I couldnt be happier with this faucet unit.
It was very well packaged, super easy to install with no drips (plumbing aint what it used to be!) and all functions work excellently.
I had this matte black faucet, a matching spare hole cover plate, a matching detergent pump dispenser and a matching dishwasher vent cover all installed on my counter top in about an hour. (Including disassembly of the old fittings clean/up.)
Wifey also delighted, as these matte black fittings look very modern and have dressed/up our kitchen.
I dont know yet how the matte finish will hold up to wear and tear, but to be safe we wont be using any abrasive cleaning products on it.
If I have one gripe, its the unsophisticated mechanism for retracting the hose and spray head. It uses a weight to pull the hose head back up. This system has always annoyed me, because inevitably the weight interferes with whatever you might be storing under the sink as it moves up and down. In my case, the weight needed careful height setting to avoid thumping against a wooden support shelf. But this retraction mechanism is consistent with many other brands faucets so I will certainly not deduct a star for that.
I have no hesitation recommending this product.
Delighted. Dont think twice.
