RetireJapan

We've had one of those Zaboon washer/dryers for about 4 years now, made by Toshiba. We did have one part fail on us, but it wasn't too pricy too replace.

I highly recommend Nobilia Kitchens from Germany. They are not cheap [...] Thanks! I just browsed their site (https://www.nobilia-k.com/) to see how "not cheap" (no prices to be found), so I have to assume it's one of those "If you have to ask how much, you can't afford it" situ...

Anyone have any recommendations for buying kitchen cabinets / cupboards? (Don't need sink unit, as we have an island thingy already) Not a huge challenge to find (I have a Lixil catalog here, and will inevitably end up doing the IKEA maze with the wife), but I'm just curious if any of you folks have...

Given that Uber and Lyft aren't operating here, I'm curious to hear if any of you are using the Didi taxi app. It's a Chinese company backed by softbank, and their app seems quite good, and integrates with Paypay for payments. It's not available in my area ( https://didimobility.co.jp/service/user/ ...

Aw, that sucks. Apologies, not sure how I missed that.
