And there are a million tips out there on removing stubborn stains (choy), so all in all you ought to be alright! The IKEA kitchen planner staff and subcon deserves complimentary letters that I'm going to write come next next week once my kitchen is in!! :dance:Seriously!! Was already giving up on my IKEA kitchen. Now I love what they've come up with for me! I generally look after my things ok (as a tenant my solid top in white is nicer than most residents here) and the brand is not bad so hopefully will be alright. Can't wait to enjoy the fruits of my labour!Should be done by end of October the whole house.Hehehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feeling excited to move in to my first house of my own.Maybe should organise some shopping trip together for fellow forumers to share experiences and knowledge.Haha congrats!YAY My taobao loots are in the warehouse today! But I'm going to resist the temptation to deliver it tomorrow since everything is coming to my new place on Wednesday.Bought 2 x Mayfair toilet bowls today (wanted to get the Baron W888 that everyone raves about, but the sales guy insist that no difference one Gerberit or not, so I decided to trust his opinion and save myself $120). Looks "stylish" enough to go next to my Hansgrohe stuff and bathtub. Went back to my trusty Fanco Aroma (54" for living and 46" for bedrooms) even though the Heritage people said it wasn't good... But HL guys said it was quite a good model. My current model has been discontinued I think! Now come all the new stylo-mylo energy saving engines one, $500 a pop, not about to spend that kind of money on ceiling fans. Also bought all the remaining electronics, paid for my 2 vanities and sinks, and my entire kitchen. BIGGEST spending day ever!Going back for the last of furniture on the 11th. I am never shopping at IKEA Tampines if I can help it again...Leftover big items:- My 55" + 42" TVs- Kitchen CountertopDecided to just buy a bulb for the bombshelter. So easy to clean, zhng the inside for what?! Haha! Since I ordered 1 less Philips waterproof and sealed light so mai geh kiang... Just but a normal 8W LED bulb can already. Save money, save the earth, brighten the room. No one go see my bombshelter light swee anot one la!! Haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bykaraanne 30 Report post Posted September 30, 2015 LOOT UPDATE!Everything came and was 90% good. Only "bad" thing was the Hansgrohe Rainshower set. I personally think it's not genuine la, but the quality is still very very good (as good as the confirm genuine Hansgrohe shower set for my master) but ah wellz, it is what it is. I just don't like using fake goods a bit paiseh. I rather buy no brand than fake ma!That said, everything else came in perfect condition and was what I expected. My toilet bowls were more chio than I remember, and I saved $120 so YAY ME Fans were good and delivery uncles all said I made super good choice with all my electronics. So ok la I take lor TAOBAO DELIVERY (65DAIGOU BUY4ME)My golden kitchen faucet and my $10/set bidet spray (which is quite good quality according to my dad). It's not the prettiest but aye, can use can already, no one will go and look at it right?My HUMONGOUS Ceiling light for kitchen and foyerSame Hansgrohe taps for both bathrooms Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
