If by 3D, u meant 3D drawing, then no. We did not get 3D drawings. But we will get to see the perspective drawing though u do not get to keep it.....:)

lol...I do not remember seeing it in GR link when I was there last week......

I do not think it is Toto......the picture I took is from Crizto web site which kind of look the same....:)

There are a couple of single piece WC that cost around $200.....lol...but this one had my attention.............:)

My wife always said I am always obsessed with nice toilet bowl (the last one we bought cost $500...:)..). Despite assuring her this time round I will not get obsessed with looks and focus on functionality, lol.....I still had my eye on this............:)

Though it was bargain down from $500+, I am still a teeny weeny sceptical...........

A bit lazy hahahaha,,,,,so instead of going round hunting for it...I thought I asked around here...........

P.S.did not see this in SSC or Hoe Kee, the thought of going down to Jalan Besar is quite stressful as the parking there is horrendous....:)

if it's crizto u can ask GR Link cos they may be able to get cos space in shop is limited....

so far I have no problem parking at Jl Besar leh. I jus park at either the open space lots one road before or the multi storey carpark near the Jl Besar FC. can find space one lah.

or alternatively u hv model number hor, call up GR Link and enquire. they should be able to give u a price over the line if they carry it. Then saves u the trip to go down to check it out. Alternatively, u can try checking Summer Trading at Toa Payoh. Heard it's a good price for their items there and service is good too. I wanted to go there initially but cos hubby n friend wanted to check out Jln Besar so in the end settled with GR Link.

lol.....1st hiccup............

the Mitsubishi Heavy air con we purchased cannot work with our Berker EIB system (home automation) despite earlier assertion from Hong Tar that i would. So it looks like Fujitsu so far is the only brand that can commit to Hong Tar that it will work....:)

very likely will switch to Fujitsu, awaiting their quote and most likely there will be some modifications needed on the false ceiling...:)

lol...comes with the unit....but do nothing much actually especially for the air-con which it is just a simple on/off from the wall switch instead of the remote controller. One would have thought any air-con would support this, but was quite surprise to find out that most brands is a either/or situation, i.e. u can either on/off aircon from the switch of remote but not both.

Initially,. was not too particular about it. But then I realized my mum also struggle with the air-con remote control, thus it will be easier if we pre-program the air con and then all she need to do it is to on/off the switch and not to press the remote button. Most of the time, she end up putting the air-con in dry mode and then complain not cold.....:)

For my kids, we will keep the remote so that the settings will all be set and they do not fiddle with it....:)
