With the 618 shopping season coming up, and since I happened to be replacing a bunch of things anyway, I figured I might as well share my running purchase list in case it helps someone else.

Already bought
Appliances
- Range hood: Fotile F3s-g — 2509.2
- Gas stove: Fotile tek22 — 1863.8
- Gas water heater: Vanward v9s Turbo — 2446.29
- Refrigerator: Haier Camellia 485 — 3741.77
Returned it after buying because I realized it doesn’t have a dual-evaporator setup. - Refrigerator replacement: Midea M60 520 — 4466
Planning to return and repurchase this one later once I can use the national subsidy eligibility. - Bathroom heater: Aupu s2-air — 832.15
Bought this last week, so it wasn’t part of my 618 shopping. - Ducted air conditioner: Toshiba 3P ducted unit
Bought earlier this year. - Switches and sockets: Schneider Zhenbo switches + Haocheng sockets
Bought these while following a group order a bit half-awake.
Non-appliance purchases
- Toilet: TOTO 887 — 3299
- Shower system: TOTO 11460 thermostatic shower — 1899
- Sofa: La-Z-Boy 183b / La-Z-Boy Uncle Sam
- TV cabinet: Xiao Ban Shiguang TV cabinet
- Windows: Yihe Doors and Windows
- Bathroom vanity: Oppein bathroom vanity
This is the main model being pushed by Oppein Bathroom on Douyin. It seems like it might be an OEM product, but it still hasn’t shipped, so I’m not sure whether I should cancel it. I really like Hegii Moon Berth, but the price is just too high.
Planning to buy
These are the items still on my list:
- Pre-filter: TRULIVA 8T, around the 400 yuan range
- Water purifier: Colofy Water Baby
- Water dispenser / boiler tap unit: Casarte GH1U1
- Air conditioner: Wahin Miracle Unit Gen 2 / Mitsubishi Electric Lingzhijie
- Ceiling light: Yeelight Xianyue
- Clothes drying rack: Mr. Bond m33
Washing machine: still completely stuck
This is the category that’s giving me a headache. I’ve looked at a few models and still haven’t decided:
- Panasonic White Moonlight 4.0
- Toshiba Jade Rabbit 2.0
- Haier Yunxi 4.0
Pros: direct-drive motor, pretty full-featured.
Con: there’s no white version right now. - Little Swan Little Black Plum 3.0
Belt-driven motor... basically my least preferred option. - Bosch
No truly zero-clearance built-in model.
That’s where my 618 list stands for now.
