Review on Pfister S10 430Y Avalon 3 Handle Shower by Justin Luna

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very good set (for someone else).

I think I made a mistake buying these thinking I would save money by not going to the plumber to swap out all my plumbing and replace them with something modern. I called Pfister customer service and they said this is the only other type of replacement fairing that could be used in my existing roughing kit. This may or may not be true. I really spent a lot of time trying to do something different. Anyway, I hired a plumber. It's not a style that goes well with my house, my cabinets, my sink faucet, or my tiles. I'm trying to sell my house right now and the old ones were worse so I think it's an improvement in that sense. The switch knob has a set screw that is visible no matter how you attach the knob. You have 2 more handles, but they are mostly on the side. I think that's an unfortunate aspect. Since this thing spins to get water in the tub or shower, all you have to remember to do is point it at the tub. Otherwise, when he points to the shower, as you enter, splash cold water on your head or hand until it gets hot. Another thing that bothered me was that the Pfister spout, shower head and this trim set are all polished nickel but the 5 separate pieces are not the same color.

Pros
  • Elegant Design
Cons
  • Damaged
