Product Description
Product Description
The pull-down spray wand comes free with a gentle tug and gives you total flexibility. The hose extends and retracts without friction points, fed by gravity. As you raise the wand to dock it, the magnet embedded in the spout pulls the wand precisely into place. So, unlike other pull-downs that tend to droop over time, MagnaTite® keeps your pull-down faucet looking picture-perfect. Delta's exclusive DIAMOND Seal® Technology uses a valve with a tough diamond coating. InnoFlex® PEX waterways keep water inside the faucet out of contact with potential metal contaminants. This powerful combination brings you a faucet built to last up to five million uses. Only Delta faucets are equipped with Touch-Clean® soft, rubber nubbins that allow you to easily wipe away calcium and lime build-up with the touch of a finger.

Delta's exclusive DIAMOND(TM) Seal Technology uses a valve with a tough diamond coating to bring you a faucet built to last up to 5 million uses - plus it keeps water inside the faucet out of contact with potential metal contaminants.

Just a couple points of constructive criticism and by no means a deal-breaker... Make sure to double-check the distance and placement for your hot and cold water supplies in relation to which pre-drilled hole in your counter top you intend to insert the control valve in.. One of mine was just in reach, but since the supply lines to the faucet are hard plastic, they don't have as much give and flexibility if you try to stretch these too far or connect at less than a 90 degree angle. The supply tubes look to be about 36" in length from the stem of the control valve underneath the sink to the supply connection. Should be more than ample enough for most installations. More flexible braided supply hoses might have been a better choice for those trickier installations, but I am sure this isn't a problem for most.
Second, the warm water from this unit (full 90 degree up-right position of the handle) was a bit too hot. The installation instructions reference a switch in the control valve to help avoid hot water scalding, but it is really just a 'limiter' in that it will not allow you to fully open the hot water side. When the little orange switch on the top of the valve is moved to the right position (not default) the faucet handle can only be turned up in a 90 degree position for warm water, or about 45 degrees to the right for cold. If you need hot water for those occasions when cleaning off dishes, you will likely need to break out a scrubber instead. A better solution may be to leave the switch in the default position, and control the amount of hot water coming from the supply line by closing off the valve little by little until you get to a comfortable temperature in the warm water position.
All in all, a great faucet and I would highly recommend it for it's simplicity of installation, elegant and sturdy design, and ease of operation..
This replaced a 15 year old Delta faucet that eventually wasn't worth repairing.
Installing this is NOT hard if you are reasonably handy. You need no special tools. A screwdriver, a hex wrench and a weird little wrench for one nut, which is included.
The instructions are a case study in how to convey information with as few words and images as possible. However, they are entirely complete with no more or less than is needed. The images are very small. I suggest that you download the instructions as a PDF, and look at them on a full size monitor. If you "get it", proceed, if you don't, call a plumber.
Also, be sure that you can physically reach the area under the sink AND you can remove the old faucet! BEWARE that older faucets sometimes require special tools to turn the mounting nuts and they might be rusted in place.
Pro tip: turn off the hot and cold shut off valves before removing the old faucet and make sure they completely shut off the water by watching if your old faucet drips with the valves closed. Old valves sometimes won't close completely. You must know this before removing the old faucet.
It installed very easily, though I did run into a bit of a problem aligning it at first. I didn't move the valve piece back far enough in the sink cutout, which led to the front of the assembly sticking up from the sink. Once I loosened and re-positioned, everything sat flush on the sink, and I haven't had any problems since.
This unit has plastic pipes going into the valve assembly instead of copper, and the pipes are very stiff. Make sure that you will have enough room to move the piping around a bit while you are installing it. I had to work around my supply pipes, which was a little tricky, but worked out in the end.
The soap dispenser bit was a nice add-in, but it feels incredibly cheap. Very light plastic and no heft of any sort to the pump mechanism. I won't be using ti long though, as I will be replacing it with an air-gap switch for my disposal.
