We installed this faucet a little over half a year ago. It looks pretty good, and it doesn't leak or anything, but it's not very well made. The biggest problem is that the faucet handles are always working themselves loose. This is true for both handles. Every so often I have to take off the "H" and "C" caps and tighten the screw inside. Otherwise the handle becomes increasingly wobbly and then falls off. Also, the actual lever part of each handle tends to come loose regularly. It's easy to fix--you just tighten it up by giving it a twist. But it's weird to always have to do that.
Additionally, the design doesn't make much sense. Having both of the faucet handles project forwards from the faucet instead of upwards may give it an interesting look, but also gets in the way a lot. Position the neck of the faucet too far to either side and it's almost running right on top of the handle. I suppose this wouldn't make such a difference if you have a single-basin sink, but my faucet is mounted right over the middle wall of a two-basin sink, so I need to be able to swing the faucet neck to the side when washing pots. The handles frequently get in the way.
Still, this is an inexpensive, good-looking wall mount faucet, and it does work. So I'm giving this two stars instead of just one.
