Rated 1 out of 5 by from Not happy with this faucet This faucet is very difficult to get the water to turn off. The handle has to be in the exact right position or the faucet drips. Now, the head of the faucet is having issues and the water flow is not coming out as strongly as it should be. It is also difficult to get the water temperature correct. I would have returned it if it wasn't so difficult to install.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good Faucet This faucet is better than my previous Delta kitchen faucet. It's stainless steel, and it looks good. Now I need to get an updated kitchen sink to match the faucet. The water pressure, however, seems to be a little less than my other one. I like the decorative style of this faucet.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lovely faucet Our plumber said we needed a new faucet and he had this one on his truck. Now we have’s more water pressure than we ever had and we feel like we are living in luxury. Great faucet- especially if you have one of those old ones where the sprayer is separate.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Disappointed I liked my older cheaper one better. The buttons for spray are too easy to push accidentally, the faucet head is too low, neither spray is useful to me, and there is only one flow selection for the non-spray mode. I like the non-spot finish, but that's it. Would not buy it again for those reasons.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Looks nice but quality is lacking The faucet looks nice and the spray nozzle works perfect. The cons have been that it’s hard to shut off completely and will drip unless it’s shut off from the cold side. It started squeaking when it was turned off and on about 2 months after install.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from So disappointed in this product I purchased this faucet 18 months ago. I have replaced the cartridge once already and now the faucet is doing the same thing. When you shut it off it still drips. Delta did send out a new cartridge right away but I am going to have to replace it every 6-9 months. That is not acceptable

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good faucet The problem I have with this faucet is the range of movement is so small that it is difficult to adjust the water temperature between hot and cold - it is either hot or cold.

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 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.

Q&A

What is the difference between stainless steel finish, and artic finish. I am interested in the Leland faucet. Thank you

Asked by: Bosco
Hi Bosco, Thank you for your question. There is a slight difference in the finishes of Artic Stainless and Stainless Steel. Artic Stainless more closely resembles the stainless steel appliances that are available for the kitchens in todays markets. It has a bluish tint to it. Stainless Steel has a golder tone to it and more closely matches finishes in the bathroom. Thanks, Dave

What size holes should be cut in my countertop to accommodate the spout, handle and soap dipenser?

Soap dispenser leaks from the spout. How can I fix this?

I did not install this faucet, it was in place when I bought my apartment but looks fairly new and the faucet works like a charm! However the soap dispenser needs to be pumped 4-5 times for soap to come out (the bottle is full of soap) and then after dispensing, it slowly leaks onto the sink. How can this be fixed? Thank you!
Asked by: Marin
Hi Marin, We are sorry that you are experiencing a problem with your soap dispenser. It sounds like the pump assembly is not working properly. Unfortunately the pump assembly is not available as a separate item. The entire RP50813 soap dispenser will need to be replaced. Thanks, Dave

I would like to take off the faucet head because it has begun to spray - I assume build up is inside the head. I see the little piece you can push in but it doesn't want to come apart from the hose easily. Is there a trick to take the head off?

Asked by: Christy
Hello Chritsy, Thank you for your inquiry! The wand/sprayer assembly of the Delta Leland Pull-Down Kitchen 978-AR-DST faucet, an be remove by simply unscrewing it from the end of the hose assembly. This should be done by hand only. Best regards, Tanya

The spec indicates a min clearance of 2.5 inches from center of hole for faucet to backsplash. I only have 2 inches.  Why is 2.5 inches needed since the handle goes forward and not back? Will 2 inches work? 

Asked by: Bridget
Thank you for your question, Bridget! The minimum clearance to the back splash is typically suggested for lavatory models with lift rods or for models where the handle does reach backwards. This is still suggested for maximum comfort and ease of use with the handle; however this model can still work with only 2". Best regards, Edward

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
