Kingston Brass KS1273ALBS Heritage 8-Inch Kitchen Bridge Faucet with Brass Sprayer - Antique Brass Finish - Perfect for Farmhouse, Vintage & Traditional Kitchen Sinks

After pushing through nearly 10 years with two sub-standard and ugly Delta Faucets (both leaked after 2 years of minimal use...there are only TWO ADULTS here in our home and we do NOT over use or abuse our sink faucets), I purchased this great Kingston Brass faucet based on aesthetics and MANY online reviews. Although pricey, this is a great faucet and I am extremely happy with my purchase.For starters, THIS IS A HEAVY BRASS, gorgeous CHROME-PLATED faucet that feels substantial and durable... the entire faucet mechanism is HEAVY! Our ONLY GLITCH was the FIRST faucet (our first purchase of this exact faucet) HAD A SPLIT IN THE ACTUAL BRASS ALONG THE BRIDGE, which caused a pin-hole leak (can you believe it)? What are the chances of the actual BRASS being split??? Upon searching and searching, securing & reconnecting connections and searching again, my husband discovered a small split along the rear of the bridge! So we immediately contacted Amazon and returned the defective faucet. We were immediately given return/refund instructions from Amazon and because we loved the faucet so much, we immediately ordered a second Kingston Brass KS1271ALBS Heritage Faucet. Upon ordering a second faucet (no hassles, second one was shipped with an additional charge to our credit card for the second faucet...first faucet was credited back to our account upon receipt by Amazon Returns), we removed the first faucet, dried everything off, repackaged the defective faucet and dropped the item off at our local United Parcel Service/Fed Ex storefront for its return to the Amazon Fullfillment Center.This Heritage collection faucet is attractive and goes very well in our 160-year old farmhouse kitchen. Style truly is old "Victorian" and is very attractive and easy to clean. The double handle kitchen faucet includes a 8" centerset setup with a 360-degree turn swivel hook spout, so CHECK YOUR MEASUREMENTS and make sure the upper faucet "swivel" mechanism et al "clears" your back splash...that seems to be the biggest "hazard.The hot/cold handles move in a 1/4-turn rotation, which I like. Everything fits/feels tight. We have no drips, no leaks. Per usual, installment was a bit of pain, as my husband had to contort himself, then brace himself for the arduous, under-sink, usual "faucet replacement installment nigthmare." Obviously, it is MUCH easier to install an initial faucet in new construction versus remove an old, broken faucet, replace a faucet, remove a defective new faucet, replace a faucet, etc.But all is good! Water pressure is extraordinary and a HUGE plus is a pot "sprayer" that is actually BRASS (and not your usual typical plastic). Love everything about my new faucet! It is super-durable, functional and attractive!!
