I’ve decided on blanco sublime 700u anthracite. Currently there’s a bundle price with Grohe mixer. I’m likely to give Grohe mixer a pass having read some of the reviews here. I just visited a hansgrohe showroom and quite liked their matris select 71. The height is 32cm and the other model is 22cm. I prefer the taller one but am concerned about water splashing out. Is it something I should be worried about? What about finishing? I like chrome but what I have now in chrome (no brand) is stained with watermarks and scratches. Stainless steel finishing does look great as opposed to my earlier thought.

Finally decided on the kitchen mixer.

I just realised stainless steel one is pricier than chrome one. Chrome is better looking but it's prone to scratches. I found some good deals online but too bad they don't ship to Malaysia.

So far the one does ship to Malaysia is a Taobao seller (代购 buy-on-behalf service) based in Germany. RM2100 inclusive of shipping by DHL. It's slightly more expensive with tax included if it's shipped to China. I have three options here:

1. Ship directly to Malaysia and pray that I don't get taxed
2. Ship to China and then use a bulk forwarder service inclusive of import duties
3. Source from local dealers (will get some quotes from them to get a feel on the price difference)

No idea on the tax rate. Spent an hour in vain googling for the info.

Found this website which ships to Malaysia - https://www.eurohomedirect.com/. Free shipping for orders above RM9k.

It's not worth it though. Their prices are at a premium and items are still subject to import tax.
