Rated 1 out of 5 by from Leaks, replacements leaks worse Bought a 4453 for clients doing a kitchen remodel. First faucet leaked right from the start, would not shut off. Returned first faucet for a replacement, installed it and the replacement leaks worse than the original. Now, after reading reviews here, I see this is a very common problem, been going on for years. I specified Delta to my clients to pick from, now I look like an idiot. DO NOT BUY THIS FAUCET. I am out two installs so far and have an upset client. Not sure what to do now, Cients #2 choise was the 441 model, but after reading reviews, looks like same issue. Someone please help me.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beautiful replacement This is a beautiful and functional kitchen faucet. It was a replacement for one that just wore out, not a Delta. I was concerned about the color since I had brushed nickel, but it matches well. Easy to use and is everything I wanted.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Disappointed but I will live! It water spots badly, the old one just like it was heavier and did not spot so badly. You also have to find the sweet spot when turning off or it drips. It is the exact faucet model of the previous one, wish I had chosen a different faucet.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Looks great and that’s about it… This faucet looks wonderful, unfortunately it ends right there. Almost impossible to get it stop dripping/leaking and now today the ha doe decided to break off completely. Not the set screw either, like the actual “metal” inside the handle that houses the set screw just broke in half. After owning for a short period of time I am not impressed from “top brand”. Will be looking elsewhere from here on it. Stay clear!

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Never Again I had this faucet installed in 2010. By 2019 it was dripping. Delta sent me a replacement cartridge which solved the dripping for 2 years. I now have the same problem again and expected a cartridge to last longer. I’ve also noted the problem others reference. You basically have to turn this off in a very precise way or it will stay on dripping. So annoying.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Don’t buy Do yourself a favor and don’t buy. Unfortunately this was the faucet that our builder picked for our new house. Within less than a year it was leaking. I figured how to position the handle just right to stop the stream. Eventually it wouldn’t even shut off. I contacted delta and they sent out a replacement part. Well less than 6 months later same issue again. Delta I don’t want a replacement part I want a new faucet that works for a lifetime like you claim it will.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great faucet, questionable installation. This delta faucet works great, but the 3/8" PEX supply lines leave a lot to be desired. I had to get a pair of SharkBite fittings and braided supply lines to finish the install. The PEX was simply too stiff to do a worry-free installation.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Not half as good as older models I've had nothing but problems after 2 years of owning this faucet. The design of the Diverter Clip is one of the dumbest things I've come across. Once the Sprayer's attachment popped out of the housing, the original Spray Cap and O-ring suffers the same problem. This renders the kitchen sink useless. It's as if the designers have never seen a compressor coupler kit for an air hose. My last Delta faucet lasted over 14 years. This is my last Delta faucet.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Design Flaw Purchased and installed about a year ago. Have problem with water turn off ...water runs down column and into the 180 degree base causing rusting and squeaking. I have to oil the base to eliminate squeaking about every two or three months.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Leaking sprayer tubing dripping faucet I have a wet flooded cabinet under my sink and into the ceiling tiles below due to the tubing which is connected at the head of the spryer splitting, It is an obvious split and malfunction of the tubing. I now have to order, have installed and replace a part which should not have split it was not overused or aggressively used. And it should stand up to heat/cold and usage. In addition I bought this 2 years ago and the facuet has dripped for over a year now. I have to remember to ensure it is off tightly everytime.I have lived with always checking for drips but now I have to order and replace a sprayer which should never have split like it did. I do not recommend this product.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Doesn't stand up to Delta's reputation I bought this a few years ago. From day 1 it had a low flow rate, which I just "lived with". Then the side sprayer started to stick while on. I finally replaced that. And recently over that past few months, the water doesn't not shut off completely when pulling the handle down. You have to find an EXACT position, after half a dozen tries or more. Quite frustrating and after reading the other reviews, this seems to be common in this model.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Hard to turn off, major pain I've had this faucet for about 3 months. When you pull the handle forward to shut off the water, it still leaks. You have to move the handle to the left just a certain amount to get it to shut off. It has to be in the EXACT location, or the water will still run. i now check it when i have to get up in the middle of the night. It's been that way from the day I installed it. I don't know if they are all bad, or just the one I have. Very disappointed in Delta.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Attractive look, subpar life expectancy Attractive looking faucet, that doesn't last. From the beginning, this faucet has had issues when shutting off the water, especially from hot. Many times I've found the faucet running or dripping. To turn off the water, you have to adjust the handle to pinpoint the exact spot to shut the water off. Constantly adjusting the handle each time the water is shutoff is very frustrating. The handle has become stiff, and squeaks when moved between hot and cold, along with a slight leak.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Looks good, Doesn't work too good. I wrote a review of this faucet and gave it one star. Delta sent me some parts to rebuild the unit and now it works perfectly. Cant figure out how to append my original review.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Looks good, Doesn't work too good. I've had this faucet for 7 years. When you pull the handle forward to shut off the water, it still leaks. You have to move the handle to the left just a certain amount to get it to shut off. It has to be in the EXACT location, or the water will still run. If it's left or right three microns, it still runs. I've walked in the kitchen thousands of times to see the water still on. It's been that way from the day I installed it. I don't know if they are all bad, or just the one I have. I have a bathroom faucet from Delta that does the same thing. Bad engineering I'm thinking. Very disappointed in Delta.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Not happy with this faucet. Have had this faucet a little over a year, the sprayer sticks in the on position, water is hard to turn off as the handle has to be in just the right position. Find the water streaming quite often as my wife has a hard time turning it off. Have used Delta faucets all 53 years we have been married and have been very pleased until this one.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good Value, Easy to install Easy to install, works well, wish the hose for sprayer was a bit longer, but for the price this is a good faucet set.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Delta is reliable and easy to service, if necessary [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this faucet to install in my craft and painting shop. I usually avoid single handle faucets, but this one operates very efficiently. The faucet serves a double utility sink, so with the separate side spray, the water reaches to all areas as needed. Delta makes and reliable product which most plumbers prefer to more upscale products.

