    Its happening iteratively – the FB page as well as a website for just the Wardrobes is in the works….watch this space 🙂
    The most widely available switches are from Anchor (now bought over by Panasonic), they are easily replaceable hence recommended. In terms of quality however Woods are a shade better.

    Many Congrats Nandita…n wish u all the very best:) Must say that your blogs are awesome and v helpful. I have a small doubt, regarding pine plywood. In one of your earlier post you said that we should not use pine plywood until our budget is really tight, but can it be used for wall panelling if not than what will you recommend. Also is Pine plywood same as commercial plywood and is pine plywood recommended for making furniture as t.v. units and bed or not…Thanks a lot Neha

    Thanks Neha – I don't recommend Pinewood for making anything. Pinewood that I have come across in Bangalore is softer than regular commercial board/ ply (ISI marked) and gives issues in the long run

    Hi Nandita,
    I am going to start my home interior, come across your blog …really good and helpful. Can you suggest me a place where I can get bed and sofas at reasonable price in Bangalore. And any idea about Elica's hob and hood , Is it good?

    The IS grade/ Specification (IS 303/ 701/ 1659 etc.) will definitely be mentioned on the ply/ board – if that is mentioned then you know what to buy.
    The only way to avoid a fake is to buy from a trusted source

    For sofas & beds you have some standard places in Bangalore – try Simply Sofas, Stanley, Tangent, Homestop, Lifestyle, Fab Furnish, Evok, Urban Ladder, @Home etc.
    Also know that Bangalore prices are at least 20% higher than anywhere else in India hence "reasonable" may be difficult. 🙂
    Elica is good as a product but their after sales is a ??
