The look and feel is excellent. Well made. Let me address the water splashing that so many people complain about. This is a highend product hence the water comes out like that. It does splash howver many peolel ove the water flow like that. If the splashing is a concern then you add a aerator which keep sit simple. You also must install it properly so the flow restrictor in the body does not get clogged with dirt (the instructions tell you to run the valve before installing).
