The instructions are pretty much worthless, I am a fairly handy do it yourself or, and without general knowledge of how to install things like this, it would’ve been impossible.The connections for the supply lines from the wall are very finicky, when you try and tighten down the faucet control knobs, it causes the supplied brass connectors to twist out of alignment, making the vertical pipe go out of plumb.Inexplicably, there is no way to mount the flexible hose do the vertical supply pipe. By this I mean the handheld wand has nowhere to be mounted when not in use.Be aware that some of the fittings are reverse thread.It is very difficult to determine the length your supply line needs to be because the brass fittings change the distance from the supply line to the faucet handle - because of that I had to cut the decorative trim ring So that it would actually thread on to the brass fitting.All of the fittings leaked significantly after my first attempt at installing it, which required taking it all apart and applying new pipe tape to every single joint, and Starting over.

Pros
  • Great
Cons
  • Not suitable for low water pressure homes
