hahaha actually is cause i can sit down to shower and just enjoy the hot shower. Can imagine? one word, SHIOK . Also practically can just put our shower stuff there also and reduce the need for those corner shelving units which i really don't like. Plus NEXT TIME GOT CHILDREN CAN LET THEM SIT THERE AND SHOWER A lot of excuses for a lazy man lol.

HI Macuser77, not really going for brand la.. just wanna get something that i wouldnt nor should have to worry about quality, thats all. Abit of renovation fatigue. Ok Day 5 update. Finally something not on our consumerism and on the actual renovations! So today, the id called the wifey: Andy: eh 你今天可以買哪個service yard sink 先嗎。 Wife: actually waiting for the friend to get back to us on quotation on the rest of the stuff lae. Andy: but 其實我滿需要那個先lae.可以的話還想你們買下來。。。今天可以做那個了finish wet works.還有順便選那個storage tank先還錢。我禮拜一拿下去。 Wife: ..okok i 去看看。 ok we were originally gonna go down to take a look as well so it wasnt much of a detour. But we went down to jalan besar hawker to have our brunch first. The 砂鍋飯, fried kuay tiao and poh piah is . So we got a joven 25L storage tank, the stainless steel sink for the service yard and a random tap for it since we were there. Because everything has been going smoothy so far we dint even bothered checking the condition of the sink and tap and we just took a cab down WITH THE TANK . Now its at the back of our mind for the condition of the sink n taps while we wait for Andy to check for us when hes there. Anyway updates! Flooring was cement secreted and they are smoothening out the walls at the kitchen area now. The uncle serious at work and we felt like we were disturbing them. The cement base that we insisted on for the kitchen cabinets by the 2 walls and the island. Upon second considerations.. they will be covered by the wood so kinda defeats the purpose of them.. The kitchen Sink by the window and that little space beside it for a beautiful plant. The toilets pending the also beige stone textured tiles on the floor walls! my benches looking good heh. Next week will be the installation of gas, lights, curtains, air conditioning and most probably the floors as well... At this rate.. i think ill see a substantial difference nxt week!

Noooooooo u gave up on the yamaha! How could you!

Sorry for the multiple posts due to limitation of the images that can be uploaded.. -_- Some luxury items we also Kiv-ing .. Do i need such a expensive vaccum cleaner? ( im a broomstick guy so .... its a big change for me ) You need coffee first before u can do coffee blendies... And my favourite find of the day. The orginal slow cooker! With all these items , the whole house scheme should be taking a stronger shape now. My original idea was a very basic wood and white base, followed by colorful items to slowly build upon. It seems to be working along fine now. The base color of my reno so far is mainly wood and white. Though i would have prefered more white but practicality won over alot of choices. Never the less it is still a solid base for me to add upon colours and Mrs Merry & My own personality imprint onto our house. Colorful and rustic plates n bowls we are loving and tempted to add into our house palate! A quick update on the house: so far seems to be progressing fine. ID told us pending carpentry, in fact a lot of the stuff are almost ok by next week. We will be going to drop by tomorrow to take a look so hopping to see the home forming shape and character. We trust our id a lot to leave it up to him to handle and he has been very prompt to check with us if any issues arises from his contractor. Will update on progress tomorrow! In the meantime i need to focus on the wedding coming in less than a month! Spending so much time on the house, we have neglected the wedding!

So on the air fryer issue.. we went and double look. Definitely phillips for us after looking at the built and finishing. Yes ladies and gentlemen, thats is a piece of paper inside the plastic cover. The " chrome " knob is also plastic . Funny thing, we are at tangs, and it was going for 319 after sales and then i remember seeing best denki selling for 274 and 247 at their warehouse sale ( someone posted on the internet ) and the sales girl was going on n on.. then i..lol, dint know how to stop her. Dilema on the airpot choices. We trust and like the Zojirushi brand but the design of the panasonic brand looks nicer...=/ not much difference on price. Again..dilema on rice cooker.. Again Panny Vs Zoji But this time round the price difference is quite significant..and at the back of my head im thinking do i need a 200 bucks rice cooker...

First up! The very high up on the want list. The Miele steam oven! down from usual price of 2k to 1888! Nxt: My cusinart blender ! this can blend my home made coffee bean ultimate ice blend mocha now at 550! The cute chopper also at 188, plus mixer at 79. The Kmix or the series with multi color seems to be overkill for us newbies now.

