Thanks for this info. It is very helpful. So you saved about $500 off the 10-piece set, which is a great deal. Though like you said, part of that may have been driven by purchasing all of the other items. Also, what was your experience with the "white glove" delivery? Do you think it was...

Could you clarify what you mean by this? Here is the 7 piece set I think you're describing above (2 upper cabinets, a 2-door base cabinet, and a 5-drawer base cabinet) for $2250... 7-Piece New Age Set Here is the 10-Piece set you have, priced at $2650... 10-Piece New Age Set Are you saying...

No pictures of the finished house??

Does anyone have pictures or video of the Pro series tool cabinets in use, with the drawers filled with tools? How has this tool cabinet functioned for tool storage? I see lots of beautiful pictures of these cabinets in people's garages, but very little of the cabinets loaded up and used. I...

You like to keep your garage clean...but you wouldn't be compelled to clean up motor oil, coolant, brake dust, rust, dirt, sawdust, salt, ect. that gets trapped between/under such flooring? I'm just not a proponent of simply ignoring the filth just because it gets hidden in the tiles. If...

You mop your floor every time a car has been driven in the rain??? Or when it gets dusty? Can't you just let the water that drips off your vehicle dry naturally? Or use a blower to blow out any dust?

So it basically comes down to the fact that it looks cool and water doesn't pool. Is this the same stuff you have? (I think this is a fellow GJ member) Is this the process you have to go through to remove the muck?

Re: Indianapolis 2-car BMW/Ford 2-car garage build! You might figure out what works best for you before blindly following Matt's preferred setups. I can't imagine spending over $3000 on Swisstrax flooring to cover up brand new, FREE epoxy flooring.

Can you explain the appeal of the Swisstrax flooring, beyond the look? I am a fairly clean/organized/**** person and this is the last flooring I would want in my garage. Matt @ Obsessed Garage seems to have popularized this stuff, due to its looks and ability to hide/conceal filth. But as a...

I've got one additional question for you regarding costs... If you were to have used brick one the entire exterior (full brick wrap), wow much extra would it have cost? Thanks.

Brickout - I've got to ask...who designed & engineered the floor joist and steel beam layout??? From what I can see in the pictures, there are at least nine steel posts and six steel beams in your basement! This design renders your basement nearly worthless for anything other than storage...

No one has mentioned this, but I found it extremely amusing... I've never seen a guy wrenching on a car in: - a white Tommy Hilfiger shirt ($75), - pair of Ralph Lauren Polo khaki shorts ($40), - black socks, - leather loafers, and - rubber gloves! I would have thought this was a fake, set...

Many have responded with comments similar to these… “What you were doing for your husband is very admirable, yeah he's probably gonna get mad at first but after some time in the garage he'll get over it.” “What you're doing for your hubby is awesome. I'm sure he'll like it.” “So she spent $2k...

Blacklead - I sent you a private message to address your VERY long-winded post.

It amazes me that some people on this board are unable to understand the concept of fiscal responsibility. The biggest single "catastrophe" here is poor financial planning & judgement, period. When do we stop giving everyone a pass for their poor decision-making and instead insist on a higher...
