Hey bros,
Any comment on the furnitures & lighting shop at viva home?
It seem like I can get all the things at viva home.

I go there quite often, can get a lot of inspiration for home furnishing.

Sover lighting - mainly sell ceiling light , price and design is ok
Achiever premium- variety of designer lights. price is on medium to high end, so have to negotiate hard since now no sales.
LC Lighting - high end lights and fans- price very expensive, staff don't bother to layan, so you can 6c6c as you like.

Thanks bro. I'm planning to go there by this weekend.
Wanted to get everything done before cny.
Will go for Achiever premium, to get some design light.
I heard that Puchong got a lot of lighting shop, any idea on it?

Yeah, Puchong have a lot of shops near IOI mall. You can just walk around and will discover the shops. But after I went four five shops I think Koo Lighting (Bandar Puteri Jalan Puteri 4/6) is recommended. The price is reasonable , they don't jack up the price like other shops but their shop renovation not so grand like Achiever. I won't recommend Phillip because now no sale, so discount they can give maybe 10% only. Sale time can get 30%-50%.

Is achiever considered cheap?labelled them as expensive due to one led light but i could be wrong.

Been to topten and house of lights and STILL im undecided what downlight to get, what t5 to get for my plaster ceiling

Price wise Achiver marked up kow kow especially on the more expensive range. I saw one pendant light selling RM5k at achiever, i bought from exhibition fair for RM2,500. I did buy one pair of LED wall light (RM320 each) from achiever as i need it urgently, after bargain, it is slightly about the same price from Top Ten (RM300). I guess the key is to bargain hard for high range item and for cheaper range to negotiate 15-20% discount from them.

For Top ten/house of light their fans are very cheap but lighting products like downlight and T5 pricing is comparable with other shops.

Price and quality depend what you choose / want. There is no standard price & quality. Go to their shop and find out. My pricing is almost 2+ years now. No longer valid.

Tqtq, i will go there to have a look.
What is the brand u recommended?

No need to go for any particular brand. Choose the design that you think suit your house.

I will pay a visit in near future to check it out. Thanks.

Well the most popular shop is in puchong. I bliv most.pf you heard top ten or house of lighting. Thier prices arr low but always crowded and most of the items no stock unless u get their fsst moving items like downlights n fans. Bought some the items there but didnt want to fo therr again, pening la with all those crowd and the salesperson never entertain us unless we confirm wan to buy things

Top Ten ( near tesco) & Houses Lighting (near aeon big) in Puchong are the cheapest I've found.

It Is hard to say which is better Lighting Shop. I have been doing architectural And interior works for Sometime now And finding cheap but good quality ones soooo susah one. But the best option for you guys Is to get to know the sales person Or manager. If anything happend Easy to change those defect item. Sometimes even big Lighting Shops sell China Or Taiwan made product.

Most item now made in China, even Philips high end LED also made there. It will be great if you can share some shops that provide good service and reasonable price products.

I'll always go to Avalon lighting shop for normal clients but the high profile ones I will take them to Lightcraft or Alfo lighting because a lot of imports from Italy , Germany etc. like I mention earlier it is good to know the person in charge of the shop. I can always ask them to reduce their comisyen per pendant or special lighting on their side.
Normal down light the sales team have no comisyen but if you are interested to buy a pendant light , chandelier , you can always ask them to minus their comisyen a bit

I guess being in the reno/ID profession do have its advantages as the shop supervisor is keen to keep a good relationship with you and give a better discount. As for Avalon i have been to their warehouse sales, completely dissapointed (very limited outdated stocks and not cheap also )and after that i don't bother to visit their showroom.

Dropped by at viva home yesterday. Went to a few light shops including achiever premium and another one beside it. Interestingly, the designs there were waaay fresher and more modern than the designs available at other shops ive been to. Yes the price might be higher but there are also pendant lights between 200-500 which i feel looked fantastic

has anybody bought Philips brand lighting fixtures? I wonder if they are made in China for Philips and if the quality is any good?

Yes I bought. Made in China although price is so expensive. Quality is ok but for that kind of price and design, I could get better value in other brands.

thank you
actually i only like two of their chandelier... will scout around first for alternatives
