Of the 100 pulls I ordered (bought many more than I needed as I wanted the flexibility of changing my mind on sizes and then returned the rest), only one any had sort of little flaw in the nickel. In the end, I chose three sizes of the Aubrey pulls (no knobs) in polished nickel. Even though DH didn't like the style of the pull at first, he liked the quality very much. Some of the other pulls were rougher and you could feel a seam on the handle from the mold or whatever they use to form them. Compared to the other pulls, the Aubrey felt completely smooth on the handle part and heavier. I went on to order samples of a few other pulls from different companies when DH didn't initially like my choice of the Aubrey. They all felt solid, heavy, and very well made. (I was disappointed to not be able to rummage around on the huge wall of hardware like they had years ago.) I bought small samples of the Aubrey in polished nickel and polished chrome, a couple of other pulls DH liked, and a couple of different knobs. I was impressed by the quality of the pulls and knobs RH displays on the little boards. Have you actually seen or felt any of the hardware you're considering or just taking your GC's word on it? I had my heart set on the Aubrey pulls so drove 65 miles to a store to put my own hands and eyes on them before I shelled out my hard earned cash, which, btw, I recommend doing with ANY hardware you're considering.
