Plumber
I've installed a number of American Standard faucets. Basin faucets have a solid brass body, ceramic stems, and relatively solid handles. I don't mind using them and I've not been getting callbacks on the ones I've installed over the last 5+ years. I'm not as impressed with the kitchen faucets, but I'm not getting callbacks on those, either.
The thing I don't like about them is having to call American Standard for parts. You'll note that the store where you buy them doesn't carry parts for them. That means two trips for a plumber. And a lot of these faucets are a Chinese puzzle to anyone not used to working on faucets.
