Thanks ayazumi and getzski! Looks like the heater might really be faulty, gonna ask ID tomorrow! :thumbs up:

@Punggolfamily: The Flipsides will only be installed after the handover :lol: You can visit the Kohler showroom and try out the demo sets! Our initial impression at the showroom - Koverage (green in picture) was nothing special; typical handshower experience. Komotion (blue) and Kurrent (pink) were massage sprays. Personally I loved Kotton (orange), it felt really gentle and soft on my hands!

Transition between the 4 modes were smooth without water splashing all over the place. There's different types of handles for the Flipside as well (round, square, and I can't remember the last one).

We were glad to be served by a friendly staff named Sebastian who gave us practical advice along the way.

The only drawback for us was probably the material used for the handshower - polished chrome. Not too sure how long it will last...

Thanks for the advice! Our main concern was whether the transition between the different modes would be smooth. We will go take a look at the showroom!! Have fun with the shower head :yamseng:

And finally, a cramped shot of our pole system wardrobe in Bedroom 2 (transformed into Wardrobe & SOHO):

Where u get the pole system wardrobe and how much?

Wow, that's a tricky one! We do not have the exact measurements, but will try to measure when we get hold of a step ladder for our cleaning session this weekend! :lol:

Thank you! :P

Not sure if you still need these pictures, but my electrician finally got the switches working this week :)

Covelights Only

Really cozy setting, not suitable for reading. I find it dark myself.

Downlights Only

Slightly brighter (8 downlights installed) than the covelights but not to my expectation. My kitchen light is brighter than this.

All Lights On

If I'm only watching TV, I'll either switch the covelights on, or none at all. :D

Wow! Love the covelights and downlights at first sight! :dribble: Nice! How much does it cost for covelights and downlights on ceiling? How to change the "lightbulb" for the covelights after a certain period of time when it is not bright anymore?

Hi Aurelia, mind sending me your quote from SDS? Tks!

We've started cleaning up and moving some stuff in while getting our ID to fix the remaining defects, it's really a pain in the ***! 8|

Better start your renovation soon before it hits the 7th month! ;)

The covelights are actually T5 fluorescent tubes, you just have to get the correct length for your living room size.

Pricing for downlights depends on whether you are getting PLC or LED lightbulbs, with LED almost 4-5 times the cost (but energy-saving). You can get 8 PLC downlights + 6 T5 tubes well under $500 or lesser.

Week 10: Cleaning ****

William has handed the flat over late last week, we're now checking each and every corner and making sure all remaining rectifications are done before the final payment! He has been very patient with us so far with our nitpicking (we're extremely fussy homeowners) and I was expecting him to explode anytime... Salutes to him! :)

Cleaning has also commenced (it's UNIMAGINABLE, I think I almost died) and our first tenants moved in... TOYSSSSSSSS!

week10-01.jpg

And no, this is not the entire collection we have. :drunk:

Expecting furniture and electronics to be delivered by end of next week!

Sent! Not convenient to reveal the detailed cost breakdown so I only included the list of items and the overall total. :)
