Angel81 1 Report post Posted May 20, 2009 Hi Angel, V. kind of u to have reply. It will be a great pleasure to have pix to view. Thanks so much! No probs. I'll go home tonight to take pics, and try to post tml. angel, your baskets for the sauces and stuff, how much are they? if i am not wrong, are they of a certain length to buy so that u can fit into your cabinet? Steel Basket Yoz! Think they're about $100. I heard from preciousjam who bought it yesterday at the same place, it's $105. Length is standard length, from what I'm told. It's the width that varies. The impt part for us was the width, as that cabinet could not be wider than 14". So we were very lucky to find one the size that we wanted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Angel81 1 Report post Posted May 20, 2009 (edited) mai tu liao...tonight go IMM Hoe Koe to window shop liao - I can't resist further! Hehe, go go! It's a should-get item. Saves lots of trouble, esp when u wana get sth when u're cooking. Oh, I think IMM Hoe Kee don't display all their ss racks. Just ask them if they have any other sizes if you don't find what u wan. That time, I went to the one near Jalan Besar, and there's quite alot more selections there. Just that they didn't have extra stock of my crockery ss basket, that's why I went to IMM to get all of mine together. While I was at IMM, I didn't see the one I wanted and asked them for it. Then they showed it out for me at some hidden corner. Edited May 20, 2009 by Angel81 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IMM got more shops to shop, compared to that stretch in Jalan Besar. Have u gotten ur lights? If haven, u can check out the Hoe Kee at Jalan Besar while searching for lights. It's around there. Save a trip to specially go down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Few months later, the area where the salt was kept got rusted…. Angel, every time I see your thread, the song Country Roads keeps playing in my head…. “Almost Heaven, West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River….” :bangwall: Edited May 20, 2009 by kthc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the internal max width of cupboard is 40cm, this cost $95.01 each Ehh I forget to check this out.... but if it is two tier (rack + track width abt 23cm) and the upper deck is half width $95.01 Edited May 20, 2009 by XiaoBinBin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IMM Hoe Kee - awful experience with the lousy service. Arghhhh Uncle/Aunty not really helpful or smiley. I end up measuring the dimensions myself >.<" Har? Sad... That time I talked to a Uncle named Steven, and he was very helpful. Most places I also measured the stuff myself. Hehe, but wen the staff saw us whipping out our trusty measureing tape, they'll approach us to ask if we need help. NVM, just heck care them and enjoy measureing and choosing ur stuff urself bah. So that means u bought the ss basket that i used to put plates? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
