Re: Sydney Home Show 2008 - Free Double Passes 53May 05, 2008 10:15 am Thanks a lot to the ForumOne for the tickets. I wouldn't have gone if I had to buy the tickets by myself!
It was good... but I think the people who renovate may benefit a lot more than the people who build with building companies. I loved that automatic lawnmower.. but somehow didn't feel confident to buy it! We didn't end up buying anything but at least my wife bought a foundation (or something sounds similar) ! Thanks again to the ForumOne for the tickets. - devank Re: Sydney Home Show 2008 - Free Double Passes 54May 05, 2008 11:51 am Thanks again for the tickets. We were in two minds whether to go or not but since we were already in Sydney for the Foo Fighters concert we decided to go. Had a good time looking at everything. Seriously looking now into cBus systems - and got some seriously hot Vindaloo curry from one of the sites. this is how we looked after we cooked it on Saturday night Re: Sydney Home Show 2008 - Free Double Passes 55May 05, 2008 12:50 pm kyton Thanks again for the tickets.

Clipsal don't advertise it, but it's the cheapest and simplest method of getting home automation and paying for extra features as you need them.

I thought it was good - I wish there had been more kitchen appliance companies and lighting companies - I was hoping for some really amazing lighting options - modern chandeliers etc but could see very little The automatic mower did it for my hubby as well - he was very impressed, also with the racing seat for the video games .... The home theatre section was a bit dull, only a couple of options and that huge Bose stand .... I did love those heavy timber doors with the metalwork ... some of those were amazing - also the options for door handles (external) were quite impressive (we took some photos of them) We ended the day back at the Liquid Kitchen picking up a Cocktail making kit (signed by the author of course) ... at least we know what kind of house warming party we are going to have All in all a good day out and I collected lots of information which is good to mull over Fiona Re: Sydney Home Show 2008 - Free Double Passes 57May 05, 2008 8:34 pm I'd like to add my thanks for the tickets also. After my rude comments about my neighbours (but still deserved based on past experiences) our tickets were delivered on the Friday of the show. They had been delivered to Balranald!
Hopefully some of the displays have given us enough inspiration to get to work on our renovations. We are seriously thinking of replacing our side gates with the aluminium wood lookalikes by Ali Wood or DecoWood. I couldn't believe how realistic they looked. Another eye opener was the modern open fires with glass surrounds. I cannot imagine having the open flame coming out of the top of my coffee table, however. How could you feel safe walking by, let alone have children or pets. I think this was by Ecosmart. I fell in love with the Schmidt Kitchen display as the quality was so good. However, when I googled this company at home it was described as the 'Rolls Royce of European kitchen design'. I imagine that the prices will match. Finally, the designer rooms were unappealing to my untutored eyes. Did anyone else feel that they were nothing special? Though I must admit that the room by Greg Natale made me feel that my taste must be fantastic as I am obviously at the forefront of modern design. He had 3 blue ceramic horses as a focal point and guess who has one exactly the same which I bought 30 years ago!! Edited to add that anyone who is thinking of purchasing the mower which moves around on its own should make sure that it is suitable for their property. I spent a week staying opposite a house where we could see one of these at work every day and there were definite areas where it would not go such as the top of a slope and near certain bushes. But it was still fun to watch. I’m in a similar position except I’m after sliding 3 stacking doors. I am on a second-story apartment of which the balcony would not adequately fit any bi-fold or… 5 17533 Current door width is approx 2700, looking to have double doors fitted 820-820. What size does the frame need to be before door jamb? Thanks 0 4174 |
