QUOTE(VKS286 @ Jun 29 2011, 05:59 PM) Guys For landed property, is it necessary to have hood? Isn't exhaust fan at a minimum is sufficient? Please advice... My thinking is that it is becoming more of an aesthetic item rather than being really functional. Possible also because it becomes cheap when offered in a package. Added on June 29, 2011, 6:01 pmAnother thing, for the mechanical moving trays/cabinets. Can they last for long for what you'll have seen? I've heard that these give away after 2 years? Not sure if true or not... Exhaust fan yes, maybe 2 to 3 unit of 8". A single unit is just not enough. Furthermore the plastic are not made to stand heat. So got to install higher and efficiency will be reduce. Unless you install the Restaurant type, about 18"  Added on June 29, 2011, 7:50 pmQUOTE(Serofax @ Jun 29 2011, 06:23 PM) now that you mentioned mechanical trays... has anyone here been using BLUM systems? or does any KC maker uses or installed this system before? any comments on reliability and pricing? i believe IKEA cabinets uses all BLUM systems. Another good brand from German is Hafele. This post has been edited by weikee: Jun 29 2011, 07:50 PM

QUOTE(Eleganz Concept @ Jul 31 2011, 10:37 PM) Wow, that really a good stuff, but dono what is the cost compare to granite, and i do believe malaysia really dont have this 1. For US, is more expensive cause is very labor intensive. But is much nicer and have lots of selection and customizable. Is more expensive than granite.

QUOTE(bhtan @ Aug 1 2011, 11:42 PM) My countertop is quartz stone. Just installed about 2 weeks ago so I have not used it extensively. So far so good. My white color quartz stone (dry kitchen, island, laundry) is better looking than my black color one (wet kitchen) although the black one looked more impressive in show room. Granite is natural stone. Quartz stone is made from quartz with resin. Granite despite harder than marble but as natural stone still porous. On the other hand, quartz is much harder, non porous, scratch resistance and has more color options. If your budget allows, go for quartz surface but prepare to pay at least RM300 to Rm600 per ft run for countertop. Hmm, my dry kitchen is about 10ft. wow 3k to 6k. Very Very deep pocket.

QUOTE(bhtan @ Aug 2 2011, 12:24 AM) May be I should clarify this. The China made ones are much cheaper and much more affordable. In fact you can also get 2x2 quartz tiles if there is budget concern. I forgot to say mine is imported quartz stone from Spain - one of the leaders in making quartz stones.  I'll go for the best quality my $$ can afford. Maybe Granite first.

QUOTE(Erny_Looi @ Sep 5 2011, 04:14 PM) Walao, are you serious? Sometime you have to make sure that they really understand what you request, then only them won't touch up so many times... Yes, I saw the photo after first installation, the door are so bad align, and her husband climb up look at the cabinet top, got big holes. The side of the cabinet cover also chip off. Is not about understand, they don't have real professional doing the installation. All done by new worker.

Kubiq is modular like Ikea. If they can manufacture in bulk is cheaper. Not sure if you can customize, like covering a gap, or put more storage area on top level.
