this caused me huge problems when i was living in madeira with shower heads. the chinese ones are made out of such thin, shitly cast plastic moldings that inevitably cracked and split even when i took care to never use it at high pressure especially with hot water, and i probably spent about 100 euros over 2 years on this bullshit. zero alternatives at any small hardware stores anywhere. it's fuckin disgusting. i cursed this one time in front of a shopkeeper also, and walked out. lol.

seriously, what the fuck is wrong with people that they think this is OK? it seems to also be EU policy to drive vendors and customers to these subpar garbage products, or to import the shit in the first place.

i now severely HATE shopping because of how little real choice there is. we are all coming under china's communist shitty quality manufacturing regime.
