Product Technologies:

  • MagnaTite Docking: Delta's patented MagnaTite Docking Technology uses a powerful integrated magnet to securely hold your Delta kitchen faucet's pull-down spray in place when not in use. A light tug releases the wand for total flexibility and a full range of motion. When docking the wand after use, the MagnaTite Docking mechanism will guide the spray securely back into place.
  • Diamond Seal: Delta DIAMOND Seal Technology utilizes a ceramic disc valve with a real diamond coating to produce a faucet that will last up to 5 million uses. That's an amazing 10 times the industry standard, guaranteeing a lifetime of leak-free, trouble-free performance.
  • Eco Friendly: Through a number of technologies and innovations, Delta’s Eco Friendly faucets achieve the impossible: A faucet that feels like more water, while actually conserving water. There are many advantages to this beyond helping protect our nation’s water resources. First, Delta’s Eco Friendly faucets splash less; you won’t have to wipe your counters as much. Second, they use less hot water, preserving your hot water supply and reducing associated water-heating costs. Third, you will feel a little less guilty leaving the water running for longer periods.
  • Touch Clean: Only Delta offers faucets equipped with Touch Clean soft, rubber nubbins (spray holes) that allow you to easily wipe away calcium and lime build-up with the touch of a finger. This is particularly helpful for areas with hard water.

Product Reviews

Single Handle Kitchen Faucet with Pull-Out Spray, Soap Dispenser, Diamond Seal Technology and Magnatite Docking from the Leland Collection 5 5 23 25
great product and price This is a great faucet at a very reasonable price. It was shipped promptly and was not that difficult to install. I highly recommend it as its features make it a best-buy as far as I am concerned September 16, 2011
Love this faucet! It looks great, is really functional and I love washing the dishes now? Ha. No, seriously it's an awesome faucet. July 31, 2011
We're happy with our choice. There's really nothing like a double handled faucet for fine tuning water temperature, but we decided on this single handled model for the sake of practicality. I was dubious about the sprayer headed faucet, but it has been wonderful. It clicks right back into place every time. If I had a complaint, it's that the sprayer button sometimes finds itself a mid-point, where it is both a stream and a spray, but that's not a big or serious problem. The pump only dispenses a small amount of soap with each pump, making the soap itself go further. We think it's an attractive accessory and love that it is arched enough to get tall vases and bottles under it. All in all we're very pleased with this faucet. July 4, 2011
Worth every Cent ! This faucet looks and works great ! But if I had it to do over I would replace the sink with a new heavier guage metal as the faucet is rather heavy. May 6, 2011
Great product for Boats/Yachts I did an upgrade on my boat and found this faucet to be very easy to install. I would consider this product for all my future upgrades for any outside or home projects. April 20, 2011
Best Kitchen Faucet This is the best kitchen faucet we have seen. We had the old style pull-out faucet with the whole handle coming out of the neck. It worked and was nice for awhile, but it was bulky and heavy. This one has a small head with spray/straight switch which is easy to use and the head is light and magnetized for quick return to the neck. We couldn't be more happy with it. April 18, 2011
My favorite upgrade! This is the most amazing faucet I have ever used! I like it better than my new counter tops !! Now I am moving and have purchased another one for my new home - can't imagine not having it! It is so easy to clean things without splashing with the hose and it pops back into place with the strong magnet easily -- I have been using it for more than a year now and it still works and looks great! November 28, 2010
shiney, new, updated look My husband installed faucet himself. The only difficult part is getting under the sink. The magnet which holds the retractable head is strong without being too strong. My only issue (and it is small) is that because of the curve of the faucet head, it is a little difficult to pull head off and then out to fill a pan that is on the counter and not in the sink. I may just may be treating this faucet a little too delicately. The range of this faucet is good without needing to pull the head out too far though. The toggle between spray and regular is very good. Easy to use. The soap dispenser is easy to fill from the top and is a nice convenience. The handle that turns the water on is very nice and is easy to use. Able to turn faucet on with gooey hands without actually using fingers. Great feature if working with raw meats. I highly recommend this faucet. Especially for the price. The materials used look as good as any other faucet I have seen. My kitchen is filled with high end appliances and this faucet fits right in. All in all, I am happy with this purchase and with Faucet Direct. Delivery was quite fast and you can't beat the price. November 19, 2010
Great Design and Function I ordered these a few weeks ago, but my granite guys were so far behind, we just got it installed. It looks great and works perfectly. I decided on the Delta in Chrome because I like the bling the Chrome gives and I thought the magnet in the spray head was a must. I had it professionally installed, so no comments there. The order shipped very quickly and arrived in perfect condition. August 16, 2010
Fetching SPLASH to my new kitchen!! I love, love my new faucet!! It was the final touch that is also the workhorse in my kitchen! Let's face it - the sink is where we all end up - even the non-cooks and the kids! The pull down spray and my little "stickshift" hot/cold control gets any job down quick and with a hint of fun thrown in. Thank you - I'm tickled with the product and the delivery was fast, too!

Like many retailers, Build.com can choose to set its own prices independently. And even though manufacturers require Build.com and other retailers to display a product's "minimum advertised price" (or MAP), the retailer can choose to sell for less than that. But the price must be conveyed in other ways, and each individual manufacturer's MAP policy determines where the price can be seen.

To see the price for this product at Build.com, you'll need to place it in your shopping cart, and maybe even proceed to final checkout. If you're not ready to buy the product, simply remove it from the cart.
