Hi,

Jus got my 2 glass basins with taps and sink frm PJ.
Other than beri good price, their service very good and delivery beri prompt too.

ESH may hav cheaper things but we think that their quality not as good as PJ products.
So other then price do look out for quality too...
 
Hi,

I just took delivery of my stuff too from PJ. Price wise quite reasonable and quality in general not too bad. Just take a note though.... I was quite upset initially when I found my "square" basin to be curved on one side. Luckily, the shop agreed to swap it for a new one.

My mistake was to do only an item count as the guy was very kan cheong to leave. Guess must remember to check item by item (must open up everything) before the delivery people leave.

For those who need to find ESH and PJ, they are just next to the Jalan Besar Food Centre.

I cannot comment about ESH's product quality but design wise, PJ's products look better

I went both to checkout & ESH is actually 1/2 bus stop away rite? It was empty although neighbour stores are all bz...wonder why? The store uncles & lady nv bother attending to us, pretty sure nv went wrong plc.

And find PJ stock range & ppl nicer

Juz cam back from my shopping at econflo warehouse sales, they have it for 3 days only for their post stock take, till Sun 9-6pm. Not sure if its cheapest, but they say it's made in italy & i find the design nice & modern. U can check out their website www.econflo.com. Most of their items have half price or less.

I bought high spout mixer, bath shower mixer, basin mixer & basin, costing 130 each except basin 150.

Below is the pic, the square mixer is the last piece in case u like it.

If u want to drop by & take a look, their address : 19 Kakit Bukit Industrial Terrace. Go to level 2.

Yes they do..in fact i find that they have a lot of varieties, but some may be higher price than the other shop along JB. But if u buy alot i'm sure they will give u bulk discount. The last time I talked to the younger bro Mr Sia (wear spec), very friendly & price offer is lower than what is displayed even though I didn't get anything from them.
 
Hi, i went to PJ and asia excel mktg over the weekend and compared prices. Ray from asia excel mktg is able to offer lower prices with flexibility and excellent service. He wasn't able to offer the taps we wanted (PJ design) but offered to buy it for us at no extra cost!

Ju, I second Ray from Asia excel.. Jus called and tell him the best price you have seen so far and he should be able to match or lower. He has direct contacts of electrical goods too. Thumbs up for the service!

Here is the contact of Ray from Asia Excel Marketing. 91052286/97621938. I have just bought my fav franke sink from him yesterday at the lowest price compared so far. His service is wonderful.
The location is at Jurong east st 22 IMM building #03-10B. Shop tel number: 66650107. Think he is the boss..
 
I can give you teh website for franke sink. www.franke.com

Very high quality sink. For quotation, it will be best to ask him directly. I bot the GEX 630C. One big one small basin. Anti condensation so protect our cupboards from moist. You can compare prices with diff retailer and tell Ray the lowest price you found. He should be able to match or lower.
 
I wld like to say THANK YOU to peach cooler. went down to Poh Joo today and got all these at a good deal:

- tempered glass bowl with stand + tap (slightly above $400) -----> very good deal!
- kitchen sink + tap ($235)
- mirror ($70)

(prices are quoted without installation charges)

I'm very happy with what the tempered glass bowl coz i've been looking for one for a long time but at sim siang choon, the bowl itself costs about $400- $500!

Poh Joo is quite a good place. the staff are patient. VERY PATIENT. we spent about 45 mins there, getting quotations. then we said we wld like to check out the stretch of jalan besar first. they didn't turn hostile at all. in fact, they smiled and said it was no problem at all. after searching for an hour, we decided to go back to poh joo and the staff were still equally friendly. Comprehensive range of bathroom and kitchen accessories too.
 
