PRODUCT FEATURES
Delta® MagnaTite® Docking uses a powerful integrated magnet to pull your faucet spray wand precisely into place and hold it there so it stays docked when not in use. Delta® ShieldSpray® Technology cleans with laser-like precision while containing mess and splatter. A concentrated jet powers away stubborn messes while an innovative shield of water contains splatter and clears off the mess, so you can spend less time soaking, scrubbing and shirt swapping.

Kitchen faucets with Touch-Clean® Spray Holes allow you to easily wipe away calcium and lime build-up with the touch of a finger.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from It's OK. Functional and seems to be well made. Been using it about 2 months. Two issues: 1) I find the "spay shield" to be useless. I prefer the regular spray. 2) I would like to have a way to stop the water flow w/o altering the hot/cold mix (e.g., for rinsing a variety of dishware, utensils, etc.) Particularly with the "oval" shape of the handle movement, a flow interrupter would be great. Would recommend to a friend with a few minor reservations.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from 9178-AR-DST Review This faucet was installed one month ago. I read online reviews before purchasing. I like this faucet, BUT THE ONE WEAK LINK is the plastic clip that attaches the faucet outlet to the hose. I had the clip also bound by 2 tie wraps to keep it from coming apart (as was recommended in online reviews). This morning we had a flood under the sink as the clip popped off from pulling out the spray hose (even with the tie wraps). I called Delta and they are sending me a new clip, as they said the original clip may have been faulty. Delta needs to design a better clip to keep the hoses together (hopefully a locking clip). Very nice faucet other than the clip issue. I would not recommend this faucet to others unless the clip design is improved.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best value in quality for pull-down kitchen faucets. This is the second Delta pull-down faucet that I've had. Both replaced old faucets. The pull-down feature is very convenient as is the ability to switch from stream to spray with one finger. I had it installed by a plumber as I don't have the strength or the tools to do plumbing work. It is attractive and works great. I did not install the soap dispenser included as I don't care for these. This faucet replaced the old faucet, separate control, and separate spray. The kitchen sink area is much cleaner and less cluttered.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Easy Set up for a Weekend Warrior like me Our old faucet began to leak and we purchased this one from Amazon. The setup was pretty easy and I liked the fact that a wrench was included in box to make it easier to tighten the faucet to the sink. The only negative I have is I wish the hot and cold water lines were aluminum and not plastic tubes but I was till able to make it work.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Less than two years Faucet began dripping at less than two years of use. Replaced the cartridge per the website but without success and according to a plumber we had in who investigated the faucet online, this model has a history of this problem. Unable to repair. Disappointing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love this new faucet Got this new faucet installed shortly before the holidays... and we've been loving it ever since. Great water pressure, and we really enjoy the spray options. We needed a replacement as the older faucet was starting to clog up. This Delta faucet has been the perfect fit for our needs and performs really well. Highly recommend.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very Happy, after a bad start I had a professional install the faucet. We were very pleased until day 5 when we found water coming out from under the kitchen sink cabinet onto the floor. I looked under the sink & saw water spraying from the pull down hose connection to the water supply hose. Fortunately, it only leaked when the faucet was turned on. I called the plumber back & he found that the plastic connector on the hose was fractured. This was on Saturday. On Monday, I called Delta customer service & the representative readily agreed to send a replacement hose which I received a week later. Meanwhile we had to "go to the creek" so to speak, to handle our kitchen water needs for 10 days. Plumber replaced hose & now all is well. We like all the features & especially the "spot shield technology". Thanks for the prompt customer service.

Q&A

I see where you have answered the question about the difference between Model 9178 and 9678. What is the difference between those and Model 19978?

Asked by: Kathy61
Hello Kathy 61, Thank you for your question. The Delta Leland Pull-Down 19978-SS-DST faucet is a Home Depot exclusive model and it is similar to the Leland 9178-AR-DST faucet. However, the 9178-AR-DST is designed with the ShieldSpray feature and the 19978-SS-DST model is not. https://media.deltafaucet.com/SpecSheet/DSP-K-19978-SD-DST%20Rev%20C.pdf Best regards, Tanya

fawcet is leaking do you have repair kit

Asked by: tttt
Hi, tttt! 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. Pull the cartridge out to clean the bottom puck of the cartridge. Reinstall the cartridge assembly. 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

What is the tubing for the pull-out spray made of? I am concerned about the materials as the drinking water is now being consumed from this spray.

Does arctic stainless water spot?

Asked by: Melody
Hi, Melody! Thank you for your question. The 9178-AR-DST Arctic Stainless will show water spots. We recommend to wipe clean with a soft towel. If you should need something stronger, we recommend 50% white vinegar and 50% water solution to clean. Best Regards, Rosanna

I have the Delta Leland touch faucet 9178 TAR DST. Can it still work when the batteries go dead

Asked by: LID
Hi LID, Thank you for your question! The light will flash red when the batteries are low. You can remove the batteries while the water is running to switch to manual mode. You can also turn the faucet off with the handle, disconnect the solenoid, and connect the hose directly to the faucet to bypass the solenoid. Best regards, Jon

Is there a method to keep the Leland faucet centered on the plate provided to cover the extra sink holes? Mine keeps sliding all over the place leaving a gaping grin were it fits onto the cover plate.

Asked by: Mr Streck 88yrs
Hi, Mr Streck 88yrs! Thank you for your question. I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing an issue with your Delta 9178-AR-DST faucet. We recommend to tighten the mounting nut for the faucet, under the sink to secure. You may also use a bit of silicon sealant around the plate at the sink base to secure the plate. Best Regards, Rosanna

I plan to replace my kitchen faucet with the Leland 9178-AR-DST. The 9178 spec sheet indicates that the temperature handle movement is from centerline of the body away from the sink. The Q&A seems to contradict this. Please clarify?

Asked by: TomA1
Hello TomA1, Thank you for your question. The handle of the Delta Leland Pull-down Kitchen 9178-AR-DST faucet operates by moving/pushing it away/outwards from the faucet to turn on the cold water. Rotating the handle towards the back to adjust for warm and hot water. Best regards, Tanya
