We have spent our last 3 weekends doing window shopping for furnitures. Went to a few places namely IMM, Furniture Mall @Beach road, Furniture Mall @Upper Thomson, @Kallang, King's Furniture Warehouse @Jalan peminpin, AMK & Bishan neighbourhood stores, Scanteak & Ikea.
On Neighbourhood Stores :
We were shown catalog and their prices are quite on-par. So we cant see and feel the actual product.
On Scanteck :
Really have some good buys during the weekend sales.
On Furniture Mall & Furniture Warehouse :
Under 1 roof comparision. Lots of varieties to choose as it is under 1 roof. Can see and feel the actual product and weekend sales

Cheap but not lasting (you pay what you get). Ability to customise your wardrobe but comes with a price.
Our final purchases :
TV console --> bought from Zen traditional
Dining Table & chairs --> Furniture Mall @Beach road
Shoes cabinet --> Furniture Mall @Beach road
King size bedframe --> Furniture Mall @Beach road
Book Shelf --> Furniture Mall @Beach road
Chest of drawers --> Ikea
Mirrors --> Ikea
Misc --> Ikea
** TV console from Zen **
** Rectangle with round corners (for child-proof) Solid Nyatoh Wood dining table set to be set in walnut colour **
** Solid Nyatoh wood shoe cabinet to be set in walnut colour **
** Solid Nyatoh Wood Book shelf **
We wanted a round marble-top dining table but gave in to rectangle with round corners (for child-proof) Solid Nyatoh Wood dining table set.
Reasons :
Lower maintainance compared to marble-top
Lower maintainance compared to marble-top
It is 50% cheaper than marble-top
Overall, its a fun but tiring experience.
