I just installed this faucet in my laundry room. Easy to do. I have one problem. The faucet is held in place by a single threaded rod at the back of the faucet. When I tighten the nut, the faucet stem is pulled slightly backward and tilted, leaving a pretty sizable gap between the faucet stem and the circular base ring (see photo). Seems like a design flaw to me. If I known before I bought, I would not have purchased this faucet.

    Wobbles even when tightened down. It appears to be where the shaft meets the base. There is movement there. It is really nice looking. ( Reason chosen from others)

      Simple, functional, and streamlined
      This faucet is simple, functional, and as advertised. It looks great and works well. My super installed the faucet with no problems. It's a bit shorter than the faucet I replaced so that's my only complaint about it.

      EXCELLET FAUCET !
      I had to change out my pull-down/spray Kitchen faucet for the third time in 15 years. I was so sick of the pull-down types leaking from various points. Decided to go with a non-pull down type, and then added a screw on spray attachment, which works beautifully. NO LEAKS, NO SIDE SPRAYS, NO WASTE OF WATER. I feel as if I have gone back in time, to a more classic type of faucet, which will probably last me 15 years without giving me any issues. I have been trendy, forward-thinking and ultra modern in my Kitchen faucet purchases over the years but, frankly, this one works better than all the other more expensive models. So, I have gone back to tried and true, and am very pleased with this faucet.

      A gentler flow faucet
      As shown in the attached picture, the Collins Single Handle Faucet from Delta is on the left side of the picture. It is my second faucet in addition to the pull-down faucet with shower in the middle. I used the pull-down faucet for a quite a while before installing the second faucet. I needed to connect my water filter to the aerator joint of the faucet whenever I use the water filter. The pull-down faucet does not have the right diameter for my water filter connector and the shower head can't be removed like simple aerator. I finally found the Collins Single Handle Faucet that fits the bill perfectly. Its aerator is very easy to remove by hand once I loosened it. My first impression was that the water felt gentle when I washed my utensils in the kitchen sink. Unlike the middle pull-down faucet, it does not create a lot water splatter while washing in the kitchen sink. The gentle flow of water is a result of a slower water flow and thus it uses less water overall. I didn't install the Collins single handle faucet myself. I needed to get the plumbers to do it for me because they had to take out all of the existing configuration of copper pipes and reconfigured it to fit in the second faucet with separate emergency shutdown valves. It cost me a little over $500 just to install not to mention about the cost of purchasing the faucet. Anyway, the plumbers did a great job to put in a new copper pipes for cold and hot water supplies to the new and existing faucets in addition to the cold water supply to the ice maker for my refrigerator. As you can see, it is a rather complicated configuration under the sink to do it myself. Another thing I like about the Collins stainless steel faucet is that it matches the color of my other stainless steel faucet nicely as seen in the picture attached.

      Great looking
      My old faucet some how rusted and the metal pitted so I was looking to replace it with the same installation settings but better quality. This one I installed myself and I am 75 years old. It took me about 15 minutes. Looks great and works great for a few months now.

      Great faucet!
      We wanted a simple faucet for our farm house kitchen that would look nice with our granite countertops and this faucet fits the bill perfectly. It does not have any of the issues we've read so much about with the pull down faucets.

      Beautiful faucet, easy as pie to install
      My 85-year-old father-in-law needed a new faucet. His "pull-out" sprayer faucet kept binding up at the base and loosening up at the pull-out. With a one-hole sink, finding the right faucet was a challenge. This one was perfect! First, it has a collar at the base, so the swivel won't lime up and bind up quickly. Second, it's low profile enough that it doesn't get in the way of the window behind the sink. And finally, the spout is fully compatible with the small add-on aerators that turn to spray with a simple pull. It comes with hoses attached. It took just a few minutes to install. Works great. Looks fantastic!!

      OK not perfect
      The directions to align the faucet to the sink hole resulted in the installation being off by 90 deg. Be aware of this before you get to far along. The input lines are a cheap plastic as opposed to a mesh reinforced rubber. which makes them a little hard to connect.. Not a big deal. This does allow them to be cut to size which may be helpful in some cases. Seems to be working OK. Would buy again.

      Faucet for portable dish washer, not.
      Bought this faucet to use in conjunction with a portable dish washer. When we opened the box it had a warning not to use it with a portable washer. Don't remember any such warning when we ordered the faucet online.

        Nice simple design and it has worked now for three months without fail or drip.. but - I had slight trouble with the mounting hardware: There is a big irregular-shaped screw-on thingy that is used to secure it to the sink. This got in the way when I tried to lower the sink (with this faucet already installed) into the countertop cut out. I already had sealer applied around the sink edges so I was in a time crunch. This washer-nut screw-on thingy kept the sink from settling flush into the opening. So, in our case, we decided to live the imperfection of having a sink that is bit higher in the back (about an 1/8 of an inch). So the water pools in the front half of our sink because of the flat bottom. We were able to fill the gap behind the sink with caulk, but our sink is forever un-even. Nothing really to complain about the faucet itself, and every installation is different so I guess it's just our poor experience.

        After I had a plumber install the faucet, I noticed it has a continual drip. I have ensured the shut handle is all the down and off although the drip continues. I am not going to pay the plumber to remove it to return it. Therefore going to deal with it. Stay away from this faucet.

        Not up to standard
        The spout and handle look great ... but that is as good as it gets. The valve does not consistently shut off, so that the spout drips until two or three attempts at shutting it off. Both the valve and the faucet base are constructed of plastic resulting in flex when moving the shutoff handle. One cannot tell when the valve is precisely centered, which is absolutely required to shut off the valve. I contacted Delta and they sent a new valve unit, but it had exactly the same issue. The product is really not acceptable for domestic use. Too bad, as Delta had always been my "go to" product for good value and reliable fixtures.

          I am so happy with this faucet. I wanted one that was all metal without any complicated plastic fittings. It replaced a faucet that was only a few years old, but I discovered the plastic fittings inside were growing black mold. I wanted one with a single handle that could be turned on with my wrist or forearm if my hands were dirty from making food, particularly if I had been handling raw chicken.
