dievca schlepped over to the east side to help a friend shop for home build fixtures: toilets, bathtub, plumbing, kitchen appliances, drawer pulls, etc.  They went to the Ferguson Home showroom on E. 58th Street (previously Build.com), Miele and Bosch/Thermador/Gaggenau. 

Every time dievca wandered off on her own – she was drawn to the “custom” items.  The ones without prices listed.   For example, the most expensive option for a kitchen sink fixture in the whole space – a custom order from Brooklyn.

Yeah – dievca is dangerous to anyone’s pocketbook.

The good news is that her friend was able to ignore dievca’s instincts and created a solid mid-high tier of nice ADA-compliant choices. (ADA-compliant = suitable for or accessible by people with disabilities, in compliance with the accessibility standards specified by the Americans with Disabilities Act.) 

Kohler, Toto, Miele, Emtek, Hansgrohe, to name a few.  

Its a lot to build a house!
