I have a Moen shower mixer: nasty non-eliminateable gap between the handle
and round trim plate; wandering temperature...
and a Chicago Faucet shower mixer: neat looking; steady temperature, even
with the john flushing

Most of the professional plumbers I know prefer Moen over Delta by
a long shot.


thats because Delta costs about 10% more.


If you have ever disasembled both you would have seen that the Moen is a
much more elegant solution to single knob mixers. About 1/3 the parts
of a Delta and considerably more reliable over the long term.

I have both in the motel that I own. Delta beats Moen by at least 2x in
reliability. 35 of each.

for good basic chrome plated brass faucets try Chicago Faucet. Designed
for
restaurant use, they are durable and reliable.
