings have also been laid/relocated. now im waiting for my first batch of stuff from taobao to arrive, they consist of mostly sanitaryware like sink, faucet, bidet spray and rainshower, all in black! 

    i think the subcons did a great job overall, hopefully it remains this way!

    camping here to wait for your TB arrival :D

    I'm looking at the same series of switches from them.... Some with USB charger.... i think it should be safe... Any advise from others???

    Ray, u might have problems even getting an electrician to fix this up for you and unless you get it from their actual online store, i'm not sure if you should be getting them at all.

    I think if you really want, can try getting them from JB instead.

    After lunch we wanted to go to Lion City at Geylang to nego a deal. It turned out to be a drive by instead since they're closed on public holiday.

    Sim Siang Choon @ Changi South

    We compared design and prices of the taps we saw on Lazada and those on display. Seems like a great difference in price, will purchase this online. 

    They had very few kitchen appliances on display and didnt seem to carry the brands we were interested in

    We wanted to buy those pull out steel trays for kitchen cabinet but mechanism didnt feel smooth. We bought their corner stainless steel unit instead. Mechanism felt really smooth and the trays look sturdy. 

    Forgot to get the name of the sales staff. He was very helpful, even helped to load up the heavy box into my car.

    Headed to Parkway Parade

    First stop Best Denki. Very limited appliances on display. Sales person kept promoting another Italian brand's appliances. Whats up with sales personnels and Italian kitchen appliances??

    Hravey Norman@Parkway

    Huge kitchen appliances display area. Hoods were connected to power points and we could test the power of air suction. Realised the advertised airflow of some brands were actually so so in reality. Thanfully we were assigned a very neutral and knowledgeable sales lady. She explained to us that certain brands remove all the filters when they test airflow. So the advertised figures are not accurate. Her method of test was just a simple paper test, but it worked!!

    We settled for a Brandt bundle, a brand we didnt even consider in the first place because of pricing. She offered us a really good deal and Harvey Norman truly lived up to their reputation " We wont be beaten on price!"

    Decided to get a Samsung washer as well, and again she gave us a gd deal. 

    Tips :-

    1) When buying things at Harvey         Norman, dont just look at the price displayed, everything is negotiable.

    2) If like me you are bad at bargaining, Head down to their Parkway outlet and look for a lady with short hair and wearing glasses. Her name beigns with the letter E. She'll do her best to cut you the best deal. No bargaining required.

    I did a few with HN at one of their fair at EXPO. Realize that (after given the advise by many here & there) it's sometime a lot cheaper if you buy them online eg Qoo10 with discount coupon. Mine was close to $300 more expensive then getting it online when i compare prices.
