In recent years, with the emphasis placed by consumers on sanitary ware, the cost of sanitary ware has also skyrocketed. In the face of a dazzling array of bathroom brands, consumers often have no way to start buying. When reporters visited the market, they learned that some businesses used people's concerns about health and quality, adopted various promotional methods, and used high prices, various certifications and various excuse to speculate. Experts advise consumers to beware of the moisture in sanitary ware.

The reporter visited the home market and found that many toiletries are produced by manufacturers in Foshan, Zhongshan and other places, and the brand grades include high schools and low schools. Among them, there are not only a few items of sanitary ware with a price tag of several thousand yuan, but some international brand products are even lingering in the range of 3,000 to 4,000 yuan. And most products can be based on the original pricing to 7.5 fold to 5 fold, and some can even hit 4 fold.

The reporter saw in a "some" sanitary ware shop in Foshan, Guangdong Province, a toilet with a price tag of 2,300 yuan. The operator stated that as long as 1,700 yuan can be traded. She said that this type of toilet is a brand-name product, and the price is relatively high, and the discount given cannot be too large. If you buy more things at once in her shop, you can give a lower price. In another store, the operator said that all the toilets, bathtubs, sinks and basins in the store can be used for 50% off. It can be seen that the “moisture” hidden in the price of certain sanitary wares is so large. Even if the merchants discount the sale of goods, the profits are still considerable. Consumers have to pay more for these “floating” weights.

In addition to the price, the quality of toiletries is a concern for consumers. Therefore, in order to increase consumer confidence, merchants have placed quality certifications in the most prominent position in the store. However, if you look closely, you will find that there are a variety of certification organizations, such as “China's certification center” and “China’s logo”. Certification Committee "," a quality system certification center" and so on. The contents of the certification are even more varied, some claiming to be "green environmental protection products", some "high temperature sterile ceramics", and others are "ozone sterilization qualified products". Look at the validity period of the certificates, some for 3 years, some for 5 years, and some for 10 years.

There are various names, but what is the essence? According to industry sources, there are two types of sanitary product quality inspection reports on the market. One is sample inspection; the other is inspection, that is, commissioned inspection. In the entrustment inspection report, they will indicate “Only responsible for the sample”, instead of being responsible for the product being sold. If it is sample inspection, the company does not rule out the selection of the best product, or even purchase the products of other manufacturers from the market. The relevant quality inspection station may be tested. Therefore, some dealers are driven by profits. Some first-grade goods are said to be excellent products when they are sold, and the price of excellent products is two to three times that of the first-class goods.

The average consumer simply does not see the difference between a premium product and a primary product on the surface. That is, some seemingly identical sanitary ware can cost several hundred dollars in price. Therefore, when consumers purchase sanitary products, they must use a 12-point spirit to keep their eyes open and not be deceived by the merchant's tricks.
