Review on Matte Black Shower Faucet Set With Mixer And Valve - Sumerain Shower Fixtures For Your Bathroom by Arturo Reyes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not for a high end bathroom, but perfect for my needs.

The faucet and shower head were exactly what I was looking for to use in my new, fiberglas, shower stall. The simple design was perfect. I had the faucet and shower head professionally installed by a local plumber.Though all the photos show the handle ended up pointing downward the plumber installed it pointing up. However, it works just fine. The nice thing about its position is that you can see the hot/cold, red/blue icons on the handle clearly. I'm thinking about orienting the handle to the 3 o'clock position. That way you can see the hot /cold, red/blue icons upon entering the shower. Still debating that in my mind.Though my water pressure is not the greatest, the shower head works well, with water pouring out of all the holes. But, it does drip for a several minutes after being turned off. I guess it's because of the large head holds a good deal of water, especially since it's at a tilt. I would have loved the head to have been centered over the stall, pointing straight down. But, that would've involved having the plumber customize a pipe for it. So, it's okay how it is for now.I should've know that some of the parts were plastic [the escutcheon for the faucet handle and the head], but the important workings of the faucet appear to be brass/metal. Given that the shower stall will not be used very often [it's in my guest cabin], I expect this to last quite some time. Only time will tell.

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • May not be suitable for individuals with limited mobility or range of motion due to difficulty adjusting the mixer handle
