Yup, in sunny Singapore. Our consideration - Energy consumption - Quietness of operation- Auto sensor feature- Vented dryer with a tube at the back is a no no.- we heard that Korea brand have a bad rep for dryer- Can it be mounted or stacked?- Capacity- PriceIn the end, we got a Bosch Condenser Dryer WTS86516SG. Took just a few days to decide since we are only considering Bosch and Electrolux, and there was not alot of choices.Did I already mention I live in sunny Singapore.

I din and the carpenter was slightly pissed that I wasted his time trying to decide (which is true).Since I'm only doing 4 pieces, I could have picked it up within the hour. But was rushing back to work, so collected only the next day.Don't forget to pick up trimmings and pegs to hold up the board in the cabinetAnother tip maybe to order a slightly narrower board in case it doesn't fit. Now I'm slightly concern that the boards are too well fitted that it may jam the door.Going to put it together this weekend...or maybe eventually.

StaleBread 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2013 If you need full length mirror for your wardrobe (like we do), can consider thishttp://www.framesandglass.com/mirrors.htmlOrdered three 38 x 160 x 0.3 cm mirrors for $98 per piece (our door was 40cm wide btw)Include delivery and installationTheir shop is near Boon Keng Mrt and my workplace. So was very convenient for me to drop by and pay depositThey also answer sms queries quite promptly We may even get tempered glass from them (for our coffee table top).90 x 60cm for $72, but need additional $40 for delivery. So guess we will cash and carry instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did u take public transport or taxi when back in S'pore?we actually brought a handheld trolley with us.they were not heavy. just cumbersome to carry. We walked to Plaza Pelangi and caught a cab from there to JB Sentral. Remember to ask if he is running on meter. Should cost around RM$10.Took 170 after Malaysia custom and took a cab from Kranji. Most challenging part of the journey was the bus ride, due to the bulky purchase. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're right tat bringing the stuff onto the bus would be a hassle. I would hve thought u would hve taken the S1 bus back to JB Sentral....but then again, it cost only RM$10....so it's cheap. Again, thanks for sharing.....most helpful indeed. So, how is the fan working out for u? It is as good as u expected? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
