Hi Silver - Good luck with your reno. We are in the process of similar reno of our kitchen. We have removed the wall between the kitchen and dining room…

Beautiful kitchen Rellie. Love the white brick bond tiles, somehow with glass spashbacks everywhere, they still look great. Good on you for bucking the trend.

Thanks Uncle Arfur. You said you ordered the door 50mm narrower than the brick opening - so the door plus fins will fit in the opening. If that is the…

We want to replace 2 sliding doors in our place. It is solid brick house, with two doors of standard size. Some manufacturers have said installers usually order the doors…

All good points there CuttingEdge. I'm not sure if things are a bit different in Adelaide. The companies we have been to are probably not what you would call 'big'.…

Getting a bit off topic, but I think the reason most people go to Kitchen companies is because they specialise in kitchens. By using them you get a designer (that…

Good call Kiwi. Lasagne is the wife's dish, so I stay out of the way on that one. I'll have to sneak in while she is not watching and give…

Wow - well done. Under $5000 for marble bathroom? You have achieved very well. Staircase looks magic too.

Thanks again PHL - appears you are responding to all my queries - Thank you.
We have not had cabinet maker out yet, but will have to, did not think smaller…

Cheers PHL, I only heard about V-ZUG after agreeing to purchase the Siemens, though I have not yet found any suppliers in Adelaide. Thanks for your confidence in Siemens, hope…

We bought our Bosch about 18 months ago. We have old kitchen we are now renovating but the old benchtops (and we were not looking at replacing kitchen this quickly)…

Sounds great PHL, what oven did you buy? Please let us know how it goes once you have used it a few times.
We have ended up with an oven…

Cheers PHL, not a lot of stone it is kitchen reno only and benchtops will come to about 7 lineal metres. I supppose the kitchen is the largest amount…

Well done Michelle, looks like you have done a really good job.
What adhesive did you use tu glue to the benchtops? Also, what substrate did you use for the benchtops?
Please…

Thanks mark, we will take you experiences into account.
Yes Offshore, thin is in at the moment, but the stone is only about 6mm thick so needs to be mounted on…

We have had a few quotes for new kitchen and are looking at benchtop options.
The base level is Laminex benchtop which will cost approx $850.
The High level is manufactured stone…

Hi there,
Unlikely to be floorboards underneath the brick hearth, depending on the floorboards used in the rest of the room it could be very difficult or relatively easy to match…

Hi pankake,
I am not the best person to offer advise on this as all the ovens I have ever had have been old and/ or cheap.
We are renovating our kitchen,…

No replies? Well, I suppose that answers my question (in a way).

Ok, an update to some of the other posts I have put up regarding kitchen reno and oven/cooktop choices.
We were looking at Asko, Bosch and Smeg until a great offer…

Ok, to make it all worse (or better) one of the shops we have been to have now offered us a Siemens cooking package including pyrolytic oven and 75cm 5…

Thanks for the feedback. We are having difficulty deciding between the Bosch and the Asko, though we are now leaning toward the Bosch. We thinks getting the same oven and…

OMG Thanks Jo. I'm really grateful. I am more than happy to help you with any knowledge, and I will send through the latest plan. We have a few kitchen…

Thanks Dealatite, we will check out the Smeg range. I thought they looked good, but the salesperson showed us toward the Asko saying they are easier to clean (and…

Hi Delatite, thanks for posting. We too have Bosch dishwasher and it is fantastic. Had it 1 year and only 2 occasions that a dish came out still dirty (burnt…

Wow! I don't have anything against induction, I think it sounds really good, but my wife really likes gas, and that is what we will go with - and yes,…

Sorry for confusing the issue for you, but we are re-modelling our kitchen, and a must have is pyrolytic oven. Other brands do not charge $1000 more for it. Instead…

Wow - thanks Jodge, couldn't work out how to post pics directly to the post so I appreciate you putting them in. I agree if the pics show up, people…

We are renovating our kitchen and have been looking around at appliances.
We have settled it down to Bosch or Asko.
Asko are offering a package of OP8651 oven and T130 gas…

Any more recomendations? It is not easy in this space. We have looked at new homes and established homes in the area. some have given us ideas, but new homes…
