The difference between 40mm and 30mm
I wanted to replace 1-1/4" knobs. I first ordered the 40mm from seller "Storm Store". (See my other review and photos there titled "VERY BIG and beautiful"). They were very nice quality, but huge.
So this time I ordered 30mm from seller "iQualite". The 30mm are a very close equivalent to 1-1/4". They look great on the vanity. (First two photos.) I'm glad I ordered 12 when I needed 7, because the centers on these are not mirror, but machined. I had to sort them into ones whose centers matched, rejecting a couple stinkers. (next two photos). The last two photos show the 30mm compared to my 1-1/4" chrome, and then with the 40mm.
These 30mm from "IQualite" came each in an individual box, with only a single screw per knob. No washers, nor alternate screw size assortment. I needed to swap with some of the screws and washers that came with the 40mm set from "Storm Store".
Once I got them installed with the choicest of the lot, they look fabulous! They shine up nice, and look much better than the acrylics sold for a lot more at home improvement stores. They are just what I was looking for.
