piknik 1 Report post Posted April 6, 2012 Hahaha... I missed the "no money also wanna do reno part 2". Haha haha...I visited citygas showroom n talked to the staff abt the rain shower. She said, no particular model of rain shower needed. Just buy what you like loh.. The main issue would be your house's water pressure. But i would suggest you use normal water efficient hand shower/ shower head to save more water. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LLChing 0 Report post Posted April 7, 2012 Fisher & Paykel's fridge is reliable though not "futuristic" in style. My 16 yrs old F&P fridge had moved 3 places and is still working well though the exterior had started to corrode. Mine was the 348L old model cos the width of the 400+ couldn't get into our lift and main door then. Good choice, both Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

albertchng 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2012 Too bad i'm unable to poison him with SilesStone White Zeus Extreme, the whitest quartz. Naturally non-porous & never needs to be sealed. Cleaning is easy & it has a high scratch, stain & heat resistance. Built-in antimicrobial protection helps fight the growth of bacteria.Check out the white zeus extreme from this link, it is as white as the white background on the website - http://www.silestoneusa.com/colors/Those people that claimed their quartz surface was stained, most likely uses fake quartz. I got sample piece when i order the white Zeus extreme for my kitchen. I can give it to you to keep 10 years, still as white as day 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ahlipz 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2012 (edited) romeltic, the entry level Grohe Rainshower was on sale but the mid range was not on offer.I was not too keen with the entry level, which was made in Thailand and it was a combination of metal + plastic.Smart move by Grohe, otherwise I will get the mid range rainshower.
