I had few bad experiences with unreliable aircond service providers before. After few days of service, the aircond became hot and the handyman didn’t want to be responsible.
Fortunately after few unreliable handyman, I found 2 who are reliable and charge reasonable price.
Usually it takes them 4o minutes to service the indoor and outdoor aircond.

I bought IKEA PAX wardrobe at IKEA Damansara on 29th August 2021 and got it delivered on 31st August 2021. We had 50% discount for delivery thanks to Merdeka day. So we just paid RM35 for delivery.
We bought 2 sets of Ikea Pax Wardrobe with 150 cm (width) x 60 (depth) cm x 236 cm (height).
We had good experience with Ikea kitchen cabinet when we had issue with it, Ikea replaced our whole kitchen cabinet for free as it was still under guarantee.

Changeable Configuration
You can change the shelves or add new shelf or drawer easily.
Why We decided To Install Ourselves the Wardrobe?
Actually we didn’t at first. But due to MCO Covid-19, Ikea didn’t do any installation until further notice.
When we received our Ikea wardrobe boxes, the delivery guy said they can do installation at 10% of total price.
We agreed to the price but they could only do it the next day.
Because we couldn’t wait and were too excited. We decided to install it ourselves.
What Are Tools Required?
Screwdrivers – 2 sets
Most of the time you just need one. But to join 2 frames together easily you need to use 2 screwdrivers.
Ikea gave one female and one male screw to join those 2 frames. So one screwdriver hold one screw while other turn to tighten the other screw.

Cordless screwdriver cum cordless wood drill
Cordless screwdriver uses for closing gap of shelf supports plug and to screw L shape shelf to the frame.

Wood drill bit
You need 2 sizes, the smallest one for the door handle drill and bigger one to make a whole for screw that will be used to join 2 frames.

Water ruler
We used water ruler to ensure door handles were aligned horizontally.
Hammer
Hammer was used to nail the plywood at the back of the wardrobe.
F clamp – 2 sets
F clamp is used to join 2 frames together. IKEA instruction shows that we have to use 2 F clamps but I managed to do it with one F clamp because I only got one.

How Easy it is to do it yourself the Ikea Wardrobe Installation?
Relatively it was easy but it was tiring. It took us nearly 12 hours to complete the whole wardrobe.
The hard part was installing the handle of the door. We made mistakes on it but the mistakes wasn’t that obvious.
What mistakes did we make during the installation?
Wood scar on the door handle
If drill from inside the door create wood scar on the exterior of the door. So the right way was to drill from exterior so the wood scar was only visible from the inside.

The L shape shelf
ikea pax wardrobe – L shape shelf
We wrongly assembled the L shape shelf. We had to disassembled and carefully read the IKEA instructions.
Secondly, we didn’t properly screw the L shape shelf to the frame until there was gap between the shelf and the frame body. When this happened, the drawer was stuck, it couldn’t be opened. We had to unscrew and screw it again.
One person drill the screw at the bottom of L shape shelf while the other push it to the side to avoid it from making a gap with the frame.
What tips we can give for anyone wants to do themselves?
Shelf Supports Plug
Use your cordless screwdriver to screw the supports plug to ensure there is no gap between the supports plug and the wardrobe frame.
At first, we tried to screw it manually but there was always a gap and hard to properly put the shelf on top of the supports plug.

The Door Handle Wood Scar Due to Drilling
Use another unused wood at the other side of drilling section to avoid any wood scar as shown in the below videos.
Would we do it by ourselves again?
Yes. Even though it was tiring but we were excited and felt fulfilled when it was successfully assembled.

My Covid-19 Jabs and its side effect @ anal abscess
After my first Covid-19 jab of Sinovac. I noticed, I had 2 times more needs to defecate and my poo was liquid. After few days, I had normal hemorrhoids (I thought it was hemorrhoids).
I had the hemorrhoids for two weeks and I felt weird because no blood on my poo. Usually, you can see blood but I just felt really painful every time I had to defecate.
On my second Covid-19 jab, the pain is worsened and unbearable. I went to see doctor and get normal hemorrhoids medicine without the doctor inspecting my anus because I was embarrassed for the doctor the check my anus.
One week after, it became really painful and I couldn’t stand it anymore and went back to see the doctor and this time let her check my anus.
To the doctor surprise there was no hemorrhoids. The doctor suspected there was an abscess inside the rectum. She referred me to specialist.
Anal Abscess Specialist at Hospital Pantai Kuala Lumpur
I went to see specialist at Hospital Pantai Kuala Lumpur. He is a consultant general and colorectal surgeon. When he inspected my anus, confirmed there was no hemorrhoids and suspected there was abscess or fistula.
He asked me to do ultrasound to detect the exact location of the abscess or any fistula. I was admitted immediately around 12PM and the operation was done on 6PM.
The pre-operation, operation and post operation effect took from 430PM till 10PM. It took me nearly 5 hours before I was fully conscious.
The Anal Abscess
Before operation, I had to do rapid PCR to test whether I was Covid-19 positive or negative. It was short painful to do the the PCR test. It was like some small acid was put at behind my head.
From the ultrasound, the abscess was located around 1 to 2 o’clock. The specialist doctor just made a small cut to drain out the abscess.
I didn’t feel any pain after the operation because I was under strong pain killers. Hospital also provided strong pain killers in case the operated area became painful.
I was admitted for one day only. The next day, I was discharged which is good because I don’t want to stay long in the hospital.

My Room At Hospital Pantai Kuala Lumpur
I used my company’s insurance and I’m eligible for a normal single room. Fortunately there is no available single room so the hospital put me at Premier Single room with the price of normal single room.
The room was spacious and cozy came with a living room area.
I like the kindness and the professionalism of all Hospital Pantai KL doctors, nurses and security.
The total bill was around RM11k, thankfully it is covered by my company’s insurance.
