Review: Five stars after some issues - This will be a very strange five star review since I did have numerous issues during and after the install. I am not a plumber, but I have installed a couple dozen faucets over the years and, on the face of it, the install is pretty straightforward and relatively easy. The unit itself is very beefy- even the sprayer. I swear if you need a weapon carry this faucet around for protection. You can beat any attacker to death with it using a couple of swings. It's very nice looking in design, and the finish is consistent and pleasant looking. The problems in installing; I have a 3cm counter and the escutcheon tubes under the faucet handles are barely long enough to fit. Also, the one on the cold side wasn't factory tight, and I learned that the hard way after the initial install and had a leak. I had to take it off and tighten it up. Okay, it's installed and working fine. Until the water flow reduced to a trickle after a minute or so. Took the aerator off and no difference. Took the spout part off, which is very easy to do, and the only thing left seated in the body was the diverted valve. That's when I made the mistake in calling the manufacturer. The guy told me to take the aerator off to see if it would help after I told him I was already three steps past that point. Dude, get off the preprinted troubleshooting guide and listen to your customers. After he finally listened to me he said he could send me another diverted valve, I would just have to email him a picture of my proof of purchase and address. When I hung up with him I decided to take the valve out and take a look at it. Removal was pretty easy. It has a plastic body with a hex recessed shape. I used a 1/2" chisel, pushed down a little and turned it counterclockwise. There was a piece of rubber in one of the holes, so I removed it, put everything back together and it worked fine. Okay, so here is where inspiration struck. The diverter valve is by itself pretty worthless, since all it does is restrict water flow. I took the faucet apart and removed it. Put it back together and got about a 30% jump in water flow. And about double the pressure in the sprayer. It works great now, and it is a very good value, even with the stupid issues I had.
Review: Love my new Kingston Brass Heritage Faucet...it is ATTRACTIVE & FUNCTIONAL! - After pushing through nearly 10 years with two sub-standard and ugly Delta Faucets (both leaked after 2 years of minimal use...there are only TWO ADULTS here in our home and we do NOT over use or abuse our sink faucets), I purchased this great Kingston Brass faucet based on aesthetics and MANY online reviews. Although pricey, this is a great faucet and I am extremely happy with my purchase. For starters, THIS IS A HEAVY BRASS, gorgeous CHROME-PLATED faucet that feels substantial and durable... the entire faucet mechanism is HEAVY! Our ONLY GLITCH was the FIRST faucet (our first purchase of this exact faucet) HAD A SPLIT IN THE ACTUAL BRASS ALONG THE BRIDGE, which caused a pin-hole leak (can you believe it)? What are the chances of the actual BRASS being split??? Upon searching and searching, securing & reconnecting connections and searching again, my husband discovered a small split along the rear of the bridge! So we immediately contacted desertcart and returned the defective faucet. We were immediately given return/refund instructions from desertcart and because we loved the faucet so much, we immediately ordered a second Kingston Brass KS1271ALBS Heritage Faucet. Upon ordering a second faucet (no hassles, second one was shipped with an additional charge to our credit card for the second faucet...first faucet was credited back to our account upon receipt by desertcart Returns), we removed the first faucet, dried everything off, repackaged the defective faucet and dropped the item off at our local United Parcel Service/Fed Ex storefront for its return to the desertcart Fullfillment Center. This Heritage collection faucet is attractive and goes very well in our 160-year old farmhouse kitchen. Style truly is old "Victorian" and is very attractive and easy to clean. The double handle kitchen faucet includes a 8" centerset setup with a 360-degree turn swivel hook spout, so CHECK YOUR MEASUREMENTS and make sure the upper faucet "swivel" mechanism et al "clears" your back splash...that seems to be the biggest "hazard. The hot/cold handles move in a 1/4-turn rotation, which I like. Everything fits/feels tight. We have no drips, no leaks. Per usual, installment was a bit of pain, as my husband had to contort himself, then brace himself for the arduous, under-sink, usual "faucet replacement installment nigthmare." Obviously, it is MUCH easier to install an initial faucet in new construction versus remove an old, broken faucet, replace a faucet, remove a defective new faucet, replace a faucet, etc. But all is good! Water pressure is extraordinary and a HUGE plus is a pot "sprayer" that is actually BRASS (and not your usual typical plastic). Love everything about my new faucet! It is super-durable, functional and attractive!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where is this made?**
A: This Faucet is made in the USA. This particular design is by far, the best Faucet I've  ever purchased. Regards, Clifton...

**Q: is this solid brass or just a brass finish?**
A: Solid and heavy brass

**Q: What is the hole diameter? I have 1.5”, would it work?**
A: Scroll to the second and third images on the Amazon listing and it points out all the dimensions. It looks like the faucet has three all 1/2”holes minimum and the sprayer 7/8”. That said Thr screw plates are 2 1/8”. It should work for your application as long as your holes are spaced accordingly.

**Q: Does anyone know the size of the Allen wrench that came with it?  I can’t find one to fit. Thank you.**
A: This will not come with any wrench

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very beautiful! Good quality
*by K***T on August 19, 2021*

I ordered this because the exact same faucet on other sites was quite a bit more. When it came my husband was very impressed with weight and quality of parts(metal fittings and such instead of plastic). While it did take a different size tubing attachment than normal, the install was pretty seamless a d we have not encountered any leaks or issues. The sprayer nozzle is very heavy duty versus most cheaply made plastic ones you get in faucet sets. Very beautiful and timeless look. It is worth every penny.
