Arrival of Samsung lock from Qoo10---> received a scratched unit (DEEP ONE) & less items , awaiting seller to respond!, too troublesome to send back so I'll live with the ugly scratch on the panel 12. Lights installation - see below...Foyer light from Taobao --> I love it, bought another for my walkwayDining Pendant light from IkeaBaby's room light from PhilipsLight for other areas are pretty functional so nothing to show la....Master Bedroom : A preview of the LED tracklights from TB ---> Headache 1 : I didn't buy connectors and enough tracks for the whole house and these cannot be cut... so electrician and ID will reconfigure with what they have on hand next week.

I also had a similar issue with non-matching tiles for my kitchen bases but luckily I spotted it when they have only completed the washer base. I brought it up to my ID and it has been resolved 2 days later. If you feel it is an eyesore for you, you should just go ahead and ask for the kerbs to be retiled.
