Review on πŸšͺ Ravinte 30 Pack Brushed Nickel Cabinet Pulls: Stylish, Functional Kitchen & Dresser Drawer Knobs and Handles by Duane Hayes

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not a true matte/satin finish. SPLASHED!

When I received my shipment of Ravinte hardware I was very excited as I spent hours determining the style, finish and number of knobs and pulls I needed for each cabinet in my would need at home. all house! I ended up buying 70 pins (two different lengths) and 25 pins from Ravinte! However, my excitement soon turned to disappointment when I discovered that the very first puff I took out of the box had a SCRATCH on the surface, exposing the shiny metal underneath. I figured I could just rub it off or maybe sand down the "brushed/brushed nickel" (as they advertise it) to bring the finish back to its original "brushed" look. Then my disappointment turned to anger to discover that this product DOES NOT HAVE A REAL MACHINE or even SATIN FINISH, but is just a sprayed on coat of paint (right?) that is easily removed with the slightest scratch on the nail! The 3 photos show (1) the original scratch, (2) the finish on the back during my attempt to repair it with some additional rubbing/scratching, (3) and the difference between the supposed "matte/satin finish" that I ordered and the finish that I (and you, if you're stupid enough to buy from Ravinta) will get with every use or daily wear of these pens! I sent Ravinta a message over 2 weeks ago and have not received any response from them! DO NOT BUY this item! It's not just "EXPENSIVE", it's CHEAP! While I haven't had any issues with my pens (so far), I can't trust their products. I am returning ALL of these items and will never buy from Ravinte again!

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
