  8. Hi guys, i'm intending to sell this kitchen tap as it doesn't fit my sink. Bought it from Taobao for about $60+. Selling it for $50. PM me if you're interested. NOT genuine Kohler FYI. Selling Yale digital lock YDR 3110 that I've placed a deposit from Hoho Engineering and Renovation Works Retailing at $299. Paid deposit of $150. Selling off at $130 so you just need to pay the remaining of $149 to get the lock @ $279 Comes with 4 RF Cards.
  9. Need some opinions, my ID suggested that we use designer hollow blocks to make a bar counter. Anyone have any experience with such blocks?
  10. Updates: Kitchen!
  11. Choosing your Hobs & Hoods: Just sharing what I've learnt about choosing hobs and hoods. HOBS *Brands* Actually, all cooking hobs are almost the same regardless of brands. Of course there are some key features that only certain brands have. Rinnai & Fujioh: They have hobs that have inner flame which means closer flame concentration and faster cooking time. Similar to those zichar store stoves. Supposed to be wind-proof. Bosch: Only Bosch has 2 years warranty (if I remembered correctly) and the rest have 1 year warranty. *Gas, Induction, Ceramic*Gas- Any pots can be used- Cheapest running cost- Gives off a lot of heat, which makes the kitchen hot- More suited for Asian stir frying Induction- Uses electromagnetic fields to heat up- Requires special cookware- Gives off the least heat so the kitchen stays cool- Easy to clean and energy efficient- Easy to use and heats up quickly Ceramic- Has a heating element under the toughened glass- Requires special cookware- Gives off lesser heat than the gas cooker hob- Easy to clean, but need to be careful of scratches - Easy to use and heats up quicklyIn terms of cost, Induction and Ceramic are a lot more expensive compared to Gas *2 Or 3 Burners*Based on personal experience, I will suggest 2 as you will hardly use the 3rd burner as either there's not enough space between the pots or you wouldn't cook so many items at one go.Of course, it's entirely up to individual needs and preference on the number of burners. *Glass or Stainless Steel Plate*For functionality, Stainless Steel because they are very durable but more prone to scratches. For aesthetics, Glass because they look classy and are generally more easy to clean. For glass plate, please take note of the so-called "10 Years Warranty". What I understand from a few salespersons, most or all brands will cover you ONCE for that 10 years should the glass crack. Having said that, the chances of it cracking is very very slim unless you pour extremely cold water on the glass after prolonged intensive cooking. (Extreme heat difference) One more point for Glass, please try not to choose the white/clear glass. I've heard from people that overtime, the area surrounding the fire will turn yellow and it cannot be cleaned off. Some brands have a piece of metal at the back of the plate to act as a heat sink to help dissipate heat away from the glass. Do take note of that if you're choosing glass plate *Ignition*For most hobs, the ignition spark is operated by battery which in the long run will spoil. Reason being that the battery holder is embedded with the plate which means the battery will be exposed to a lot of heat from your cooking. Over time, it will either leak and cause the connectors to not work or you have to constantly change battery.Choose those that are powered by electrical. The downside is that you have to get your electrician to put a 13A socket. *Ease of cleaning*Last but not least, try to dismantle the burners and see if there's any grooves or holes that might trap oil spills or food waste overtime. Because cleaning those grooves will be a nightmare. HOODS One of the best suction hoods are from Fujioh but it can rather noisy. I've spoken to a lot of salespersons and they all tell me the same thing, the main function of a hood is to prevent oil stains on your kitchen cabinets above your cooking hob, not to suck out fumes as there's no exhaust bringing the fumes out of your kitchen unlike those zichar stores. So there's really no need for a very good one if you ask me. The only thing that I will look out for is the ease of cleaning. From what I know, some Fujioh hoods are not easy to dismantle and clean. Hope this post helps!
