First off, let me state, you get what you pay for! I did not want to spend a ton of money changing out 10 sets of door knobs. My wife likes satin nickel EVERYTHING, so the brass coated door knobs I perviously had in my home had to go. With the decent reviews on Amazon, I ordered them. FYI, I ordered these directly from DSD GROUP (the manufacture of Constructor Prelude locks) through Amazon. These were not fulfilled by Amazon, but by DSD GROUP! On to my review: -the locks have everything needed to install in your standard door (2 door levers, latch, striker plate, screws, and instructions) -instructions are mediocre at best (I have installed over 500 door locks, so those were of no use to me) -satin nickel finish is good, and handles feel solid -plastic clam shell packaging looks nice, and does its job -spring back rate is good, from both top and bottom (lever handles) -latch assembly is made from thinner steel, but it does the trick, these are interior doors we are talking about! -they do look very modern, and do get compliments from family and friends -very easy to install, as there is no locking mechanism to deal with on Passage lever locks Why I gave 3 stars: - when I received my package from DSD GROUP, the box looked like it had been tossed into a clothes dryer, at turned on for 30 minutes, there were 2-3" holes in the box! Luckily, all of the locks but 1 Passage, where in great shape. The 1 Passage however was damaged in the finished face, and the clam shell was cracked open and the locking latch was COMPLETELY missing from the box. This could be delivery service damage, or the lack of packaging filler material around all the locks! Either way, I contacted DSD GROUP, they are going to ship out a new passage lock to me. UPDATE: They did end up sending me a new unit. So great customer service. I do recommend these locks, and the price is great too! CPS
