First, this review is actually for the chrome version of this faucet. I bought it a while back, and only installed it today.
The faucet itself is gorgeous. It's eye candy and very substantial. And if that's all I had to go on, I'd recommend it in a heartbeat.
My husband and I installed this faucet, and there were three major problems. First is the instruction booklet that comes with it. It absolute FAILS in the "body part" identification. There is no way to tell from the instructions which rubber washer goes where. That probably wouldn't be critical if they hadn't come off the drainpipe/pop-up assembly, but they did. We put them back as best we could and tried various order combinations, but the assembly leaks, so we'll be calling a plumber Monday.
Secondly, the pipe should come in two pieces (per their booklet). It didn't. It came in one piece and if there was a way to separate it, we couldn't find it. That's important because there should be teflon tape installed between the two pieces. There isn't. It leaks.
Third. The drain flange is almost impossible to get fitted tight enough not to leak. So yeah, it leaks.
Like I said, the faucet is gorgeous. I love it. But the entire pop-up/drain assembly is very flawed and the instruction booklet is next to useless (and nothing I could find on the Kingston Brass website was of help. If I were to do it all over again, I'd buy the faucet and leave the popup/drain pieces in the box and head to the home center to buy one.
