PRODUCT FEATURES
Touch it on. Touch it off. Whether you have two full hands or 10 messy fingers, Delta® Touch2O® Technology helps keep your faucet clean, even when your hands aren’t. A simple touch anywhere on the spout or handle with your wrist or forearm activates the flow of water at the temperature where your handle is set. The Delta TempSense™ LED light changes color to alert you to the water’s temperature and eliminate any possible surprises or discomfort. 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. Delta® faucets with DIAMOND™ Seal Technology perform like new for life with a patented design which reduces leak points, is less hassle to install and lasts twice as long as the industry standard*. 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 5 out of 5 by from Easy to use and beautiful. I bought this when I replaced my countertops, and I absolutely love it. The touch feature is so much better than the wave feature on other faucets. Don’t hesitate. Buy it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Touch feature is a better feature than expected We ordered this in lieu of replacing a worn part in our original kitchen faucet. Installation was simple with clear directions. Delta warranty is outstanding. I will add voice activation module ain't worth the trouble.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from No Touch Faucet Bought faucet a month ago. Spent a bit more to get the touch on/off feature. It has work off and on over the first few weeks then I had to resort to disconnecting the batteries and reconnecting to get it to work. Now we just use the lever the touch feature has died. Tried contacting service but couldn't get anyone to pick up. So I sent emails still wait for a response to them.................... been weeks. Should have bought a Moen

