All things German

After two months, I must say I most look forward to this ... the Hansgrohe rainshower! Made in Germany. I first had a feel of a rainshower at the Fairmont hotel. After that, I know that I MUST have it in my next home.

Raindance S240

Comes with a thermostatic bath mixer.

Pura Vida basin mixer. Nice! Made in Germany.

Grohe accessories. German brand but I think it's made in China now.

What other German brands do we have? I drive a VW ... although I cannot speak for the quality of the 7-speed DSG ...

Our baby bottles are NUK, a German brand too.

Renovation is tough work - Part 4

After further research on Amazon, prices from other websites, I decided to buy locally. I guess the benefits would be fast delivery, local servicing and proven compatibility. Faucets bought from US would need a thread adapter to connect to our local pipes.

or me, Grohe or Hansgrohe for the bathroom would be good either way. Hansgrohe had most of their products still made in Germany. Grohe outsourced quite a number of their products to Thailand. That's for the BauLoop and BauEdge range of products.

The deal clincher was that this shop, Home and Bathroom in Balestier. It's along the row of shops where Hafary is located. It carried a extensive Hansgrohe range and the rainshower was going at a good discount, at $1,057!

Also bought another shower set (include mixer, shower pipe, basin mixer) for $373 and kitchen sink mixer for $243 from Hansgrohe.
