    The guide to a good plunger is a long handle, i ask hotel stuff why the handle is 3 ft long. They told me, it is the power of the push to create the vacuum. If the handle is too short the plunger will not do a good job, some even bend.

    With the SH plunger, it is metal, wouldn't bend. I think it will be fine.

    Wife don't allow? Woah, difficult then. Have to respect. :good:

    You are right on the Stock shower head, the rubber already gone even without using. Have asked ID to change using the 707 free shower head, if still cannot, will ship some good shower head, mean while will source and keep in cart.

    You probably need to go to their shopping outlets to get good deals which normally requires driving out.

    Some of the outlet in LA - Carmarillo and Desert Hill, both are premium outlets which i would recommend if you are intending to get Bose. There are many good brands as well. Can go to Best Buy to get some electronics.

    I would say anything that is a US brand should normally be cheaper, like Philips, Tumi, Bose, NorthFace, etc.. for cookware, Lodge, All Clad, etc. However, even with 60kg baggage allowance i wouldn't lug so much things back when i can go online to amazon to purchase and have them ship free to Singapore.

    i didn't buy anything renovation related when in the US, most is for personal use.

    Hi benetay,

    Do you know where can get the adapter? As I told by contractor they not recommended China sink to use in sg because the piping is different. normally they use white tape to seal the pipe, but it is still leaking.

    So I don't know whether it is true? Can you show me a photo how your piping work? Will it leaking?

    US & China pipe size are the same? I wish get this 23" Kraus sink from US & whole set vanity in bathroom from China, do you think any issues if I get from there?

    Hi,

    i would recommend Kraus sink + local manufactured cabinet for vanity. (i know of people import vanity from Taobao, it is not something i would do even if it is cheap and save cost) i always believe that the bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    For adaptor, 3/8" to 1/2" to fit local pipe can get from Teck Siong Huat Hardware Pte Lrd. 28 Kelantan road.

    My piping not done yet, but as long as the fittings and joint are correct it should not leak.

    Hope this helps.

    Take picture and highlight. It is the contractor stubbornness not to lay the protective sheets. To me it is okay if they don't lay but the cost will go to the ID and eventually if charged to us by other means, long run they will lose out customers.
