We purchased this to replace a 16 year old faucet that was installed when the house was built 16 years ago.  The counter top had 2 holes for the facet and the control valve. Since the old control was on the right, I had to turn this faucet 180 degrees to place the control on the left.  Hot and cold are something we have to get used to. Everything worked until we installed the soap dispenser.  We found in the fine print that it has to be 8 inched away from the faucet.  The 2nd hole is closer than that.  The cover plate that comes with the unit will not fit since the counter is not straight across. I am looking for another alternative rather than returning this product.
