Don’t buy if you have attention to detail
The media could not be loaded. Don’t buy them. Look nice in picture but when you hang them the hndles does not seem to stay tight. They won’t stay straight over and may not bother everybody but it really pisses me off. We have white two panel door and every time I look at them and see them sagging down I get worked up. I have tried and tried to adjust the inner plate to get them straight and then you open s door and they go back to sagging not to mention how much slop the actual lever has. Can wiggle the post part of the handle up and down more than I would have expected this is not of first house that we put schlage in but prob. My last for the money I spent I expected a way better product. Tried to sell them on eBay to buy new hardware but just not ready to loose that much money yet. I will added pics and video of the sloppy poorly built products also. I did see other reviews with same concern about the sag just figured it was install or lack of knowledge but they don’t stay straight no matter what you do. Maybe if it had 4 screws but the 2 just won’t hold it

Won't buy again
These look nice -- but you have to turn the handle ALL the way down or up to open the door. Very annoying. The travel / action is weird. Everyone loves how they look but NO ONE likes them after they open the door once or twice.

Hate the 90 degree turn to open door
I don't like that it takes a full 90 degree turn to open the door. The handle has to be vertical to open the door. Other manufacturers open with a 45 degree turn.

Beautiful but beware Dummy lever is only for one side of the door
These are beautiful well-made door knobs that go well with our contemporary decor. My husband had no trouble installing them -- it only took about 10 minutes for the first one when he was still learning how to do it. Of note is that the Dummy lever is only for one side of the door -- so if your doors are like ours, and need a dummy lever (handle) on both sides, order two. The regular door knobs, of course, come with a handle for both sides of the door. We're very happy with this purchase.

Looks great, feels great in your hand, and works perfectly
I bought this to use as a temporary (as in for several years use) front door handle for our new (new to us, but actually old) home. The front door area is completely covered so I'm not worried about the elements getting to it. We plan on upgrading our door eventually but we're not sure what kind of door we will be getting yet so I didn't want to put more money into a "fancy" front door handle when I didn't know if it would be compatible with our next door. I just couldn't handle the round brass handle anymore (before and after photo attached). We had already changed out all the locks right when we moved in so this handle was a nice match to our new schlage keyless entry deadbolt. The doorknob was very easy to install, I did it myself in a couple minutes. It comes with clear instructions too if you're new to switching our handles. The hardware updates along with a fresh coat of paint on the front door have really made a huge difference and we'll be much happier living with this door for awhile longer now that it's been refreshed. This handle sits nice and level and feels good in your hand when you open the heavier metal door. We've had no issues with it at all and the finish is even better than I expected. We got it in matte black which I thought would show fingerprints/smudges but it's actually stayed looking very nice and clean and I don't notice marks of any sort on it any sooner than I would on a "normal" color door handle.All in all it looks great, feels great, and works great and we'd highly recommend this lever! We plan on getting more for our home as we gradually update and replace the interior doors as well (they all currently have the same round brass doorknob as well). Great way to give a door a whole new look without spending a whole lot of money.

Nice looking except for a design flaw
These look very nice. The matte finish is sure to show oils and grease from hands though.Biggest drawback is that the beauty ring at their base is held in place by a couple dimples in its edge and these can be unsightly and detract from the look of quality, cheapening the look.The dimples are not something that can be rotated to be on the bottom of the ring either, so there is nothing you can do about hiding them. Something that looks like the manufacturer should have considered in the design.

EASIEST INSTALLATION OF A HANDLE LOCK I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED EVER!
This handle lock is the easiest installation I've ever experienced. I installed this replacement or an old bathroom door lock in under 15 minutes. It was almost effortless. I kept the old latch holder because it was far better quality then the thing this came with. Other than that the lock and handle mechanism is of superior quality.I included pictures because general on installing anything I am all thumbs due to cerebral palsy BUT in this rare instance I did a true bang up job getting this installed. What's more I purchased 3 of these bathroom door locks and all three installed with ease. I have 2 bathrooms but the toilet and tub are separated by their own door. The 2nd bathroom has just the single door. These locks installed without issue.These locks get my five star best rating ever.

They looked nice going on
I bought 40 of these for our home we just built. They looked nice going on. Within a week, we had to go back and start tightening them back up. Out of the original 40, roughly 10 of them continuously become loose. another 5 continually have the handles drop. Again, they look nice but they are not made well. The internal workings are cheap. I can't imagine the problems we're going to have in 5, 10+ years.

Lo mejor.
Se ven genial, llevo utilizando por un año aprox y no hay ningún problema referente al mecanismo.La chapa es muy fácil de colocarla, no necesitas mas que un par de destornilladores.Punto a favor:- se ve muy elegante y duradera.- materiales de excelente calidad.- son seguras.- los colores se ven mucho mejor en físico.El único pequeño problema que pequeño problema que le encontré es que en el acabado plateado se notan algo las marcas de los dedos pero es un detalle muy insignificante.RECOMIENDO ESTA MARCA

LOVE! At a (once) great price!
I LOVE these door handles... I made the mistake of buying two from Home Depot at almost $50/each. They came in fancy wasteful, impossible to get into plastic packaging. These ones are exactly the same at a far better price point and come in basic cardboard packaging. I'd recommend buying them on Amazon a thousand times over.Edit: when I bought these in August 2018 they were around $35. I see now they’re much more expensive. Do better Amazon!

Great Quality, and solid product
Super happy with this purchase. Was in a real time constraint to get locks for my new home and needed them asap to pass inspection for lock up. These locks came within one day! No joke, I live in a remote small town away from any big centers and I ordered them yesterday morning and they arrived this afternoon. Thank you Amazon! I will be posting this same comment on all the locks because they were able to get me 90% of the locks this fast! The remainder are to arrive Monday and Thursday. Thank you!
