This faucet set rocks! It feels substantial in weight and the output of water is really forceful. I was going to get the faucet that just had the sprayer, but decided to get this one that also has the faucet and am so glad I did - I use both features on a regular basis. The sprayer has a latch on the lever so that it constantly stays on, or you can press the lever manually. I originally got this for my paint studio, and had it 6 months. Now I am getting ready to order another one for our kitchen. Great value and great product. Yay Kraus!
I just installed this faucet yesterday, I have had it 3 weeks now but just installed and used it last night and it works and looks better than I could ever imagined! The main reason I bought THIS faucet was the great reviews so here is another one. Long story short. I am finally almost finished with a long awaited kitchen remodel, that I am doing 90% of the work myself including the plumbing. My wife and I both cook a lot and entertain often, and my brother in-law is an executive chef. So when deciding on design and style I was very picky and wanted the best but did not want to spend a ton of money. This faucet is by far the best deal out there for this style! it arrived Quickly, Packaged professionally in foam to keep all parts from getting scratched, and is made to last a life time! It even comes with braided water lines! It is heavy duty chrome plated solid brass with no plastic cheapness like you find in the big box stores and it is a very simple install. The soap dispenser is also top notch chrome plated solid brass. ONE thing I don't think I would recommend, is mounting this faucet on any counter that is not in top notch shape and solid!!!!! (My Counter is Granite) The faucet is heavy and with this style you are pulling it down into the sink. think about it! Also some reviews said it would not reach the bottom of there sink, well I have a 9" deep and a 7" deep sink it will touch the bottom!!! And the water pressure is awesome!!!!!!!!!! I Hope This Helps! GREAT PRODUCT, AND TOTALLY IMPRESSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We absolutely love the the faucet. It is very sturdy. One of the benefits I discovered is I tend to use less water because I only activate the shower handle when I'm ready to rinse. The only thing I didn't care for is the soap dispenser is flimsy. The soap dispenser handle appears to be chrome plated plastic and doesn't seat well on the granite countertop.

Great faucet for the price. High quality, Easy Install. Recommend using a 1 1/4" Holesaw for the faucet opening in the countertop. This will provide a tighter mounting surface for the single nut at the bottom. once installed and tightened up, it seems very solid and secure. Many compliments!

Finally as great faucet for my kitchen. Our last on looked good but the flow restrictor made it extremely frustrating and the head could not be pulled out enough to really spray the right direction. This commercial faucet is awesome. Note: this faucet is very heavy, so my flimsy sink allows it to sway back and forth. Krause doesn't seem to have a stabilizing arm, so I went to the plumbing supply house and ordered a wall support kit for freestanding supply lines, and will wing it. Price 50 bucks.

Title says it all! Great product! The only thing I worry about is that because of it's height, if you pulled on it in any direction, the torque would be so great that I fear damage could occur to the mount or the granite.

After a month using the products, I'm very please with my choice... everything is well built and feels solid. There is no "fake" metal parts, everything that's shiny on the picture is solid metal. Impressive! One exception: the soap dispenser bottle. It's made of cheap plastic and looks like it could easily break. The installation manual could be improved A LOT. It explains how to assemble the faucet in about 10 lines... some parts in the box are not even mentioned, or the instructions are very vague. For instance, a metal ring goes between the faucet base and the counter top but the instructions don't say which way (it's not symmetric). Also, a rubber washer/joint needs to be attached to the ring but this is not mentioned (I figured out because the washer was not mentioned anywhere else in the manual and there's a groove for it in the ring). It's not a big deal, you have to use your head and you get it installed fine but I must say I was a bit hesitant, not being sure I was doing it right.

I cannot put in words how much I love this faucet. It is a showpiece. The only downside is the spout splashes water onto my granite countertop. If the spout was a bit lower, this problem might not be an issue.

Remodeled my kitchen (well it started with needing a new garbage disposal and snowballed from there), and bought this faucet because is was different and unique. Plumber who put it in said that it was a well engineered German faucet. I love this faucet so much because of the options of either using the sprayer, or a separate nozzle and the ability to switch them around from left to right. I'm taking it with me when I move, I will never find another one like this one. Beats anything you can get at the local home improvement store and gives my kitchen the "wow" factor.

A great piece to update your kitchen. It gives the whole kitchen a modern trendy look. The hard ware is substantial and a good value to combine with the soap dispenser. A good buy for us.

I was very surprised by the height of the faucet, and pleased by it's weight. It appears to be very well made and is very attractive. I wanted to have a "bling-bling" look in the kitchen of my newly built house, and this definitely makes a statement. If you don't want to look like everyone else on the street, then consider this faucet. The water is not hooked up yet, so I can't comment on that.

I love this faucet! The hose was firmer than I liked at first but it was given a little now and works beautifully. The pressure is great and the little handle controls both the pressure and can be used to turn the entire faucet on and off in addition to the larger lever on the side that controls hot/cold. It is a statement piece for sure!!!!

Love this faucet. Actually was going to return it when I first opened the box because, yes, it is LARGE! Don't be shocked! I read the reviews, and was still shocked at how large this thing is...I mean LARGE!!! We have a small kitchen, but have 9 ft ceilings and high cabinets, so it looks amazing! In remodeling our kitchen, we put in granite countertops with a full granite backsplash to enhance the height which helped a lot! When we just had the little 4" backsplash it looked a little weird. My friends and family always comment on it!

This faucet is everything I hoped for and more. The multifunctional capability is great; i.e. spraying down the sink while filling a pot at the same time, or leaving the lower faucet handle in the "on" position, then the pot filler and sprayer are ready to go when turned on. There was a slight concern that it would be too tall, but not the case - looks great (as long as you're not installing under a cabinet). I personally would not buy the faucet without the "pot filler" option; it's worth the extra few dollars. BTW: Installation is simple.

Very tall but works great - wonderful water pressure. The soap dispenser was almost too short to fit into the granite countertop - I finally barely got it to fit
This faucet is amazing! It is heavy duty, shiny and larger than i expected. The packaging is double boxed with styrofoam to prevent shifting during transportation. Kraus makes truly exceptional products. Makes a stong statement in any kitchen-- planning to use mine in my island home above my stainless steel country sink.. Cannot wait for installation already got some ooohs's and ahhh's while in the box.

Wow! I love my new faucet. It is the focal point of the kitchen. Very powerful. I leave the water turned on at the base, and the sprayer works for the on/off. No leaks. It is a great quality product. The instructions are no help to you at all, but all the parts go together logically. I looked high and low for this exact faucet, and it was right here all the time. It works just as well as the commercial sprayers found in professional kitchens.
