Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)We have gone through quite a few faucets in our quest to find one that would meet our needs and with this one, I believe we finally found it. My wife and I live in the country and run a farmer's market where we can many items and have been frustrated in the past with faucets that were too short, or not manuverable, or would not rotate from side to side, etc. We looked at several on Amazon and also at the local plumbing stores and chain stores, just not able to find the right one for our needs. Finally, this one from Danze came up on Amazon and I did some research on it. One of the areas I concentrate on are the reviews of those who have purchased items in the past and read of their experiences concerning what is being researched. I read all the reviews on this one, including the negative experiences and were aware of the one comment that it sprayed all over and served better as a shower than a kitchen faucet. We ordered this anyhow and I was impressed with this product from installation to the present.
We have owned and used this one for about three months and it has fulfilled our expectations in all respects. The installation was fast and easy. The directions were simple yet straightforward and easy to follow. It took me about 15 minutes to remove the old faucet and only about 8 minutes to install this new one. What I was first struck with as far as using it was concerned was the spring on the hose for faucet handle retraction instead of the weighted hose used commonly for other brands. This spring eliminates the weight and the hose from getting caught on obstructions under the sink and not retracting the handle. The spring is so much easier and does not get caught on anything underneath. That feature is great. Also, because of the construction of our sink, we are unable to have a plate so the faucet assembly has to sit right on the sink itself. This has posed a problem in the past because the faucet has gradually come loose from the sink and be continually retightened. The Danze faucet has a ring on the bottom that remains stationary and the rest of the faucet turns instead. That was another plus. Halfway up the faucet, there is a section that turns as well, so you could have the handle part remain stationary while turning the rest of the faucet. The actual faucet handle comes loose and has excellent range of motion for most applications. The handle quickly and easily retracts into the main housing when you are done with it. There are two main sprays, one a solid stream and the other a multi-spray. There is a third but you have to balance the easy-to-reach toggle switch on the top of the faucet to get it. That spray contains both a small solid stream and a multi-spray. The handle itself is very convenient and adjust. It requires a little getting used to, because other faucets have their handles on the top of the faucet and not in the front. However, after you initial training phase on learning this newer approach, it actually is more convenient.
The faucet is higher than other ones we looked at but this is what we wanted, due to our canning with large pots, etc. It actually is easier to use than the lower faucets because you can get colanders of vegetables and fruits underneath easier and wash these products. We also make homemade wines and this faucet is just right for getting the larger 3,5,6 and 7 gallon car-boys underneath for cleaning. I can see why the one review listed splashing as an issue because when you are using this faucet, because of its height, you are going to experience some splashing. However, we have deep sinks and the spray from the faucet goes right into the drain so this issue is minimal for us.
All in all, I have no complaints about this faucet and I would buy another one in a heartbeat. A great product ! ! ! !
