This facuet replaced the same one which was installed 2.5 years ago and which broke. Specifically, the handle broke off when I went to dispense hot water, resulting in water gushing out of the faucet until I went below the sink to turn off the supply line. Very frustrating. Luckily it was under warranty still. The new version of this faucet has been much better engineered. You can tell they changed how the handle functions when depressed. Very happy with the product and glad Insinkerator honored their warranty and replaced the defective faucet at no cost.
