my biggest issue with this little home improvement project was removing my old faucet, it didn't want to budge. Once I got past that, installing the Mylan Two Handle Widespread Bathroom Faucet was a breeze, of course I follow instructions. The instructions, and my very basic plumbing skills were enough for me to remove my old faucet and install this new one. My greatest please comes from the height of this faucet, I love how it arches up high, easy to get your mouth under or a water bottle, or wash your hands with out your hands being super low in the bowl. I got the nice dark color, and oh boy does my bathroom pop. I even went out and bought a matching piece for my shower since I liked it so much.
