Beautiful, great quality, great price!

I don't write many reviews. But I felt the need for this crane. This is for people who care about overall quality. I bought nice cheap faucets which turned out to be a waste of money. So I mostly stick with the more expensive brands. But I liked the simple style of this faucet. At the price of 1/2-1/3 others and based on the features and reviews I decided to give this one a try. (Worst case I would send it back and start over.) This faucet exceeded my expectations in every way! Beautiful, cheap and top quality! Very nice surprise and great price! Solid brass set and very heavy. The handles work very smoothly and hold firmly in the open and closed position. (not soggy) The spout and handles have recessed O-rings to seal the top of the vanity for a clean and easy install. Pull-out drain is great! This simplifies installation, leaves a very clean look (no retractable drain handle) and eliminates potential drain leaks. Quick disconnects simplify installation and eliminate leaks. And those that are included in the package save another $ 10-15 and one more purchase or trip to the store. A few installation notes. 1) Before installing the handles, pay attention to the gap between the handle and its base. There is a very small gap when closed, which slightly increases when the handle is opened. When assembling, the sockets can be pressed against the handle on the threaded body. You are not fixed. So if your knobs don't turn after installation, that could be the reason. Just loosen the base until that little gap reappears. Problem solved. it happened to me I installed in a closed cabinet with a very narrow gap behind the sink. So it was easier for me to mount the bottom plate by turning the knob instead of the bottom plate. At the same time, the base was tightened on the handle, so the handle did not open / close. No faucet problem or major readjustment problem. But it took me a minute to realize what had happened. Just for your information. 2) There was a lot of dirt in the faucet that needed to be flushed out. The usual practice for installing a faucet is to remove the aerator, flush the faucet, and then reinstall the aerator. Make sure you do! They include a tool to remove the aerator so it only takes about 30 seconds 3) They have no flow restrictions other than an aerator. Therefore, if the water pressure is good, do not open the shut-off valves completely when rinsing! Mine splashed water all over the room when I tried it. :) Again, no faucet issue, just FYI. We have city water with a pressure regulator of 80psi. My check valves are open less than 1/8 turn to get good (non-explosive) flow. YMMV.
