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, Diamond Seal Technology and Magnatite Docking from the Leland Collection 4.8 5 4 4
A huge improvement for our home The faucet replaced a junky builder grade which my husband said should really just be fixed. He now admits he loves this faucet -- easy to install, easy to use, easy to clean. By comparison, it seems much bigger visually, which took a while to get used to, Not too long because it was a lot easier to clean the sink and wash dishes. Pull down hose with magnet works great. We got the water saver model, so it takes a little longer to fill a pot, but we're saving water when washing dishes, hands, etc.... We just purchased it a month ago so I can't say much about how it holds up over time . June 2, 2011
Magnatite Rocks I will never again buy a faucet without the magnatite feature. The sprayer clicks right back in place when you are finished. The others I have had have loosened over time and not fit snugly after using. I hated that! :) May 14, 2011
beautiful faucet is exactly what we wanted delivery was great and the price was very very good. we purchased faucet and shower plumbing and faucet for bath remodel earier great place to shop April 20, 2011

Why don't we show the price?

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.

Build.com apologizes for any inconvenience. We'd just like to offer you the chance to save extra money while we adhere to manufacturers' MAP policies. Build.com is also working to educate manufacturers on how their policies impact customers and their buying behavior.
