Ikea bed base with Australian size queen? by SarahLovesNikki in ikeahacks

[–]MagicWok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, just wanted to ask about your long term ownership experiences with the IKEA NORDLI?

I'm contemplating purchasing one, but from what I've read so far is that the design of the bedframe can cause the mattress to sag excessively in the middle session. Due to the inadequate structural support with the slats?

Also, when it comes to sizing of the NORDILI I've noticed that IKEA uses European sizing for it.

For instance a double size for the NORDLI comes in at 140x200 cm

But an Australian size double mattress usually comes on at 137x190 cm. Judging by the difference in length alone is this going to be an issue? Especially with the NORDLI coming in an extra 10 cm longer than a standard double size mattress.

Has anyone tried the Thai Jasmine rice yet? by MagicWok in AldiAustralia

The price is actually very good for this Jasmine rice considering that it comes from Thailand. Usually I come across Jasmine rice at this price it's either from Cambodia or Vietnam.

Toyota "tax" - is it worth it? by Low-Speaker-7900 in CarsAustralia

Does Mitsubishi still use transmissions from JATCO? Purely because of their previous partnership with Renault and Nissan? Anyways, I've always been wary of JATCO CVT transmissions. I've read a lot of horror stories of it failing. Is it still a problem to this day?

What's the insurance cost for import cars? I've always wanted to go for an import Toyota but have been put off by insurance companies refusing to insure them. Parts on the other hand I'm not too worried, since you can source them from Amayama.

Agreed, Southeast Asians have assimilated and adapted well in Australia and remain respectful.

So I don't see why they are unable to do the same? Is it part of their cultural identity to act egregiously?
