Sprayer mount is made of thin plastic
Installed this in my kitchen, Feb. 2011 (paid $132.50). It had worked well and still looked good until early April 2018 when the sprayer mounting sleeve broke. Only my wife and I live here and the sprayer gets little use. There wasn't any excessive strain or abuse placed on this part. I don't see a way to glue it. Now I must decide whether to replace the sprayer with a better quality product, hoping to find something that will look OK with the faucet, or to purchase the $40.00 replacement sprayer that presumably has the same plastic sleeve mount.

easy installation
I purchased the faucet 21996LF in Apr 2012. The only issue is the spray head leaks since it is made of plastic. No luck replacing the o-rings since the issue is the water wears out the plastic part at the spray head

Leaky sprayer
Within a few months the sprayer attachment began to leak and it had to be replaced. Wouldn’t recommend. You get what you pay for, but changing it out is no fun.

Hot water pressure finally
Did some research to replace 2 year old faucet. Steady dip. The Delta was easy to install. I'm 67. I have the same pressure on the hot as the cold. Never had that before. This one has a warranty the old on didn't. Would recommend this to anyone.

The propritary parts remind me of Apple.
Deltas reliance on non-standard fittings preclude the use of non-Delta sprayers and aerators. Bummer. I liked the aftermarket heavy duty sprayer and aimable Aerator I had on my old faucet. Now I will have to discard them.

Baught because of the Delta name, big mistake!
Hate this faucet! Thought I would spend the extra money to get a Delta, and I have never been more disappointed with any faucet i have ever purchased. After only 6 months, it started to bounce when you turn it on. Removed the aerator, and problem went away. Checked aerator to see if it was plugged, and nothing wrong with it. Put back on, faucet started bouncing again. Took off and left off. Water randomly pours out of spout after turned off. Sprayer started leaking at the hose after a year. Now at around the 3 year mark, water comes out of spout and sprayer at about half flow! Never had this many problems with faucets at a fraction of the cost!!

Faucet drips.
Not very satisified that this faucet drips after every use. I would think that a new faucet would not drip after each use.

Exactly as pictured
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this as a replacement to our existing faucet. It fit perfectly and was easy to install. It has a great finish and the look is perfect in our kitchen. Happy we purchased it! It is an excellent product for the money.

Spout got hole and water sprayed
This faucet is only 21/2 years old. Last week had water spraying out from tiny holes from spout. Up til this time was very pleases with how it worked and looked.had to replace it. Didn't buy another delta . Was afraid it would occur again.
Between buying another faucet and the plumber installing it cost almost three hundred dollars.i didn't expect to have to replace it so soon.

Sprayer and Hose are Not Great
Overall, the faucet performs well. However, the sprayer and hose are disappointing. The sprayer has started sticking to an on position.
The sprayer hose has sprung a leak. Now I am trying to figure out which replacement part(s) I need.
To Delta Customer Service: Please tell me which replacement hose/sprayer is correct for this model.
Thank you.

Really like that I can run just hot water without mixing cold.
Can't really give a good review on this because I have not installed it yet still waiting on my new sink to arrive I like the fact that I can choose either hot water or cold water. The Fossett I am using now is a single handle and I feel at times when I want hot water that it might be mixing cold water with it.

It was pretty easy to install.
It was a little hard to get the old faucet out because of some corrosion. The new one was pretty easy to install. I'm 61 so it was a little difficult to crawl under the sick to tighten everything down. I did the installation by myself. One thing I noticed is that when you turn the faucet on very quickly after it has not been used for a while it makes a "Thunk" sound. I think this is called water hammer. Just remember to turn it on slowly. Overall I am very satisfied with the faucet. It looks very nice in my kitchen.

Excellent faucet set.
Purchased this to replace a leaking faucet made in who knows where, i seriously doubt there were any replacement parts available for it. My wife wanted a faucet set with a higher faucet outlet so as to fill tall containers. The Windmere fit the bill perfectly, it looks great and performs very well!!! A friend of ours recommended Delta to us, great choice!!

Great Medal Faucet
This is my second Delta Faucet both are very good. I love the look and style. I am able to fill large pots and enjoy the sprayer. It worked perfectly. The only concern I have is the handles are tall and have a long slide handle which seems a little weak when the handles are turned on and off at the end of the long curved handle.
I love it and I sure hope it works for years and I hope to never need to use the lifetime warranty.

Great looking faucet
I purchased this faucet 4 years ago and recently it started leaking from the center of the faucet. I called customer service and was initially sent a repair kit, free of charge. I installed the repair kit and it did not resolve the issue. I called back and was then sent a full replacement faucet, free of charge. The customer service from Delta was outstanding and I am now a Delta customer for life.

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.

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
