Gennadiy Tsygan knows how expensive it is to build a home in the United States. That’s why he imported almost everything for his dream house from China.

    he will be paying for repairs

    none of that shit can be repaired. No parts availability. See most of the Chinese drop-shipped crap at Big box stores.

      Not the crappy fixtures, but my kitchen cabinets definitely needed to be replaced when my shitty kitchen faucet sprayed water all over the place. Yeah, the cabinets were cheap particle board, too. 😂
