I love this because its that Oil rubbed bronze color without all that "fuss" that often comes with it still clean looking and modern. My only complaint is that I do not have a tub in my master and that the dial is so clearly marked for shower or bath but overall its beautiful. I bought 2 of them.
Style wise, and quality wise, this is a great set. One lovely feature - is that should the valve fail at some point, there are screws in the valve that let you shut off the water flow to just that faucet, rather than having to figure out how to shut off the water to just that part of the house. One FYI point is that the part of the valve that goes in the wall... is huge compared to the others we've put in the other bathrooms. It's easily 2x the width of the others, meaning we had to do a bit of adjusting to the framing to install it. Not a problem, like I said, just an FYI. Now - the shower head though... is pretty cheesy. We didn't choose to install it - rather used one we had left over from another bathroom. It's small, and appears to be poorly made - unfinished seams, light-weight - very different from the rest of the set.
Just had this installed in our renovated bathroom and it looks great. The design as well as the finish is excellent.
Foreign made and parts are not readily available. I keep a screwdriver in the bathroom to tighten the knobs once a week. Just spent $XXX to have the springs replaced so they would not leak. Buyer beware!
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Fine
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Poor. The knobs will not stay tight.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Fine
We are pleased with this and have in our basement shower that we completed this year. Everyone comments on the shower and especially the shower head. Love it.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? perfect

- How accurate was the on site description of the product? very good
The shower head is stupid on this thing. I didn't plan on using it anyway, so that was fine with me. Otherwise, this is beautiful and very high quality. You will have to use a waterproof calk on the screw that holds the handle on tightly as it tends to loosen very quickly on its own with use. Love the lever location for shower to bath.
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? yes
- How is the quality of the product? great
- Did the description onsite accurately describe the product? yes
This shower/bath faucet is very solid and high quality. It looks modern and matches with many styles of sink faucets. Very clean lines. No problem with installation. Great price. The shower head is bit small since I was looking for a big shower head. But still looks great. The shower head needs to be installed higher than normal. I ordered second set for another bathroom. Delivery was fast as usual and I can always count on Overstock quality.
After I got the entire shower put together the faucet started leaking. At this point I have no choice but to either live with the "drip-drip-drip" or rip out all of the tile I just installed. It was fine for a month, and then just started leaking... I
We like everthing about these Fontaine Bath Tub Faucet, Valve, Shower Head Set except you can't set the water pressure out flow. It's either on or off.
If you want to pay somebody to install this good looking faucet for you, then keep in mind that the quality is so poor that it will only work for 2 months, so don't loose the number of your plumber.After two months, the valve broke, the flow of water is not sufficient, the cost of new faucet and repair is far more that I've already paid for this product.Plus Overstock is not helping considering the refund period is over they consider themselves not responsible!Stay away from Fontaine products!
Relatively easy to install (for my contractor). very attractive, solid workmanship, nice satin finish.
my husband and i installed this, retrofitting it into 25 yr old plumbing, and it was relatively straightforward for very experienced diy'ers, otherwise leave it to a pro. the finished product is excellent, in looks and performance. the price is good, and the shipping was very fast. we had one part that was a little damaged (the shower arm was dinged), but a call to the 800 number got us a new one within the week!
Great product for the money. Our plumber installed it, as we are doing a total remodel. We have shopped around, and Overstock has the best deals. Very satisfied. My son loves the shower spray (it is in his bathroom) and the quality is great - the product looks clean and modernized.
This is exactly what I wanted. This is a very handsome,well-made faucet/shower head. Haven't had it installed yet but looks typical of any installation. Might buy another for my second bathroom.
We just had this installed. Nice quality- heavy; modern looking. The mini-rainshower head is far more attractive than most shower heads I saw out there... My contractor was quite impressed with the price. I have not used it enough to comment on the function.
