Nex walkway damn narrow lor! The men's toilet on lvl 1 very dirty and very dark! I saw a living cockroach crawling round the toilet and many people complaining.

I don't know about the women's toilet, but I expect the same thing to happen because I don't see any cleaners there at all. I saw a few women coming out of the toilet covering their noses.

Nex has air-con but no exhaust. I was on the 4th floor (where Vitualand is) and smelled like paint.

I would prefer Jurong Point because Im just staying few blocks away, and has everything and anything there. I would give my vote to JP. The best thing about JP is they have 3 arcades - ZoneX,PrizeStage & Vitualand. Haha.

totally agree. Nex walkway is dammmm NARROW. Jurong Point walkyway is very WIDE.

Nex toilet need to turn snakes to reach

i just went to serangoon nex today. it's fucking packed.

also the escalators are placed very weirdly, i have to walk to the other end to go up on certain floors.

the top floor seems to be empty.

agree. their escalator are at the sides not the centre. Weird.

Fcukpap SG

haiz....marketing designs rather than practical built environment

elateddays SG

Nex is good in terms of Exterior Design. Interior Design is a new concept. Partly copied "Vivo City" because of the "Y-shaped" design. Overall Nex is messy.

Jurong Point design is normal , 2X rectangular shaped

FireIce SG

u just have to get used to it.
just like every other new mall.

go there every week or twice a week and soon u can sign up as a tour guide for the mall

I can proudly boast I know vivocity like the back of my hand.

Havent been to Nex, so I really dunch know.

problem with jurong point is a lot of banglas on sundays.... and the noise level on weekends... its terrible to the ears...

Looking at the car park lots available, i think Nex is a horrible place to shop at if you are driving. It has 3 times less parking lots than Jurong Point, although its retail space is almost the same as Jurong Point. Jurong Point sometimes weekend also got problems with parking....

Jurong Point retangular de.. cos of bus int for JP2.

JP1 is because of it being beside e original int back in 1990s.

Have not been to NEX either, but I definitely need not drive there. And if I need to, I'll park at one of the parking lots at the nearby housing estates instead.

their parking lots are miserably small.

ditzy SG

their parking lots are miserably small.

So the parking lots can only fit suzuki swifts, and peroduas? Can't fit standard toyota corollas?

This im not so sure. News reported that people who are driving need to make a 90 degree turn in the carpark to turn into another corner.

You seem to have something against this new shopping mall hor? Its been like open for only 2 weeks?

When vivocity first opened, also got so many teething problems and people didn't like it. Aircon too cold lar, place too big lar, confusing signages ar. Eventually people also accept it.

You can kpkb how fcuked up NEX is now all you want, eventually its only a matter of time.

kipnosky SG

No, nothing wrong with the size of individual parking lots. They are generous enough. The overall layout and design is dubious at best.

they'll improve eventually. but for escalator design, what is done it's done. cannot edit le, other than that, other things could be improved

FireIce SG

the escalator is like tt is to force u to walk thru the row of shops

im not sure if it's on purposes but they mix F&B and retail in each level
i was thinking tt the F&B shd be together in one section or level or own cluster
but it may be bcos of the bidding of the space
quite weird to be smelling food from next door while u are trying on clothes

Went to NEX last Sunday.

Went to a F&B shop in NEX called Qi Ji, is on Fairprice Xtra level. Sell Nasi Lemak de, The place so small, cant fit enough tables and chairs, alot of us who are hungry ended up wait outside the shop when the shop is full. And the Shops are also wrongly shaped and escalators wrongly placed.

FireIce SG

of all things why must eat at Qi Ji leh?

around there got alotta small stalls selling snacks and finger food
