That's the reason I need big fridge. As I live alone, I buy food to cook and usually cannot finish. So I need fridge to keep it. And I don't do grocery shopping daily so will buy quite a bit at one go. And I entertain a lot, so lots of drinks I put in the fridge. My current fridge that is 400L is too full. That's why I need bigger one. -
That's why ppl says, pay peanuts, you get monkeys. I rather have it done nicely and on time than cheap and lots of problems especially I plan to stay long in this flat. It's all based on how much u can trust your ID to make everything easy for u. Of course I think still need to go see as often as possible.

New flats main doors are wider so no problem. And the one for sharp have 4 doors and are called French doors. Different from normal side by side. Yes, front load takes longer but better for your clothes, especially ladies dresses. This electrolux have special function where it can wash a smaller load for 30 mins only. On top of it, I like having hot water to wash my clothes, the white will remain white and not turn yellowish. Unless you use your storage heater to go into top load machine, I don't know any top load that have hot water function. All these from my experience of using different washing machines as I moves every 2-3 years. -

MY PURCHASES 1) FRIDGE To me, i like to cook and i plan to learn how to bake. Always look at those really beautiful tempting cakes make me want to learn to bake as well. So i would like to have a nice big fridge. can you believe that i actually start to look for fridges even before i start to look at IDs/contractors. I think i have been to 4 Courts, 2 Harvey Normans, Mega Discounts, Audio House, called a few neighbourhood electrical shops and do research online. In the end, my first choice was http://www.sharp.com.sg/web/products/prodD...4&mode=Feat When i went to pay for it after decided, the sales person told me its very big and some hdb main door cannot fit this at all. I went to ask the seller to measure the main door and its true!! The fridge is too big and even taking out the fridge door, doesn't help. Then i have to research again on which fridge would be more suitable for me. In the end, this was 2nd best. http://www.hitachiconsumer.com/sg/products...s.aspx?oid=2689 Phew!!! I didn't know choosing a fridge will take me nearly a month. 2) WASHING MACHINE Compared to the fridge, my washing machine was decided within 10 mins. Firstly, i wanted a front load as i am used to it. Secondly, for front load, continental brands usually last longer or so i heard. Thirdly, i do not need it to come with drying function. So i choosen this in the end. http://www.electrolux.com.sg/node90.aspx?productid=30783 3) DIGITAL LOCK In order to have this, i have given up main gate. This is to save money + totally keyless main door. My choice was the Samsung fingerprint digital lock: http://www.samsungdigitallife.com/images/P...-5230_Front.jpg My friends are asking me, why my home is like those in korean dramas, where need fingerprint or password to go in. I guess cos it look cool and save the trouble of carrying keys for myself, my family and my best friend. I cannot even remember how many times i have gone to the locksmith to duplicate my current home keys. at least i have duplicated 10 sets and have the fear that it might get lost. That is what prompted me to buy digital lock. These are the 3 things i have bought so far. I have most of the needed furniture which i am going to use even though they are a bit old now. But after spending more than budgeted for the flat + reno, cannot afford to buy more new furniture or electrical items. -
