Bill, check your email. I believe Fred emailed you sometime today, because
our Maval distributor just got back to us this morning. The rack comes with
a lifetime warranty, we just had to find out from the distributor how to
handle it. (It's the first time we've had a warranty claim on one so we had
to ask.) I'm sure the "pallets of returns" represents a tiny percentage of
the parts they rebuild, given that they handle every make and model. We've
certainly had no problems.

Jack, I believe Trevor or Cheri already emailed you as well, to say that
they are going to send you a new faucet. Again, check your email and let me
know if you didn't receive it.
