Clean and it just works.
I love this drained paired with our new Cassidy wall mount faucets. It is just such a clean look and they both work great. Plus customer service is second to none.

Did not solve my problem
I purchased this pop up drain assembly kit on the advice of Delta in an attempt to solve a problem with a Delta faucet installation. In new construction, the lift rod on the faucet was nearly unusable because the faucet was installed too close to the granite backsplash. This product was to replace the current drain and eliminate the need to use the lift rod.
The drain itself is well made but the round plug is much too large to look right in a sink. It might look fine for a bathtub installation. I can't understand why Delta would recommend this item for use in a sink. They need to make available a size that is better suited for lavatory sinks.

Lovely Faucet
This was installed in a new powder room over a vessel sink. It looks very stylist and the polished nickel finish is lovely

Inconsistent product
I installed a Delta pop-up drain on a bathroom sink with no problems, so I purchased 2 more for my other 2 bathrooms with identical sinks. However, unlike the first the second leakes from both top nut holding the drain to the sink as well as the lower fitting down pipe. Also, when the domed cap in the sink is screwed tight the pop-up doesn't engage. If I loosen it a bit it engages, but doesn't release. To get if to work I have to unscrew it a complete turn and then it wobbles. I tried both new pop-ups and they are both the same. I even took the chrome cap and pop-up assembly from the good sink, but it didn't work in the second drain assembly. I can live with the loose cap and will now try plumbers tape to fix the leak.

May or may not need to purchase
Depending on which parts you buy, you may or may not need to buy the pop-up separately. It is important to know that going in so that if you hired someone to come out, they have what they need. Luckily, I checked ahead of time and didn't need to worry about that. But I could easily see this being an issue for someone since Delta products are not always labeled as clearly as they should be--though the website does give alerts as to required additional parts (from my experience). Sleek look. Matches the other champagne color from Delta perfectly--can't tell they were purchased separately.

Is there a height adjustment for the pop up, it seems really high in the bowl when not pushed in the close position?
Hi, Jaaa!
Thank you for your question. The Delta Push Pop-Up with Overflow 72173-RB does not have a height adjustment for the push up stopper assembly.

Can Purchase just the Cap, it has become so discolored over the years. Don't need the whole assembly. Thanks
Hi!
Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, the cap is not a replaceable part by itself. If the cap is needed, we would recommend to replace the whole drain assembly.
Best Regards,

Why does this come in matte black?
I don't understand why this wouldn't come in matte black when you sell faucets in matte black. Seems I can only get with overflow holes?
Hi, Michele.
Thank you for your question. At this time, we do not have the 72173 in a Matte Black finish.

I have the Delta Push Pop 72173, and my cleaning person pulled the pop up part out....how do I put it back in?
Hi Dogma,
Thank you for your question. The cap will screw onto the brass piece and the brass piece will screw into the flange.
Best regards,
Jon

Correct orientation of upper seal for 72173 push pop drain w/ overflow
What is the correct orientation/location for the upper seal of the 72173 push pop drain assembly? The shape of the upper seal gives impression that it should be installed into the sink's drain/overflow cavity by itself and then have the drain body passed through it ... or should it stay up against the flange (entire seal) so that both surfaces of the seal are between sink base and the flange?
Dear How-to,
Thank you for your inquiry! The top gasket of the Delta Push Pop-Up 72173 should sit directly under the lip of the flange assembly. The gasket should provide a water tight seal in most applications.
Best regards,
Tanya

Will the 72173 push pop up w overflow work with Koehler K2214 sink
Just want to make sure this one will work with my sink. I have read some reviews on websites that complain the thread section is a little too short or the drain hole diameteris a problem. Please verify it will work with Kohler K2144.
Thank you.
Hi Jayarek,
Thank you for your question. The flange has a diameter of 1 5/8" between the gaskets.
Technical Specifications:

Please refer to the specifications for the sink to verify that it will work.
Best regards,

Is there a pop-up drain like the 72173 with 1" longer threaded section?
I need a deeper (longer) threaded area than the 72173 has. That threaded section is 3" and my vessel sink bottom to the underside of the countertop is just slightly more than 3". Hopefully you have a model that has a longer threaded section or can suggest a way to extend the threaded section. I really don't want to have to grind the underside of the countertop, but that will be the option of last choice, if no other option is available. Thanks.
Dear Oldclyde,
Thank youf ro your question. Delta does not make a longer or different threaded drain body for the Delta Push Pop-Up Drain assembly 72173. All Delta drain assemblies fit sinks with standard 1 5/8"drain hole size.
