I'm very impressed by the quality and ease of installation of this faucet. I did a lot of looking and shopping for a faucet that would compliment the 80 year old pedestal sink it would be mounted on and I chose this one for it's look and price. I wasn't sure what to expect as I've never used a Metropolitan fixture before. I've always gone with the industry leaders like Delta, American Standard, Kohler, Price Phister, etc. but this faucet is possibly the the heaviest, best made and easiest to install faucet that I've used to date. The fit and finish is excellent, it came with all it's parts, had good directions, was well packed and works like a charm. I highly recommend this product! And I should tell you I've been professionally involved in construction for a very long time and have personally remodeled / renovated 6 homes so I feel very qualified to offer this review.
The fixture arrived and I was very pleased with the look. The trap is so narrow that draining seems to be a bit of a problem. Additionally, after only a month the porcelain 'tag' came off the handle. It was an awful lot of money to spend on something that only looked good for a month.
I like this so much I"m getting a second set for my other bathroom. I saw one at Snyder Diamond that was $850 that looks very similar - it's heavy, well made and, though I did just install it, works great. Let's hope it keeps up the good work.
Bought one of these and decided to order another while doing bathroom renovations. Very pleased with the quality and look of the faucet.
A plumber just installed the Metro faucet from Kingston Brass. We scored a great deal on Overstock at $$$, but I would have paid double that knowing the quality. Have only been using it a week but it has worked great. Very solid construction and looks beautiful with our new pedastal sink in our 1929 home. Our plumber was really surprised by the quality, said that it had brass parts where he would want them. No plastic. Our other bathroom has very similar faucet that we paid about $400 for about 10 yrs ago, and I have to admit that the Kingston Brass is much nicer.
Looks great, just as it was on the site. Seems to work great. I'm very happy with the purchase.
We bought 10 sets of these for houses we are developing. They are a fantastic deal, very well made and attractive. We feel lucky to have found them. thanks overstock!
Wow! I have seen these sell for more than $200 on other sites and I got this for a steal! Perfect and just as show inthe picture. Can't wait to install it.
We are swapping out our polished brass fixtures for a more modern look. The polished brass fixtures were installed when the house was built and are of very high quality. The Kingston Metropolitan Chrome Faucets make a good replacement, although they are not quite as heavy as what we had. The styling is good and goes well with the style of our house (farm house). We had them installed by a reputable handyman group. Unfortunately, there is a leak in all 5 faucets at the elbow joint, but I'm pretty sure it has more to do with the installation that the faucets. It should be a quick fix.
This was one of the first purchases I made here on Overstock so I appreciate the reviews as I was a bit unsure about getting a faucet that wasn't a big/recognized brand. I initially wanted a faucet that was four times the cost of this one but this one had very similar lines and thankfully, the quality exceeded our expectations. It's well made, solid, heavy, and our plumber and carpenter were impressed with it as well. I chose the solid-cross handle and the porcelain tops were on solidly. My plumber almost tried to pop them off thinking the set screw was underneath it. I also liked how the reach on this faucet was long for our vanity that has the holes set back a bit far. It operates clean and tight, and the chrome finish is top notch too.
