like the style
The overall look and operation is very good, but what I don't like is the fact that the handle has to be perfectly centered to completely shut off the water. If I'm running hot water and move the handle left to shut it off it continues to run until I pull the handle back to the center position. I've had several single control faucets and used many others and never did I have to locate the temperature center to completely shut off the water. I also find my water left running from other people that use the faucet. I constantly have to remind everyone how to shut the water off.

The pulldown faucet feature is wonderful
Delta's name, reputation, our prior Delta purchases, the look & features of this model are what prompted us to buy this kitchen faucet. We have been using it almost 4 months & are very pleased with the push button ease of using either spray or stream, & the firm magnetic fit of the hose when retracted into the faucet. The high rise faucet makes cleaning up larger items much easier, & the pull down hose is very convenient for smaller items & washing out the sink. I am becoming more used to being able to fully turn the water off (on the first try), as it must be exactly in the middle position.

Our family is happy with this faucet.
Everyone loved the upgrade and the kids were making excuses to use the new faucet. The Venetian bronze finish is attractive and goes well with our sink. The pull down handle is something I've always wanted and I'm glad this faucet has the MagnaTite docking system because I read reviews on other faucets where the docking systems failed and I'd be royally peeved if I purchased a faucet that suffered that failure. I wanted a high arching faucet and while that may have some drawbacks such as more likelihood of splashing, it's easily remedied. The benefit of being able to fill and wash pots and pans easier very much outweighs the drawbacks.
Installation was a breeze. The worst part was getting the old faucet out as the nuts were difficult to loosen and there wasn't much room to work. Once that was out I had this faucet connected and running leak-free in 20 minutes and I had never installed a faucet before. I did have to enlarge the soap dispenser hole with a grinding bit on a drill but that wasn't difficult at all.
The cons are that the handle takes some getting used to finding a position for warm water but I think that's minor and may be fixed setting the faucet handle to the other limited range position but I don't care enough to try that. The soap dispenser is plastic but maybe that's a functional choice, I don't know, if not I'd rather have paid a little more for a metal one. Also the soap dispenser sits a little low off the top of the sink (2.25 inches). It's not a big deal on my sink as it juts out over the sink but depending on how wide your sink top is, it could be. Overall, I think these cons are minor.
Bottom line, everyone loves the look of and performance of this new faucet. Installation was a snap. I could have purchased a cheaper faucet, but I don’t think I’d be as pleased. We’re very happy with this purchase.

Drawbacks of this faucet
I feel the arched spout sits up too high. Wish the spray was
more adjustable. Find it hard to adjust the water temperature.
It is very touchy about getting it just right. Wish the soap dispenser was a little higher. For the money was hoping for something a little more practical. Otherwise the faucet is fine.

Greatest kitchen faucet I could find...and I looked!
The design is great. I love the magnetic holder on the spray head, the ease of changing from a steady stream to a spray, the tension on the sprayer hose, and the the one step, single, faucet handle.
On the negative side: I found the installation instructions to be unclear, especially the first steps when not using the single hole installation. There were just too many parts, and nothing saying that they were not needed! The instructions need to be more clear on how to install the three hole mount and base plate.

This faucet is awsome!
This is without a doubt the most expensive faucet I've ever purchased. I was tired of leaks, loose fittings, and repairs that were needed at the worst possible time. I am absolutely pleased with the quality and performance not to mention the appearance and compliments from others. Well worth it.

Excellent Faucet
My plumber recommended Delta faucet due to their easability to install.........I was torn between this (one which pulsl down) and the one that pulls out.........I don't regret my decision...it is a beautiful, it works with ease, and my plumber this type that pulls down last longer due to the design..........So overall I am very pleased with my purchase....

Excellent appearance!
I found this product to fit many of the needs I required for a replacement faucet. It takes a little getting use to adjusting the water flow to advoid water splashing back out of the sink. I was a little apprehensive when I opened the package and found all plastic piping to the valve body for the price being charged. The installation instructions could have been a little clearer. For one thing, if I needed the stabilization plate (which is not included, nor was this referenced any where on the outside box) I could obtain one free of charge by calling a toll free number. Most of the time, when a replacement faucet is purchased, the installation is imeadiate and there is no reason to call up and wait for a part. If this were needed, I would have returned this item to the store and purchased a different faucet that was complete for my needs. Overall, the appearance is excellent, the features are well thought out, and so far there are no leaks with all the plastic piping.
