very happy with them so far

We went with shelves from the Everloc range (http://www.everloc.com.au/)
Happy with them so far.
May end up putting something permanent in eventually, but I quite like the…

Our kitchen will have approx 3.2sqm of splashback (including the area behind the overhead cabinets either side of the rangehood. Because that section requires a T piece and I…

Wow, that's great!!
Hey - those power points, do they have switches? Or are they 'always on'? (I need to…

Thanks for your reply boobalator.
Can you point me in the direction of where you're getting these measurements? I've been searching for something concrete, but can't find anything

Thanks kevin
You've highlighted something else to consider though.... The overheads won't be level with the tall cabinets if I move them up ***argh***
I think I'll…
