My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    An 18/10 flatware set contains stainless steel made from 16%-18% chromium and 8%-10% nickel. These are the top quality industry standards for stainless steel used in making flatware. I really like the looks of this flatware but '2' for nickel content is a very low standard? Is there some explanation why this would not affect the quality?
