Rated 4 out of 5 by from Looks good. Design needs work - see my mod! Why do they think the nozzle should be about 6" above the sink rim? This causes splashing above the sink rim I extended with a stainless spring. FREE DESIGN TIP!
Date published: 2024-07-24
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super cool spray options! This faucet offers three distinct spray options and one is like the fountain at the Bellagio! Well maybe not quite as elaborate but very fun to watch. There is a center jet that can be directed and the outer spray is swirly.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Looks great ….not happy with the diamond cartridge I've hd this installed when i had a granite top installed about 5 years ago still looks great. Not very pleased with the “diamond cartridge” i had to replace it twice, this time will be #3 . The first time it leaked into,the sink, the second time under the sink and onto the floor which had to be replaced…..in their defense they did send me a replacement cartridge free of charge. Now it is leaking again. Not sure what to do this time.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Replacement Delta Kitchen Faucet Overall a good product. Looks great. Very easy to install. No issues, no leaks. One change I would recommend is go back to earlier version of spray nozzle. The “shield spray” is gimmicky at best and ineffective. It significantly reduces the effectiveness of the spray mode.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Faucet I really like this faucet, I have it in two homes
Date published: 2024-02-14
Rated 1 out of 5 by from 2nd one and also JUNK!!! The second Leland and it's JUNK just like the first oneIt is very difficult to get this faucet in the exact position where it doesn't drip. There are many reviews saying the same, and I am frankly baffled that there are so many 5 star reviews as well. Delta's response is to engage in a lengthy process to flush out the hot and cold lines. I had this faucet for about 9 months and finally threw it out. The faucet I replaced it with requires no such flushing and easily turns off without drips. In my opinion this faucet design is defective and should not be sold.  Bought the 9178 DST it has very little water flow from it . All water lines were flushed. I would never recommend this faucet to anyone. e to hire my plumber to replace. To date, I will have spent too much time and effort phoning Delta and almost as much on my plumber as I have these faucets. Although I love the look, I can't afford to use Delta products ever again. So disappointed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from solid faucet no complaints good pressure and temp select, install was easy with included wrench. magnet failed within 6mos, but delta sent replacement magnets and it's been 3yrs no issues. cleaned out both screens once a year (not hard water) had some problems with dripping bit tightened up the bolt behind sprayer and not an issue. can't take apart sprayer head with wrench...way too hard as there's a slight leak from bottom (separate from the stream or sprayer) and I bet a clean out would help, but it's stuck and included wrench with teeth cams out before i can loosen it...very minor beef after 3 yeara. LOVE THAT LASER STREAM!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from LOVE THIS FAUCET 😍 We've only ever purchased faucets from Amazon and box stores like home depot, only to have them fall apart within a year, at the most. This time, at the suggestion of friends who are contractors, we purchased our delta faucet from a local contractors warehouse. It was considerably more than the diy home improvement boxstores for the seemingly same product. But the quality of the overall weight, metal and other components is far superior and worth the price. Apparently manufacturers use a different grade of metals for faucets sold through an actual contractor's store versus the box stores even though on the surface they look the same. I have to say, even though I balked at this initially, and cringed at the price difference for what looked to be the same item, there's absolutely no comparison. I'll never go back to Amazon or the box stores for another faucet again. We had purchased the Delta Leland model #9178ARDST, Clos to 3 years ago and I absolutely love it and have not had a single problem with it falling apart or any other mechanical issues

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Not a happy Delta customer I've had this faucet for almost 3 years. I had to replace the DIAMOND Seal handle cartridge in October of 2022. I need to replace it again, Adjusting the water temperature is impossible and very frustrating with this faucet. It's either screaming hot, or not hot enough. I am seriously considering replacing it altogether.
Date published: 2023-11-26
Rated 1 out of 5 by from Looks great, not happy with shut off I purchased Delta - 9178-SP-DST three years ago and while it still looks great, it constantly needs the Cartridge - DIAMOND™ Valve - 1H replaced. Thankfully the company sent me three replacements. But very unhappy to have to keep installing the part every year. Thankfully my neighbor is a contractor. Looks like I have to call and ask for more cartridges again. Maybe I got a lemon?!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from On off position Nice functional faucet but the on/off position is a little sensitive if not right in the center

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wife loves this faucet This faucet is just what we wanted. It works great and fits into the da core os our new kitchen.
Date published: 2023-09-29
Rated 3 out of 5 by from mostly good It is mostly good, but have two minor complaints. when in the 'spray' mode the pressure is high enough where you get water bouncing around. And the length of the 'throw', moving between hot and cold is surprisingly short, so a bit tricky to get just the right temp.
Date published: 2023-07-15
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent choice! My new Delta kitchen faucet is a pleasure to use. The on/ off hot/cold handle is ergonomically comfortable. The entire faucet is an attractive addition to my kitchen
Date published: 2023-05-19
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great Faucet This is a sturdy kitchen sink faucet. The arc is a bit far forward meaning the water doesn't hit the center of my sink (which is pretty large itself). So I'd recommend paying close attention to the measurements. If you have a smaller sink, you my find yourself getting wet when you wash dishes.
Date published: 2023-05-13
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Remodel wow I probably shouldn't, because I have not been able to use it fully, but it is gorgeous! And they did test it when they installed So I know it works. The splash shield is genius, even got a "WHOA" from the plumber. haha I'm very happy with this purchase and it goes well with Delta Composite workstation sink I bought.
