We were looking for a high quality faucet and sprayer that didn't have open access from the deck to the space under the sink. On other pull-down or pull-out faucets, the gaskets are imperfect and we always wind up with moisture under the sink. Dirt and food get into the sprayer shaft, etc.... Plus, the pulley systems that raise and lower the sprayer take up a lot of space and get caught up on other things stored under the sink. They never seem to work smoothly. Having worked in restaurants in college, I knew that commercial dishwashing faucets/sprayers solved these problems.
In addition, we wanted a faucet that would last. Our previous faucet fell apart, literally, even though it was a well-known name brand. The painted finished peeled off and even worse, it was filled with sand, which eventually started leaking out. Big box stores sell faucets in the same price range that are vastly inferior - some are even plastic!!
This faucet is amazing! Very solid and works perfectly. The directions for installation could be better, but it was fairly easy to figure out what needed to be changed. Maybe an error in translation from German to English? Similar faucets we found were 10-20 times as much. This is a great deal!!
Since our sink has three holes, we bought two soap dispensers to plug in. We fill one with hand soap and the other with diswashing soap. Work great. Some other reviews criticize the bottles that come with, but these could probably be replace, maybe even with a commercial soap bottle?"..." Read more
