Rated 5 out of 5 by from Truly a Lifetime Warranty We bought a pull down kitchen faucet when we built our new house in 2015. It began to leak, and I contacted Customer Service for help. After several attempts to fix the leak with parts sent by Delta, it was determined that it was not fixable, and Delta sent us a brand new replacement faucet.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect Faucet The faucet's design allow plenty of space for large pots. I like the handle on the side. I don't drip water everywhere when I turn the water off like my other one. The sprayer is small and not cumbersome to use. Very happy with my new faucet.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Faulty Valve This faucet looks good and performs well, except it's extremely difficult to close completely. The reviews I read mentioned that and it certainly is true. I think Delta needs to fix this.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Nice faucet Installed 2 weeks ago, so far very satisfied. Only drawback is that the pullout seems a little hard to pull.
Date published: 2020-09-20
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beautiful design and features We have had this faucet for a month. It was easy to install, but even better is the beautiful design, “splashless” and forceful spray, and truly stainless and spotless finish. Couldn’t be happier! Highly recommended.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Attractive and So Functional We bought this as part of a kitchen re-do. It goes so well with our dark stainless steel appliances and brushed nickel door hardware. We love the variety of streams / sprays available. Being able to use the head as a hand sprayer is very convenient. And the ease of regulating the water flow fate proves very handy.

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.

Asked by: jdog
Hello jdog, Thank you for your question. The hose assembly of the Delta Leland Pull-down Kitchen 9178-AR-DST faucet is made out of woven nylon and has an Ultracore inner lining.

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
