strikingreality 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2011 Is it much cheaper now? Hahaa.. Things always end up cheaper, thats why shouldn't buy early.. Hehe.. Bought it at 699 in May..This washer seems to have decent reviews la, should be not bad at all. Do be careful with the chrome plated swing door though, it might tarnish if you leave acid or strong stuff on it.. Actually not sure if same model now that you mention chrome plate swing door, cuz I kinda recall mine is white swing door. Oh well. Same brand. Hahaha. Got it for $599. Re the acid wash, can you ask the ID to compensate since he damaged your items? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But Rimblock had a good review for GC. I think it's the luck of the draw, depend on which installer you get lor.Just hope that both of us get good installers. :bow: My installation will be on the 22nd July.

We actually aren't daring, we're just a little crazy.. Haha.. Luckily, wifey and I both like how it turned out. The damaged tile was very heartbreaking, we wanted to remove the tile and put in another one as we have a few extra tiles but contractor asked to let him try filling it up with marble gum before replacing it. We let him go ahead, the effects are decent, not very obvious probably because these tiles have weird patterns. So I guess we won't replace the tile anymore, too much trouble really.We can't wait for the long basin to be fixed up too! Its one of our obsessions, having that long basin where we can brush our teeth side by side.. We really like the idea of those wall taps too. Right now we're still waiting for the marble vanity top to be fabricated, once its done, plumber will come by to fix things up Nice Marble floor Thank you!

strikingreality 0 Report post Posted July 5, 2011 Ah, just found out today because you asked.2 layers of glass, inner layer of glass is removable by unhooking clips..Didn't try to remove the door.. duno can o not.. haha..You kinda answered what I wanna ask. There is a cover/seal somewhere close to the top of the door that holds the glass in place in another model I saw. That can be removed so that the glass can be cleaned. So I wanted to know if there is this feature in this model, which you have answered!Thank you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
