TPY 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2007 this amt is inclusive of all my appliances and the soft furnishings...soooo all in all, its a really comfy figure cos we are changing all of our at least 30 year old furniture. as for the window grills, its by hdb so, maybe can ask those in hdb? Wow! what a nice view you had.! Isn't it a waste to have a full height windows block by the half done ugly grill? I believe it can be taken out. No problem. Today tampered glass is more strong as comparable to metal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So i guess i have to go to both and check.Btw what brand is this mixer? Do they carry their own in-house brand?Coz i saw the 'krisroz' brand mixer that looks exactly the same as yours but it has black lines on the handle. Can't see from the pic if yours has the black stripes. But the Krisroz one is selling at $150 at Hoe Kee!! Edited November 2, 2007 by Bethel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But the Krisroz one is selling at $150 at Hoe Kee!!mine doesn't have any black lines and its total stainless steel so its heavier and more resistant to scratches. will check the brand of the mixer and let u know.

This looks good and better than the strawberry_pear one. As hers has a sharp angle that look like a blade. Just like a knife pointing at you when you are doing washing. Bad feng shui.. lousy design Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Opps. My honest view turns into something against good. Btw do you agree in the point, grill do block the nice view and from a certain angle the tap do looks like a knife? This is good will from me but articulate it in a wrong manner, if possible change it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is good will from me but articulate it in a wrong manner, if possible change it. Oh dear...just a tap only leh..also can look like knife... I feel that her tap looks quite ok and i would hv bought the same tap also if i couldn't find my dream tap...Anyway, it's strawberry_pear's tap, and what is most impt is how she views it and what she choose to believe in... !! I'm quite sure she's not superstitious...You are what you think, negative thoughts won't do us any good so choose to think on the bright side and cut off all negative thoughts!

Bad feng shui.. lousy design ...dun see anything wrong with strawberry_pear's tap. it's individual preference and if u feel that it's really that bad, u might want to keep your remarks to yourself..rather than hurting ppl with your "sensible" thought...
