taichipanda 3 Report post Posted May 10, 2012 ...told the ID i wanted a dining table built in coming out from the kitchen top since i was doing open concept and end prodict was quite nice i feel.. only thing is i had a hard time looking for dining chairs as kitchen top is higher.. Oh orh... why your ID didnt suggest to you and the contractor to lower the dining table height by 10~12cm? You will have a tough time finding the right dining chair as normal dining chair is too low while bar stool is too high. Maybe you can try custom made bench.

Hoo8899 0 Report post Posted May 11, 2012 PS: the worksmanship by the supreme people is quite good.Mine one also done up by them, I signed the package directly with them at Expo, can't comment on the workmanship because any problems will be find out only at later stage. I chosen them because of their so-called lifetime warranty on their products and workmanship. Talking about this, you need to probably ask your ID whether you are given life time warranty too for the floor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yup, no high backing for bar stools. I also don't like that but no choice cos the height of our table top is not normal dining table height. Saw your pic of many chairs but none that I like leh.
