guy77 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2009 skyblue, i think the best way to find out is to go try. Mattress and sofa need to try them out to see. Long term use le. My mattress not expensive. $500 plus only. When next time I have more money, keke, will buy the more expensive range. Cos the difference in comfort I think is very large.

skyblue 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2009 Sorry, it is a re-post (#593). Think pinkpetter didn't read previous page... ..... I went to Univonna at IFC Sungei Kadut. The sofas are super comfy... but when I saw the price tag I got a small shock and was ready to walk out then the lady offered to show me the catalogue.. inside I found an older model which wasn't in their showroom... a 4-seat L shaped sofa measuring almost 2m in PU-soft material was only $980!!!! I quickly said I wanted that one. hahahaha ..... Sorry ah, guy77, need to "hijack" to ask pinkpetter about the photo above (posted 2 months ago wor, haha) on the right - bar table: (1) Is it bought in the same shop - Univonna? If not, where can I find such tables? (2) What is the height (from floor to table top) of this bar table? (3) How much does it cost? (4) Were there a lot of selections on the type of bar tables? I am looking for bar tables, but not sure where to start. I hope pinkpetter could shed some light on this. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Total $223 excluding chairs. Thanks, ashes02, appreciate your response. By the way, how "tall" is the table? And are there a few selections or just this one? If just this one, it might be too big (or long rather) for my study/work room. I was thinking a round top... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skyblue 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2009 actually i went to seahorse to get the storage bed!it cost me only $400!consider very cheap liao! i went to the expo furniture min also need $800 not to mention that seahorse one is leather-made! I realised they have installation and transport charges!Unless u purchase morethan $1000 then all will be waive! So i decided to buy a mattress there at $500+ still less than $1000 then i bot the foldable single mattress at $39.50. After purchase,i realised there are few sofa and come across this sofa selling at $800 which is consider cheap! Its all leather except the very bottom part and the backing is not leather,and the sales staff told me these are the 2 places that your body wont be in contact with,so its not an issue,which is true enough! u can feels that the leather seat is much softer after u feels the backing of the sofa! I ended up $1800 poorer lor. Ok, that's it! Will go there and take a look, no later than this weekend! Haha... Oh, by the way, can I pay by credit card 0% interest ah??
