From the Manufacturer
Westbrass was founded in 1935 by two brothers, Jack and Aaron Kagan, to serve the needs of all plumbing wholesalers on the West Coast. The product lines at the time included items such as faucets, valves, malleable fittings, etc. After becoming the premier distributor of plumbing products, the company was bought in 1985 by Max Homami. Seeing a boom in the Home Improvement Industry, Mr. Homami had a vision to make Westbrass the leader in Kitchen & Bath Accessories.
The company currently manufactures its own products made of the highest quality materials. In order to ensure the excellence in the industry, these products are made to pass the highly stringent requirements of NSF, IAPMO, ADA and many other regulations. The Los Angeles-based company now sells a wide range of Plumbing Specialty Products, Bath Waste & Overflows, as well as Decorative Kitchen & Bath Accessories worldwide.
Westbrass holds several patented items including the Deep Soak Overflow designed for extra-deep soaking in most bathing-wells, the Closing Linear overflow and several other intellectual properties. The customer base includes kitchen & bath showrooms, plumbing wholesalers and supply houses, OEM and ODM companies, as well as several national home centers.

It looks and feels quality. Fairly heavy, actual metal construction. Unfortunately the finish did not acceptably match my faucet (Delta Champagne Bronze) so I returned without installing.

This air switch works well and looks great. Check under your sink before you buy. My water line is below the outlet and the box didn’t fit in that space. I had to unscrew the outlet and turn it upside down for the box to fit. Not the most elegant solution but it works great.

Haven't installed it yet, but quality looks great. Button is definitely metal. Feels solid. I can hear the switch engage when I press the button - even with the whole length of the hose. Easy to install - just plug it into the outlet, plug in the disposal unit and connect the hose to the switch button. I can't wait for the countertop guy to drill the hole.

My switch for my disposal was under the sink in our new house and it was a pain to turn on and off (firstworld problem, I know, but still..).We had an open space on the countertop by the sink, and this fit in perfectly! Now it looks so seamless and it's very easy and smooth to utilize the disposal. It looks SO professional! I love it!This will actually dress up your kitchen. A MUST-HAVE!My boyfriend installed it in about 5 minutes. Piece of cake. Just follow the instructions. (It took longer to empty out under the sink than it did to install the switch.)It looks GREAT and matches all of my stainless appliances.

I love this Air Switch and trim unit. It comes with both the air switch itself, plus the gorgeous 'oil rubbed copper' button. I had a really difficult time finding a matching button that could sit next to my oil rubbed bronze bridge faucet. Oil rubbed bronze has a lot of variations in color across brands and products. The faucet I purchased had a lot of metallic flecks of color and looked almost copper. I originally ordered the oil rubbed bronze switch trim unit from this same exact company (Westbrass) however, the color was a plain flat brown (it used a powder coated paint.) I decided to try the antique copper to see if it would match. I'm so glad I did! It is a very shiny metallic copper with a darker aged effect over it that resembles 'oil rubbed'. It is only a minor shade lighter than my faucet and my husband tells me I'm the only one who notices it because I'm obsessively staring at it. I have to say I do love it and recommend it. It you're not sure which ones will match, just order a couple and hold them next to your other faucet(s) then return whatever doesn't work. It's really the only way to be sure you will like what you order.
