My house is old but renovated and they used MDF trim for everything inside including wet ateas

That stuff is pure crap. It looks good for a while, but it doesn't hold up well at all. It is easily chipped, marred, scraped and in wet areas it's just a matter of time before it blows out like a sponge.

I'm not a big fan of the primed finger joint trim but it is lightyears ahead of MDF. All wood, clear trim is crazy $$$$$ now.
