I got the privacy version and I like the quality. The handles are quite heavy. The springs support them well, and I hope that will last. There's not much play in the handles. Night and day from anything you'll find at home depot, which are all sloppy junk. The privacy lock works well, auto-unlocks from the inside, everything you'd want. Has a positive detent, doesn't lock on its own, like many China special door handles I looked at, which don't have a positive detent. The latch/tongue work smoothly. The tongue has really sharp edges. Not sure why they designed it that way.
There's also a crazy trick with the tongue that's not explained at all in the instructions! The way to change the orientation of the tongue (for a door that opens towards the outside) is to PULL OUT on the tongue, which is spring loaded, and spin it around.
In short, the quality of these door levers is night and day compared to anything you'll find locally. There are some Chinese handles that are finished well, and have little play, but their latches and locking mechanisms are junk. I couldn't find fault in these. They seem closer in quality to something like Emtek (which can have at least as much play, or more, from what I've seen in store).
