Great question! We value a good night's sleep at Bloc Blinds and have developed the BlocOut Blind with that in mind. It provides an unmatched level of darkness in the home. We get a lot of feedback from customers about how much better sleep they are getting as a result both to reduced light in their own room but also due to their children sleeping in longer thanks to the light levels in their rooms too. It is a winner of multiple awards including the House Beautiful award for Best Eco Product and shortlisted this year for the Made for Mums awards under Best Nursery Product Category. Find out how to Get a better night's sleep here.

Get a joiner or chippy in to do it. You need glass with polished edges to take away the sharpness and a glass manufacturer will be able to do this. Toughened too.

I've tried several different types of floating shelves and never found them sufficiently robust. They always seem to slope down at the front and I haven't even tried to put anything on them as heavy as a book. It may be that I'm not paying enough for them, I have bought them from the various retailers such as B&Q and homebase. Instead of floating shelves, I now use clamp support brackets which hold the shelf firmly but are more discrete than under-shelf brackets.

Hi Hu, I think the biggest thing to consider when getting a new kitchen is getting the layout right. A lot of the large retail companies/smaller franchises work on selling and operating at certain margins. They also work with limited set sizes, so although you can walk in, likely get an appointment on that day and walk out with a price and a couple of pictures - you will be put through a variety of corporate sales techniques and are more than likely going to walk out with a kitchen that doesn't work in the long run, as well as a heavily inflated price tag which no doubt will alter as and when you shop around with the other outlets. I am somewhat biased in saying this but equally our business wouldn't exist without the demand - your best option is to seek independent design and layout advice. We work with our clients, your needs and come up with layouts that work for you/your family. Not a one size fits all put into different spaces. We are able to offer you a more comprehensive layout and design experience where you get high quality renders, access to all elevations and most importantly labelled floor plans WITH measurements - something that the big companies don't give out until you've put down a hefty deposit and are a few weeks away from install. We are also on hand all the time...before, during and after should you fancy a chat, need a question answered or you would like to ask us some advice relating to anything from accessories, lighting, splashbacks etc. When you focus on the design and get that bit right you find the rest falls into place, we can suggest suppliers for you to use; anything from off the shelf kitchens from the big companies, to online based companies that we work closely with and even bespoke cabinet makers. We offer quote sourcing for you too if it makes the process much less stressful, taking the hassle of having to worry about quantities and plan checking. But most importantly, before you even begin to start the design process we offer a complimentary hour long zoom/phone call so you can be sure that we are the right people for you and we can discuss ideas before you commit to anything - and speaking of commitment we offer anything from design by the hour or set packages - so we are fully flexible and it's more about you and providing you with what you need than us. Have a browse of our website, we are completely honest and upfront about everything - no hidden costs, and pricing can be found on our website. There's a whole wealth of information on there but if anyone can help, it's us. All the best with your kitchen planning, I won't waffle on anymore than I have but if you would like a cuppa and a chat let us know. Charlie @The Kitchen Lady UK www.thekitchenladyuk.co.uk
