I have not installed this faucet yet as we are at the end of our kitchen renovations and waiting on our countertops.  I can honestly say that its a solid piece beautiful faucet.  Black is a nice matt and the gold is a champagne soft gold just gorgeous.  Will match beautifully with my cabinet hardware.  As soon as this is installed and I can test it I will post another review with some pictures.
This is a nice faucet and I'm glad I chose this colour.
