This shower set has a great warranty and is fairly well made. Theres more plastic in this set than in some of the fancier sets from more expensive manufacturers, but gives this a limited lifetime warranty, which means you can buy this set and expect a good deal of use out of it despite the prevalence of plastic.
Honestly, most bathroom tub fixtures have plastic in them at a variety of points. Its not so much a longevity issue as a matter of looks. This sets entire shower head, though it looks like metal, is made of plastic.
Where the set does include metal, its solid and substantial. The valve handle is heavy and the valve action is nicely damped. The tub is made of metal, though the inner parts include plastic connectors. The valve is sold brass with a (typical of all s) nylon cartridge.
The shower head is huge, with five spray settings and soft rubber spray heads that are easily cleaned and resist clogging well. Just rub across them with a finger to restore flow when they get clogged.
The dark finish is beautiful. A fine set of shower/tub fixtures, overall.
Attractive with lifetime warranty...
