  1. The one i had was ok, about $300+ for the shower head, not the mixer. Mixer i was using another brand. hehehe..... if its $100 plus, then not too bad. just like you, i feel that water should not be wasted although showering and submerge oneself is a good way to relax. thus, i only do that when i go holiday. need a little pampering once a while....haahhaha.... At home, i will just shower, off the tap while shampooing then on again.... maybe i am conscious of the bill as well.
  2. i am using vitro ceramic and i cook like 4-5 times a week.... sometimes boiling soup for 3-4 hours even. but my electric bill is less than $100 loh... so whatever been said about electricity being so high like $400 is not true at all. Fyi - i bake as well.. using oven up to 3-4 times a week..... and incl baking and cooking, my electricity still below $100. But one thing to note, i seldom uses aircon. if you use induction, then you have to buy pots and pans suitable for induction. Vitro ceramic can use any pots or pans. But vitro ceramic is slower to heat up so sometimes takes a while to cook food that have a lot of water.
  3. piknik, then its too ex. my steel bracket is $200 and mine is high btu than just 9000btu. I think you better get it from other shops.... i have hansgrohe "rain dance" set. i am using city gas heater and its ok.... very good pressure....
  4. i bought my kitchen sink from Hoe Kee too. they have the right size that i needed.... i didn't know they have a bigger showroom at genting lane. i went to the one at tanjong katong while going through geylang
  5. It would be really fun....
  6. thanks a lot.... appreciate it!! i like the bar for your bicycles!!! also can do pole dancing
  7. hi hi... where did you buy IntelliCorder door peephole recorder and how much does it cost you?
  8. if its not too ex, no need to change lah. just get new one and keep this as spare loh....
  9. i think yours is the new model... mine is the older one. you got to try and error lah... it took me a while to get the perfect combination. don't dare to play with it now... heheheeh.....
  10. After 15 mins it will off automatically. You need to off the water then on again then it's ok. It's a safety measure
  11. Haha.... You sure?? You love to soak in water so maybe it's 15 mins before you realized it??
  12. Getzski, max has heater running is 15 mins. Then it will auto off. So you need to shower then switch off the water to soap yourself then on again. If you on the hot water and stand under shower for more than 15 mins, then it will off.
  13. Price of aircon depending on the btu. It can be system 3 at 2.8k but all 3 are 9k btu. Mine at 3.2k incl steel bracket for 18k+12k+9k plus better piping etc. so cannot say all system 3 are the same. Not comparing apple with apple.
  14. oh i see.... at least yours is in store room. imagine she wanting to put it in kitchen.
  15. Yours looks good, mine was slightly different: 10% on signing of contract 40% after finished hacking 25% commencement of wet works (but actual payment was in the midst of wet works) 20% upon completion of carpentry work 5% after handover (1 week afer i moved in)
  16. for me, i did... cos i am christian so just get my leader to pray for blessing on the house.
  17. different habits so depending on your habits loh.... if you need to open door, then no need digital lock.
  18. yup, i heard of people buying from them on renotalk. But like i said, they are parrellel importer so its really up to individual to trust them or not loh. i am not saying they are bad, i am just saying they are parrellel importer where they might give lesser actual keys and warranty might be different (authorised dealer have 2 years and parrellel important is 1 year if pay $30). I just read it online.....
  19. it doesn't feel safe, i feel like its its going to break anytime.... maybe its just my mindset. hehehe... there are many type of white.... you have to ask your contractor lah... they will know better. all i know from andrew is, he does kitchen cabinet in cement then use wood to cover it so looks like normal kitchen cabinet with solid surface on the top. i am sure some other contractors can do the same too.
  20. Interlock are a parellel importer which i mentioned before. The authorised distributor are: http://www.samsungdigitallife.com/index.html
  21. Talking about toilet bowl, there are $200-$300 type. i bought one that are only $250. This is after i looked at 50 toilet bowls all over SG to choose this. Of course there are expensive type, TOTO brand of $900 is quite normal..... some of theirs are like $2k or $3k loh.... but for me, my guests won't care the brand and i don't think i would care too. as long as: 1) When i sit on it, its comfortable. So do the seating test while buying toilet bowl. 2) The flushing button is bigger than 1 finger. i hate those that only have space for 1 finger to press the flush (especially if you are flushing a half flush). 3) Its 1 piece toilet bowl. Its super IMPORTANT!!! Some people might not realised it, but if its 2 piece toilet bowl, there are gap between the seating area and the flushing area. that area is where most germs will accumulate cos the gap is so small that you can't really wash with brush. Then especially men when they do their "small biz" some of the extra will flow there.... then you can't wash it away. can you imagine how much germs there are in between??? i don't wat to imagine. 4) The curve of the hole - when you look into the toilet bowl, the place where there are clean water? some have curves and some are slants and some are quite straight. Well, it all helps in flowing your "big biz" into the water so when you flush, it can be clean? so the curve is very important for no stain on the side. 5) Slow closing of the lid - most toilet bowl now have this so its ok 6) PRICE!! i am very particular about all the criterias but also i am not willing to spend more than $300 per toilet bowl... hehehehe..... i think i mentioned all these in my earlier post but i cannot remember where it is now. too many pages!!! You can get cheaper digital lock, those without handle so you can use the existing handle of the front door but then some doors (especially those have a lot of designed) might not be suitable to fit with a digital lock.
  22. it have anti-theft alarm, meaning that if anyone trying to temper with the lock, there will be alarm sound to scare the thief away cos neighbours might come out to look if there are sound. but the alarm are not link to police station or anything lah..... so no police will come by to have a look. if you use normal lock, there will not be alarm too. so digital lock having alarm or not should not be one of the consideration lah.
  23. i got it for $1200. Some forummers bought Yale/gateman which is slightly different from Samsung. Samsung have a button where you need to press that, then a mini door will open for you to put in your finger to read the print, and the surface is like immigration, a piece of glass. For Yale/Gateman, its like the biometric reader on laptop, where there are 2 strips of metal where you swipe your finger downwards for it to read the print. Basically for both, the price range is about the same. you can get it cheaper by buying from parellel importers although i am not sure how is the warranty. Mine comes with 2 years warranty and 24 hours helpline if ever one day you are not able to get in no matter what you do (number lock, keys, finger print). And also, for authorised distributor, samsung gave 5 keys, and yale is 2/3 only. but if parellel importers, i think only 2 keys. And this key cannot be duplicated!!! its so special that there are no ways you can get it duplicated. I like it, cos now i don't have to worry about keys..... i had the same problem as you. I stay alone so i have no one at home to open door for me if i go jogging..... and bringing keys around is so troublesome especially when i am trying to bring as little as possible. And the main reason is for my family. i do not have to worry about giving them keys when they come visiting as they can get in anytime they want..... or else, i have to duplicate 7 sets of keys and worrying about any of them losing my keys.
  24. eh, getzski, i thought you are using the 3 light bulbs in a S-shaped.
  25. Don't know how to tell you here.... But I see a lot of potential and things to be done. Haha.... Oh, I think he will contact you soon. 😉
