Poor quality Wash trough and geysers

Franke Stainless Steel Wash Trough has started to rust and crack at the seams. Purchased this 1 year 3 months ago and it's already giving up. This was trough has hardly been used hence me noticing it now. Nonetheless, contacted Franke and they advised that it's not for COASTAL USE OUTSIDE. There should be some sort of sticker on the item advising customers of such. The Franke geysers are no better, all 4 Franke geysers of mine have already failed.
