  1. Hi, did you use airfreight for your taobao loots? How many kg was your package and how much did the shipping cost u? I am shipping rather big items over, lightings for whole house + trashcan + small decorative items, should be using seafreight!
  2. do you think its neccesary to shift it lower to beautify the toilet? will the water hit the head of the tub?
  3. i'm eyeing one from Blanco. Only Hoe Kee carries them ??
  4. i think alot of us have the same prob. build a shower screen to cover your toilet bowl ? but i really dont like that because the shower screen will make the bathroom feel even smaller :/
  5. Hi Anyone grilled a whole chicken with your Bosch oven before? Did your chicken brown evenly since there is no turnspit/rotisserie function? Can't decide to get the cheapest Bosch (700+) or the medium range Brandt(1.5K) It's really very expensive :/
  6. Can someone share their pics of icrystal matching with white kitchen cabinets? I saw a sample of icrystal lately and noticed it looks slightly creamy/off white. Can't visualize how it will look with my white cabinets. Not sure if I wana change to iPure instead.... I want my kitchen to look white and bright but at the same time I don't want it to look stark and clinical.
  7. Hi Anyone bought these brands before? I saw a nice one from Adamas, these 2 brands are very affordable, $230 and $300 + only, but what is the water pressure like? Can anyone comment on these 2 brands ? I will be buying a gas heater instead of water storage. Was told by ID and Adamas that water pressure really depends on my block/Hdb's pressure, not so much to do with the various brands. Hmmm wondering how true it is?
  8. Hi do I need to apply a primer or can I just paint over it like that ? It says "Apply to metal, wood, plastic, hardboard, glass or paperboard."
  9. hi sforshor, can share which are the good stores for LED downlight? are the reviews for each store reliable? some stores have really high sales volume!
  10. Hi guys any specific Taobao stores to recommend? Please share your links here. I've trouble selecting who to buy from. What volt did you buy for your house? I only know I should purchase 10 for my living room but no idea to get what volt. I saw lots of round shape one, but I prefer the square ones. I searched for LED 筒灯, is my translation correct?

    hi anyone used chalk board paint to paint your bomb shelter door? what sort of primer do I have to buy? any specific brand to recommend?
  12. is gas heater sufficient for bathtub ?
  13. nothing, mines a open concept kitchen, glass door need too much maintenance!
  14. Did yours ended up looking glossy? Any picture to share? I thought it looks weird to have glossy skirtings with matte walls.... Any matte paints out there to recommend?
  15. this is disappointing, I saw a bedframe that I like yesterday at expo! didn't commit coz I thought I should do research first, which is a gd thing!
  16. Hi all any idea if the costly part of installation curtains is the installation? the workmanship of the sewing? or the fabric cost? i'm thinking of buying my own fabric overseas. but not sure if it'll be cheaper or not... and for the curtain tracks, who will do it? the curtain company or the false ceiling guys? false ceiling guys will do the pelmet right?
  17. no idea on 1 & 2. but i read somewhere on spraying wall and floor tiles, the spray paint will peel off! maybe you can try googling on peeling/fading of spray paint. it looks really terrible, seems like the owner was really unlucky because it didn't last a bit.
  18. any problem with those LED downlights?
  19. nice thread! hope to see u back here again Gakuseisean!
  20. i'm going for country theme probably thats why he suggested nyatoh? i'm not too sure either. but then again, after spraying over the door cannot see wood grains already...
  21. anyone knows how much will installation cost if i were to provide my own curtains?
  22. Hi all anyone hired this company before? Any one come across their portfolio before? Can share the links?
  23. Hmm, but anyone has bad experience with iquartz? So far it's the most affordable quartz, if i were to compare it with solid surfaces it is definitely a better choice right? Caesarstone and Silestone abit too out of budget already....
  24. Hi all, one ID quoted me for solid nyatoh door for my kitchen cabinets. what is the diffference in quality between nyatoh and solid plywood ? Is it advisable to use Solid Nyatoh for kitchen cabinets?
