DR KOH KHO KING

Finally, bought my dinning table last Saturday. Have wanted a 8 seaters table, long rectangular type. Wanted a Lorenzo one, RM3200, too bad no stock available and they said their container got burnt at sea, so delayed stock till end of Oct or Nov. Can’t wait that long, so finally last Saturday my wife and I went to shop for our dinning table (we have moved into our new home for over a month…).

Went to two nearby furniture stores, saw a marble one, ok look but don’t really have the feel of wanted to buy. Somehow feel the workmanship a bit rough. Not cheap either at RM3.6k.

Then my wife suggest to go to Rustica, nearby as well. Quite similar to Lorenzo, quality workmanship. Saw one simple round table and one 8 seaters rectangular table. I find the rectangular type a bit old design, not modern type and not matching my house. I kinda like the round one, but it is only 6 seaters. Talked to the sales girl, and yes can add extra table at RM290 each, so become 8 seaters. Somehow it makes the table small then (5 feet diameter table). At last, we decided not to take the extra two chairs, and make it more spacious for our dinning room, as need a space for Megumi’s personal baby chair to slot in.

So, this is our dinning table. RM4.5k original, after discount (Raya promotion?) becomes RM3k.

Megumi’s chair is on the left, and there is extra two chairs on the left if needed. Though small but in actual use it brings closer the space and relationship of those who dine together.

(Simple solid wood with glass on the table. Simple chair with light brown leather or PU or PVC, not sure.)

Some might say it is already outdated, but I can tell you children just LOVES it!

Purposely installed it on the staircase wall for Megumi. She loves it!

Bought a dustbin last week at Jusco.

Quite modern look. Opened is like any other dustbin…to store garbage.

Price? RM45. There are red and blue colour available. I think red suits my house more.

I need two TVs for my house, one for living room and another for my bedroom. LCD or Plasma, and I have decided on LCD. Plasma seems darker and not as high resolutions as LCD TV.

I bought one few months ago, Sony KLV-40V400A model, at a bargain price of below RM2.9k (after discount and minus out Jusco voucher) during Jusco Day at Bukit Indah, Johor. Every RM100 purchase will get a RM10 voucher from Jusco during Jusco Day. That model is getting discontinued, hence the bargain price.

The design is quite nice and sleek.

Today, I bought another one, Sony KLV-40S550A, entry model to Sony LCD TV, at RM3030 (after all discount and minus out vouchers). Free one Sony MP3 walkman (2GB only). Newer model but not as high range as the V series. In Sony, S is the entry model, followed by V then W then…etc. (out of my reach). Even the W series is already too expensive for me (over RM6k for 40″).

This is how the S series looks like:

Yeah…quite ordinary look with no shinny side and front panel or translucent panel. Speakers is hidden type.

The salesman is trying to push the V series to me, but I just don’t feel like paying extra RM630 (and no free MP3 player) for the V series with only few insignificant extra features and deco. My wife will definitely go for the cheaper model, and I have told myself initially that I don’t need to spend $$$ for my bedroom TV. After a nearly 45 minutes thought and checking here and there, I decided on the S series. Haha…the salesman sure looks disappointed, but I am quite happy and relief with my decision (my credit card is relief too).

Moved to my new house today. The home of Megumi, Lydia and I. Home sweet home, God with us! Jesus Christ the Lord of our home.

Thank God for the grace and blessing.

My designer is kind enough to illustrate to us different colours of our kitchen cabinets.

Which one is nicer? Actual product will be very similar to the current designer’s impression.

Sahara Beige

Alaska White

Maroon

Rim Grey

This is what I bought for my gate and fence. Gate is bigger than fence.

Quite modern look, actually quite headache choosing the preferred light. I think this one is acceptable.

Big one is RM88, small one is RM78. Add extra RM10 for the light bulb inside.

Today I asked a designer of a nearby furniture maker to come to my house to do some quotations of built in furniture cost of my house.

Basically below are what I plan to do:

• Living Room TV Rack and Backdrop
• Kitchen Sliding Door (my door is 4 feet, which is too heavy if using wood as according to the designer, so he suggested aluminum with glass.)
• Kitchen U shape cupboard (up and down)
• Master Bedroom Cupboard
• Master Beedroom TV Rack + Backdrop
• Master Bedroom Bed+Floor
• 1st Room Upstairs Cupboard (I did ask roughly the cost, which is over RM3k for a sliding door type. Wah…expensive leh…can buy full set of bed + cupboard already and still some money left!)

Built in furniture is really expensive. My budget is not more than RM40k for the above, hopefully can do. Will get a quotation first before deciding (might cut here and there…most probably the last item).

I think the existing one in my house is very rough and does not look nice.

Search the internet and found some nice one.

I think it is the chrome connector that makes the difference.
