Review on Delta Faucet Foundations Single-Handle Kitchen Sink Faucet, Chrome - Timeless Elegance for Your Modern Kitchen by David Romero

. I really like the gradation of the flow with the movement of the pen. It's very easy to adjust the flow from low to medium, unlike the faucet it replaced which seemed to have almost two settings of ON or OFF. Also, I didn't experience the water hammer effect that many reviewers have complained about. Maybe it's because I have air traps to prevent a problem in my lines. The only thing that struck me as unusual about this build is the method Delta uses to attach its plumbing to the base of the faucet (not the plumbing you attach, but the plumbing that connects). the base of your valve assembly). In the past, these lines were soldered directly into the faucet. It no longer seems to be the case. Now the fittings in the bottom of the faucet are apparently sealed with O-rings. The lines are free and free to rotate at the base of the crane. As an engineer, I thought this wasn't the best idea (another potential leak) but should work well enough until I started thinking what was wrong with the vegetable sprayer. If a vegetable sprayer is used, it will pull out and, if pulled far enough, will curve the spray line at the bottom of the faucet. I think if an overzealous user pulls hard enough, the line coming out of the faucet can be bent. Even if the line doesn't bend because someone has pulled the vegetable sprayer too far, the flexible connection at the base of the faucet will be "stressed" in a way that can cause leaks. To avoid this, I attached the line to my lines with three nylon zip ties. Now if someone tries to pull the vegetable sprayer beyond the available pipe length, there will be no ill effects.
