Good or Bad Choice Brush Gold Fixtures
 

We are in the process of a full remodel 2 baths and kitchen. Has anyone installed brush gold fixtures? If you have did you have any issues with the finish? What brand fixtures?

My only comment would be they may look nice now because that finish is trendy but, in 10 years they will look dated. Like it was "the early 2020s look".

Do what you like but, you can't go wrong with brushed nickel. That finish has stood the test of time and will remain.

I agree with brushed nickel, also it is my understanding the "gold" finish is very thin, and if this wears you will have a problem.

Are you referring to real gold, or just a gold color? But, either way, it may be in style for awhile, but soon it will go out of style. Also, you usually need to change the door hardware to match the fixture color or it will look tacky. This would include the door handles, locksets, hinges, and doorstops. Personally, I would go with a silver or nickle color.

Not a fan of the tacky look.

The minerals in the water here may ruin them quickly

Not a fan, house down the street had gold fixtures, drawer pulls, faucets. They just looked cheap, wearing quickly, even though they weren’t cheap.

The next owner removed all of it and replaced with brushed nickel.

But if you are in love with the look do what makes you happy

We built a house in 2001 with golf fixtures everywhere. After about 10 years, was out of style and looked incredibly tacky

Brushed nickel finish and Moen for the brand. We just removed all our gold fixtures because the looked "dated"
Look into Moen fixtures, they have a lifetime warranty and customer service is great. Our bathroom fixtures have aerators that are a unique size. When they begin to plug from sediment, we call Moen and they send us two new ones for free. Of course they send a 50% off coupon for your next purchase and that cost me big. But that's another story. Good luck!

Yes in one bathroom. No issues Moen. Go with what pleases you.

Buy exactly what YOU like and what YOU want, you may not be alive in 10 years.

Look at brass fixtures they have the gold look and will not fade

Several factors to consider. If you can afford to update every 10 yrs and it's what you like enjoy! For us more of a timeless look with less updating is preferred. In our last home we installed all vinyl plank flooring in the newest trend of gray. It wasn't long before we wished for a more timeless look of wood.

Isn't gold out of style now? I didn't know gold had come back into style. Hmmm. Gold is tacky looking, IMHO.

Why be so concerned with what others think? Stand up, make YOUR decisions according to what YOU like. Stop looking to others for validation, what do they know?
