Review on ๐Ÿšฐ Efficient Peerless Single-Handle Bathroom Faucet - P136LF: Stylish Centerset Design by Shigg Bigbee

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Worth every penny (but not a penny more)

I work as a plumber in Colorado. Since the general contractor wanted to save money for the construction of two single-family houses, I bought five of these toilet fittings online and bet on an acceptable quality. Since Peerless is owned by Delta Faucet and uses the same internals, I was hoping that Delta brand reliability would carry over to the Peerless line. I would say I've had mixed results. One of the 10 toilet faucets I bought was leaking at the internal copper hot water line where it connects to the valve body at the factory. Of course, I only found out about this when the water tap was installed and I checked the fittings for leaks. That meant driving several miles to the nearest plumbing wholesaler, buying another toilet faucet, removing the failed Peerless assembly, and installing a new one. In other words, do the job twice for almost double the cost of materials (I reused the P-trap and water supply equipment). bottom line? The percentage of cost savings I was hoping for was canceled out by the need to replace the crane along with additional travel time and labor costs. As I am responsible for paying the return postage costs I doubt I will waste my time returning the faucet for a refund or store credit. I'll probably toss it in an old brass barrel and write off the experience as a lesson well learned - you get what you pay for.
