I was wondering if anyone can recommend a good place to buy wash basins, baths etc. I have been to Mitra 10, but I was wondering if there are other places worth checking out that are better or cheaper.

Spicy,
You could try

They have several floors of bathroom supplies from Chinese and locally made through to European quality (Grohe supplier). Well worth a look and they often have good sales. Staff are helpful too.
Mitra 10 is more expensive than most places. We brought all of our stuff from my wifes cousins shop in Cunggu, his place is quite popular with both the local and foreign builders in the area. When ever I was in there there seemed to be a line of people waiting to be served. They how ever don't carry a lot of stock as far as baths and wash basins are concerned, if you know the make and model though they will be able to order it in for you and have it delivered anywhere on the island. I'll get you his phone number when my wife decides to pick up her phone. His wife (good english) should be able to get you a quote over the phone.
Also if you're buying Toto the prices should be the same everywhere.

Thanks for the replies. It's a big help.
I love this on the Galleria website:
http://www.galleria.co.idBathroom is not built merely for sanitary purposes. Rather, it can also be a place where you relieve all the stress you’ve acquired from a hard day’s work. Research has shown that aside from the bedroom, people spend the most time in their house in the bathroom. In fact, some people are known to find their best inspirations in the bathroom.

.......well, here's wishing you find pleny of inspiration in your bathroom!!![]()
whoops.. plenty...
Hi SpicyAyam,
Surya Pertiwi is one of Indonesia's largest distributors for sanitary ware if not the largest.
They have a great online catalogue at Surya Pertiwi (.co.id).
They have an agent in Denpasar.

Make sure you tell them you want contractor pricing - there's a significant difference between such and retail.
All the best..

There is also the big builders suppliers (like Mitral 10) in Gianyar - sry can't think of the name but it's on the main road from Ubud to the east.
In all of them you should go for (or if you have the time, wait for) special offers - they are usually %50 cheaper. Quality isn't the same though, some of the toilets break if you look at them hard - maybe that's the sourse of the "daily inspiration" what to do with the 2 cm mess all over the floor after the toilet bowl shatters after the big job of the day - open the door and it spreads or clean it up with hands.....![]()
