Rated 4 out of 5 by from Stylish replacement and lighter weight Purchased two (2) of these faucets to replace older Delta faucets in his/her master bath. Like the design and the added height of the spout. Easy to install. Found the included and permanently attached pex hoses a little difficult to work in terms of fitting to shut-offs. Also noticed the faucet was extremely lightweight when compared to the smaller Delta faucets we were replacing. Obviously less/lighter material. Hope the replacements stand the test of time. Thank goodness for the Delta lifetime warranty!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good flow without splashing. My old delta faucet had problem and asked my plumber to replace it and he brought two and I chose this.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from All 5 Faucets leak around Escutcheon at Gasket All 5 faucets at my home are leaking around the escutcheon. Called to request replacement parts - representative couldn't find this part - not helpful. Wondering if a new larger gasket will help, given that this smaller gasket is poorly sized (material cost reduction initiative) and has a known failure mode. If sealant has to be applied as a band-aide, please provide pictorial of how to apply it and which sealant to use. Also, please update your installation manuals, accordingly.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sleek Lines Bought four faucets to update those in my home. The Delta Lahara has clean, sleek lines, work well and are comfortable to the touch. They have the accessories to finish the polished look in the bathrooms.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Handsome, but two design flaws detract After a month of comparison shopping, my partner and I just bought this faucet for the master bath in our first home. Installation was mostly trouble-free (especially considering that I'm a total plumbing novice). The faucet looks fantastic and works satisfactorily, but I encountered two design shortcomings. 1) When I tested plugging the sink drain, I would pull up on the lift rod only to have it routinely come loose and out of the faucet. Despite multiple efforts, I could not sufficiently tighten the screw that attaches the metal strap to the pop-up drain lift rod. I ended up using duct tape to keep these two parts joined. This makes it functional, but duct tape fixes should not be necessary on a brand new $120+ faucet. 2) The exposed screw holes on the faucet handles are an eyesore that cheapen an otherwise elegant design. Upon completing all the assembly and installation steps, I was so surprised to see that I searched the carton (and then online) for set screw buttons or covers, only to discover that the exposed screw holes on the centerset Lahara faucet handles are intentional. This is an easy fix; Delta's own RP83791 and RP78524 include button covers... Why not the Lahara? Overall, this faucet checks my important boxes: Durable, functional, handsome, matches the stainless and satin nickel accents in my bathroom. Fix the exposed screw holes and Rube Goldberg-esque pop-up drain, and this is a five-star gem all day long.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Spout canted I purchased two of these for the master bath. One was fine but the other the spout is canted towards the cold water, I noticed this after I installed it. They look good and work good but I am disappointed about the defect.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Drain Assembly Cracked After 6 Months! I love the look of the Lahara line of bathroom fixtures, but the faucet drain assembly cracked 6 months after installation. I don't know how or why it cracked, but it should hold up better than that!

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Don't Purchase Stainless Finish I purchased this for one of our bathrooms and it's a great functioning faucet for the price point. I just wish I had purchased chrome rather than the stainless finish - it "spots" very bad and it looks terrible unless you try to polish it constantly. Chrome would have been easier to keep clean. Overall just disappointed in the finish I chose.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Soft Color like in the Brochure [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this for my Mother's bathroom. Looks so glamorous! Her old faucet had been leaking and needed to be replaced -- it was stainless and white. This one looks amazing in her tiled bathroom and goes beautifully with her shower curtain as well. Also ordered the towel rack and am very pleased with everything. Works well and like that the spout was a bit taller then the last one which makes it more practical.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Looks good/ quality disappointing Delta was chosen for all brass fittings and ceramic valves but came with the cheapest PEX waterlines and plastic washers. Looks great but low quality construction surprised me after checking specs first. Will see how long it takes to leak. Hopefully before the warranty is up. Delta will have to pay for the plumber to remove and install another better quality faucet for the price. It wasnt the cheapest either. Handles are loose fitting too. Will see. Just installed by plumber.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Very Nice! Bought it during update of small downstairs bathroom and it really added a modern look to the room. Pop-up drain looks like it's not down, but apparently there is a gasket or something that actually seals it so the water doesn't drain out. Over all, very happy with it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Worked great. Looks nice [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to replace an old one piece faucet, and it works well and looks very nice as a single hole faucet replacement. I had a plumber install it, so I cannot comment on the ease on installation

Q&A

Prices for Lahara centerset bathroom faucets, chrome and steel -- $176.95 or $157.50 or $240 something? Also, need a centerset faucet with valves to extend the shanks. Are there extenders for Lahara centerset? For the Everly centerset?

Asked by: Susan
Hi, Susan! Thank you for your question. At this time, our Delta Lahara 2538-MPU-DST and the Everly 25741LF Centerset Faucets do not have extension options. The maximum deck thickness for the 25741LF Faucet is 1 3/8" (35 mm). The maximum deck thickness for the 2538-MPU-DST is 2 1/4" (57 mm). Best Regards, Rosanna

What is the difference between the Delta 2538-TP-DST and the Delta 2538-MPU-DST bathroom faucets?

Asked by: Portland
Thank you for your question, Portland! Model 2538-MPU-DST is the standard Two Handle Lahara Centerset Lavatory Faucet. Model 2538-TP-DST is the Tract-Pack version, meaning it is only sold by the case quantity (3) instead of individually. Best regards, Edward
