  1. price is almost the same i paid 1 yr ago...so far so As assured by the boss, the hob stands did not rust..but there is one particular stand that is made of enamel and has rusted. It comes with the hob package.. Ya.. i am happy with overall....
  2. My sofa set was from Ritz Rymen...bought from them abt 5 years ago and didnt bear to throw the set away as the springs of the sofa were still going strong...so i ordered the sofa cover from them again this time Ritz Rymen's at the Furniture Mall at Beach Road... hihi.. i also got my fabric sofa from Ritz Rymen...abt 6mths ago.. grey colour body with purple colour cushion.. may i know how much you paid for the replacement sofa cover?

  3. Hi, i would suggest you change copper piping to stainless steel for a better look..Since i think most of your piping would be visible and running across...hopefully @ no extra charge..
  4. I am using Kronotex Exquisit... Amazone and Mammut are the higher range.. I did around $2.3K for 2 BRs and MBR... I think there are pros and cons gng thru ID or direct to supplier... Best is to get two quotes and compare.. Any problem, you can get your ID to liase and most probably labour charges paid thru them coz your hse is still under warranty.. If you get thru supplier, probably hv to pay labour charges but materials are free if under warranty.. how? has anyone has went through and care to share??
  5. call them up to check the price..But some contractors will tell you that they need to factor in workmanship cost, installation cost and etc.. But to be fair, they hv to earn a bit.. You can gauge if you want to give them the job if you are comfortable with the price they quote and you know the baseline....
  6. I think everyone kena carrot liao.. Me brought my blum soft closing for $2+ and + the blum hinges, it comes up to around $3+..I got mine direcly from Blum authorised reseller.. Those contractors need to earn a living, and thats why they quote sky high prices. I was quoted $16 per hinge by my ID..which i think is Ridiculous..U can check with the hardware shop that i posted earlier.. Maybe you can neg with them to install for you and you buy direct from supplier lor...
  7. Hi, i am using Morning(MN) sink..the basket for collecting waste is patent..MN is only found in PJ.. Personally i think it is more sturdy than Rubine..with just a knock at the basin base, and u will know the difference..I have a detergent dispenser and two bowls sink. So far so good..no complaints..brought @ the same place.. BTW, i am not working for PJ... it is just a coincidence..
  8. soft closing is the term used...
  9. It is BLUM...You can check out www.blum.com or contact their authorised reseller Kiang Sing Hong Hardware @ Upper Bukit Timah road There are other brands like Hafele or Hettich...
  10. Since he promised to change a new piece, he should honour it. But when you said he would changed to a new piece, i doubt he would do it. Coz SS cracks and scratches can be easily buff/polish over...He would want to save his commission and just give you back the same old piece.. Then hold back the last payment and get him to rectify everything before settling the last payment..
  11. Hi Porkpig, ths for your recomm. John quoted and confm with him immediate. Very good rate. really.. great to heard that.. how much he quote you? don't get a shock when the workers come during your shifting..hehe.. group of bang ga la ard 10ppl.. they are very fast and efficient hor.. the foreman is also very accomodating.. happy shifting...
  12. 5B is the shop name.. and the "B" means Brothers..operated by 5 Brothers.. learnt it from Channel 8 show on "Save Save and Save" by Ben Tan & Quan Yifeng..
  13. hi..usually cheap offers from BEST or Courts are older models.. I have personally went for one Electrolux model offered by BEST as advertised in the newspaper ard $350. And upon reaching, the salesguy told me "ohh this is an older model, i would recommend you another newer model". The drum is of a better quality and the filter is removable for easy cleaning.. cost $600++ Cheap is not necessary the best unless you have budget constraint..Then go for it... So we gave up and KIV lor... Peronally i think should get dryer with removable filter for easy cleaning of fabric and etc.. and if budget allows.. thermo sensor that auto stop when clothes are dried
  14. Try 138 Professional movers John @ 96785201..very good..used them for my shifting..free boxes... free quotation..if you have any special request, do tell him and he will arranged for you... Example..timing to arrive @ your new place and anything to do with feng shui.. btw..i don't work for them.. just another happy customer...
  15. Ohh..itz very near my work place..The block is very easy to identify by their blue blue colour...beside a canel.. good luck for your reno...
  16. Delivery was on Wednesday, after 3:00PM. They called me on Monday to confirm the delivery date. Again called on Tuesday to inform me tentative delivery time and finally called on Wednesday morning to confirm delivery time. At around 11:30AM, requested whether can deliver early and delivered at 12:30PM. The two person delivered was reasonably able to fix up and align the wardrobes for me. So far pleasing experience, was delivered what was ordered. I was really skeptic about the model as most of the wardrobes comes with thinner walls, a bit thicker than the back wall but much thinner than the doors. Have not checked the wardrobes properly as we have not moved in yet. But so far Avanni is meeting all their promises. Will definitely visit them for our future requirements. Hi..do they do furniture customisation? Can you post some pictures of your purchases?? thanks...
  17. for better look and easy removal of water from the surface..undermount is better.. for easier replacement of sink..top mount is better..just have to remove the sink as undermount has to remove the worktop first followed by the sink.. itz up to individual...
  18. price is around there... Hi Summerholiday, do take note that most probably you hv to pay by cash/nets to enjoy this price...
  19. how much you got it from Goh Ah Bee?? I was quoted $600 by my usual electrical shop... Pondering to get it..
  20. ya.. sunlight is free and the best..But you can consider Fisher & Paykel ED56..shld be ard $600. This dryer has auto sensor to turn off when clothes are almost dry. Filter is removal for easy cleaning. And is the one and only dryer to have this function as claimed by electrical shop boss. But i have not get a dryer yet.. under KIV...
  21. Still consider new...You can still ask for rectification works from HDB..but your lease start date could be backdated to a few yrs ago...