So its another day of walking ard and getting more info despite the tired wifey n me. Bought 2 items today! First! WMF cutlery set! at 129 instead of the usual 3xx at Tangs.. THEN someone msg me on facebook telling me got additional 10% at taka sale. -_- Thinking of getting their 3 piece knife set also which was also going on sale for 99 i think or 70ish. I thinking a 6 piece set would be too overwhelming for a asian cook like me who actually only use one knife to rule them all now. OK so i tot i was gonna get this later but someone decided to sponsor me this so... got it today at best denki as well! at 3488 with usual 4 x 3d glasses 1 skype camera and 1 sony hdmi. As this was gonna get discontinued and it was going fast ( from 60 -> 20 pieces in their warehouse in 2 days ) Decided to just go ahead and get it. I think the new W series was abit under welming for those who were holding out to see what the new W series looked like. Saw my lovely ysp2200 sound bar again... will get...i..t....l..a.t.er....m...u..s...t......f....o..c..u...s..on..e..s..s.entials... OK today was a day of reaffirming the list i compiled yesterday and made some adjustments. Some were obviously too much of a want to warrant it, and some were simply not available locally or there were better options. Also managed to lock down the prices as stated for GSS!

Juxtapose > yup most likely going for the smaller capacity one since there's only Mr and Mrs merry now. How's the effects after switching to alkaline water? Macuser77 >just went to best denki at Harbour front , there's a yamaha room there. Think you can get it for 1499. You can try your bargaining skills lol I'm not very good at bargaining. Let me know if you can find it anywhere cheaper. The news is its not gonna be discontinued so no worries. On a side note : the wife finally green lighted the Sony full led TV but it's gonna be discontinued soon so should be placing a deposit soon to chope one! Stocks are selling fast!

Hi macuser77, I saw it at courts tampines going for 1.4 during their sale. Normal retail is 1.6ish. But because there is a new model released so I think they might try to clear stock during the gss. Juxtapose! I'm thinking of getting it, any idea if there will be installation issues at the tap area. Abit ugly eh... This machine besides the sink

wa your blanco sink with the tap **** swee.

omg. serious. how to bake cupcake with the phillips air fryer?! recipe please, uncle i wanna try. Consolidating the misc appliances wish list now, headache! Not sure if we are gonna get all of them...but at least a list helps us sort out and make decisions better! One good news! we managed to get good quotes for hans grohe taps and mixers at developer prices! Knowing friends who know friends helps! Feeling so blessed now with such good fortune as we were actually quite at a loss what to get. Now i just need to know a friend of a friend who sell toto wc....

its probably abit premature to talk about this.. but does anyone know anything about av set up? heres my plan: Sony HX955 ( most likely wall mounted ) hooked up to the.. Yamaha Soundbar YSP2200 and in turn hooked up to .. The Mac Mini for watching downloaded shows. Ill also be hooking up my existing PS3 and Starhub Box to the sound bar.. Do that sound right? Anyone has a better solution/ recommendation?

I love how daring you are after seeing all the textures in the house! love the pale blue turquoise cupboard beside your tv!

I would think that Philips is easier to clean. I like the materials of Philips compared to Mayer. I find the materials chosen for Mayer, makes the product looks cheap. lol. we would do another evaluation again. Brands weren't given to us. And best part we only have 2 options to choose from. Lol Not sure about the rubber smell - maybe till we move in, will let u know!

Saw both the Philips and Myers air fryer and i much prefer the philips one as i dont see the piece of paper in the glass stating the temperature even though the philips design abit old fashion! See how.. must let mrs merry green light first.. Parasaint> ill let mrs merry reply u or when i see the id on thursday, ill update u. Ok, so today i took a trial trip home from workplace to new place. Took me 1.5 hours! its actually acceptable to me la for the trip home.. i just shutter to think of how early i have to get up for morning classes. Already people moved in! its kinda scary i think if u know you are one of the few living in the whole building... Pardon the quality, it was pitch dark and i had to rely on my torch as my hp was low batt! Kitchen wall gone! Electricity lines being laid. Finally, the beautiful night view admist the sand, stone and wires.

im thinking of the air fryer AND the happy call. WIN WIN hehe

: ) I would think going on a weekday would be much better as basically you have the whole store to yourself. Whats important is that despite all the nice fittings, its a home we are all building and not a showroom. Sometimes we ( ME basically ) tend to forget the final destination in the journey. Hacking commenced yesterday with electrical works going on concurrently !
