Rated 5 out of 5 by from Better than expected Replaced older, more expensive Delta faucet where cartridge could not be changed due to stripped set screw. Was height limited by cabinet above sink. Wanted magnetic coupling but unavailable in faucet that fit. Surprisingly, this faucet recoils and mates easier than the one it replaces.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Beautiful faucet, worked well for first 2 years Beautiful faucet, worked well for a couple of years then began leaking (hard to shut off flow) due to cartridge (part # RP50587Y). Florida water is hard and hard on the cartridge. Delta is gracious enough to send replacement cartridges under warranty; otherwise, at $40 a pop for a new cartridge, I would not be able to afford to keep it. First cartridge lasted 2 years, the second lasted for almost 3 years. I miss the o-ring replacement type faucets. Rating would be lower but saved by the great warranty service.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Flawed design, now leaks I purchased at Home Depot about a year ago and although it is pretty solid, the design of the switch makes it difficult to fully close consistently. Now, over time, the faucet has started to leak. I never had this issue with my Moen faucet because their switch/valve made it easier to fully shut off. I was hoping this faucet would last longer.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Very disappointed I purchased this faucet and it worked well for a few months. Now the spray nozzle gets stuck in the faucet and nearly impossible to remove and insert as it should. I tried lubricants to help; however, to no avail.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy install if you’re replacing a newer faucet It took my son and I a full day to install the faucet. I had a faucet that was about 15 years old, and it was leaking and in bad shape. I bought this faucet at Home Depot and brought it home just to find out the water lines were a different size. We had to make three trips back to Home Depot to find the right adaptor. If your faucet is over fifteen years old they changed the standard for faucets since then, but that was about the only problem we ran into a couple more hiccups because the directions were not that good. Other than that for the first day the water flow and sprayer worked great, compared to what I had it is a dream.

How to replace parts RP50587 & RP50587 ?

Asked by: MaryLou
Hi MaryLou, Thank you for your question. The water supplies below the counter must be shut off before attempting to change these parts. Once the handle button and set screw have been removed, unscrew the cap and bonnet nut. The RP50587 DST cartridge then lifts out. The new parts can then be changed. Make sure you do not over-tighten the bonnet nut as we recommend only one full turn with a wrench past finger tight. Best regards, Edward

 Grant Model #16953-ss-dst single handle pull out kitchen faucet installed the product however water is still dripping from the spout after use

Asked by: Jennie
Hi, Thank you for your question, and I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing a leak from your Delta faucet. There is a bonnet nut that is holding the cartridge down, underneath your handle. We recommend to tighten the bonnet nut to stop the leak. To do this, turn the water off at your shut off valve. Remove the handle. Tighten the bonnet by turning clockwise, to the right. Install the handle back on and turn the water back on. Test the faucet. If the faucet still leaks, we recommend to replace both the valve cartridge assembly, RP50587, and the bonnet nut, RP51503. Best Regards, Rosanna

My sink has slightly (<1/16") less clearance than necessary for the Grant Faucet mounting nut to screw all the way up the underside. It hits on the clip tray for the sink, which is 9/16" high. Do you have a smaller nut, spacer or other solution?

Asked by: George
Thank you for your question, George! This model requires 2 1/2" (64 mm) Max. Deck Thickness. We do not have an extension kit that will work with DST models unfortunately. Best regards, Edward

How difficult is it to replace the valve assembly if the unit leaks?

I've found it difficult to replace the cartridge in single lever faucets. Has anyone ever replaced parts that cause the faucet to leak? What is your experience?
Asked by: New purchaser
Hi New Purchaser, Thank you for your question! The RP50587 valve assembly is fairly easy to install. The part should include installation instructions when ordering it but we also have a " How to video" on the installation. Here is a link to the video: http://www.deltafaucet.com/shopping-tools/research/video-gallery/video.html?v=1KMlxNiWni8&fromHowTo=1 Best regards, Brandis
