Those corner cupboard hinges never seem to last that long - it has something to do with the weight of the doors and the stress created. The newer ones might be better, but I am glad we won't have a corner cupboard at all :)
The codes sure have changed a lot and we are kind of lucky in that the person who built this house, was a housing developer, so didn't skimp that much on the basics. The kitchen now though is from the previous owners and it is a horror in the way it has been designed and is not overly functional for cooking - I'd have expected more from Puustelli - but it could be that the owners designed it themselves.
Sauna and basement is on the "one day" list for us...
I can't understand why the outer door could not have been simply attached to the other side.
Yep - I have had the same thoughts.