Genesisgalaxy,

you are right. The sales girl name is fengping, quite slim and tall one. I even told her I wanted to check out Eng soon huat before buying and asked for directions. She even tell me how to get there! In the end eng soon huat has already closed so I bought from her! Places who sell cheapest bathroom acess and gave best service will be Poh Joo and Asia Excel. Heard from Ray they were distant relatives. NO wonder Ray can help to get things from poh joo without extra cost.

Miralyn,
I asked Genova from IMM, they quote $240 best price. I asked a few other shops who sell same sink, quoted $250 and no discount. I got it at a lower price from Ray, It is best that you talk to him regarding the price. Prices fluctuates loh..
 
Actually, the kitchen sink at Eng Soon Huat was $20 cheaper than Poh Joo. However, they had a limited array of toilet accessories / sinks. Therefore, HB & I decided to get everything from Poh Joo and hopefully, we wld get a discount. Well, I only recalled that for the tap that we'd chosen, it was originally $100 (it's a vertical well-like pump) but the guy at PJ said he wld give it to us at $70.

Hi all,

I've read so much how you all recommend Asia Excel, PJ or ESH. Can someone tell me those sinks and taps that you all are talking about, are they those high class looking one? Do they have those normal basins, sinks and taps?

Cos me and hubby are troubling where to buy from cos after walking so many shops, now confused already. We are looking for taps, sinks, basin and tilet accessories. But we do not need those high class or hotel look alikes, just those normal yet good quality will do. Any suggestions?

Thank you.

Hi Mandy,

U can go to this place at 50 Kallang Pudding Road Golden Wheel Industrial Bldg, there is 2 office, one in 4 level & other in 7 floor. Different shop. Selling basin, taps, heater etc all under 1 roof. They usually sell to contractors & IDs. U can just walk in. I bought a shower head from the shop at 7th flr. Though their pricing quite cheap. They close on thursday.
 
Hi handydog,

how do we ensure we're getting good quality basin, taps, WC, etc. Heard some are cheap but u will actually worry if it can last u for years. My friend said Sim Siang Choon's products are ex ....i.e pay peanuts get peanuts. She bought 2 different sets of taps, one from Sim Siang Choon and the other one from one of the shop along Balestier or something...Sim Siang Choon one still as good as new but the other one.....
 
There's no guarantee even if u buy the most expensive stuff. The cheaper ones are usually from China & Taiwan. But doesn't mean they wouldnt last. Only an expert can tell u if the tap is good or not. For me, I don mind buying a cheaper stuff from China or Taiwan for taps & accessories, i can change them when out of style. The only thing I would pay more is the WC & basin tt are fixed stuff, getting the expert from reputable shop to give me assurance of the quality. But most of all whether the items will last depends on how u use & maintain them, even the best quality will get worn out if u don take care of it.

Hi Rachel,

Can i check if Ray is the only one whom can give a better price? I went to Asia excel today and brenden serve me today. Whaz the diff if I approach Ray?
 
That I am not sure lei.. Maybe to a certain extent cos when you mention my name, the boss might think that we know each other hence unable to charge high cos we will discuss mah..I am not related to the boss so he should charge us the same price la..
 
Just went to ESH today and realised that they are having a promotion on toilet accessories, $70 for a 7 piece set including a mirror. Would like to find out from previous ESH buyers, is this promotion on going all the while?

I must say ESH items are really cheap but any comments on their quality?

We are looking into buying a sink and all the toilet accessories this wkend and we need help and some advise....

Can anyone advise where can we get the best bargain

Thanks alot!!!
 
Hi Rachael,

May I ask how much did you pay for your Franke sink? I rang Ray up and he quoted me $320 for the Geneva series...
 
I am looking for a sink too, budget probably in the 300 range. It seems from this thread it is possible to get a Franke sink for that price.

Where is a good place to view a large range of Franke sinks?
 
hi ckclass... i don't know about Franke sinks... but i got mine (Teka) round stainless steel and tap for $262 (bundle price)... if you interested can try... i chose the single round one that can be flushed into the solid surface...
 
