Years ago I got started with Delta. Before that, I shopped for the lowest price, and that's what I got, along with low quality. I live on the beach (corrosion), and we have hard water on top of that (deposits). Delta products stand up to these hazards, and when they do need repair (EVERYTHING needs repair), the customer service from Delta is superb. Quick, correct and usually FREE. How can you beat that?

Delta is simply the best. Perhaps a bit more expensive at the outset, but NO DOUBT the most effective (installation, function and repair), and the most efficient cost to own over time.
