I love the look of this faucet in my kitchen. However, it performs very poorly in hard water. I had the first one for about two years when the hot water handle began to be very hard to turn on, tried using oil to free it up but that didn't work, we had no choice but to replace the faucet. I love the look so much, I bought another one hoping for a better outcome. Now about a year later I'm searching for a new faucet again, exact same problem only the hot
water side.
I've enjoyed using the faucet while it worked properly, but would only recommend it if you don't have hard water.
