Their's is a good case of excellent marketing strategies! Toshiba is cool. I got Sharp Plasmacluster as we arent heavy users and dont need an inverter.Continue with the friendly debate, it'll be the winner's choice! Good luck!

Good luck!I seldom use AC oso.. my hubby cannot stand hot, but his house has no AC.. hehe I assume he will on AC almost everynite at our new house.. so better buy inverter since we can afford it now My hubby dun trust sales talk.. we went into the AC shops in IMM, we din even know that Toshiba Inverter existed until the salesperson told us abt it.. den we were told that Mitsubishi is the best seller, Toshiba 2nd and Daikin 3rd.. my hubby jus wan to find out more about Toshiba AC and see if its reliable anot before committing few thousands on it.. so I'm researching on Toshiba AC and trying to convince him to get it!! !! I dunnoe the reason y I just detest StarMex leh.. mayb I am not willing to contribute to Jack Neo's Salary.. hahaha...

I read the thread liaoz..actually after running to a few A/c shops.. Starmex seems to b a better option..Toshiba pricing fluctuate alot.. the range goes from $2400 - $2550. Starmex pricing is rather consistent. Heard from a salesperson from natural cool that Starmex may have a new design when the next shipment comes in Mid-Late April.

I think our final decision is StarMex liao..oic... but i still it's cheap for an inverter system....actually the salesman told me if we dun switch on the for long hrs everyday.. like 2x unit for 10hrs or more a day... an inverter system really dosen't save much on bills.. cos we are out working most of the time... not worth it lor... but if ur mit aircon only $2500 i think can buy lah... quite cheap.. we were quoted around $3k for an inverter model(with 1 big and 2 small units) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think after we get the inverter A/c den we'll on A/c 8hrs every night.. hahaha.. fully make use of the inverter a/c.. actually we dun mind paying for an inverter system as we can afford it now.. its much better than changing from non-inverter to inverter system after a few yrs time when we realise that the bills r killing us my hubby is into energy saving and oso $$ saving.. so inverter system is the only consideration for us..

krisietong 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2007 Latest Damage $2764 Toshiba Sys 3 Inverter with upgrade to 1/2" insulation and copper pipe grade 22 and additional 4 yrs unlimited repair warranty. Reason for changing mind again is bcos the total cost for Toshiba after the upgrade is within our budget !! the $50 toilet door from HDB!! mai hiam buai pai la.. there r 2 layer of flim.. the inner layer is very thin.. after that layer is peeled off, the acrylic is actually quite bright.. will need to wait till the reno is completed den can show its 'true colour' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