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Beautiful faucet, great idea, flawed product. I loved this faucet when we first got it. It was exactly what I was looking for in the kitchen, no more germ covered hands on the faucet and it was working great for the first two months. Then it started shutting off randomly. We replaced the batteries as needed and even with brand new batteries we are still having the issues. Turn the faucet on and it shuts right off. In the middle of washing a dish and the hot water shuts off. Washing your hands and the water turns off. VERY frustrating. Getting ready to disconnect the touch feature and just use it as a normal faucet...a very pricey normal faucet!!!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Love this faucet! We love this faucet! Didnt take long to get used to the convenience of the "touch" feature. Never have to turn the water on with messy hands, just touch faucet with your wrist or back of you hand. However, after being in our new house for less than a year, the touch feature stopped working out of nowhere;the solinoid had to be replaced. I spoke with Delta customer service and was sent the replacement part within a few days. Very easy fix, but and worried how long this one will last.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great faucet We bought this faucet and have used it for several weeks. It replaced a newer faucet that had terrible water pressure. This faucet has great water pressure and cleans things well. It is easy to clean because it has an anti-fingerprint finish. We love this faucet and would highly recommend it.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Flaky features I really wanted to love this faucet, but it's had a lot of trouble. It looks great and the water pressure and touch-function is fine. It does seem to burn through batteries quickly, but I can live with that. I had it professionally installed, but after a few months the LED stopped working when the water was cold. Then a few weeks later it stopped when it was hot. I talked to Delta and we tried to troubleshoot it, but ultimately Delta replaced the solenoid. That unfortunately meant completely uninstalling the faucet, which I paid a plumber to do...again. A few months later the LED stopped working for cold water again. I decided to ignore it since it still warns when it's hot. But now the faucet takes forever to change temperature. I'll push the lever from cold to hot, and then need to pull it back and press it to hot a few times to get the temperature to change.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from One serious flaw This faucet was part of a total kitchen remodel. Almost immediately the water flow rate fell off to a near trickle. Cleaning the head restored the flow rate but it again quickly slowed to a trickle. Now we have to remove it and clean it twice a week or more. I know it's the head because we can remove it and get great flow from just the hose. Very disappointed Delta. I can get a Moan that won't clog up for a fraction of the price. And YES! The house has a whole house filtration system.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Love my new faucet with longer reach I was looking for a faucet a little longer to save my back from leaning forward at my farm house sink. I love that it is touch activated but it is a little sensitive and sometimes it turns off by mistake. The only thing I would change is water pressure is much softer than my old one.
Date published: 2019-07-31
Rated 1 out of 5 by from Worked really nice for 60 Days Took a chance and bought this very expensive faucet about 90 days ago even though I read some of the customer reviews where people were complaining about the faucet turning on and off randomly when it was turned off. Initially I didn't have any issues but this particular problem started after about 60 days and I thought maybe I needed to change the batteries in the cabinet below but that didn't help one bit. I regret getting this because I feel it will turn on in the middle of the night or when I'm not home. So far I've gotten no answers from Delta but would appreciate some help.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Doesn’t work The faucet frequently turns off mid use without touching it and it burns through batteries. When the battery dies the faucet is not able to be used at all, not just the touch feature.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great look and features We're happy we chose this faucet for our new home 2 years ago. Delta's warranty is one of the best as they stand 100 percent behind their product.
Date published: 2019-06-24
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very satisfied, thus far! After doing extensive research on a replacement kitchen faucet, I decided on this one from Delta. Initially, I was looking into a touch-free faucet which cost about $100 more, but decided against this after reading customer reviews that if the power went out the faucet would not operate. So, I decided to go with the Delta '9178T-AR-DST Touch2O' based on Delta's reputation, the faucet's features including the magnetic docking faucet head, diamond water seal, and touch on/off control. Before making my purchase, I also read many reviews from other buyers of this faucet to get their feedback on their experiences and any recommendations they shared. Three very helpful suggestions were to zip-tie the coupling clips to ensure they would not unintentionally pop off. Also, the use of an outer hose to fit over the faucet water line prior to flushing the faucet which would give better control of catching the rinse water into a bucket outside of the sink cabinet to keep it dry. Finally, purchasing the optional plug-in power supply adapter was recommended by several buyers who said that it made the responsiveness of the "touch on/off" feature of the faucet more consistently reliable without the need to fumble with replacing batteries. All these suggestions were quite helpful for me. As for the operation of the faucet that I installed about a month ago, I am very satisfied! The instruction manual and on-line Delta manufacturer's video helped prepare me for a straight-forward and clean installation. All of the faucet's features are working as advertised and expected. The weakest feature that I have experienced is the "shield spray" which is both weaker in operation than I would have preferred and must be held very close to whatever I am spraying to avoid splashing; otherwise, "shield spray" doesn't reduce splashing much more than the other operating spray functions do. I also wish that the plug-in solenoid power adapter was included with the faucet when you buy it rather than the battery pack feature as a matter of convenience, but I understand that not all purchasers of this faucet necessarily have an electric outlet located under their sink as I do and that the battery pack is their only option. Finally, the tubular specialty wrench that is included to secure the faucet to the counter top is a true blessing to have and made the 'trickiest' part of my installation so much easier. Time will tell whether or not the "Leland Touch2O" I purchased will live up to Delta's promises. At this point, I feel as though the quality of the product and its components will stand the test of time. Should I need future warranty assistance, I trust that Delta's customer service representatives and Delta will stand behind this product.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Beautiful, Quality Made Faucet I've had this faucet about three months, and it's a beautiful and well made as I expected from Delta. Its only flaw is inconsistency in the touch feature. Most of the time it works as designed, but sometimes the touch feature does not respond, and other times it's way too sensitive. All members of our family have the same experience. At first I considered exchanging the faucet; but overall I like it well enough to put up with this one weakness.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great features Just installed this last week but I'm delighted with it. Love the dish spray feature and being able to pull the sprayer into the sink.
Date published: 2019-05-06
Rated 1 out of 5 by from Not What Was Expected We bought this faucet a month ago and unfortunately the shield spray feature that we paid about $100.00 extra for is simply not what is advertised or promoted. First, the water pressure with the entire faucet is much weaker than our previous faucet which makes it hard to wash food away. Because of that, the shield spray feature doesn't actually provide additional assistance to actually wash food away. Additionally, the 'shield' on the shield spray doesn't form a large circle as advertised. It may be a defect in our faucet but it still causes spraying.
Date published: 2019-04-29
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Outstanding Products and fantastic customer servic I bought a faucet about 6 or 7 weeks ago and got busy and couldn't get it put in right away so I didn't know how good or bad the product was going to be at time of installation. This is a great product and works beyond my expectations. I did have a issue with a solenoid and Delta sent a replacement out without question. Unbelievable customer service, I identify the problem and have the replacement parts here within days.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Convenient! Beautiful! I love this faucet! Touch anywhere on the neck or the lever and the water goes on and off. The sprayer head does not turn it on or off, which is wonderful. I got the spotless version and it is! I have been using it for a couple of weeks and I have not had to "clean" it or wipe it down for prints or water stains and we have hard water. I would highly recommend this faucet. We bought the cord separately to plug it in to the outlet instead of thinking about replacing batteries. We had the electrician add more outlets under the sink to be able to use it this way.

