The shower basket is suitable for shower cubicles

The basket is just right for the shower cubicle. It doesn't stick out from the corner where you can hit it. It is also very durable and high quality. For tiling, you need a carbide-tipped drill that is used specifically for drilling holes in tiles.

Pros
  • Only positives
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something

. years and I think Gatco is one of the best in quality. BUT

I've bought various brands over the years and I think Gatco is one of the best in terms of quality. BUT how much would it cost them to add a simple piece of paper stating what size tile drill bit to use? Or maybe a temple to improve the installation process? Luckily I still had a tile drill from the last install (don't use a regular drill if you don't want to risk cracking the tiles).

Pros
  • is a good thing
Cons
  • I don't remember

Disappointed with the shower accessories

Good quality basket and I would have given it more stars if it wasn't for the plumbing hardware issue. The screws provided for installation have caps to put on the screw to cover the ugly head after the screw is installed. Mine arrived with the covers already installed on the screw heads and they couldn't be separated. I had to look for other screws that look unsightly after assembly. Tell the idiot who assembles the hardware kit not to cap the screws

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Low maintainability

Great Product: Bathroom Accessory

Gatco Corner Basket 8" is smaller so check your measurements before purchasing. Outstanding quality and workmanship. The basket fits perfectly in the corner of your shower. Four fastening screws with screw caps (corresponding to the surface of the basket) are included in the scope of delivery. Instructions are not included or required as installation is self-explanatory. Of course you will need a tile drill to drill four holes in the tiles so you can insert the plastic plugs provided into the…

made from the wrong material

This is an edit of my comments below. Revain was wonderful and quick in answering my questions below and offering a solution to my problem. They have excellent customer service and even under the circumstances I would definitely use Revain again. I ordered an 8 1/2" Gatco shower basket in satin nickel. The description says it's made of brass and plated with satin nickel. The order arrived, but it's brushed nickel stainless steel. That's a problem with online -Orders. I don't have time to…

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Obsolete model

it looks good and is well made (should be for $35).

Either I'm unlucky or Gatco has a manufacturing issue with this product. I ordered the first one, it looks good and is well made (should be $35) but had one major flaw - it wasn't built at a 90 degree angle so it doesn't fit the corner properly. So I sent it back and ordered a replacement. which arrived today and unfortunately has the same problem! It looked like the package had already been opened once so nobody at Revain cares why these things are being returned which is doubly frustrating…

Pros
  • Fair performance
Cons
  • Other Other
