Default MDF architrave

Anyone got this fitted?

Joiner forget to mention the fact that the architrave he's got is
MDF(or, I forgot to specify soft wood).

Just how bad does it chip and dint, will I need to replace it in a
couple years? Everytime I see it in B&Q it looks battered.


The main danger is if it gets wet. It will swell and fall apart

Therefore it is unwise to use it in kitchens and bathrooms or perhaps
anywhere with a stone floor
