"Seems like a faucet is a faucet... aren't most faucets about equal.. shouldn't I just buy the lowest priced ones?"
It is true that you don't always get your money's worth by paying more. On the other hand, just like cars, there are "cheap" cars and
quality cars. We like to recommend that you buy quality faucets from a reputable dealer and that you shop (compare)
prices on the same brand models.
