I would like others opinions here.
This is my situation:
Four years ago, we completely remodeled our bathroom replacing all of the plumbing fixtures walls, etc.. I have always been a stickler for buying quality products and although I don't buy the most expensive products, I usually spend enough to believe that I'm buying quality.
So far, my 2 year old granddaughter kicked a hole through the paper thin side of our bath tub. All of the chrome plumbing fixtures are corroding and the stopper no longer functions. We've had to replace the toilet seat and the screws had rusted so badly I could not get the plastic nuts off without chiseling them off. The bathroom sink has several cracks in it. The stopper in this sink broke as well, and while replacing that, I noticed excessive corrosion on what I thought were brass fittings. Oh, did I mention the brand new shower fan we installed quit working. Basically everything we purchased four years ago has to be replaced. This is ridiculous. I thought, at minimum, that I could get 10 years out of these appliances and fixtures.
Everything you buy now is absolute junk.
So, what's the next step ??? How do you replace these items so they last ???
