Come join us & share why you like to go Mr. DIY even though you have nothing to bai. What you bought recently in Mr. DIY & what products you recommend in Mr.DIY.




I bought a few Fire Extinguisher, price quite cheap rm15-20 only, outside sell at least rm50-60 for small cans, but very laku always sold out.

I also bought a cheap USB fan to blow my external HDD when doing big transfers, can fold flat somemore, but abit noisy, but rm5.

I also bought some small mirrors for rm2.50, quite handy for underskirt views.

I also bought a compass.

Then i bought the hot glue refill after buying the glue gun from Daiso.

I also bought a double sided screwdriver.

The round batteries also worth it whole strip for under rm5.

Also bought a big Tote bag for rm6.50.

Basically if you looking for sub rm5 small items Mr. DIY is the place.


I say overall their quality is pretty much China quality, but small kids want to buy things with cute cartoons printed on them got many things, their books, mirrors, bags all have cute cartoon animals, quality & printing quite good also. can beat Parkson stationary quality. I bought a incar power port expansion 3+1USB for rm5.50, dunno how good it's super cheap.

brought one box set of screwdrivers. quality liddat lo. boleh pakai sudah

nothing special... ts think its speacial bcoz its not local...

acehardware laaaa..ni apa barang...

i bought kong ming lantern for RM2.50 each.

Nut besi untuk rim color ungu

Rm2 dapat 4 biji

ace hardware much more better la

Overpriced European stocks.

wtf is this poverty shop

+1

janji ada kualiti..mahal sikit takpe...tak payah dok beli selalu..bagi aku laa...

I bought some layang-layang there~


Wait a min..... What's the point open a Fan Club here...

hardware, kitchenware toys. as seen on tv gimmicks.
cheap cheap stuff

ace hardware stuff got quality?
seriously

buy 1 scredriver in Acehardware can buy few boxes in Mr.DIY, as long as is not critical items no harm replacing them when they break.

pros: clean, variety, clear pricing

cons: a lot more expensive so you paying for aircon and cleanliness

source: im a drill man, i always go jalan jalan these shops

U got see the metal Nun-Chuck or not? So cheap!

My indoor TV booster required to be in specific position, and height from the floor. I use DAISO stuff and LEGO parts to hold it together.

well, that explains why Daiso is selling so expensive!

aircon & cleanliness. should have guessed.

same item same brand same quality, acehardware 100% more expensive, like pvc joint 15mm/half inch, mrdiy i think is RM1, acehardware is almost RM2.50, normal hardware shop RM0.60

last time ayam make home made TRX, cost about RM 50

if buy, fuu RM 400, 600, 800 i think

Ace is from US la..

Most products are imported ..... like from China

Buy DIY got cheated cheaper than cheated by ACE ... that's all

so normal five gold shops cheaper than DIY?

daiso can undercut market because they want volume, different strategy from acehardware. mrdiy is following normal retail strategy, import then rebrand to own brand, place next to big name product, but margin is much higher than big name brand

i buy their Lightbulb, much cheaper than Phillips.

for small item yes, like pvc joint, screwdriver, metal netting, etc. but if big machine, i think its about the same, like the karcher wet vacuum, i see in 5 gold shop RM380, and in giant is RM389, in mrdiy dun have

If you want quality just buy from RS online, industrial usage stuff.

exactly, it is win win situation. you win because its cheaper, they win because profit margin a lot higher than sell you the philips bulb

damn that is super expensive,, their power tool price is like 2x local distributor price of the same brand and model..

but quality how? is it as good as philips? does it last as long as phillips? hows the light quality?

OKAYYY

i dunno lol, but realistically its about the same unless you abuse it. like switching it on off on off in a few seconds. philips should last longer in that sense because of rigorous quality control by years of experience. but if you pakai baik baik jaga baik baik they should be the same.

btw i recently changed all bulbs to Qusun LED, 9watt only and in theory should last a lot longer than standard bulb. best part is little or no heat, i turn on for 5 minutes then pegang bulb stand also cool, no panas. very bright too, replaced old philips energy saving bulbs of 20w

No choice, for some rare components only way to get is through them.

I once bought philip light bulb at DIY for RM16 but at Ace selling for RM24...wondering if DIY selling imitation/fake or Ace overpriced max?

ace memang overprice max. lets say identical product, philips 11w warm light E27, average costing in market is RM8.40, normal hardware shop will sell about RM12.90, mrdiy should be RM14.90, and acehardware will go up to RM21.90 or so. rough estimation la, not exact quote. acehardware goes for big margin, mrdiy goes for a balance of volume/margin, and daiso just want to win by volume so everything fix price

inside subang summit, next door to popular book shop

i always try to buy kitchenware there. very cheap.
1 same stuff i saw in market for RM9 but in Mr DIY only RM6. even cheaper than market

Haven't seen any fire extinguisher at any Mr DIY. Can buy for me 1 if you see on sale? Thanks.

