Probable layout of our future nest, "Live, Love Laugh"

10 years passed since my purchase of resale flat We have our share of what-not and look out for in our next home. what I would avoid; 1. Top&bottom bathroom track shower screen. ditto to one of the former here, the bottom track accumulated loads of grime. if possible, have minimum moving parts in these areas. 2. Mosic at shower area. good luck to scrubbing. 3. insufficient and didn't plan more storage due to budget, currently leaving things cluttered. 4. Excel dampers/runners IMHO poor quality. I had to change the dampers and runners due to breakdown. Recommend to continue to do; 5. Buy higher quality products; a. Grohe Facets and bath products hear lots of complain about ikea users, 10 years on and m,y Grohe it is still chrome and shiny b. WMF Cutlery ditto about rust from ikea product, my WMF cutlery are still good. Would be continuing to use them even shift house. 6. Large size TV 10 years ago, 45" would consider large and my spouse complaint why get such a big 50" TV? Now she complains it's small. Go big or go home LOL. 7. Digital Lock. Love the convince that I do not need to lock (auto lock) and bring keys wherever I go. 8. Ceiling fans Saves space and it has never dropped on me (somethings my friends always warn me about) 9. Covelights Yes, there may be dust, but not that bad. I don't see accumulation of lizard or xiao qiang as speculated by the former here. Hope my inputs would help.

Hello, anyone with recent deals (within 2 years) with Everjoint?

Good day one and all, I'm looking for a biometric digital lock for HDB gate that is able to unlock the main door the same time I unlock the gate. I.E. I don't have to swipe my fingerprint twice, once on gate followed by door. IMHO it defeats the convenience of a digital lock to bring an accessory to unlock or have to unlock 2 devices to gain entry into home. Currently, I only know of Yale that has this feature. Features to look for; 1. Biometric (Fingerprint) 2. password input (Secondary input) 3. physical Key unlock (In case electronic devices all fails) 4. Mortise lock 5. battery lasting for more than 3 months. Thanks in advance.

Hi Jon, Disclaimer, I do now own these invisible grills. When you mentioned safety, which aspects are you referring to? IMHO, Safety for young children: This should be sufficient to prevent young children fall from heights yet retaining that panorama view. Deterrence from burglar: As indicated in your videos, it is a weak deterrence against burglars and not recommended at common walkway. The sales persons/ current users from Invisible Grills would be able to provide a better assessment. GLWS.

4. Kitchen island Found some interesting ideas for kitchen separation https://www.renotalk.sg/14-hdb-kitchens-spectacular-wont-want-make-greasy/

3. TV Console

2. display cabinet > display of knick-nacks A. HRC shotglass B. HRC pins C. Coke bottles D. BTS toys E. Smuffs collection F. Minions collections? G.precious memories H. Finisher medals / trophies I. momentos J. Disneyland souvenirs

1. Shoe cabinets > utilisation of bombshelter > empty bottom slot for frequently worn shoes > sitting area

Layout of Bidadari Alkaff Oasis is similar to punggol bto, with the Bombshelter constructed on the opposite side of the hall. Layout ideas are be found from Renovation; 15 Concise layout Design for Alkaff Oasis Bidadari & 15 Brilliant Layout ideas for Bidadari

After a decade of comfort living at our current 3I resale, we have secured a BTO at Bidadari by the grace of God. We are excited to look forward to a new premises where we would continue to "Live Love Laugh" till our golden age. Attached are photos of Alkaff Oasis taken prior to Covid19. Indefinitely, the constructions and Hand over will be delayed.

Hi duomaxwell, A very comprehensive rent-blog. I noticed that you have a tub in your MBR toilet, is it a built in? Would you have photos of this? It has been since 2 years that you have moved in, wondering is there anythings that you would have done better? May I request that PM of your contractor and quotation details please? Many thanks.

My Spouse and I are filled with envy with your bathtub. how is it now, after that you have moved in? My MIL has an identical layout and may I ask for your ID as well as quote please? how did you manage to shift the WC btw? Do pm me if it is not convenient here. thank you in advance.

My regrets for the late reply. We eventually got it from Premierz @$328 After 2 years still running well. Retracting it higher is rather heavy but manageable

This guidelines are called 'kitchen triangle' it facilitates the cooking experience. You can either google it or view my past T-blog. chnster, your reno is looking good. Gd luck to all.

Hi chiang80, Go for Grohe/ Handsgrohe. These amazing German products are still shiny (reat rust free) and silky smooth (handling) as day one. I had an unfortunate leak in my Grohe rainshower head, but the Excellent service reps from Grohe had them replaced at no charge even after 3years! They maybe a handful to pay at the intial but the quality and service are worth your bucks!
