Scouting for Furniture & Kitchen

The interior part seems to be going smoothly. So now we started to scout for furniture and kitchen. We've told beverly homes that we will going to have a black couch, black tv cabinet, black dining, black coffee table. So now we spotted our ideal furniture in Harvey Norman...


As for the kitchen, we did a few rounds to several kitchen designer... Signature Kitchen, Kitchen Palace, Kuchen... Signature Kitchen provides a very good kitchen set, but quite common nowadays and ppl will straight away know it's from Signature Kitchen when they sees your kitchen ... pricing, expensive, just for the cabinet, work top and a few accesories. Kitchen Palace, well, I will never recommend anyone to visit Kitchen Palace. NEVER. When you first go in, they will treat you as a valuable customer, giving a lot of advices... very goood indeed. Normally after you discuss what kind of cabinet you would like to have, you will provide them your floor plan, and they will need 1 week to come out with the full 3D design. Kitchen Palace told us, they need 2 weeks to come out with an initial design, not 3D design yet. That is so long, fine. We waited for 3 weeks. Yet, no calls from them yet as they promise to call in 2 weeks time. So we drop by to check what happened. To my surprise, the salesman didnt even recognise us. So we explained everything and asked for our design. Well, he said he havent come out with the design yet! So i get very cranky. He said just give him 20 mins to draw out the initial design. WHATT?? He said he need 2 weeks to do that and now he said he can get it done by20 mins?? That's it, im outta here. Slammed.

So we went to next door, Kuchen, well, nice showroom they have, nice salesman, explaning everything in details, sound promising, very good. Nice and clean design, I love it... but the price is quite high though ... around 50K just for the kitchen.... very tempting ~~~~