Q&A

faucet and handle are misaligned

Just bought a home, it has this faucet installed. The faucet and the handle are misaligned, with the handle turned to the right by about 30-45 degrees. I was able to remove the lever by loosening the setscrew, but was not able to determine how to rotate the cap/bonnet/valve so that the handle would be aligned with the faucet. Ideas? It works fine, just bugs me about the alignment thing
Asked by: bob
Hi Bob, Thank you for your question. The position of the handle is determined by the installation of the valve. The valve body can be aligned by loosening the mounting screws and nut under the sink, rotating the faucet, and then re-tightening the nut. http://www.deltafaucet.com/customersupport/documentation/4453-ar-dst.html?document=mi&fromDetailArea=kitchen&documentIndex=0#flashWrapper Best regards, Jon

Does the handle swivel to the right and left for cold and hot water and can you adjust for warm water

4453-AR-DST. Am thinking about buying this one but have this big concern. Also I have 2" space between raised countertop and faucet handle I have now. Specs say need 2 1/2. If handle swivels, would this still be a problem?
Asked by: Pat
Hi Pat, Thank you for your question. The handle will tilt up to turn the water on and right/left to adjust the temperature. We recommend that there be 2 1/2" from the center of the faucet to the back splash. Please see the Technical Specifications for this and other measurements: https://media.deltafaucet.com/SpecSheet/DSP-K-1353-DST%20Rev%20E.pdf Best regards, Jon

Faucet Finishes

I have a 4453-AR, I'm not sure of the finish that I have. I need to order a single mount escutcheon & gasket. What is the difference between the stainless steel and the arctic stainless steel. The pictures don't show enough detail for me to identify which I have. I updating counter tops and want to have a single mount. I can take a photo of what I have if that will help. Thanks in advance.
Asked by: RLB
Hi RLB, Thank you for your question. The AR in the model number stands for the arctic finish, SS would be the brilliance stainless. The SS finish has a gold hue to it, comparable to brushed nickel. The arctic stainless has a blue tint that matches with stainless appliances. The part for the single mount would be the RP60692AR. Thanks, Dave

I am trying to remove tha aerator with the blue tool supplied w the faucet.Do you just twist the aeraror off, counter clock wise? It seems very tight

The faucet is only 2 weeks old, brand new.
Asked by: Bruce
Dear Bruce, Thank you for your question. Yes, to remove the aerator from your Delta Linden kitchen 4453-AR-DST faucet, you would unscrew it counter-clockwise. Best regards, Tanya
