Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Since discovered that the timber laminate is Laminex Select Beech which looks nothing like the way it's photographed….arggh!...actually non of the colours look like real like....arggh! x 2.....much more natural timber tones in real life. The real estate photos are a closer match to the actual thing… Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Anyway oven has gone and been replaced by a oven/griller unit (Westinghouse I think…can’t remember) which leaves a hole above the oven which needs to be filled. Getting quotes to create a microwave nook (microwave currently in pantry which is not ideal) and adjust some cabinetry. The hotplate was also replaced last week (although we've had it sitting in the garage for ages) to a 700 mm wide Blanco five burner…fits perfectly and works a treat…and so much easier to clean....apparently....

Yeah it's a bit of a compromise between keeping the kids away from the controls (DS1 has never touched the hotplate) and making it slop proof. I think only the 700 mm wide Blanco has the controls on the front which is how they squeeze the five burners in....the 900 has them along the side....but I'm happy to be corrected.

Re: Château TDL: The Kitchen Chapter....Minor Mods 10Oct 07, 2008 8:03 pm I wouldn't get miffed. But I am looking forward to starting the building process so I can show pictures of Casa de Casa. Demolition August 2009, Construction Started September 2009, Completed December 2010 Thanks for sharing. Looks good. The joiner has come back with a quote of close to 5k. I think we are going to not do it. Attaching panelling is something they are dead… 11 10088 The gap can be adjusted so it's tighter. You can definitely set up corner cabinets to have the same gap as standard doors. 2 8587 No. It's not original. Circa early to mid 90s would be my guess and maybe even as late as early 2000s 1 3664 |
