Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I just finished installing this faucet as a replacement for a kitchen faucet that had developed a leak. I was looking for a reasonably-priced, single-handle faucet with a sprayer that would fit a 3-hole sink. Guess what? This is a reasonably-priced, single-handle faucet that fits a 3-hole sink! Now that it's installed, there are a couple things that aren't immediately obvious which you may care about:
(1) The handle, when the water is on, is almost completely vertical. This means that it's difficult to change the temperature of the water just by nudging the handle with your wrist. If you're hands are full/dirty, changing the temperature might take a bit of finesse.
(2) The sprayer is small and made of plastic. It may prove fatiguing to use. It's fully functional, of course.
It installed fairly easily, although there were a couple of non-obvious points. The supply lines are permanently fastened to the faucet and are made of rigid copper tubing. They are shipped bent 90 degrees, and need to be straightened out in order to be fed through the sink hole. Then, they need to be bent to the side, in order to provide clearance for the sprayer line connection. Bending the tubing takes substantial strength, particularly when operating in the awkward confines beneath the typical kitchen sink. I didn't run into substantial difficulty, but some care is needed to avoid kinking the tubing.
All in all, I'm quite satisfied with the results, now that it's installed!
