I saw the Chinese knockoff faucets and sure looks nice and well made but not
sure of the quality either. What was impressive were those faucets were
placed next to some high end European imports that cost well over $1,000
each and I couldn't tell the difference. Too bad that store didn't carry any
light fixtures. I had an expensive fixture imported from France (purchased
in USA) that needed parts too soon and the only way to get it was to call
the company in France - PITA since I don't speak French.
