Recommended Posts



We are very glad that we have chosen our ID for our home.He's very patient and helpful even we always have alot of questions and fickle minded on our reno. Whatapps him like whenever we need help, he can reply very fast like 随传随到, even he's engaged with customer he'll reply " call you later" within few mins time. Visit our house almost everyday on weekdays & send us the progress photos after his visit.

As I've remind Allen few times about our neighbours complaining some contractor anyhow throw their rubbish, he send me this pic today & inform me that the rubbish nearby my house is not belong to his contractor just in case my neighbour complain as we are the only unit doing reno at that level now. Such a thoughtful person!! Thumb up for his service!! :good:

We are very slow in purchasing stuffs for our new home. Went to Gain city, Courts, Harvey Norman, Best denki, Audio house for the past few weeks however we still unable to finalized our shopping list. :help:

Washing machine

Due to the "incredible" design of our service yard, my service balcony door opens to the right and the right side is also where the washing machine is supposed to be, with all the piping at both side of my service yard, we can only get a washer size within 60cmx62cm :jawdrop: . As we never use front load before and the top load washer with large capacity is so much cheaper so we try to check ard the model which able to fit in our service yard. After few times of discussion with the salesman, we end up decide to take front load washer instead as we unable to find smth we like to match our service yard, either is the size too big or capacity too little, hope we can get used of the front load washer :dunno:

Harvey norman having promotion for the 7.5kg LG front load washer ($599), forgot to take down the model number at shop, search online found out got 2 diff model number but same function, so which one is better? :rolleyes::bangwall:

Heater

Another item to headache :(, plan to take Bennington C600 multi heater however some comments that water pressure will be more or less affected when 2 toilets in use at same time and the water not as hot as storage heater. But storage heater need to on it for at least 10 mins so that can have sufficient supply of hot water to :bath:and if is not turn off after bathing, the electricity is still running. Any suggestions? Thank you.

There is this top loader from fisher and paykel at 8kg but within 60cm. I am also using it due to the restriction of space. Still prefer top loader as I can still dump in more clothing at the last minute and use cheaper washing powder too.

I am using Xiao Mi 49" in my MBR which I find it still too small. TV is always not big enough to get the cinema effect. Xiao Mi just launch a 55" using Samsung panel at an incredible pricing of RMB4999 with soundbar and wireless sub. Very tempting to upgrade to this Mi TV and transfer the existing one to my dad's room. :sport-smiley-018:

I will stay always from Korea fridge at all cost and use Japanese brand. Still prefer brands like Panasonic, Sharp, Mit or Hitachi fridge.

Seen some bad review on the Bennington. I using gas heater from Rinnai as I can't stand the bulky tank just above my head. If you insist on running on electric heater, You can look at AOsmith heater that's comes with digital temp control and auto timer.

Bearjjj, someone is selling xiaomi TV in SG. Saw in at one of those expo IT fairs.

Personally, I've got some experience playing with the xiaomi TV, personally I feel its a good buy for entertainment room or in your bedroom.
