Oic... i have just switched off my airpot. will see how's the temperature after 24hrs.. =)

Hi, how's the heat retention if you turn off the power?

Hi, I dunno the price as i paid my contractor for a whole lump sum. One thing not good abt tempered glass is tht we cant drill hole to put shelves at the back of cooker hob...

Hi, I bought an airpot too but it's zojirushi brand. Can i know how's the heat retention for ur TIGER airpot?

I have just bought a SUPOR brand rice cooker, it costs me $139. Anyone using this brand? Can give some feedback?

I'm free thinker... still .. i'm quite superstitious abt 7th month thingy... so far contractor done only all demolish work.. cannot complete before next month for sure.. dunno if i should let them carry on renovation work or wait till after 7th month..

My contractor told me he will be very free in chinese 7th month as he dun have much works to do. He even suggested me to renovate at that period.. Maybe other races like Malay and indian they dun pantang then should be ok lo... otherwise, those monthly paid workers must be very free on that month..

Congrats. haha.. but now dun think it's right time to renovate ur house... 7th month coming soon.. i have to wait after ghost month then will do renovation..

Try to call them up and tell them u need the hse urgently.
