Kitchen Remodeling - faucets, delta


I was pleasantly surprised to find something so nice-looking at so low a price, and bought it based on the good reviews. I wasn't disappointed. It was fairly easy to install and looks beautiful in our kitchen. Washing dishes is easier with the height of this faucet, and the sprayer is quite strong. As other reviewers noted, the shipping was fast; it was in our possession within 4 days of ordering. One note about the sprayer-- it's a good idea to shake it out after using, as if you don't, a few drops of water will accumulate in it and can spill over onto your sink edge. Not a big deal at all, but that simple step can save you from having to go back and wipe the sink down if you're obsessive like me!



I'm glad to have found this faucet, as I know we'd have spent well over $200 for something of the same quality at our local home improvement store. Brushed Nickel Kitchen Faucet with Sprayer (life time limited warranty)

I bought this faucet to replace a Moen that lasted no more then 6 months. What initially got my attention was the price and the separate hot and cold knobs. My Moen had a single handle for both and started spraying water out of it and all over my kitchen window. I figured a simpler design would not have this problem. The goose neck style nozzle allows you to rinse large pots and pans very easily. The sprayer is not only better quality than the Moen's but it is extremely powerful! It will blast almost anything off quite easily. Also, the brushed nickel finish matches a basic stainless steal sink ten times better than a chrome finished one. I paid twice as much for the Moen at Home Depot and it didn't even last a year. That's what I get for not remembering that Amazon carries EVERYTHING.



EDIT: Recently the hose became unattached from the sprayer. I tried to reattach it and it just shot off again spewing water into my cabinet below. To correct the problem I had to kink the hose and zip tie it. Now the water does not pour out when you turn the faucet on, but now I don't have a sprayer!

There are many good things about this particular product. First I have to mention the fast shipping. We recieved the faucet within two days. The instalation was very easy. What I like about the faucet is how high it is. I do not have a very deep sink, so fitting larger items underneith the faucet was hard (in fact, that is how I broke my last faucet!), but with the high arch of this faucet it is much easier. The sprayer is better quality than I expected it to be. It is all metal and feels very sturdy. I just bought a house and so I have been shopping around for everything, I have to say that this was the lowest price that I could find for this style faucet with a metal sprayer.



Overall, I am very happy with the product and would recommend it to others.

I purchased the faucet new. It arrived with obvious damage that was done before it was even shipped. I rated the service as FAIR in my first review because I had to contact the manufacturer for replacement parts and do the repair myself. Repair to a faucet that was obviously broken before it was even shipped. After I placed the review, I received an email from the seller. Not apologizing for the problem. They complained that I had filed a FAIR review and stated that they were SORRY THAT THEY HAD HELPED ME with the repairs. Actually, they hadn't helped me. I had to contact the manufacturer of the faucet for the replacement parts because the return info on the invoice directed me to do so in case of a problem. Won't purchase from these sellers again.

As others have remarked, it arrived quickly. It was far less fussy to install than the faucet it was replacing. The installation instructions are brief and clear. The important parts are metal, but the "brushed nickel" is plastic. This is not a problem with a product that is well made, and I am satisfied with this faucet. It has a solid turn-off, and the swivel of the faucet arm is tight. The hose of the sprayer is a transparent plastic tube without a weight, so it doesn't retract as easily as our old stainless hose with weight, but we expect the plastic to relax with time. It has such a powerful spray that we don't use it at full force. I especially like the fact that the filter can be removed without tools, just twist it off. Our old faucet required a wrench for this task. It is a handsome looking fixture. We were tired of paying more than things are worth, especially with plumbing. We looked in the $200-$300 range and didn't see anything we liked better than this. This is elegant and works well. And we saved a bundle.

This might have been a great product but due to improper packaging I wasn't able to find out. As soon as I noticed the broken handle in the box I went and I bought a similar product at H*** D****. Lo and behold, there was a piece of cardboard holding the main item in place and all the other parts sat nicely tied on their places...

I'll think twice next time I come upon an item sold by YouRemodel!!!

If you are looking for a beautiful, well-priced kitchen faucet with sprayer, this is it! It installed easily and quickly (DIY). Handles turn smothly and the aerator outputs water in a nice flow (not "spitzy" or splashy).

This faucet is very good looking and seems to be very durable. The high arch allows more room in the sink for larger dishes, pots, etc. The sprayer works well too. It was also easy to install. Absolutely no complaints!! Great price!! - Delta Faucet - Delta - Hardware - Faucets'
