Discussion about
We are gut reno our 3 bathrooms (2 with showers and 1 with tub). We have been advised to stick to Kohler products for their quality and price point. Any other brands we should be looking at? Are there any "better" brands that might be even more reliable, even if its a little more expensive? We are not looking to break the bank here, as the reno is already getting very expensive. Also, I am not too concerned about name dropping for the sake of marketing as we are planning to stay awhile. Thanks

Between 2 residences, I've got a mix of Kohler and Grohe fixtures. I got the Grohe for the modern styling, which I didn't think Kohler did as well. Both have been in 10+ years, and they're just fine. (don't start about the one Blanco kitchen fixture, with which I am not happy.)

Go to Simon's and look. Steven in the plumbing section helped me numerous times as I gut reno'd my bath and kitchen. You will be able to see all fixtures, accessories (towel rods etc) and they are open on Saturdays. I found his advice to be helpful when discussing what was or was not worth the extra $

Thanks very much; I will definitely check Simon's out, especially since its open on the weekend. Amazing how few accommodate us who work for a living.
