Can be stellar - if you get a good one out of the box

Can be stellar - if you get a good one out of the box
It's a great looking faucet. The problem is that the flow of water on the sprayer is too low. And a warning if you try to remove the aerator. There is a small cone shaped spring inside. It is easy to loose this if you are not careful. Also note that it has to go back in the same way or else the spray-to-regular action will not automatically revert. Finally, there is an oh so tiny blue o-ring sealing the aerator. If you are not careful you could be screwing in the aerator and the blue o-ring is not seated properly. As this is a brand new install I did not expect to have to diagnose issues. Our next step would be to take the faucet apart to get to and inspect the check valve. There are so many pieces in this fauct In a sense this faucet is a little over-engineered possibly to be production-friendly but not user-maintenance friendly. These small bits that can get easily lost or mis-adjusted, along with the low sprayer flow, is a let down to an otherwise stellar faucet.Update: 2017-MAY-27 - Starting from yesterday the faucet output went way down. Following the directions/troubleshooting section I removed the upper part of the faucet to get to the check-valve. At the bottom of the check-value was a kind of carbon grunge. I cleaned it from the bottom of the check-value and soaked the CV in 50% vinegar solution for 5 minutes as suggested. After that blew air through the value to ensure it was clear. Put the faucet back together. No change, still low pressure..Update: 2017-JUN-05 - We got our replacement head for the unit today. It totally solved the low pressure problem. We spoke with customer support last week, they talked us through additional troubleshooting not in the manual, and we determined at that time the head was the likely issue. Sure enough. It now works as it should have the first time. I'm leaving the review at 4 stars, not 5, because of the issues and extra hoops we had to go through in order to get a functioning unit.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good quality, and aethestics... a couple of nits
Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2019
Quality seems high (mostly all metal construction), and I like the simple aesthetics (passed over many others for the simplicity of design of the Kraus). Installation was quick and simple, but a note on installation, as someone else noted - definitely attach the feeder lines to the faucet before routing it in the counter hole for installation. (we have a fairly deep sink and trying to connect the water lines after faucet installation would've been an insufferable task)

The stream is strong and smooth, both the faucet and the handle, swivels, actuates, very smoothly with a feel of solidity, and the stainless finish and the finer coil spring, give it a sophisticated look.

The two nits: everything is of metal construction, except for the sprayer assembly, which is all plastic, including the spray/stream toggle switch - I think many would agree: charge more but make everything of metal construction - it's so hard to discern which ones actually are, via the descriptions; secondly, the sprayer, in the docked position, sits a bit low. I'm sure it's so, so there's less splash outside the bin, but it's low enough that moving large pots/pans around in the sink would be somewhat inhibited (it looks to be only about 6-7" above the counter level). One more thing to note, the faucet always returns to stream/pot filler mode, regardless of the toggle position, once you turn off the water and back on - the Kohler faucet which this replaced, remembered the spray or stream setting.

Overall a good quality/looking piece, and happy with the purchase.
