Delta Kate Chrome Kitchen Faucet with Pull Down Sprayer and Soap Disperser, Modern Two Hole Kitchen Sink Faucet, Single Handle, Chrome 16970-SD-DST

This faucet has made me enjoy using my sink again! I went from an old standard solid angle neck kitchen faucet to this, and it has made a world of difference. The removable head is easy to remove and easy to snap back in place, with plenty of hose to get water where you need it. The faucet handle feels very nice, and I have not seen any signs of wear on it yet, though I haven't had it for too long. The switch on the head feels a little cheap, but is a solid spray/stream. It keeps it's setting, so if you don't want to be surprised by spray, make sure you turn it back to stream before leaving the kitchen. 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.

I've installed a few faucets in my time, and this one was simply the easiest to do so! The look and simplicity of the design are second to none, and the locking MagnaTite pull-down faucet is very secure and easy to pull down, re-connect, and maneuver with plenty of length. I would highly recommend this product for anyone looking for a new faucet to replace their current one with. Note, the price on this one was over $100 less than Home Depot as well. 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..

The new Delta Kate brushed nickel faucet looks great. I purchased this faucet to replace a quality 17-year-old Delta faucet for kitchen update. Removal of old faucet was arduous. Inspecting contents, no parts list, instructions in multiple languages, diagrams included another faucet application, and missing washer caused some confusion during install. After install, faucet operated well and there were no leaks which is great! However, after washing dishes, water got under faucet handle cover and it appeared like unit was leaking. I again verified, no leaks. Instructions mentioned use of 100% silicone which I applied to resolve my issue. Overall faucet quality, function, finish, fit, and soap dispenser are good. But have some long term concern with composite water lines and weighted faucet hose without metal braid. The new materials could be superior, I do not know, only time will tell. Sprayer is easy to use and water flow is excellent. Good value for the money, but noticed a slight price drop shortly after purchase and install.

This faucet is awesome! The hardest part was removing the old. Installing the new was simple and straightforward. Granted the instructions included were for the wrong faucet but easily found the correct ones online. I’m a 73 year old female who enjoys trying to do it myself. If I can install it, anyone can. Really like the way it looks and impressed with the way it functions.

That is a beautiful faucet that works perfectly. I fantastic upgrade to my kitchen. It would get 5 stars except for the installation instructions must have been written by a group of alien chimpanzees. The hardest part about installing this unit was #1 removing the old unit, #2 following the instructions that came with this unit. In the end it works out well, you just need to be patient, use common sense and be prepared to figure things out on your own.

I had this faucet before and could not find another one locally. Amazon to the rescue!! The plumber put it in no problem, and it works great. I love the soap dispenser and sprayer.

Looks great at my kitchen sink. Had one before which lasted for about 20 years. Recently started to leak, so I decided to buy another one. There are a few changes on the newer model. Like the little button that changes from stream to spray, and the way the hose retracts, and closes with a magnet. Like the brushed finish on the stainless steel tap and matching soap dispenser. A classy looking tap!

Update: faucet still works great, Amazon customer service not so much. A little over a week after purchasing and having installed the faucet, the price dropped $150 CAD and the only option Amazon could offer was for me to order again and return the one I just purchased and installed. This is completely unnecessary, my time and effort to remove and repackage.....shipping costs.....not to mention the carbon footprint this pricing policy must result in, and product shrinkage as well. Amazon should reconsider. Word of advice, consider going to a box store for these types of expensive purchases, they will be more likely to honour a 30 day price match. Last time I buy something like this from amazon, and have $300 worth in a cart ready to purchase but now I will go elsewhere! Great faucet, very simple installation. Looks great and good quality construction. My only two issues are that the I’m very disappointed that the soap dispenser head is not stainless steel, it is plastic, and the bottle opening is very small so it takes forever to fill from the top without going under the sink to remove the bottle which I don’t think they intend you to have to do. The other issue is the water temperature adjustment does not have a large range of motion and this is very touchy to get the water temp you are looking for, not great for little kids. Otherwise the fit and finish on the faucet and lever are top notch, it looks amazing, and install was very easy and straight forward. My wife is ecstatic with it.

Easy to install, works great. It is stylish, functional and worth every penny

Nice product. Delta definitely has it together on products. Constantly reviewing other sources but always select Delta. they just work well and don't leak, drip, spot. Thank you.
