Kingston Brass KS3196AL 1/4 Turn Water Filtration Faucet, Polished Nickel

Water filter faucets are a strange market - it is largely divided into 2 categories - 1) the sub $100 no name brands and those that comes with the water filter. In summary they all pretty much very low quality and goes bad in a few years with leaks, rust, and questionable materials - you name it. 2) the $400+ name brand ones from kohler moen etc.. that's good quality similar to the kitchen faucets...but who wants to pay this much for a little water filter faucet.In comes kingston brass - a well known brand for brass, and their water filter faucet is not exception - very well built, high quality and at a fraction of the cost - almost too good to be true. Trust me if you want to buy a water filter faucet, this is the best you can do, unless you want to waste 10x more for a name brand. I have looked everywhere, there is no other option. Dont even bother trying to get the filter faucet that comes with those expensive water filters, they all oem junk.Thank you kingston brass for making this product and fill a gap in this market.My only complain is the instruction manual could use more detail instead of a simple black white photo, i had to watch a youtube video to figure out how to install it - the installation itself is easy once you understand it.

My contractor put this up on my sink. I use it with Filterete under the sink filter system: I was worried it won't work. My contractor had to buy different supply hose for the filter to attach but Filterete ones were too big but he found them at the big box store. It was a bit time consuming for him to attach to Filterete filter but it worked out at the end. It is oil rub bronzed color that matches my faucet like it came in the set. Flow is pretty nice too and in two month of using it, haven't noticed any dripping issues. Here is the link to the filter in case anyone is interested. I bought the maximum(lead) onehttps://www.amazon.com/Filtrete-Maximum-Filtration-Install-3US-MAX-S01/dp/B01L0ADH3K?psc=1&SubscriptionId=AKIAILSHYYTFIVPWUY6Q&tag=duckduckgo-d-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B01L0ADH3K

There is misleading copy in the item information: "The new offering for 2017 is a selection of water filtration faucets specifically designed for the reverse osmosis market which includes a built-in air gap." When I received the box, it said clearly on the labeling that this faucet is not designed for RO systems.

Great appearance matches our new faucets instead of the generic modernistic faucet which came with our new APEC R/O system. Works great and works with our R/O system. No gurgling at night near the bedroom though there is no water back-up protection (needed in kitchen sink disposal systems). Faucet upgrade is very l reasonably priced compared to similar-appearing models with back-up protection valve (which we do not need in this installation). We love our APEC R/O system and also have one at the other end of the house in the kitchen. You can’t beat the price, quality and ease of installation!

The place I get supplies for my RO filter system only has one, cheap, ugly option for a spigot. I purchased this to place on my sink for my RO system. It looks great with the oil-rubbed bronze faucet and soap dispenser we have. Also, the handle operates very smoothly and after about 4 months the cutoff is complete each time we use it.The only thing to watch out for is our old spigot was spring loaded, so you had to hold it to pour. With this Kingston, you have to turn it on then turn it off when done. Overall, I like this, since it's easier to fill larger containers, but I've gotten distracted a few times and overfilled containers :-(

A very good quality faucet. I initially purchased this faucet 7 years ago from a different website. However, it started leaking about 6 months ago. The valve continues to work well without leaks. However, after turning the faucet off, the remain water in the spout would leak from where the spot attached to the valve.O-rings are a wear time, but the manufacturer doesn't list the o-ring size. I did my best to match o-rings and replaced them, but that didn't help. I tried using some teflon tape, but the tip of the spout broke while inserting it. (Probably too much tape and force.)I was very pleased to see that Amazon carried this faucet at a fair price. The faucet arrive after only 1 day! (Thanks, Amazon!) I screwed on the new spout and kept the valve as a spare part. Works great! Easy repair, without having to replace the entire faucet. (It's not very expensive as kitchen faucets go, so I might just buy another as a spare. Maybe, I'll have better luck matching the oring next time.)There were some water stains as a result of the leaking. Wrapping a paper towel soaked in lemon juice got rid of those stains pretty easily. A seven year old faucet now looks and works like new!

For anyone looking to buy this product, this faucet works well. I haven't had and leakage or dripping after installation. The color is slightly off from the oil rubbed bronze, but still looks good with my oil rubbed bronze faucet. The color is more solid whereas the main faucet you can notice slight color differences.. As for specifications (I didn't see anything specifically listed at the time of purchase), the inlet to the faucet is 1/4". The product included materials to get it connected, but i did have to get a 3/8" to 1/4" converter to connect it . Also, the kit provides the materials to attach this using 1/4" copper tubing, so make sure to have that or a supply line handy.

High-quality, heavy-weight feel to it. Pleasant styling, smooth movement. I got it for my Reverse Osmosis water filtration system as a kitchen-matching replacement for the cheap-looking faucet that came with the filter. It wasn't clear that it would even be possible, but the specs seemed correct, and it works just fine after all. It's been about 6 months, and so far so good!

Smooth operation and looks very nice with my faucet set.

While it looks good it is not at all easy to install....

No leaks and easy hook up.

The finish is very nice, good quality product
