The Grohe faucet we had originally picked out years ago for the kids bathroom is now discontinued. It's either a California lead issue or Grohe totally discontinued it. Apparently, for the bill regarding lead in children's toys, they tacked on a regulation regarding lead content in faucets. So now, certain faucets are not allowed to be shipped to California. Be wary, internet shoppers!
I was planning to be one of those internet shoppers for faucets but the plumbing store prices are the same as the internet prices. Therefore, no point in ordering through the web when I can interact with a real person in a real store. If there any issues, it'll be easier to deal with an actual person and store.
Outside of faucets, also took a look at toilets. Yes, so very exciting and very necessary. Below are pictures of Inax toilets. Inax and Toto are the top 2 toilet makers in Japan. Now Inax has a distribution center and customer service center in the Bay Area so need to worry about not being able to get replacement parts, etc. They only make dual flush but they're supposed to perform better than the Toto dual flush toilets. Also, the skirting around the bottom of the toilet seems to be way easier to clean than the Toto skirting.
