 We love it March 1, 2009

We have been using this faucet for about a month and are very happy with it.
What we like . . .
Construction is solid and the action on the handle is silky smooth
The leverage with the longer handle makes flow easy to control
Twisting the head to switch between stream and spray is very convenient -- I frequently set it half way between.
The goose-neck makes our sink seem much larger (we replaced a Kohler faucet with less clearance).
It looks great (we have chrome version).
Cautions . . .
The pull down is really a 2-handed job -- it does not come out that easily. I don't find it a problem, however.
Clearance -- if you are installing on a center mount with a wall close behind, be sure you read the specs for clearance needed behind the faucet to allow the handle to go all of the way back -- it may not fit in some installations. We have it corner mounted.
In sum, we think the faucet has great construction, to our taste is one of the few that are actually attractive in design, and has a smooth easy to control action. Highly recommended.
Wow, so this is what a faucet is supposed to feel like... June 3, 2009

I replaced my old Delta faucet with this one when I was putting in granite countertops. The difference is like night and day... this thing just oozes quality. The lever is so easy to move and so smooth it's incredible.
I had two concerns about this faucet after reading a previous review - first, the throw of the handle and second, the strength required to use the pull-down.
The first really is an issue if you don't have much clearance to the wall behind the faucet - the lever moves around 90 degrees total, and it's fairly long. The easy way I took to get around this issue was simply to mount it with the handle in front. It looks great, it's more symmetric, and it doesn't pull much towards you so it doesn't get in the way of dishes and pots and pans.
The second issue, pull-down tension, I didn't find to be an issue at all, it has enough tension so it will retract by itself if you're not holding it but not so much that it's a big effort. I didn't read the installation instructions, but I did see a spring and a clip so possibly the tension is adjustable. You do have to push it in to get it flush, I guess that's how it stays in (rather than tension on the hose)
I love the way you twist to switch between spray and stream - it's simple, elegant, and doesn't clutter up the head with ugly buttons. The spray is significantly stronger than my old side sprayer for some reason.
All it all, I couldn't be happier with this faucet - it's beautiful to look at and use.

I was told by a fixture retailer that I hadn't heard of this manufacturer because Danze refuses to make a "lower end" product for sale in big box retail stores like Home Depot. She said she replaces customers' cheap Moen and Kohler at least a couple of times a month with Danze. Then she told me that her price was nearly $230 more than it was on Amazon.
I am quite happy with the faucet. It is beautiful, substantial, and works great. The plumber was impressed with the materials used for the inner workings. I also like the fact that you can change between spray and stream with a twist of the nozzle. Other SS faucets have a button, which, in my opinion, ruins the sleek look.
Love it! November 13, 2009

Just switched from my second Lady Lux to this Danze faucet and am loving it. The only thing Lady lux had was great hose flexibilty. The Danze hose is fairly stiff however it's not something I use alot since the neck is so high, everything fits underneath it. It fits solidly on my Corian sink and looks spectacular. I love the feature that you can just turn the end and get varying degrees of spray to full power. Love it and it was half the price of the Lady Lux!
beautiful, stylish quality product December 21, 2009

this is a beautiful faucet.. adjustable flow between stream & spray with a simple twist, a pullout spout as well. with it's size and high arc, no pot is too tall... it is large, however, so if you have a smaller sink you might want to go with the bar size faucet. One weird thing, the hot and cold were reversed; when the plumber originally hooked it up according to the labels on the intake hoses, the hot ended up on the right, and cold on the left (handle direction). This is a German faucet... Are things different in Europe? No biggie, he just reversed the connections and now cold is to the right the way we're used to it.
