should be under 30k ba.. now about 25k only.

both the hose and the tap has screw threads, so i just screw it in. shoving wouldn't work :D

Kitchen sink slanted.. means, u sort of like put the sink on the hole (top mount), then u rotate it. So it is slanted on the x-axis, not the y-axis.

Yes it is odourless, but i still smell something, and it makes me nauseous. Dunno why....

wow that's kinda... weird.. your plumber trying to play punk?

don't use the aircon. ventilate your rooms. should be fine after 1 week.

Still trying to figure out how mine works..... the connector of the hose has no thread....

wow that's kinda... weird.. your plumber trying to play punk?

I think i am a perfectionist/ But again, if the person doing the job put in more effort, it should be straight. i should classify this as worksmanship problem...

don't use the aircon. ventilate your rooms. should be fine after 1 week.

yean.. my unit is quite windy usually, if i open up the kitchen window and the main door....

toilet bi-fold is from pang giap, 270+GST (their official price is 280+GST)

whats the deciding factor for having mixture of tandem drawers and baskets in the same unit?

price, efficiency, safety and aesthetics.

price) 1 tandem drawer + basket drawers would cost $230 while full tandem drawers would cost $353 or $440 depending if you take the 3-tier or 5-tier. i don't know about you, but i rather pay half the price for similar things :D

efficiency and safety) tandem drawers are good for things you use frequently, while the basket drawers would be for things you use less frequently. drawers are great because you can maximise your space and protect your back as you can reach the deepest item without stretching in.

aesthetics) it's nice to have sleek lines running across the entire stretch of the kitchen. as you can see, i have one horizontal line running in line with the bottom of my sink. if you have some full drawers and some doors, you won't be able to achieve this effect.
