I love these! Our house is grey with more grey and I don't love our counters. These new faucets are beautiful. They don't show all the water spots. They will show your white toothpaste, but otherwise they look cleaner than our brushed nickel. We had them installed because I don't touch plumbing. They don't leak. They have a powerful flow of water. We also wanted something that had the water flowing out over the drain. Our old set was so close to the back of the sink it was hard to wash your hands. With these, it is easy to actually get your hands in the water, wash your face at the sink, fill a bottle, etc. Very happy.
