Building The House 81 - The Galley Kitchen and Laundry Room 

Hi, a great question. The appliances were purchased in Togo and France. The appliances by LG, namely the refrigerator, dishwasher and washing machine were purchase at RAMCO in Lomé. The appliances by Whirlpool were ordered online from www.whirlpool.fr/ . So, the microwave, oven, gas cooktop and wall mounted extractor were purchased and delivered to an address in Paris, then shipped to the construction site in Lomé. Due to challenges with my first electrical contractor, the property is not wired for both 110V and 220V appliances. Furthermore, the dimensions planned for all appliances, except the refrigerator, were at a maximum width of 60 cm. Appliances readily available in the USA are larger in width. 60 cm width appliances are readily available in Lomé. The purchases in France were driven by the lack of quality appliances observed during my search Lomé. Thank you for the question.

Thank you so much

Hi @KroneMoz, thank you very much. I came across Bosch in my research. They also make excellent appliances. I guess, Whirlpool sounds more anglophone 😂 Thank you for your continued support 🙏🏾

Hi @anisahouro-akpo3885, thank you and thanks for the compliment. Please come again. Cheers!

Hi @kronemoz, quite a bit to unpack but I love the questions. Water-resistant ply wood was used. That is, plywood coated with epoxy/mastic and stainless Kombi putty. Tarp has been placed in the cabinets underneath the sinks to protect against water in the event of unforseen circumstances. Besides that, no aluminium nor granite skirtings have been installed. But I get the idea of continuing the flow of skirting installed when flooring was done. Will look into that, thank you. Ha haaa...no, that is not the camera-shy first lady. The lady in the vid has been my principal collaborator in-country since late August last year. Yeah, I did not grow up with dogs. The wife would not allow the kids to have dogs, for fear of having too many "kids" to take care of. So, no dogs on the premises to beef up security. That is my little sister building and making good progress next door. @kronemoz, thank you for the questions🙏🏾

@AyiviTV Wow! I had never heard of Stainless kombi putty before, I will take a serious look into it when the kitchen cabinet phase arrives. Haha the first lady and I are camera shy experts but I'll look to change that in the future. Very valid point about dogs. Indeed, you need to invest a lot of time on them. Well done to your sister, she made extraterrestrial progress. In my opinion nothing beats having direct family as your neighbors, im not talking about cousins or uncles/aunties those are another story hahaha.