Can I rotate the on/off handle portion to the front to use? My backsplash is too close to rotate the hold cold lever when it's turned on.

Asked by: Nate
Hi, Nate! Thank you for your question. The minimum clearance to back splash for the Delta 9178T-RB-DST is 2 1/2&quot; (64 mm). We recommend installing this faucet with the handle on the right. You may install it with the handle on the front, but the temperature adjustment will be opposite of the standard operation for single handle faucets. You could compensate for this by swapping the hot and cold supply lines under the sink. However, the red/blue button on the handle will no longer indicate the correct temperature. Best Regards, Rosanna

Most single handle kitchen faucets have the handle on the right. &nbsp;Are there any Delta kitchen faucets that come with a handle on the left

Asked by: kmel
Hello Kmel, Thank you for your question. We recommend installing the side mounted handled faucets with the handle on the right. You may install it with the handle on the front or left side, but the temperature adjustment will be opposite of the standard operation for single handle faucets. You can compensate for this by swapping the hot and cold supply lines under the sink. However, the red/blue button will no longer indicate the correct temperature. Best regards, Tanya

Can you recommend a drain that would match the bronze finish?

Asked by: Lisa
Hello Lisa, Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, Delta does not manufacture any kitchen drain assemblies in the Venetian Bronze finish at this time, that would work with the Leland Touch2O Pull-Down Kitchen 9178T-RB-DST faucet. Best regards, Tanya

My faucet has a low water flow. How do I increase the pressure?

Asked by: Ken
Hi, Ken! Thank you for your question. The faucet gives a 1.8 gpm. If you are getting less than a 1.8 gpm flow rate, we recommend to flush the line to make sure no debris is clogging the sprayer. You can also soak the sprayer in a solution of 50% white vinegar and 50% water mixture for an hour to clean. If you need any assistance with this, please call our Delta customer Service line at (800)345-3358. We are available Monday-Friday, 7am-7pm CST and Saturday, 8am-5pm, CST. Best Regards, Rosanna

How is the temperature controlled. I am assuming the touch only turns on and off and the temp was the last selected

Asked by: Norma
Hi, Norma! Thank you for your question. The Delta 9178T-RB-DST faucet temperature is controlled with by the handle manually. The touch function turns the water on and off for the faucet. Best Regards, Rosanna

Is there an owner's manual or a user's manual for the Delta 9178T-RB-DST Touch 20 Kitchen Faucet? I do not mean a very technical document for a professional installer like the Maintenance &amp; Installation Sheet or the Technical Specifications Sheet.

2 questions - Does the touch on/off work if the faucet handle is in the off position, the on position or both? &nbsp;If the handle is in the off position, at what temperature setting does the water come on?

Asked by: Rishty
Hi, Rishty! Thank you for your question. The touch function for the Delta 9178T-RB-DST Faucet will only work with the handle in the 'on' position as this allows water to travel through the faucet. Best Regards, Rosanna