I have a question. It's Mr diy.. Mascot is a hammer. Is it a shop like for diy hardware stuff? Or full of other things? Not related to hardware? I see people say got handcraft things la.. Ribbons la.. Cheapo toys la

I also bought a cheap USB fan to blow my external HDD when doing big transfers, can fold flat somemore, but abit noisy, but rm5.

fire extinguisher just like those fragrance spray cans lo.

u punya bahasa aaa, aiyo

it is used to support the bowl or hot plate. so it would touch the food

I go Malaysian hardware store and thank gawd we have Blackwoods and Master here.

So sed. Malaysian cannot into good tools.

not-so-good quality stuff there....however some of the hand drill is quite cheap there..bosch brand...maybe china made...hmm...

bunnings warehouse

jizzed

errr... off topic abit...

Where can I get cheapest and good hammer drill in KL? can give the brand as well ?

hehehehe

They sell useful stuff but.... made in China. If u watch how these product made in China, probably think again.

im looking for stanley test pen,

found in Ace hardware for rm9.00, dayum, thats expensive.

then found at Aeon big only rm5. I thought i hit jackpot. Bought 1 happily.

Then found at Mr DIY for rm2.50. Farking RAGE!. Bought 2! to calm myself.

Waiiiiii

their hand gloves for bicycle is awesome.

yeah, i bought the fire extinguisher in can, just in case

don't recall seeing them.

but last year I've bought about 10 mops from them. those twisty type for slight less than RM10/piece. market price RM25 cheapest
yes, i'm a clean freak, change new mop every 2-3 months.

the down side about them is that when a particular item is sold out, it might never be restocked ever again. like the RM10 mop

bcoz my place no ace hardware liao...hav to go diy shop....

but atlest price is really2 cheap for most items...

I won't skimp on power tools.

it's either black n decker or bosch

bosch seems to have more aftermarket replacement parts though

but but but....my diy angle grinder and drill last till today...frequently used.....if cordless i woulndt dare buy cheap2..dunnow got enough torque and battery life or not

Ya can combine into a metal stick also.not bad less than 8ringgit

wow another great place for cheapster like me

bought quite a few stuff there, both useful and useless

makita would be better.. bosch close second

I buy cleaning supplies and stationery there..

stuffs including rubber gloves, fibre cloth, sometimes those sushi makers, spoons, tupperwares, knick knacks and stuffs

just because i prefer established brands, doesn't mean that non branded sux

only own a makita table top saw. other than the regular carbon brush change, built quality is good.
i don't have any other table top saw for direct comparison though

i got makita grinder. best of the best. nothing beats this or comes close. karcher grinder send back warranty 2 times liao. dulan.

mr diy i buy alot of cheap stuff. all workable. nonpowered tools, kong ming lanterns, mop and tong, microfiber cloth and some stationary.

usually i frequent MR diy in ss2 mall and kota damansara aeon big (formerly carrefour).

wah u got table top saw? what u cut?

i only got bosch mitre saw, also good 3-4years still rock solid.. cut aluminium extrusion parts
earlier was comparing the li-ion hand tools makita vs bosch.. cos i got 5-6 of them

so cheap ah???
ada photo?

oops, correction, i'm using mitre saw saw too

mostly PVC pipes, the blade is helluva expensive, about rm400 for a re-cut piece
can't use conventional wood saw blade on pvc pipes. it'll shatter the pipe

yeah the big blade dem expensive.

but i like how it cuts aluminium profile like butter smooth..

You live in Klang?

i might move to setia alam to be closer with klang vkeong

Hoi, buy where? I oso wanna buy hous in Setia Alam weyy

mangga (padlocks) are cheap there

Guys, those gap sealant from Mr DIY, there are quite a variety. Which is better? I need to seal gap between my sink and the wall.

yeah, power tools are awesome

if color is not a matter to you, i'd go for the white sealant. so far no problem. the place that you want to seal has to be dry before applying the sealant.

i got a powertool version of this..

Hi Members,

I'm looking for some cheap stainless steel stop cock,need 12 of them...due to budget, I can't b bothered with buying branded stop cocks as it easily costs more than RM50 each, furthermore, stop cock is rarely turned...does Mr. D.I.Y. sells any stop cock that costs lesses than RM30?
If not, does Members here know where I can get cheap unbranded stop cock?
thanks...

must it be stainless steel?

there's pretty good looking ball valve, not sure if it serves the same purpose that you are looking for. about Rm6/pc

stainless steel looks nicer...i think its different...some might call it as Stop Valve though..
thanks anyway..
