Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Installed this faucet and soap dispenser about 6 months ago, pretty easy. It looks pretty attractive, and is easy to control the flow with the spray and two power settings in the handle.
That's about all the good I can say about it.
It is supposedly "leak-proof", but has become very difficult to shut off. Most of the time it dribbles or at least drips when you shut it off, until you push firmly down on it with the handle exactly centered. Usually takes a couple of tries to get it right.
The temperature is very difficult to control. Which is to say the mixing is uneven. If you set the handle at a particular angle and it's not quite hot enough, and you move it a sixteenth of an inch towards the left, rather than incrementally warming, it may well be suddenly scalding. Or, you can leave it at a set angle between hot and cold, but decide you want to change the flow rate and move it up or down and again have a tremendous temperature swing, either to hot or cold.
Mostly this is just annoying, albeit occasionally painful, but it's more than annoying when you're trying to bathe a newborn in a tub in the sink. I haven't scalded the kid, but the kid has gotten a couple squirts of icy cold water to liven things up.
I called Delta about my complaints. I got through very quickly and was told the cartridge has a lifetime no leak guarantee. They are sending me a new one and gave me detailed instructions on how to change it. They said that this would also solve the temperature control issue. Hopefully so.
Had it not been for their excellent customer service, I would probably have given the faucet one star because of having been scalded so many times.
-The soap dispenser works fine, and is easy to refill. It does feel kind of plastic and cheap and I'm doubtful that it will last more than a couple of years. It's also unfortunate that although the faucet base is nice solid metal, the wand portion is plastic.
