Brizo and Restoration Hardware Faucets?
Comments (0)I have been having so much trouble posting this. I put it at the end of another post but really need it as a seperate one. As you can tell I have so many questions and I just can't believe all the people with great ideas and experience so here's another question. I was so excited when I saw someone post that they had a Brizo hand held shower head in their bath! I just was in a store today and selected Brizo polished Nickel for the double shower. So it will be a handheld (3 water flow positions) on the pole with a thermostatic control that I will be using as an everyday shower. The other end of the shower will be the Brizo 3 position Raincan Showerhead (which has full spray, rain and massage features)and another thermostatic control for my husband. We currently have old Delta faucets in this shower. Since the tile is being redone it seems that this shouldn't be difficult to put in for a plumber. Does anyone have any experience with these showerheads? How is the multifunction on both these showheads? I would hate to buy them and then end up hating them. It's hard when you can't try them out. Now the other faucets in the bathroom (2 vanity faucets and 1 Roman Tub Faucet with a handheld) will probably be Restoration Hardware Compaign also in polished nickel. I just fell in love with them and can't find anything else in that style. I saw on this site that they are made by Newport Brass which is a good company but I don't get the impression that if there was a problem it would be easy to get parts or help. Their website is terribly for getting specific information and Restoration Hardware is not too good either. The problem is that the Roman Tub faucets from Restoration Hardware do not come with a handheld so I think I have to order it from Newport Brass and then hope it will be compatible. I need to call them tomorrow. I also, read on this site that plumbers don't like installing these so that scares me a little. Anybody with any experience with any of this? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------...See MoreExperience w/ Rest. Hardware bath fixtures
Comments (7)About 6 years ago we put in lighting from RH and all the accessories (containers, toothbrush holder etc..) and they are great! Found hardware from HD that looked a lot like it but was cheaper. As for fixtures, I don'th ave experience with that but I am planning on maybe getting somethis time around for my newest remodel project....See MoreExperience with Restoration Hardware Sofa QUALITY
Comments (23)Babs711, HOW did you do that!!?? I have been to at least 20 stores that carry Broyhill. I have typed every thing I can think of relating to those sofa's in a google search box. NOW...I can't remember IF I've seen either of those in a store. Although, I do "think" we almost ordered a Broyhill from a store. We got downright serious with several $1500 sofas, BUT, when we chose the material, it'd wind up being something like a grade 100 (and the sofa in the store for $1500 would be a grade 2). We'de hear "sure, we can order that $1500 sofa in that material, it'll be $2800. Then, at $2800...we would then NOT be able to live with the depth, or the knifeback cushions. OR, our "hole in the wall" that we need to fill is 101.5". We have inched our way down to 96" being acceptable. And, "whats another inch"? Well, ya just gotta draw the line somewhere...I think?? LOL. I cannot believe that I don't remember seeing that Cora and that Tarleton. Maybe I did and they were just both too deep? Or too high after the material choice? OR, they didn't offer the material we wanted? OR??? BUT, you just stuck two sofas right there that SURE GOT MY ATTENTION, and the Price sure SEEMS spot on for my budget. Go figure...Find something better a day after I put in my order...never fails. BTW: Here is what I Finally pulled the trigger on. 1) 97" English Arm Sofa (fits in a 101" long hole in a wall) 2) 38" deep. (can't handle 42" or deeper because our calves hit the edge and feet don't touch the ground..I just hate that). 40" seemed to be the maximum depth I could deal with. 3) Sides of the sofa, at the bottom, have a "swoop" contour from front to back. (just looks better than a straight line) 4) Three wooden legs up front with casters (I dunno, I just like that look) 5) Three butt cushions, NO down fill (they assure me these will not get bulgy, settle out, or get that broken down, worn out look) 6) TIGHTBACK (hate knifeback pillows because they resemble "throw" pillows or bed pillows. Would have been fine with normal edged cushions, but, IF I could have exactly what I wanted, It'd be "tightback". I like that look and like the way it won't deform or look "used") 7) Army Duck Canvas/Cotton Fabric (very durable, almost indestructable based on experience, and has the linen "look" and "texture" we wanted. Difficult to find as an option for most manufacturers) 8) Charcoal Gray Color (matches and accents the rest of room, and...I won't feel like I have to shower, change clothes, and throw a cover on it if I want to sit down) 9) $1750.00 (For EXACTLY what I want on EVERY count...I can live with that) 10) While I cannot comment on "down the road" customer service? I can say for sure: Every call, I wound up talking to ONE person. This guy is "probably" the person that actually builds this, or at the least is very "hands on" during the process. His answers to my questions were a very friendly and polite...."Yes, we do that" or "Yes, we CAN do that" or "Sure, I have no problem doing that". "No, we've never made a chair and a half to match that sofa exactly, but, I've always wanted to...just never had anybody wanting one....I'll be glad to make you one, no problem." If anybody is interested it's www.thecomfortablesofa.com in North Carolina. I may regret this, but, as of right now...I'm...GIDDY!!! LOL...See MoreRestoration Hardware Outdoor Teak Furniture
Comments (8)No, I didn’t buy it. I read so many reviews about it that said it just didn’t hold up. And that’s both the wood and the cushions. You can search here on Houzz and see many comments about it. I also considered Pottery Barn, but read much of the same and it is very expensive also. I seem to love the look/design of both these retailers, but in the end I just couldn’t pay that much money and risk it not holding up. I ended purchasing Summer Classics. It seemed to have much better reviews and after looking at it at a store, even a novice like me could tell the difference in the weight, finish and overall quality. Time will tell, and I can keep you posted about it!...See Morepfmaher_hotmail_com
