Delta 4353-AR-DST Linden Pull-Out, 1 cm, Arctic Stainless

My Wife recently decided to remodel our 1999 kitchen. Of course, deciding on fixtures via the internet is very hard, because the big box stores only carry what they want you to buy.Please take a look at the attached photo and I think you will agree, if you are looking for a modern, pull-out faucet, this artistic design is beautiful, yet affordable. As the description reads, it does look a bit like a weeping willow branch or something like it. We particularly like that it does not stand too high and obstruct our kitchen window view. It also stretches out to the middle of our kitchen sink, so we can drip our faucet on cold winter nights and not hear the pinging water on the S.S. sink bottom. The faucet stretches out to the middle of the sink drain hole.We've been using it for several months now, and it is strong, well made, and functional. I do not care for the plastic buttons, but everything else on it is made of metal, which gives it a quality feel. For the looks of a very expensive faucet, this Delta product is a bargain.

I counted, and between moves and remodels, I have had 14 kitchen faucets over the years. This one is far better than any of the others--and that includes the trendy gooseneck faucet I tried a few years ago. The pull-out part is large enough to grasp easily. It pulls out smoothly, even when I am pulling it sideways to fill a pot on the counter. The hose is long enough to reach all the way over to refill my coffee maker which is three feet away. I especially love the spray feature that turns on and off with a rocker switch, instead of a button. Once on, it stays on until I turn it off. So if I am washing several dishes by hand and turning off the water between rinsing, I do not have to reset it to spray every time I turn the water back on. It even stays on the spray setting when the flow is turned down to a trickle! And unlike other faucets I have had, when the flow volume is at its maximum, the spray does not come out so forcefully as to ricochet off the bottom of the sink and splatter all over me. The handle is large enough to grab readily without looking and is comfortable in my hand. I couldn't be happier with my choice--especially considering how many less-functional faucets sell for hundreds of dollars more.

I am very happy with this faucet, at first we thought it was the wrong type to work with our sink, but after finding this very one at a big box store, we were able to see that it would indeed work for us. I wanted to change out the massive faucet that was installed prior to us buying our new house. I mean who wants a faucet to be a focal point in a kitchen....not me. This one has all the bells and whistles of the massive faucet, but without the gigantic size. A smaller packed package, which is just what I wanted. A very nice faucet and so happy I didn't send it back.

What I like the most is the sleek look and the ease of use. The flow of water is also excellent. I had 2 earlier faucets with the 'pull-out' part. The first was replaced when the pull-out part broke. The 2nd was replaced because the build up of minerals plugged the spray of water too much. This faucet moves easily, unlike my old faucet, and it's easy to adjust the stream of water from normal to spray. The inexpensive price was one of the top reasons why I really like this faucet! My plumber, who installed it, has one just like it in his home and had recommended it.

I looked everywhere for a faucet that was not cheaply made. I looked for weeks in all plumbing supplies and discount stores. I just couldn't find anything that I could live with.After reading reviews for this particular faucet, I very skeptically ordered it, sight unseen fully expecting to be disappointed.IT IS REALLY NICE, AND I AM HAPPY TO HAVE IT. After 2 months of use: It feels good, and is made well. Even though the spray is not chrome, it is heavy and does not feel or look cheap. It works well. My water supply comes from my own in ground well and I was a little concerned about water pressure. NO PROBLEM. I like having and enjoy using all the flow options. No complaints here!

So far this has been a good faucet. We've had it for a couple of months and it is working well. I like that the whole assembly rotates from side to side, and that the spray nozzle pulls out. There are two settings - normal and spray, and the spray setting has a good amount of water pressure. It feels well made. I do wonder how well the switch to change from spray to normal will hold up, as it feels a bit cheap, but time will tell and so far there haven't been any issues. The only other issue we've had is you have to be sure the handle is all the way centered when shutting off, or it can drip.

Super fancy, I love it. I even installed this faucet myself (and I'm a girl). It is super pretty, and works great! It even has some weird buttons that you can control how hot the water gets - and I don't mean like the top faucet part (don't let my technical jargon fool you, I really don't know what I'm talking about). Like inside the top faucet part you can adjust how hot the water gets, kinda cool. I didn't do it because I think it's kinda funny that every time my husband uses the hot water he says "Oh my God, that gets so hot!" like every time for eleven years now. I didn't want to mess up his groove.

During the month my kitchen was gutted, I missed the running water to the sink most of all. I studied my alternatives, making the right choice. Note, I asked my plumber what he has, which is this brand. So, too, my contractor. Sturdy and spare parts are available. More expensive brands turn over quickly, making parts difficult to obtain. The built-in sprayer, tilt, and swivel helps with washing vegetables as well as dishes.

I purchased this Delta Linden kitchen faucet a few months ago and finally had it installed. The positives: It swivels very easily, it is easy to switch between stream and spray, and the sprayer works perfectly. The negative: It is very difficult to adjust the water temperature. Hot and cold are the norm, but anything in between is difficult to set. This is annoying when washing items by hand.Slight change to above review: I just discovered that if the faucet handle is lifted to it's maximum height, it is easier to adjust the water temperature. It shouldn't be necessary, however, to always have to use maximum pressure.

The chrome finish is shiny and needs to be polished up to look good. The stainless steel isn't shiny, doesn't show fingerprints and matches the stainless steel sink. Moving the faucet back and forth on a dual bowl sink eventually wore the metal on the inside next to the cartridge and it started leaking. Slamming the handle down abruptly to stop the dripping is only a temporary fix. 5 years is forever, for a well used family faucet. The pull-out sprayer is plastic to reduce weight.

It fits well in my setup, looking for something that is not go way up with the sprout coming down. Only issue with the design is it does not keep the water temperature setting, so have to adjust the temp every time, which is a bit inconvenient. Like the ability for 2 different spray pattern.

I cannot truly rate this product as I have returned it to Amazon. I have decided to buy another Delta faucet, but not a pullout. I have given it 3 stars as the appearance was fine and I liked the Arctic resist finish.

A part was missing so we returned the faucet...nice looking but spray handle is plastic not chrome.
