too bad...one thing is this one gotta buy the micro filters though...i used to use my bialetti more often but now that i have my nespresso, it's just faster and more convenient to make a cup of coffee... my bialetti is now reserved for guests who are coffee aficionados who want a real cup of italian espresso...hee... -

hmm, how does the taste of this one compare to a bialetti ? the principle behind this one looks like a cross between a french press and a vietnamese style drip coffee -
oh ya, talk about shielding of cat 6 cables in the false ceiling - they can use those inflexible grey pvc pipes (like water pipes) to do it but u gotta do this while they are building the frame for your false ceiling...otherwise, you can only opt for the flexible plastic tubing (accordian type, slightly thicker than a plastic water pipe) to shield...i can only use the latter as i ran my cat 6 after...

no need so atas lah...buy the scotch brite version from ntuc etc...way cheaper and works the same way...i think i paid about $20+, replacement mop is mebbe $10...every now and then, 3M will run 20% discounts with homefix or ntuc... Scotch-Brite® High Performance Super Mop seem to have changed colour but mine is the green one...dunno if it's the normal mop or super mop -

i emailed amazon customer service about this previously, they told me to place the order, then visit the link below to give them the order number and then they apply the free shipping for you...for some reason, my current order i didn't need to do this... http://www.amazon.com/rsvp-mi?c=yexgxqqw3694478010&q=o2r -

in place of the carafe, you guys can consider the following aerators which simply plug into the wine bottle or in the case of the vinturi, held over the wine glass...vinturi is sold at crate & barrel singapore, around $70+ each... Nicholas VinOair Wine Aerator Vinturi Essential Red Wine Aerators, Set of 2 (also has set of 4) great for a housewarming gift, or for yourself to use...apparently the pack of 4 are packed individually so you can give them away... -

Nope, so it does sort of slam shut but is not overly noisy like other cheaper models...go and try at homefix for yourself and see if it's tolerable for you... this one is too big, i think i've seen before at homefix... so far, the homefix at harbourfront has the most complete set of simplehuman trash cans, big and small...suggest you all go and see there before deciding...i did that myself.. -

i think you have to use it to appreciate it...for me, the difference is the breeze is "gentler" even though it could be pointing at you directly so my eyes don't feel so dry... besides the fact it's got a smaller footprint and less "zor dang" than a standing fan - it's just as powerful, if not more...because it's an air circulator, other people in the room can also feel the breeze even tho it doesn't oscillate like a normal standing fan...the only drawback is that you gotta buy a step down transformer locally for around $23... if there is a remote control version, i'm giving my mistral to my mum ! -

re: vornado fans, too bad the air circulators still don't have the remote control models (the tower fans have bad reviews), otherwise i would get another one too... i'm eyeing the joseph joseph worktop savers too i have one and i love it -

More goodies Cheong eames elephant Compared to the original, the finishing for this is rougher (the edges can catch on your clothes), the screw on top of the elephant is not the same as the original, and it feels distinctly less stable than the original. But for the price (original is $500+), I guess it's ok... Wrong colour ! we ordered baby blue and it turned out orange...need to go complain... Cheong eames dog For this one, we ordered the plastic one vs the fibreglass one. You can see the join right down the middle of the entire dog, although they did smoothen the join but i think the original is one single, moulded piece...very stable to sit on, compared to the elephant... Original eames elephant on the left...you can see the legs are wider...other details are only apparent when you go up close and you have an original to compare with...otherwise, you would be none the wiser except for that screw on top of the head... oh, also brought in a few more of the acrylic stools that we ordered previously (it's earlier on in this blog somewhere)...better order it before it goes out of production...as it is, they had to specially produce those few for us... -

here's another one of my recent acquisitions - Protective Ironing Pressing Pad 2-Pack - Household Essentials It definitely does work on my dark pants, preventing those pocket/seam imprints on synthetic material...plus point is that i now can iron over buttons, belt loops etc without worrying about my iron catching on them or the plate getting scratched WMF bistro paddle These are small and cute - great with my Bodum Pavina 2.5oz espresso glasses... WMF Vela These are longer than the Paddle spoons, just the right length for my Bodum Assam 6.5oz coffee glasses WMF cocktail forks I bought these for when guests come over, for fruits and other finger food... All the above shipped in via HSG...shipping cost was ok lah... -
