I really did not want a faucet with a sprayer that pulled down from the handle after seeing so seem to go limp after use. But that seems to be predominant style now, and ultimately so happy we found this one! Have had it in our kitchen for about 5 months now - overall very happy. Great looking, very solid faucet - our plumber said this Grohe is a quality brand that will last. Only gripe is that the button that turns water flow from solid stream to spray sometimes sticks its supposed to automatically pop back out when water is shut off.
