Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is our third faucet for our newly remodeled kitchen and we finally found a faucet we love.
The spout is angled so it shoots the water on a bit of an angle. In our particular configuration, the water almost reaches the disposal basket -- maybe misses by about a millimeter. The flow is soft and highly aerated -- it very rarely splashes all over.
The handle isn't overly sensitive and allows a full rectangular range of motion. That is, when we have the flow low, it's just as easy to adjust hot/cold as if it were on full blast. Contrast that with the Delta we returned -- it's range of motion was shaped like a triangle such that as low flow it was almost impossible to get the temperature right.
This faucet has some kind of anti-hammer feature -- when you turn it off an on, the water "fades" on and off. A side effect of this is a little water comes out after you've shut it off. I personally like this feature because I hate hammering. Not everyone will like this, though.
Soap dispenser is quality. Two months in it's still working, unlike the really cheaply made Price Pfister we returned.
Side spray is ok -- the hose is still mal-shaped from being packaged, so it's a little quirky pulling out of its holster. Spray itself is a nice medium spray -- not too fine like a stream, but enough pressure to flick particles of food off the dishes.
Connections are all high quality and it's easy to connect leak-free. The cheapy Price Pfister we returned leaked from it's T-diffuser from day one. I don't think this Danze will ever leak -- it's solidly made.
UPDATE: this faucet developed a leak after 9 months. I guess I jinxed myself. Danze customer service was nice and sent all the right parts to fix it.
The faucet does not have limited range -- be careful not to spill water up on your counter and backsplash.
