14 Tado automatic TRVs from Amazon, £120 for 3 and they are now £207.
Quite a big house (that clearly needs some redecorating!) with quite a few rooms that don't always need heating, so this investment should pay back fairly quickly.

Cheers. If it had been summer, I would have sprayed it (I may still do that next summer). Interested in the finish you managed to get on yours - do you have any pics?
With such a spenny kitchen I'd be so mad I didn't get an integrated microwaveMore paint ...

Remember when Tomorrow's World told us that we'd all have household servant robots by now, well....

Yeah, it was a real oversight tbh. Really wish we'd had it fitted.
I do! It's more a Dalek than a robot though!

Nah, it reminds me of our old house - I have some good memories of that place.
Different strokes for different folks. It's what makes life interesting.

If it's any consolation, we had an expensive Siemens integrated oven with microwave in our last house, and it was much less powerful and effective than the £120 Panasonic free standing one that we have in our new house, which is an absolute beast.
I would think twice about integrated microwaves in any future kitchen refit, although they do obviously look a lot better.
Can't help but feel they are going to age really badly as well.
My partners parents got a new kitchen fitted which is eerily similar to the one on the last page and I really don't like it. They also have an idiot of a dog that go nuts at reflections. To the point where he headbutts things and tries to bite them. Their entire kitchen area is just one giant reflection so he is always chasing reflections and staring intently at one spot. Utterly baffling as the dog didn't like reflections before the kitchen was put in and unsurprisingly he hasn't got any better!
As always, each to their own but I might prefer a more rustic kitchen than the shiny door uber modern style that is in vogue right now.

Better to have something which functions properly!It would just be a cheap(er) low power model, thats all. At the end of the day a 900W microwave will be the same whether its integrated or free standing.
