Although this faucet is a little expensive, it is worth every penny. It's probably the best purchase we made for our new kitchen! The entire unit swivels left to right with ease, and the handle turns smoothly when adjusting the temperature. I am a stickler for a clean sink, and the dual setting water flow button makes it easy to wash debris down the drain quickly and effectively. I like being able to hang a dish rag on the vertical bar, and feel confident knowing it has a lifetime warranty. Highly recommend this faucet!
