So so

I like the overall look of this faucet—it has a nice design—but the spout sits too far back, which can be inconvenient depending on your sink layout. Installation was about what I expected; like most faucets, it's not exactly easy unless you're working with a vanity top before it's attached to the base. After over three years of use, the handles still feel stiff to operate, which is a bit disappointing. It’s held up over time, but the usability could definitely be better.

Looks nice, awkward install, drain width issue

Project: Replace worn 30-year-old faucets & drains. Faucet: First time installing a three-hole faucet. I liked the attractive look and no-putty installation. But it was difficult to tighten the nuts below the faucets while keeping the guide arrows on the bottom of the faucet facing directly toward the sink. (The arrows must face directly forward so the handle movement lines up properly.) There is a useful install tool, but I had to do final faucet tightening (after tightening the set screws on t...

Gorgeous,Clean Lines, and Elegant

At first sight my wife loved the looks of this faucet so we were half-way home. She does aesthetics and I do mechanicals so I have to admit I was a tad concerned about the valve to spigot connections being snap and click. I have been using that type of connection for years on my pull-out kitchen faucets without any problems. If you are familiar with kitchen pull-out faucets & sprayers the water hose constantly travels in and out. I figured if those could handle the abuse of constant movement the...

Very Nice Faucet and Drain! Easy installation!

I got this faucet to replace that regular bathroom faucet with the clear plastic handle that every house had in the 90s. Rundown: -Function: Very nice mechanism of action- the lever works very smoothly. The drain seals very nicely and works a million times better than the type with the stem behind the lever. Easy to activate stopper that seals nicely. -Cleanability: HIGH! Very cleansible around the back because of the clearance between the faucet and the back of the vanity, and the lack of ...

Look nice - for about 1 year

After installing 3 of these Karci Spot Defense faucets, they have all corroded. Besides not looking attractive anymore, they also fail to function properly. Due to corrosion, the water now shoots out further, beyond the edge of the sink and directly on to the users lap! Pfister's warranty department refuses to give us a different style of faucet and only sent us the exact same faucet for replacement (which means we would have to deal with this all again in another year). Pfister has refused ...

Don't buy

This faucet is beautiful. Unfortunately the design is terrible. The faucet doesn't come far enough out so any time you wash your hands water gets up onto the back of the vanity top. I have a 3 year old who at any other sink can wash his hands but at this one can barely reach the water and needs to be helped everytime he washes his hands. Not to mention the gunk that is going to start forming at the back of the sink and around the faucet because who has time to wipe up water every time they wash ...

Quality Made Faucet

We have never owned a Karci (Pfister) brand faucet before, but are impressed with the quality. This is a very modern look. The handles move smoothly and you can easily remove the aerator for cleaning, if necessary. I tried this before installation. My husband said the instructions were very easy to follow and had all the tools required except an adjustable wrench. He was very pleased with the overall experience and said it was one of the best ones he has ever installed. We love the look and feel...

Very nice

This is a very handsome faucet, with clean, modern lines. The lever operates very smoothly, with minimal effort. Unfortunately, the first one I purchased, which was sealed from the factory, had a scratch. As usual, Lowe's was fantastic and exchanged it. The faucet was very easy to install. The gasket worked fine on my solid surface vanity top, but wasn't thick enough to seal against the irregular vitreous china sink in my other bathroom. Plumbers putty was an easy fix. I do wish the handle was a...

Pros: Quality product. Once installed it really feels solid and looks nice. There weren't any loose parts or movement. Haven't had it long enough to really be able to declare that it is "spot resistance" but so far I haven't noticed any, but truthfully that has never been an issue that concerned me. The install steps are relatively simple and the instructions are easy to follow. All tools except the adjustable wrench were supplied which was nice. Really like the new sink drain push style closure...

Two different Pfister model faucets, same issues!

I am not one to write reviews but feel compelled if nothing more than to save someone an extra trip back to return their faucet. So this was my 2nd Pfister faucet purchased in the last 2 days (I returned the 1st one ((different model)) to buy this this one BUT this 2nd one is causing me the same issue as the one I returned!) Both continuously kept leaking from within the sink bowl down the pop-up assembly into my vanity. EVERYTHING was done per their instructions (not that I needed them as I am ...
