I adore both Interia and Lo and Co Interiors for hardware. They aren't cheap but I wouldn't say they are super expensive. If you use some of their statement hardware, you could just do them on lower cabinetry and leave the upper cabinetry as push-to-touch and keep it simple and a bit cheaper.

There should of been photos taken by property management before you entered into the tenancy. You should leave the property in the same condition that it was at the start of your tenancy. Ask the property manager to put in writing the comparison between start and finish of tenancy. If there are no repairs or extra cleaning required, (after completing the list as per your post) you should get your full bond returned to you. If the 3 metre light fitting was clean when you arrived, then it needs cleaning by you. Stay strong and document all conversions/emails, in case you have to go to the real estate institute for help.

Hey siriuskey, was just thinking about you and oklouise. We have finally moved in a week ago, and although the place still has a lot of finishing work to do, it functions so well. I love my ensuite which was just one of the things you both, and the other amazingly kind, smart and generous Houzzers, helped with so much. So thank you so very much. To your comment, I’d seen a few floor rugs at Bunnings but the range was very limited so hadn’t given it much thought. I’ll have to check out their website. As to style....something I don’t see everywhere, no fringe, blue or navy without any grey, not too fussy or too plain. You can see I’m a sad case in this respect :)

Your products look good but to be honest they look like you ripped them directly off alibaba. And I found a couple of the items your selling on there too at half the price. The delivery times (10 - 30 days) you have stated are the standard time frames as most things you get from china. The product range is more of a topsellers of the week from google or amazon. The website itself is very clean and easy to navigate, the discriptions on your items are lacking and use unneccessary reviews that sound generically fake with no measurements, weight. I do like how clean and uncluttered it looks.
