Good information for people who decide to purchase cheaper faucets instead of known trusted brands. It's really not right that Amazon doesn't seem to care what's sold on its site - it only cares about its profits.

There are also many dangerous toys for infants and toddlers that sold on Amazon - cheaper copies of the name brand ones that are safer.

Oh no, Stax, these guys are legit. If you haven’t used their web site, more’s the pity. They are builders, not faucet sellers, but they have done a thorough review of every imaginable brand of faucet.

I had no idea Amazon was this flagrantly irresponsible.

Thanks for sharing this info. I avoid Amazon at all costs, but good for other people to know.

@Stax, I get your concern, but these guys are totally legit. I love @StarCraft Custom Builders 's website and go there to educate myself about faucets when I have to buy one. They are a great resource.

Let's be clear. Not all Chinese made faucets are illegal.

A great many faucets made in China and sold on Amazon, Wayfair, Walmart, etc. are completely legal to sell and install. In fact, one Chinese brand, Forious, made our current Best Value Faucets list in the Asian-made economy category. The brand has some issues but is overall a very good buy..

Some faucet brands that we generally think of as American are made in China, including the majority of Delta and Brizo faucets and all of American Standard faucets.

So, being made in China is not itself reason to avoid a faucet brand. Some Chinese-made faucets (Gerber, Strom, and Lefroy Brooks , for example) are among the best-made faucets in the world.

@Stax --- I'll add to the vouching for StarCraft and its faucet info as both legitimate and helpful. To be sure, we recently have had such an uptick here with AI generated spam that it bears being cautious when you are not familiar with a poster, so do not take my comments as implying in any way that your question was not legitimate.

That said, I, like Kendrah and the others above, have found the Starcraft site to be as comprehensive a collection of legitimate, detailed info on brands and models as can be found these days including detailed info on warranties, warranty service and regulatory compliance. In the years I've been checking (and recommending) the site, I've never found the Starcraft site selling any faucets. So, if you haven't checked out Starcraft's faucet info compilations, it think it would be well worth your doing so next time you have an interest in the topic.

I can totally believe the warning. Amazon is rife with fakes as well as junk. Nowadays if I'm looking for a specific brand, I go to the brand's own online store (whether at Amazon or the brand's own website) to buy.

"Amazon is rife with fakes as well as junk."

Oh yea....
