Our Dream Home~

Recommended Posts

WAHLAO, seriously, I can't believe you all using hot water to bath! It's so freaking hot in Singapore here and I need to use cold water to shower even in the morning.

Since we are talking about heater now, sammy jie, which brand is good for storage heater? To be honest, I want to have instant heater as you turned on, got the hot water. My wife always complaining on the storage heater, as after she wake up in the morning, she need to turn on the heater first, then come back to cont sleep for another 5-10 min, then only go to bath. lol.....bit troublesome. But she want to have rain shower as well. As I reading through the post, I can only have storage heater if I'm going for rain shower right? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I am using Joven 25L Storage Heater.

What we do now @ night is to turn on the water heater for about 5-10 minutes before shower. After shower, we just turn it off. In the morning, the water is still warm (not hot) because of the left-over of last night and it's just nice for shower.

Same same here~ if the heater is turned on the night before, the water will still be warm next morning :)

I also heard Joven is good... My current home one is Ariston. Still good after 13 yrs :)

yes, if u going for rainshower u nd storage. some shops might say it can be done with instant but, IMHO, instant dun hv enough pressure that the rainshower required, even more if u stay in a high floor unit.

for storage, joven is fine. ariston is old brand used to be very very good but not sure if quality remains. but honestly, nowadays, electrical appliances are not the quality they used to be already....now depends on luck.....

ya, me too. cassanova good enough for me. the kitchen sink which u bought...show pic leh...i still thinkng what to get cos i dun intend to get too big...

reuben didi, dun worry receipt still has to be kept...at least until reno ends. so no prob. anyway Jasmine n Benny very friendly and helpful ppl. they will give u discount if they can. even not, it's lower than what we saw at balestier. my hubby and I mouth almost drop to the ground and jasmine was grinning cos seems like it's a common reaction for those who did research at balestier before going her place!

nv nv go with ur ID or contractor. the shop would hv to markup for ur ID's commission if u go with them or say they recommend you.

can say I recommend u lah cos I promised Jasmine I will advertise for her, no commission though :( so she give me small small discount.

u never buy kitchen sink ah? my hb & i fell in love with the cadino on our first visit to GR link few weeks back..then when time came to purchase, i decided to go for a crizto double-bowl one which was only half the price of the cadino..jasmine even wrote down the model number liao..then in the end hb made executive decision to go for the cadino.. we didn't take pics..not very convenient to lug my camera around :P

Cassanova is the old name for Magnum. Or rather, they are the same. Because Magnum bought over Cassanova. So if you have problems, the guys from Magnum will come over although your WC says Cassanova.

Btw, I bought this same WC + a rectangular table-top basin for 288 about a year ago from RF. Looks like prices haven't changed much...
