Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The faucet alone, I'd give a four star and the soap dispenser by itself, I'd give a two star.
On the positive side, this combination looks beautiful. The pull-out wand with its stream or spray switch works very nicely and re-attaches securely in place every time. It's looks and functions best on large sinks, such as mine at 33"; smaller sinks will cause more splatter surrounding the sink.
On the negative side, when installing the faucet on thin sinks (some stainless steel sinks can be too thin), Delta recommends an accessory attachment at the bottom to make the faucet more stable. However, the FREE accessory piece is not included and one would have to call Delta and wait another 10 days for standard shipping! Imagine the hassle when you're all ready to install. The worse part about this combination is the soap dispenser. The assembly includes a round piece of rubber protruding on top of the sink and one simply pushes the dispenser into it, with nothing to really secure it. The resistance of the dispenser is a bit strong and we've managed to knocked the dispenser off its assembly a few times, from pushing the dispenser but mainly bumping our hands onto it. My old dispenser had a screw attachment at the bottom of the sink and until it was removed, it never came off! Makes me wonder what was Delta thinking!
My recommendation, buy the faucet only. If you can live with the soap dispenser coming off its assembly at times, then buy it too, cause the combination does look nice.
