Hi,

Your hansgrohe set is rain shower type? Where you get your sanitary wares from?

The colour of the kitchen cabinet and the sliding door match perfectly!!

Hi, did I see it right? Your 3 piece hansgrohe set is S$360??? Where and when you bought? My set olehdi close to 1k liao different model lah

yeah, luckily e color combi of e kitchen turns out ok. we have no drawings, only pure imagination!

Nope my hansgrohe is not e rain shower type. normal shower set but with 4 functions - shampoo, massage, rain, normal. I got them from this shop called vivavue (cant rem if i spelt the name correctly). its at geylang lor 30+ (cant rem e exact add) some of e shops at geylang sells e hansgrohe in special package price. it comes in a 3 piece set with e shower head, the basin mixer, spout or nonspout.

there are diff design, of cos my is e lowest range. there are more beautiful ones but outta of my budget.

n again diff shops have diff price n packages.

as for e sanitary ware its a promo. e name of e shop is estilo (again, duno whether its correct spelling n its a street or so away from vivavue from where i got my hansgrohe).

e baron WC + round basin is $279.

if choose square basin is $299.

but of cos got to add pop up stopper etc n price is b4 GST.

but this is e best price we came across from hunting so many shops.

i like baron cos of its 1 piece design. nice n sleek. it comes in black too but i tink not much stock left.

e tap mixer

e shower head

WOW, designer bath accessories leh... me oso wan... but no $$$

rdnest > we did our sums. if we buy those taps, nice looking ones but nvr heard of their name, a tap is easily 100+ n still havent buy e shower set, e total price of these 3 items oso came close to 300. tot with another 60 can get hansgrohe so y not?

rondy > yes u can get e sink dirt cheap but can you get a baron toilet at say $200 odd? i have been to at least more than 5 shops and all quoted me at least $300+ for jus e toilet alone.

WAH your branded shower stuff really looks good! mmmmm nice nice.

MY common toilet sink is the SAME SHAPE ONE!! heh heh!!

Eh...not sure if your WC is Baron W303? I bought mine at $190 each (minus the basin) Please pardon my pictures. Both bathrooms are 60% completed only.

Hi ben+xue, I bought mine from El Bano Gallery located at geylang if I am not mistaken. Some of the other shops we visited also quoted us $280 - $380 price range. Was lucky we made a timely discovery on El Bano Gallery. You cannot see the pictures which I posted? Did you try clicking on the picture if it's too small? It will enlarge the picture. Anw, your place is looking awesome. I like the classic design of your kitchen. Do post more pics if available...
