Cheap is not cool

The 6-year-old Mixomat kitchen mixer settled at the outlet no longer pivot, so that we had to replace it with a new one. Since the installation conditions are very cramped in Spültischunterbau that dismantling was not easy and in the installation of this sink single lever mixer it was not simple, because the scheme is the same. Because quality products cost several times, our sink faucet is not to buy, we decided to take the test with this product because the price is unbeatable. So far so good. For our cramped mounting conditions, the battery can not; they could be normal, so easy to install. We noticed during the removal of the goods from the package three: Compared to Mixomat very light (ie less Brass / material) and a non distant ridge in the lower, rotatable member; there was just over it-chromed. A German quality testing had the part rejected. Third, the inclusion of the hand spray is very rich labbe in the battery and it was doubtful whether the weight would fix the shower head in the recording at the shower hose. It is positive that the manufacturer a flexible metal shower hose used (plastic rub in the recording off and the water stinks because the tubing partly by bitumen). After assembly, came the exciting moment, where would show whether inexpensive can also be good. When water removal was found that the battery is very noisy; it rushes vigorously. They allow you to maybe even get used. But unacceptable is the water outlet to the rubber button on the hand spray. And the waters came in two ways; on the one hand properly from the shower head and the other hand, it was the top of the rubber button outside of the shower head towards Spültischbefestigung and would be naturally swell the wood worktop over time. So we have a rag wrapped around the base and the hot / cold inflows reduced pressure. The water outlet on the rubber button was down, but now the shower head did not change from jet to shower; Water came only as a beam. In this state, the battery was not as expected and I wanted to send really because quality comes at a price just yet. For this I would disassemble the battery and the old Mixomat must reassemble again. It never came, because I had the idea to swap the rinse units. So I replaced the new rinsing spray through the old Mixomat shower. The rinsing spray works as it should, at the water intake, it rushes strong, we see over the ridge away. Conclusion: A product with defects; I would not buy it again. For the price you will but can no longer be expected. The next time I will exchange my bearings less on price.
