chocolatechipmuffin 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2008 my ID package includes a WC- but i don't 'recognise' the brand, so am thinking of 'upgrading' it to another brand coz i'm scared that if it's not good, it might cause blockage/ smelly problem a few yrs down the road. problem is, i dont know what kinda WC is 'good'. any suggestions??

jpcc 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2008 i think u need to measure the WC pipe hole to wall. Use ceiling sewage outlet of floor above as reference. The older flats are using 12" which have limited WC to choose from. There are others WC which are 3" , 5" or some other offerings. During installation, one can do some adjustment (using pan collar) but max adjustment is 2". Do your homework before shopping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chocolatechipmuffin 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2008 Hi both, thanks for the advice... yeah i think i also need to do more homework.. but was hoping to get a 'brand-wise' idea on what's good out there in the mkt... so johnson suisse, rigel & american standard are good in general huh? ya agree with jpcc u better check the outlets and inlets and when u buy better let the seller knw abt the dimensions hanging kind more ex la cos u gota do more work more like hotel kinda of look hehe ur budget 300 easy lor Johnson suisse can get below 300 Rigel also can American Standard at Hoe Kee and the list goes on..

SmartFool 0 Report post Posted August 1, 2008 wont say for sure they are better just more renowned unless u also want Toto (i consider it ex) as it is not too upmarket like the Duravits, OXO, Olympias etc personal opinion - just a piece of ceramic so 300 is gd enuf. then can spend more $$ on renovating the bathroom hehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jukemax 0 Report post Posted August 12, 2008 Hi guys, I am also new in this reno biz... I need to buy WC and heater storage tanks. Do we buy them at the same place? WC: Is TOTO good, durable & reasonable in pricing? Is it better to buy from TOTO direct or from those shops along Jln Besar? I am looking for quality. pls advise. thanks.
