I purchased this faucet about a month ago and although I had it installed by a plumber the installation was very easy. I have now used this faucet for the past month and found that it works great, has a strong spray and rinses dishes well. One other thing I like about the spray is that if you forget to turn off the spray and place it back in position and shut off the water, when the water is turned back on the flow of water goes to a regular flow not the spray. Although the spray wand is plastic I believe that this faucet will give us years of service and it's spot resistant finish is a plus.
