The dining table started to shake from corner to corner recently. Meimei and I have been doing brief research online to hunt for a new table. There is a new tech called Sintered stone so we were at Comfort Design to get a feel of the table top.
Unfortunately the sintered top didn't feel good at all. It was rough and feels like dirt and whatnot will get stuck in the uneven surface.
We did, however, chance on what was once our ideal choice for a dining table top. Tuck in a corner was a black table top with a tray of tile-like samples. I knew what it was the moment I saw it and immediately went over to check it out. They were offering customised Siletone quartz table for sale with a wide choice of colours and 2 type of legs, wood or steel.
When we first moved to 405, we asked our interior designer if he could liaise with Caesarstone supplier to see if we can find someone who sells it as a table top. We never got a reply and it was not to be. We knew it was going to be expensive judging by the per square foot price on our kitchen top and we were at the top end of our budget already.
Well so it was just meant to be that we found this now. It's going to cost a bomb ... we were quoted $2,700 for an older colour and $3,300 for the more premium colours. Plus is that we can customise the size we want 1.8m by 85cm.
We didn't do an impulse buy ... well largely due to the extreme price. The sintered tables are going for like $600-$900 and our old table cost $1,280. So the Siletone table will be a huge investment. But hey, we did spend $3,600 on a 3 seater sofa so what's another premium ticket furniture ;-)
