    yeah, seen alot of those black framed doors/windows.

    Those ID also like to cut and paste template so all lookalike. they will all give u a similar template if u dun like u can suggest but the generally it s the same with minor customisations

    you forgot to mention the white blinds and those black framed doors/windows for the study room lol. 9/10 people who have the typical scandi/industrial theme would use that as well. i also don't like those turquoise/yellow fabric sofas with skinny wooden legs and arm rest that people with scandi themes love. it feels like you cannot relax and sit comfortably in those. like this :

    then again its only the locals who adopt that kind of "look". if you google for scandi/nordic interiors, the main color is no doubt white but still very tastefully done, those angmoh ones. i'm also very sick of those local scandi theme, so sick that i longer read interior mags like i used to. then again i can understand why its so popular because our flats are so small nowadays, white is the only color that will make your house look bigger. no comments about the blum/grohe la, blum is inside cabinet so can't see anyway. if you wanna talk about kompacplus then should you also penalize people who use caesarstone for solid surfaces or lamitak for laminates? no right?

    what started me to search for a serious home water filter was a few yrs ago, i kinda itchy hands and went to buy a $2 filter for tap from daiso. after few weeks i start to realise the water filter changing colour to slight brownish from white,. i mean even for cheap simple filter like this it already collected some substance, i did not bother to find out what they are but for sure i do not want these in me. i continue to use the $2 filter as min form of filtration though, changing it every few months.

    additionally, i find there are harmful effects of flourine despite what ppl say about tooth decay prevention etc

    thats when i realise there actually different levels to what is good clean drinkable water, i know of friends who solely buy bottled water just for drinking. i know i may get stick for this but to each his own.

    And i have been drinking this kinda water for my whole life, not that anything happen to me.

    So now got opportunity to install a good filter thats when i start searching for one.

    Possible to install on a hot and cold tap, eg hot inlet for tap water and cold inlet for RO water? So the additional tap hole can be used for built in detergent dispenser.

    actually if its metallic sink, drilling more holes is not issue to install mmore taps. But for ceramic sink, usually they have already designated 1 or 2 more positions where you can drill for extra taps, but drilling you gotta ask if they provide if not can get ID to help(but they will tell u if crack they not responsible)

    otherwise some can install on the solid surface top or even the kompac plus top.

    wow a RO system for normal usage the waste water is going to a lot if not wrong?

    The system really quite smart. It will store the filtered water into the pressurised tank. And stop once the tank it fills up.

    no, its does not "waste" any water, a RO system uses water to clean itself and wash away impurities. It's like a lot of other water-using appliances. We use water to wash clothes, to wash dishes, to wash cars, to flush toilets.

    A reverse osmosis unit uses more water in its operation than you actually consume,yes. but it doesn't use enough that you'll notice it on your water bill.

    It uses water only while it's filling its storage tank. When the tank is full, the whole unit shuts down and no water runs to drain.

    In terms of expense, it's like a couple or three extra toilet flushes a day. it will be even less if you do not use the water for washing but just drinking.

    I think the APEC is really value even after shipping. A 3M 5stage filter cost 2.3k to buy and install. Even hyflux does not provide 5 stage RO filter and it cost already 1.xxk for 3 stage

    Heary heary, look at this guy, he got only 3 post. specially create account to come in to discourage ppl buy midea. :bleah:

    Following review from another user.

    I though my recent encounter experience with them was devastating but after reading through the review from thread starter it seem that mine could be just a small set-back.

    Summarize: Do re-consider if you are looking at the brand of Midea as your air-conditional for your future apartment.

    I don't normally post such review so pardon my lengthy story as it's full of anger in between.

    Part 1: I purchased my System 3 in early 2012, my first issue started occurring somewhere around middle of 2013 whereby the room closer to the condenser unit intermittently start blowing hot wind and other room work fine but isn't as cold as before. In end of 2013, the room affected issue become persistent. The service man diagnose and claim that it is due to a faulty expansion valve which he did a replacement for free as it's under warranty period for 2 years.

    Part 2: The issue re-arise early 2015, whereby the problem again started to become intermittent follow by persistent over the span of several month. So recently, had called up the company and was quoted the standard charges of service call $60.00 for transportation, labour and diagnostic fee. When the technician came I had explain to him on the issue occurring and without further diagnostic he say the expansion valve is faulty. I ask him again, don't he need to do some diagnostic or measuring to determine the fault. He decline and claim that the only possible fault. So for the replacement part of expansion valve is $260.00 as it is no longer under warranty. After changing, everything function well as per normal condition.

    Part 3: 5 days later after he did the replacement, the similar issue re-surface but it happen intermittently. I call the technician directly and he drop by my place 3 days later. During his visit, it was blowing cold air and he refuse to do further check claiming there is no problem. He shared based on his experience after changing the expansion valve there is could not be any other fault which cause the air-con to function in this manner. He added, he had help many customer to change the expansion valve before and there no need for him to re-visit their home. I disputed and after which he shared with me a illogical analogy. It is something along this line, if you visit a doctor telling him you're having a fever but during the visit and after measuring your temperature everything is fine so there's nothing further can be done. Before he left, he told me if there still any problem then contact him again and the problem must surface during his visit. In another words, I felt as if my integrity is being doubt and an insult of my intelligence.

    Part 4: One day after he left, the problem re-surface and he came about 3 hours later. I was not at home during this visit. He witness the problem this time round and change the motherboard as share from my family member and him. He told us to monitor again and if problem will to re-occur again to contact him and he will check again.

    Conclusion:

    • He's the only technician whom do such repair job.
    • Expansion Valve seem to be faulty frequently with this brand.
    • Be prepare to fork up $260.00 ~ 2 year times.

    I am still monitoring everything as the last appointment happen to be today.

    Around $500.( inc shipping) This is 5 stage filter. I was considering 6 stage (with uv light) but decided against it bcos electrical point below the sink i find too risky and complicated as i initially also dun know if it can be easily installed. (Although online buyers all give good ratings and say easy to install on feedback page)

    Thats right and it is a very solid looking piece and I like it lots! I think very singaporean woman thingy because I saw it is Samsung which is very popular now and the colour is cool so I bought it. (as long as practical and looks nice) If you keep the purchase below S$400 you will not pay GST so i added only 1 extra tag key to keep it below.

    I am sure can easily find someone to install the lock since Samsung also being sold here so i am not too worried. My newly appointed contractor said they can fixed it for me so thats a bonus :)

    i also bought the 910 model but i added few more tags so its bit more exp and i get a contact for locksmith off qoo10 page, he is Mr lim and and was very meticulous when installing and brief me on how to use. its very very easy. He even showed me how to test if my thumbprint registration is working by pressing the sensor so i make sure it is all working (if not kena lock out as some users say) :good:

    manage to get my ID to help me install the APEC water filter. :wub::yamseng: thanks to the plumber who complied and help out.

    Installation is quite simple but the drainage point if you are doing connection to drain pipe need be low than filter. Also if you have a ceramic sink like us, you need to be very careful to ensure the supplier help you drill a hole for the filter tap faucet as ceramic drilling can cause cracks. no prob if sink is metallic
