We've had our faucet for a few months now and have been very happy with it. It swivels around, so we can rest a coffee pot on the counter and fill it...which is very convenient. It was MUCH less expensive than any other faucet with the same look. The only negative is that we have it installed an inch from the edge of the sink and it doesn't reach as far as we'd like. In the picture you can see the vertical bar, and it would be better even an inch or so longer. Fortunately, you can take it out of the holder to make it reach farther. You don't always have an available hand to do that, when you're holding a heavy pot. Overall, still very happy with it!

I have had this kitchen faucet for over 2 years, and I currently rent the house it is in and after I fixed the problem with the leak, it has not leaked ever since a single time. The finish is really nice and it's heavy. The spray head can be moved to the left and right to cover your 2 sink areas, but the "coil" part is comepletely stiff and will not bend or move. I am giving 2 stars because (1) I had to fix a leak in it myself because the O-ring was never seated properly from the maufacturer (2) it doesnt have the mobility I thought it would. Originally when it arrived, it leaked where the vertical shaft meets the larger base area and my plumber could not stop the leaking. instead of mailing it back, I took it apart, which is a little tricky but as I recall there are some tiny set screws. It turns out that I did not receive a new product, but a previously used one based on the evidence I saw when i opened it. But instead of returining it- I decided to see if I could fix it and use it. The reason it was leaking was because there had been water sitting in for some time causing some greenish crud/corrosion where the rubber o-ring is and also the o-ring was not seated properly which is why the previous owners probably returned it because it leaked for them too. I thouroughly cleaned out the crud and re-seated the o-ring, and re-installed. It did not leak after that, and I've had no complaints from the renters of any leaks to it. However, a normal homeowner would not have spent the hours figuring out how to disassemble the whole thing and re-seat the seal. But it was easy to assemble/disassemble once i figured it out and if the o-ring ever wears out and leaks, I will know exactly how to replace it. Another issue is the inability to move/ swivel it - you can not bend that coil part at all - it's Solid. Think of the faucet as being a solid loop at the top but instead of a solid curved shaft you see on other faucets, they use the curled metal wrap for "design" - but it will not bend just like a curved solid faucet will not bend in the "C" curve at the top which is fine since that is how all of these faucets work. You can unhook the sprayer and move it to the left and right sinks just fine, but from the picture I assumed wrongly that the spring looking part was flexible - it is not.
