When homeowners in Rapid City, South Dakota, are looking to upgrade their kitchens or baths, there’s one destination that stands apart: Kitchen & Bath Showcase, a showroom connected to Northwest Pipe Fittings. More than just a display space, the showroom has become a trusted hub for both homeowners and plumbers, offering expertise, design guidance and access to some of the most innovative brands in the industry.

A Unique Market Advantage

Unlike many metropolitan areas crowded with competitors, Kitchen & Bath Showcase enjoys a rare advantage—it is one of the only full-scale showrooms in its region. While another plumbing supply warehouse offers a small display, the team at Kitchen & Bath Showcase is known for its expansive selection and its ability to cater to both homeowners seeking inspiration and plumbers looking for reliable product partners.

Why Current Faucets Stand Out

For the showroom consultants at Kitchen & Bath Showcase, Current Faucets—LPG’s exclusive faucet line—has become an essential part of their offering. “We focus on LPG brands as much as possible,” Showroom Consultant Tiffany Forster said.

“Current has been a fantastic addition because its solid brass construction truly sets it apart from other brands—customers notice the difference right away,” said James Mastin, who works in inside sales at the plumbing wholesale site and recently joined the showroom team to help engage plumbers who don’t typically visit the showroom.

Durability, quality and price are consistent themes. “We’ll hand someone a Current showerhead and compare it with another brand. Every single time, they’re shocked at the weight and sturdiness,” Forster explained. “Then, when we tell them the price point, they’re sold.”

Design Trends That Resonate

The showroom team has also tracked evolving customer preferences. Matte black finishes remain the hottest trend, with square and modern silhouettes dominating faucet selections. Gold makes the occasional splash, while oil-rubbed bronze holds steady just beneath matte black’s popularity.

“Our customers want style, but they also want assurance of quality,” said Forster. “Current delivers both without making them feel like they’re overreaching their budget.”

The Power of Hands-On Experience

One key to the showroom’s success is putting the product directly in customers’ hands. “As soon as someone holds a Current faucet, they feel the difference,” Forster explained. “The weight, the finish, the construction—it all speaks for itself. Once they see it, they want it.”

This tactile experience extends beyond homeowners. Plumbers and service professionals have quickly recognized the ease of installation and serviceability of Current products. Mastin recalled a standout service story:

“A customer once had a small cartridge issue. We called Current, and they overnighted the part. It was in our hands the next morning, on a Saturday. That level of support is incredible, and it keeps our customers loyal.”

LPG Membership: A Critical Resource

The team is quick to highlight the value of being part of Luxury Products Group (LPG). “Our membership has been a huge help because what we do isn’t something you can just walk across the street and compare notes on,” Forster explained. “With LPG, we have a network of people who understand our business, our challenges and our opportunities.”

A Win for Every Customer

Perhaps the most telling story came from a couple who initially thought the showroom was out of their price range. “I overheard them whispering that everything looked too expensive,” Forster recalled. “I showed them Current, and they couldn’t believe they could get designer-level quality and style at a price within reach. It changed their whole perspective.”

For Kitchen & Bath Showcase, Current Faucets represents more than a product line—it’s a tool for elevating the showroom experience, strengthening plumber relationships and delighting homeowners.

The message to other LPG members is clear: If you’re not showcasing Current Faucets, you’re missing out.
