  1. You do make me laugh.
    What the show needs is some new judges – hard to continue to suspend disbelief when a truly poor design is raved about.
    I mean I am all for a variety of opinions but some designs just do not work.
    Not watching the show this year, but your posts are fabulous

  2. Thank you Chris for wonderful educated info and guidance, I really appreciate it when there is so much choice and were expected to know how to bring it together. There is only one comment I would like to make, why are people using wall hung vanities? I had to in a tiny bathroom in my last reno to give the illusion of a bigger room, but in these huge block houses with big bathrooms they don’t need to make them look bigger, people with money who buy them will have a lot of stuff. how are families suppose to find more space other than putting up the flat pack kmart shelves. lol. I am seeing more and more of garages in suburbs filled up and the poor car sits outside in the weather.

  3. Well, at least Eliza and Liberty tried something new. So it didn’t work BUT they took a risk, and often risks DO pay off. I’d give them points for thinking outside the square… or The Block. Steph and Gian also tried something different, but that monolith needs an inset kicker. It will be awkward using the basin with absolutely no room for toes or the tips of shoes to get closer to the basin. AND… if I was spending millions on a home, I’d want custom joinery vanities. I dislike vanities that leave a small gap between the vanity and the wall. To me, this juts looks badly measured. Your comments, as always Chris, are gold. Bring back Ron Moss! Cheers, Penelope

  4. I hate Kit Kat tiles, they are too busy for my old eyes. Sorry I didn’t like Steph and Gian’s room at all. I liked Kristy and Brett’s but they need to soften the look of the window.

  5. I love your commentary each week!
    You’re so spot on, Leah and Ash’s tile clash is actually awful, it would stop me buying that house to be honest. I also don’t like the fact you have to walk through the bathroom to get to the laundry, nobody mentioned that!
    I feel a bit sorry for Eliza and Liberty, except for the moss (which can easily be removed) it was an inoffensive bathroom.

  6. Agree with your comments, however I did just watch Dan and Dani looking at the rooms and the mirror in Kyle & Leslie’s powder room does have storage behind it, so you may feel a little better about their room now 🙂

    1. Oh thank God! I’m glad that was revealed actually. I still feel a floating vanity would have been nicer. But at least we no longer have a toot-paper shortage to worry about 😉

  7. Kristy & Brett’s vanity – thankyou!!! I was sitting here talking to myself “ it looks shoved in the corner, it needs to come across!!” Couldn’t win for me when it agitated me so.
    Loved Steph and Gian’s. It’s something we haven’t seen before and that’s a rare thing on The Block now. With you on the juju hat though.

  8. Your critique is as always in alignment with mine, only so very funny. Thank you for putting it together so eloquently and hilariously.

  9. You certainly gave me a good laugh and I must agree with you with your points.
    Though I think Steph’s vanity a big big maybe just a bit shorter . Certainly different. Yes I agree about the KitKat tiles. I wish they didn’t use Beaumonts tiles, pretty generic. Boring.
