Rated 4 out of 5 by from I'll use the example it does have great features I bought it because I like Delta and reviewing things in the store this one had good features I liked, single control that could be a lever or knob, selection to limit the hot water temp, and large, plastic, mounting posts that won't corrode. Installed myself with no problems!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great faucet I've had only Delta faucets in my house for years. I got this faucet to replace one installed in 1974 and couldn't be opened to replace the parts. I liked the new one when I saw it and bought that one with the water lines, new drain, etc. it had everything needed but the tools. Once the old faucet was removed the installation of the new one was easy. It works great. And with the new diamond seals it should last longer then me.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice, sturdy, solid function Nice, good looking, fairly easy to install and solid function. The pex lines are quite long, somewhat difficult to route but seem to work well. Would definitely recommend. Good for kids/spare bathroom.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Easy installation Selected this model for its practical style and its 3 function removal sprayer. Operation of each spray function was not lacking in anyway and easily met my expectations. Very happy with results. Did feel the need to go on line for installation instructions specific for this model since instructions provided covered several models making them somewhat difficult to follow. This 78 year old is very happy with the ease of installation after removing our garbage disposal for needed access, removing the old faucet, installing the new faucet, replacing the disposal, with all efforts taking about 3 hours to complete.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Early problem I bought and installed a #521-DST-A in late 2014. From the outset my wife could not turn it completely off. If she centered up the flow handle, there was a running leak. I wsa more patient in learning how to get a no-leak position for the flow control handle: it was a little beyond the centered position. I have had to somewhat carefully find this position for the last five-plus years. She has been taught to do the same, but complainingly. Recently we have had regular and random visitors who don't know the secret, and I don't try to educate them all. I plan to replace valve cartridge to attempt to fix the problem. My advice to anyone considering purchasing this faucet: don't be surprised if you have annoying difficulty turning flow off completely.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from 20 Minutes . . . OK. So I am NOT a plumber, don't want to be a plumber and when I do plumb, it is at least 5 trips to HD. But This time--One and done--that's it. I removed the old faucet, installed the new one using the attached tubing and it was literally that simple. In fact, it was so simple, I was sure I did something wrong--waited for leaks, refused to replace the contents beneath the sink for 6 hours--I was just sure Niagara Falls v 2.0 was soon to begin. With the new push on supply valves, this was a dream! Thank you Delta for making us epic fail plumber wannabes look like heroes!! You listened and we won big!

I brought a replacement 521-ECO-DST-A but it doesn't have a hole in the back for the sink drain rod. Why did you remove this feature from this faucet? Do you make the version of this faucet with the sink drain hole in the back? This is very disappointing

Asked by: Bruce51

Hi! My handle has been loose the last two weeks and today it popped off. I have the metal handle (not crystal). The cartridge looks secure and is still in place and there is no leakage. What do i do?

How do I tighten the ball onto the faucet? It is loose and I forget how to do it.

Asked by: GiantsMom
Hello Valued Customer, Thank you for contacting Delta Faucet Company! The knob handle on our 521-ECO-DST-A can be tightened with a philips screw driver. The button on the tip will need to be removed first, then you can tighten the screw to the ball assembly. We appreciate your inquiry. Please reach out directly if you have further questions!
