Review on 🚿 Effortless Elegance: Cassidy Single Handle Bathroom Assembly 597LF MPU by Joe Glass

I purchased this chrome plated faucet from Delta. First impression, high quality, hard wearing and nice chrome plating. I love this faucet and it works like a champ. There were no problems installing it, but the problem was with the instructions. Two solid copper pipes protrude from the bottom of the faucet and connect the hot/cold water lines. One copper pipe is shorter than the other, and the instructions don't indicate which pipe is for hot or cold water, and the pipes aren't labeled hot/cold or red/blue. I wanted to install this single lever mixer so that cold water flows when the handle is pulled out and pointed towards the person and hot water flows when the handle is pushed against the wall. (Which makes sense if you have young children). Other buyers have told me that the shorter pipe is for hot water and that the hot water turns on when the handle is pressed against the wall. (exactly how I wanted it to work). So I installed it like this and it works fine. Then a week after I contacted Delta customer service, they replied with an email that hot water should be turned on by pulling the handle towards the person and if you change the connection (like I set them up) you risk damaging the faucet. It just doesn't make sense that you're paying close to $170 for a faucet and they're missing this vital info from the manual. Well I'd rather risk damaging this faucet than burning my baby with hot water so I'll leave it as I installed it. In any case, I will not use hot water. As I said before, I love this faucet for its looks, quality and performance. I would give this faucet 5 stars, but since Delta doesn't mention important information about proper installation and risk of damage, I'm giving it 4 stars. I hope this review is helpful to others who have purchased or purchased this faucet.