Hi all,
New in this thread. Bery confused now coz i just bought a resale 4 rm flat. Wanted just to renovate the toilets but find that the contractors are all charging at least 6K for 2 toilets(inclusive of hacking). Just wondering that all of u here who had purchased the toilet bowls, basins, accessories in Poh Joo n other shops...., do these shops provide installation or u need to get another contractor to install for u?
 
Hi,

I'm in the midst of renovating my resale flat. Can I ask whether the prices the staff quote me at Poh Joo are already the best pxs or can I bargain?

thanks!
 
Hello anyone been to "LOOKZ" along Balestier Road, just a few shops away from the Loy Kee Chicken Rice? The shop had quite a wide range of toilet accessories, sink etc..Any comments on the price?
 
Hi all, went ot "LOOKZ" along Balestier the other day. They have got nice design, wide range, high quality & staff there are very helpful & polite. price also very reasonable. can try. or anyone has better intro?
 
Hihi!

Just wanted to share our (my fiancé and myself) experience at shopping for bathrooms accessories. Guess for all those folks out there who’ve gone through this, it can be quite a roller-coaster ride, as we found out ourselves.

We went scouting at both Jalan Besar and Balestier. Although both areas had a number of shops, we found that Balestier had a greater concentration of lighting shops, and Jalan Besar was THE place for bathroom stuff. We also checked out the forums at Singaporebrides.com.sg, and obtained a few names to start with.

We visited places like Poh Joo, Hon Kheng, Eng Soon Huat, Sim Siang Choon, and a bunch of other shops whose names we can’t recall. Quite apart from the constant shadowing by sales staff (hair-raising at times), the variety on display and the different measurements were quite mind-boggling. The cost of those fittings that we liked was also much higher than we expected. We went back convinced that we either had to re-think the budget for the fittings, or compromise on the look, or both!

On our second trip to Jalan Besar, we stumbled across the Royal Fanco shop (131, Jalan Besar). We had stopped for a drink at this dedicated soya bean store called Beancurd City, and – lo and behold! – Royal Fanco was next to it. The store was small, not very brightly lit, not air-conditioned, but it was a goldmine for us.

The proprietor there is a guy called Henry. One of the first things we noticed about him was his service. He was very personable, very patient with us, and answered all our questions on fittings and accessories. Absolutely no pressure on us to purchase his products. Whenever we wanted to see some fitting, he would dive into his stock and show us his latest models. He also shared with us his product catalogues when we said we wanted to see a selection.

The other thing we noticed about him were his prices, which were markedly lower than in the other shops we saw. A shower mixer that we saw going for $112 elsewhere was priced at $68! Same brand, same design, but 40% cheaper.

We didn’t purchase anything from him on our first meeting, but he was still very friendly. We returned to Royal Fanco a couple of weekends later, after checking out prices at other shops. This place still offered the most affordable fittings that we liked. We went through the various products that he had, and this was where we were most impressed with him. For all those products that he did not carry, he would tell us without hesitation where to get them. This included his competitors that sold the same fittings and accessories!

We were so impressed by his service and pricing that we eventually obtained most of the fixtures and accessories from him. We also got one or two items from other shops, but simply because he didn’t carry them.

Overall, we would recommend anyone looking for affordable bathroom stuff to at least drop by Royal Fanco if you’re in the area, and have a word with Henry. We don’t know if the prices we got from him were the lowest, but it was certainly cheaper than what the other shops we went to were offering. Guess you’ll have to weigh the cost of free weekends against a few extra bucks if you want to hunt for something even cheaper.

Sorry for the lengthy write-up, but we were really impressed with the shop.
 
yes i agree tat the owner of royal fanco is a very friendly chap....no obligation to buy or anything...he will try to introduce you his latest stocks and share his opinion with you....

from the outside u may not notice his shop cos it is not brightly lit....and the interior looks quite run down....but can drop in to take a look if u happen to be in the area...
