Leaking
Bought this product about 4 months ago. Leaks from side spray also the
filter and gasket came out of the faucet. Can we get replacement parts without having to take the complete unit out ?

Delta is #1 in our book!
We do and have in the past installed delta products throughout our homes. With proper use and care, their products stand up for years... And if we might have an issue, they step up to the plate and rectify any problems, something you often don't find these days with other companies. Thank You Delta!

only 2 years and sprayer doesn't work
2 years ago I bought this faucet in the rubbed bronze. The sprayer already leaks and there is no way to take it off. I sent an email to find out and haven't got a reply still. It leaks water, costing me money and I can't use the sprayer, water shoots out the button.

Sprayer Issues
Overall, this is a great sink except for sprayer. It leaks a lot when faucet is running. Wish I didn’t have to order the whole assembly to just get replacement sprayer head...

Attractive faucet, but sprayer not durable
We've installed this faucet in 2 new kitchens. It is very attractive, but the sprayer isn't durable. Universal kits are not compatible. Delta is a good brand and we know they'll stand by their product and reach out to us for sending a replacement plus a backup for the replacement, maybe 2!

Sprayer leaks.......
Bought this faucet within the past year and was originally very happy. Now the sprayer thumps and constantly leaks. I see by reading other reviews that this apparently is a fairly common problem with this faucet. I hope that Delta would send a new one to correct the problem with a faucet less than a year old.

Great Faucets
We've had this Delta faucett (#21966LF-SS) in our kitchen for 9 years. I'm actually now looking for stem parts but, except for a faulty sprayer, which Delta replaced, this is the second time I've had a problem and after 9 yrs, I'm pleased with Delta products.(we have 5 Delta units in our home) and have only had to replace seals, thus far. If they replace parts under warranty, isn't that just about a forever product?

I bought this faucet to replace a similar one that was leaking. Easy to follow and understand instructions for installation. We like the faucet except that it is a bit smaller than we thought

We have been needing to replace the hand sprayer every 3 months due to the handle part that you compress to activate the sprayer keeps leaking at the bottom.

Great Faucet--Leaky Sprayer Hose
We bought this faucet a few years ago and it has worked well for us. Recently, the hose to the sprayer started leaking (at the top where it connects to the sprayer). We attempted to replace it with a universal sprayer from Lowe's, but that did not work. Hopefully we can replace the sprayer without having to replace the entire set.

poor choice
I bought this faucet a couple of years back to Replace a Delta faucet I had for years. After a couple of Months the hot water portion the handle became hard to open and close. It also gave an annoying squeak. I sent an email to Delta and they sent me replacement inners. I had a plumber in doing other work and he replaced the inners. That cured the problem for a couple of months and now I am back at square one. Very Disappointed

Nice Set
Purchased a month ago, installed by a professional, had a knock off just like it that failed. The quality difference was apparent from the first, the way the spout swings, the way valves deliver the water, and a lifetime warranty to boot. My wife and I could not be happier.

Love the faucet....but
We've loved this faucet since day 1. It compliments our kitchen decor perfectly. However the spray attachment is another story. We've battled leaks from it starting the second week. Now water pours out the trigger assembly. I came here to order a replacement sprayer but I'm not going to spend $63 dollars for something that appears will have the same problem. I'll look around and see if I can locate a sprayer that works without leaking. DELTA, You make outstanding products but how can you charge $63 dollars for something that apparently is poorly designed and destined to fail? I cant recommend this product on this count alone.

An instant upgrade to our kitchen!
We did not realize how outdated our kitchen faucet was until we replaced the 20-year-old with this faucet in chrome and sprayer. I look for reasons to turn it on!
Next, we will do the bathroom faucet as well.

Nice design.
Only reason I bought this is that they're nice design and it came with the spray. I'm excited!
When I installed it, the hot water ended up stop running due to some debris are stuck inside. I had to wait for 2 weeks to get the replacement parts. I had to hire the plumber to fix it, the plumber struggled to reattach the handler for 45 min. The replacement part don't seem to be fit quite easy. The water pressure is tad bit low but running fine now.
It's kinda disappointing to run into this situation that cost me almost $100 to hire the plumber and suffered without hot water I needed to wash the dishes. :/
Delta Faucet customer service is not fabulous that I had hoped for.
At least, the hot water is running just fine and the overall of this product looks nice. I was worried that this would be a defective product since the plumber couldn't flush it completely and couldn't reattach it nicely.
This is okay product.

Is the Brilliance stainless finish similar to brushed nickel? Will it match or clash with a stainless steel sink?
I replaced a brushed satin with this one and it looks great. I have black garnet counter top.

can i instal adapter garden hose
Dear Zdzichu,
Thank you for your inquiry! The Delta Windemere Kitchen 21996LF-SS faucet has a thread size of 3/4-27. Unfortunately, we do not manufacture any adapters to fit garden hoses for that size aerator. You may want to check with a local plumbing store or dealer for more information.
Best regards,
Tanya

Does the aerator thread off?
Thank you for your question, Dave! The aerator will unscrew from the spout. It has a thread size of 3/4"-27.
Best regards, Jon

What is the thread size for the faucet nozzle? I need to get an adaptor for it to use with my Kenmore portable dishwasher.
Thank you for your question, Michael!. The Delta Windemere Kitchen faucet, model 21996LF, has an aerator with a thread size of 3/4-27.

do you guys carry a cap for where the sprayer attaches at bottom of faucet.. i love faucet dont need sprayer for it it just snaps on it the model 21996lf-ss..if so where can i get it and how much is it
Hi, Carrie!
Thank you for your question. There are two versions for this faucet that have two different sprayer caps. If the supplier code in the back of the faucet escutcheon assembly has no 'A' after the 6 digit code, and you have a round connection for your valve end/hose assembly, you will want RP40301 cap. If the supplier code in the back of the faucet escutcheon plate assembly does have an 'A' after the 6 digit code, and the connection for the valve end/hose assembly is square, you will need RP60295.
You can usually find Delta faucet parts at any dealer that sells Delta faucets. Some good places to check can be found on our website under Where To Buy.

To order parts directly from Delta, you may call the toll-free Delta Help Line at 1-800-345-3358. We accept Visa or MasterCard for parts orders over the telephone.

is the faucet's body solid brass, or plastic?
Brass is recommended for a longer-lasting faucet body, over plastic, which wears out in about 5 years, or so.
Hi, Coso!
Thank you for your question. The 21996LF-SS body is made of metal material.
Best Regards,
Rosanna

Since I'm not using the side sprayer is there a part to stop the water from going to the sprayer line? Thanks Barry
Hello Barry,
Thank you for your inquiry! The sprayer port can be capped. Please refer to the parts diagram below and check to see which code your faucet has on the back of the base. It will be either 413763 or 413763-A. Models with the :-A" can use part number RP60295 to cap off the sprayer outlet. If your faucet has the 413763 code, you can use a threaded cap that works with 1/4"-18 NPSM. Such a cap can be purchased locally at a plumbing or hardware store, or online.
Best regards,
Tanya
