I wanted a more modern look for the faucets and towel holders, etc.  and these faucets are sleek and pretty.  The chrome color is shiny bright.  The faucets work well.  I purposely looked for something that had a higher faucet spout because I'm always trying to rinse tall bottles in the sink and this works well.  My contractor installed it so I don't know how easy/hard it was to do.
