went expo 2, wouldn't decide on Kronotex or Supreme... even thought the pricing was quite good. Both have its pro and con.

If u have $$, go for Kronotex as they have bigger type of laminated flooring known as "Mau....." which looks prettier for your floor.

FYI, I am comparing the pricing & quality for the best type of lamintaed flooring offered by the 2 companies caused I believe cheap quality does not last long.

y made u guys go for laminate flooring?

hi, anyone interested in "Rattan" sofa? any recommendation?

hi nemofc.. wat's ur budget? in great world there's a new shop jus opened.. named "iwannagohome" the things are sooooooo beautiful! got a few designs of rattan sofa.. so very nice.. but the price also

jus now in the late afternoon.. went up to 2 units offered by a lady contractor.. 1 5rm unit n 1 4rm unit.. quite worry for the 5rm takers.. the 2 common rooms r really **** small n impractical layout.. y HDB hv such bad layout.. sigh.. in contrast.. the 4rm takers r more blessed.. the 2 common rooms feeling more spacious n practical.. thou living rm n kitchen r much smaller.. but overall i feel more satisfied with the 4rm.. hehehee.. may b jus tat i'm too obssessed with my choice! haha..

n hor.. seeing the actual tiles in kitchen n toilets.. n the window grills.. ok la... not s bad s i tot initially.. is really v contented with them leh!! hahaa.. i tink i'm absolutely total obssessed with our new home!

the "showroom" is using an electric heater and no matter what, it seems like the gas heater or electric heater has to be outside because of the pipes

Simmons @ such a cheap price....

The mattress model is Special Edition...Yup found it to be a good price and tried the mattress...really comfortable and when u move, dun affect the other party one keke...

Hi Neighbours,

Just came back from Expo's 'Creative Living', my hubby and I already confirmed the laminated flooring from Supreme and system 3 air con from Mitsubishi <Good Bargain ..... It is cheaper than Gain City, Best Denki....... but no credit card payment allowed > . ....... Next step, Kitchen Cabinets + Electrical + Lighting........

So happy. ^ _ ^

3 Cheers,

Cindy

Hehe, around how much did u get for the mitsubishi air con...I also got a price quoted from the expo fair, but didnt get in the end..coz found it to be not that cheap...but also not sure

went expo 2, wouldn't decide on Kronotex or Supreme... even thought the pricing was quite good. Both have its pro and con.

got 2 other 2 IDs to quote based on our requirements... hopefully they fit our budget (which is not alot).

If not, then haf to source for individual contractor to do the work

Yup our budget is tight too...so hope this ID give us a good quote..will go look for them on Saturday etc...also have to check what they give etc...anybody knows any important things to take note?

Thanks thanks

when u guys & gals say tight budget... how tight is it?

very scary leh... more than 1 of you who been to the show say tight budget already

Me also have SUPER tight budget. Now already over budget liao.. but think dont have any choice la.. =(

Ya, xlan, i agree that the bedrooms in 5-rm are very small! I went to see the unit and was very disappointed. I dont even know how to design my MBR? So headache now..

personally like the look and feel of it when stepping... one of the range for krono does not reflect as much light as normal laminated..

and maybe for a change, as been living on tiles for ages...

cos renov is just 1 part of doing up a home.. there also appliances, your day-2-day items + others unknown issue that may just crop up...

better to work within what you can afford...

ok, just wanna check... based on your visits to Expo, is $30k for reno alone ok or considered tight?

No lah - no secretive la

for some topics, better not to mention exactly the name / item else others will get offended. Just want to be sure on that...

The quotes given at Expo for 4 room all less than 30k.. in fact less than 20k... of coz there may be some other things...depends on what you want etc..but basic basic wont over 20k for reno alone...

$30k for reno alone is consider alot.. haha, unless u have in mind alot of carpentary, design features. Reno costs alone does not include alot of things.. I did an estimate, to complete the whole house, with all electrical appliances, furniture, reno, mattress, deco, we will need around a $45k budget.. *faint*... Somemore cut off alot of things liao..
