The ends of the “gold fixture” are silver and there were permanent marks in the finish. When I tried to exchange it the manufacturer said first said that’s how it is supposed to be. When I said I was unhappy with the permanent marks in the finish they said it wouldn’t affect the performance and offered me a 10 discount for my trouble. I was on a time crunch and after already contacting them 2 times and having to wait for their replies I ended up hanging it and they gave me 20off. Not used to haggling and having to keep an inferior product. Will be sure to never buy from this manufacturer again.
